What's up all!

I am currently interested in getting rid of my wifes SUV and picking up a New Mustang. I really want a Cobra or SE, but I am worried about using it as an everyday driver. My drive to work everyday is about 60 miles roundtrip. I am worried about overabusing the car with this long drive. Money is not a problem, except that I can't afford 3 cars. Sooooooo...Should I wait for an SVT or should I set my sights on a GT? Any advice is great. Thanks.

Wait for the SE or SVT edition! Abuse shouldn't be an issue, as Mustangs are usually pretty reliable cars in any form.

People drive Mercedes and BMWs everyday that cost more than the Cobra will, so I wouldn't worry about it.

Thanks. That is exactly what I wanted to hear.

By the way, I have been hovering around here for a couple weeks and this is a pretty sweet site.

Welcome. I don't think you have anything to worry about using it as a daily driver. Regular Maintenance is the key.
