Default what one?

im 16 and looking for a first car, if i was to get a camaro not full insurade how much a month wouold you guess it would cost?
and now to the real question,

alright, i need help choosing between two cars (camaro,mustang)both are 2,700 obo.

First
1996 camaro(3800 v6) **200 hp**
130K miles nothings wrong with this car at all,
newer water pump new alternator and new fuel pump
t-tops,bose sound system,tinted windows,



OR

1994 mustang(v6)**146 hp**
113k miles,
rt fender has damage but it is all cosmetic, and the windshield has a crack
had trans replaced a year or so ago.


i need help what one seems better, and on a side note, my grandpa use to work for chevy and use to own a camaro so he knows just about everything about them so engine work would most likely be easy for me. please help me,
thanks,
josh...

Its really up to you. You asked this at a Camaro site, so naturally you will get the Camaro answer. But really, its up to you, which do you like better?

ill get the camaro...you get more bang for your buck i mean. 200hp..54 more hp than the mustang, the camaro has t-tops, bose sterio and a bunch of new stuff..it might have more miles on it but the 3800's are good motors. if you get the camaro you need to do 1 thing...get that damn bra of the poor car...i would get 4th gen corvette zr1 rims but thats just me....all and all i would go for the camaro.

umm the rest of my family uses statefarm, or something. cause they give you a discount if you have a high gpa and if you do this safe driver log book for a month they take more money off. now sence the camaro has 130k is 2,600 a good price or should i try to get him to lower it. what would you guys offer him?

Go with the Camaro. Insurance is probably gonna be about the same since they are both sports cars with v-6's. Welcome to the Forum... if you buy the Camaro. If you decide to go with the Mustang... Welcome anyway...

It depends if you are going to stay on your parents insurance or go it alone also your grades can be a factor in the price. For example we bought my son a 2005 cobalt insurance with the good grade discount was 105.00 a month, once he was out of school and out of my house it jumped to 235.00 per month. one other thing you can do is have you on as only a part time driver of the car and use your mom or dad as the primerary diver that would reduce the amount that you would need to pay.
