I'm 32, full time good job but supporting a stay at home mom and kid and a new mortgage.
My first car was an S10 from my grandfather that had no AC. My second was a 1996 Nissan Altima with the airbags blown out and boiled looking paint job. 3rd is my current wifes hand me down 2003 Saturn L300 that is on it's last leg.
I just want a cool, zippy, daily driver that doesn't break the bank. I love 80's style camaros and foxbody mustangs but those aren't exactly cheap or daily driver able.
IT'S MY TURN /O/ IT'S MY TURN MY STUPID WIFE GOT HER DUMB SEABRING CONVERTABLE THAT HANDLES LIKE A BOAT.

Why not?
Either get what you want or embrace the boat.

Ford ZX2 with a manual?

>Wife got Sebring convertible
You're getting cucked Anon
All seriousness though, MS3 or MS6
>32 years old
>considers a Fox body or Turd gen not cheap
I really hope this is a troll.
Or better yet Pontiac Vibe GT. 189 HP to front wheels through a 6-speed but looks like an unremarkable mom hatchback. Front wheel drive burnouts for days.

He might live in the rust belt where any reasonable ones rotted away years ago and all that's left are I KNOW WHAT I GOT, NO LOW BALLERS NO TEST DRIVES NO BLACKS.

Actually I meant in the way of repairing them for daily driving.
I live in Shreveport LA, there are more Mustangs here than people. Not so many 3rd gen's.
You're a 32 year old man, there's plenty of nice family cars out there that don't suck.
Mercedes AMG, BMW M series cars, Pontiac G8, Chevy SS, Charger SRT, Cadillac CTS-V.
All can be 4 door for muh "practicality", and all of them are pretty fun in their own way. There's tons more too.
If you can't get them because your wife won't let you or some stupid shit, then man up. You shouldn't be letting your wife tell you what to do unless she has some damn good fucking reasoning behind her argument.

So i don't mean to be a dick, but you done fucked up. She either has no respect for you, or you know nothing about cars.. which would warrant her lack of respect.
What is your budget and location? My wife is a stay at home mom, our kid is in private school, two mortgages so i know what life is like on a budget, my cars are generally in the 2000 to 3000 range and i get about 100,000 miles or more out of them.
Id get an mx-5, or an e36 if you can find a good one, e34 535 is also great.
