Subject: Buying a new car
Newsgroups: net.auto

I'm probably buying a new car this summer, and I'm strongly
considering a Mustang or Capri.  I am concerned about gas
milage, but also safety, reliablity, and to some extent,
performance.  That is, I dont want a sports car, but I'd like
decent performance as well.  I would probably get the 2.3L
four with a 5 speed (anyone know the mpg figures for the 6?).
I have talked to some friends who have one, and say the are
fairly pleased with it.  Anyone here have any good or bad
experiences with this model line?  Also, what options would
you folks recommend?  I'm willing to consider other cars in the
same price/performance range, but prefer American.  I am 
not all that knowledgable about cars, so any help would
greatly be appreciated.
