Now I can make fun of myself....
So I bought a 2007 Mustang V6 Pony car for my daughters graduation. It is "grabber orange" with black stripes. It has 26000 kms and full load of options. Got a good deal and the balance of factory warranty too. So now I have a 370Z AND a Mustang in the driveway!
After delivery with stripe kit! Before delivery...

And now I can't even load pictures from my iPhone. It sucks to be in the field (military training)! I guess pics will have to wait till I have my computer again...

Nothing wrong with having a Mustang in the driveway. Personally I think its a great car for her to learn on enough power to get you into some trouble but at the same time its got enough omph to get you out of trouble (Before someone jumps on me I'm not talking about running cops but avoiding accidents.) She'll learn that she can't go a million miles per hour in the rain. My first car was a Stang so I'm a big fanboy. Good luck with you're military service, get home safe! Hope everything works out well with her new car.

Thanks. I really like the look of the car and it suits her needs well. Enough metal around her to keep her safe and just enough power to have fun and maintain control. I just can't help but want to start modding it though.....

Nothing wrong with a Mustang. It is actually a good product for the price. Plus how cool is she going to look in that Stang?
Congrats to her and you for being the cool father.

She has been working two jobs part time for three years and has been paying all her own costs of insurance and gas in the contour too. In the end she will have about half of the purchase price left to pay me back. I am not giving her a car for free or she would never appreciate it the way she would a car she was paying for. In the end she is getting a nice car and I am getting a responsible daughter. Fair trade I think!

Ya. This thing is in mint stock condition but it just begging for a CAI and a throttle body spacer....
But then I remembered that daddy wants a new CBE for the Z!

Tell her that since you matched her portion of the Mustang, it's only fair that she matches your portion of the CBE for the Z...

V6 Mustangs are great cars for young girls. They always like how they look, they're not powerful enough to get silly with, and they're sporty enough for them to feel like they're having fun.

She is definitely excited about driving this car. I just have to teach her to drive standard first.... She is a good driver so I know she will learn fast.
