I never owned american car. But I feel like it might be the time to get one. I also feel like Mustang might be the one to own. I like fun to drive cars, nicely made manual transmissions. I've owned jspaneese and european cars before. Did some autocrossing, but no tracking.
I rented current and previous gen mustangs (AT transmission) and thought they weren't bad, especially the last one. I know next to nothing about mustang ownership experience - how reliable they are and how difficult or easy they are to work on. I typically just pay dealers for repairs if the cost is reasonable, but DIY if it's doable and saves a lot. I prefer long term ownership.
I'm very suspicious to turbos and DI engines based on my previous experience (engine carbonization), so I can rule ecoboost out at least. How good/bad is V6 with mt? Or, should I go GT?
Isn't the last gen too computerized? I didn't like multiple driving and steering mode selections. Things like that might be prohibitively difficult to repair if go bad.
Mustang is not the only candidate, but pretty viable.
