A friend of mine is considering buying a relatively low mileage V6 Mustang. She is on a pretty tight budget of around $5k, and for whatever reason she likes the Mustang. Her biggest concern is reliability, she can't afford to spend much money on repairs that might be required in the future. What is the reliability of those cars, and how expensive are parts?

Parts are cheap but she will needs lots of them.

Good luck to her.

If she is on tight budget, don't get the Stang, I hear nothing but complaints on that generation from my clients who have them.

Good news, she test drove the car and decided against it.

The car must have been falling apart during the test drive

I had an 04 V6, and although it was cheap she never let me down

Actually consumer reports ranks the mustang as a pretty reliable car. I was surprised.
