re: A recreational car purchase: test drove a 2016 Mustang GT

At least test drive a Camaro. I had a 2010 Camaro 2SS when they first came out, and I also just bought my kid a 2015 Mustang GT. a few months back. While the GT has the edge in horsepower, the Camaro just felt a lot more powerful to me. The Camaro was a manual, while his GT is an auto. The manual is much more fun to drive. The GT is a fine little car, but I'd go Camaro if I were buying for myself.

I wonder what it would cost on the Ford A plan for employee's F&F discount.

For recreation you might want to consider a classic car (yes I watched a lot of Barret Jackson last week). You could get something pretty nice for 30k and fun to drive.

I bought a 2015 in Oct. 2014. Best I could do was xplan though because they were new to market and in short supply. I have done better than x and a plan buying trucks that were plentiful.

I have a '15 GT. Been having it since Nov 14'. Very fun car to drive. Don't regret purchasing it one bit.
Also, if you plan on going F/I (forced-induction) the 5.0 with its much better breathing/higher revving DOHC setup and forged rods can't be beat. Many people with over 700+whp (800+bhp) on 93 octane with the stock block still going strong. Even some with over 900 on E85.

It's whatever you're into. I enjoy being able to work on my own car. Plus, I prefer old steel to new plastic.

I would rather have the challenger. But buy what you want. Screw the haters.

She's a champ. In remission and just completed stem cell transplant last week. Already back home and begged me to pick up my daughter from school today.

Look closer then. It's been packeged as a judge. Took a GTO and made it a "tribute" by decking it out in a judge package.
Still awesome. Especially for 35k.

Excellent.

You can track the hell out of a Miata for cheap and they don't break.
