I bought a 2.3 stang brand new in 1985. I have to say it was the best car i ever had. I beat the crap out of it and it never, ever gave me any problems, and it was automatic. It went 170,000 miles and i never even took the valve cover off for any reason. It still ran fine when i sold it. I upgraded to a Gt 5.0 and had nothing but problems. lol. An SVO turbo mustang is a different story though. They were not as reliable. Had lots of friends that had em. They can be finnicky, but are worth alot of money because they are more rare.
