hi, my names Erich, im 17 and i cant choose between buying a 6 G celica or a mustang..either '89-'93 GT or '99-'04 GT. im kinda stuck..ive always wanted a mustang..but the celicas are really appealing to me now. i would want either of the cars to go fast..but i would want to work on it my own..and build it to be fast..which models should i be looking at?.i have roughly for a spending limit. i want a maual tranny too. i'll take ANY suggestions!..thanks.

Hey im 17 too and i bought my car last year when i was 16. i paid for it with my own money and i'll tell you, it feels good to know you got it with yur own hard work. Mustangs are fast, most of the guys at my school has them, but when it comes down to looks and reliability..any toyota (or japanese car) will be good for that. However, just be careful when you buy your car. I made the mistake of not taking the car to have a mechanic look at it before i bought it, my dad thought it was good, and so did i. little did we know that this car was about to leak oil, the suspension is giving out...and so much more. i wish i had a celica in better condition, but hey..that can be fixed. good luck man!
