Hi. I'm new to the forum and new to purchasing a mustang. About a year ago I had the opportunity to choose a 2011 Mustang Convertible for my vacation rental--and I fell in love with this car. I loved the pick up (my first car was a Trans Am and it reminded me of that). It handled incredibly well.
I now have an opportunity to buy a 2010 Mustang Convertible. It's the color I want and the price is right ($16K) but the mileage is high (37,000 miles).
My questions:
1) Is this car just as good as the 2011? I am a girl and simply like to drive fast. I have no idea about torque or engine ratings or any of that. I just want to know if there is anything fundamental to the 2010 version that I will miss when I press my foot to the pedal or hug turns.
2) What can I expect to have to do maintenance-wise on a car with this type of mileage? In other words, what can I expect to break down first and what might I need to pay attention to?
Thanks so much!
