Hi. About 2 months ago, I posted a message about purchasing a 5.0. That was when I really wasnt that serious about buying yet. However, I am getting pretty serious now, and am going to take the plunge the first week in July and get a 5.0. I was wondering if you all think I can find a decent car in the price range up to about $3500. If so, will I be able to find one with a 5 spd? In decent shape? Running decent? Should I be afraid of mods such as exhaust not being installed right, etc? What are some signs i should look for? Sorry about all of the questions, I just would like some advice from some folks who own one of these bad boys. I would really appreciate all of your input. Thanks alot for your time.

**Also, do you think the insurance will kill me? Im only 16.**

Thanks,
Jason
