Hi, in about a year I will be buying my first car. I am a teen boy, so the first thing in my mind is SPEED, of course I am reasonable and am open to other idea's. What I am looking for is something somewhat reliable, around maybe 20mpg or in that range(at least that, of course more mpg would be better). I will be using it mostly commuting to school and work, which isn't that far. I'm thinking of buying a car with at most 70k miles? I have no clue honestly, but I want it to be able to last for a while(3-4+ years). So I was thinking a mustang 04' or older, no preference on whether its stick or auto. Also was thinking of buying a small truck like a ford ranger that is a 4x4. Or an older bmw :) haha cant have everything but that's why i'm asking for others opinions. Like I said i'm open to opinions and other ideas, hope you can help. :) Ok I know this is a lot all in one, but maybe give me idea's for each type of cars I want? and maybe some over all advice?

When you buy an used car you need to consider two things mainly. First, look at the interior of the car and make sure that it is fine, then don't forget to check the paint works of the car.
