I spent under $3500 total including the purchase price of the car to run a 13.991 with horrible wheel hop on street tires, now i'm getting serious and bought $2000 worth of stuff and should be able to hit 12's with slicks....then i'm getting a nitrous system on top of that. I've had no problems other than a bad alternator wire, which was a bad connection at the alternator (stator wire i think) anyway, i've had 3 mustangs and i've loved them all and i'd say if you get one with relatively lower mileage or mostly highway mileage you'll be fine.
Good luck on your purchase!
