I bought my first car earlier this year; purchased a 2000 V6 manual transmission. Overall it is in good condition and previous owner took good care of it (I'm the second owner). Does have a few problems that needs to get address as time carries on. I hope to ask some questions later in the forums; i want some help about first mods and repairs. When I first purchase it, the throw out bearing and 5th syncro had to be replaced. I still have minor problems with the transmission but been manageable. I do enjoy driving it. Especially when it comes to passing slow drivers that going 45~50mph in 55 speed limits or always slow down around corners (i can't stand that!). Before I drove a 2000 Ranger XLT V6 but i wouldn't dare pass people above 45mph; poor accerlation at higher speeds. But the stang, i can be driving at 60mph and it still accelerates without any problems swiftly.
Cheers!
