Hey guys, my name is James and i'm from San Diego. I'm 17 and going to be a senior in high school.

Just today i bought this:

http://sandiego.craigslist.org/car/380488860.html

The car is gonna remain at the seller's house until monday when my dad can get his money transferred. Then we're taking it to a mechanic on Monday to check it out more thoroughly. We drove it around and checked it out.. it's a beautiful car.

And i'm just learning manual so any tips would be appreciated

awsome man, seems like a rather good deal, just be safe tho - 17 had my testosterone blazing my tires at every stop sign back when my car was relitively stock - and yours has more power stock so just be smart man. Im moving down to SD this september to transfer to UCSD, maybe i'll see ya around (you'll proly hear me commin)

BTW, theres plenty of CA-mustang meets in the SD area if you like BBQ and hang out w/ fellow stangers: http://www.ca-mustangs.com/forums/index.php

Respect the power of a v8. Don't be dickin around on the streets. Race on the strip, and only on the strip!
