find a used 350z, you can easily get one for under 25000.

It's like 175 hp, but it's under 25K new and kinda cool. The new Saturn Sky coming out. It's a roadster. My Dad might get one, but he's been laid off a while and I got college so I doubt it. It's cool though.

lol, comparing a Honda to a Mustang in reliability is no match. A properly done turbo kit will be very reliable. I drove my turbo GSR for 2 or 3 years without a single problem besides a loose chargepipe every now and than. Even though I'm looking to buy a Mustang the image of my friend's 86' Mustang catching on fire and burning to the ground is a constant reminder of how well the Mexicans build Fords
