20 here

(16 yrs old) First car i had was given by my grandma, a 2005 honda accord sedan V-TEC was the SHIZNIT!!!!

Then when i turned 17 i was goin to work on the navy base and saw this 02 black mustang gt for sale on the lot. Went up to it, called the owner, called my gparents and we worked out a deal right then and there. I drove the rest of the way to work in my new car. Lawd i loved that thing!

Then on sept 7 2011 a guy ran a stop aign and ended its life. I was 18.

10 days later i used the insurance check for my totaled car as a down payment on a brand new 2012 base model v6. Shes been rear ended, side swiped, all kinds of stuff. And she always comes back for more. I love this car but i really dont wanna start dumpin money into her until i get back into a v8

62 years old and retired this past May.
My 2014 Mustang is my first american sports car. Test drove a used Boxster then drove the new Mustang a few months back. Was looking for a toy and track day car. The Mustang engine blew me away but the suspension not so much. But the rest of the track pack car plus an aftermarket suspension is all I needed to make for lots of smiles.
At 6'5" tall I also liked finding a car I fit in comfortably after cramming myself into many European sports cars over the years.

Mine had a 400 in it and I bought it with 136,000 miles on it. My work supervisor and I ended up putting some rod bearing in it because of a rod knock. I drove it for two years until I got my 70 Monte and then finally sold it in 1989 when I graduated from college. It still ran fine when I sold it but I don't remember how many miles it had on it then.
