There is a lot to think about when the time comes to buy a car. You need to know what kind of vehicle you’re getting, how reliable it is, the mileage and the safety equipment it’ll have makes a big difference also. When first starting out, you need to know the costs for general maintenance your vehicle will need, and the price of insurance that you will have to pay. Even the gas mileage makes a difference for a person who wants to spend their money on better things, than always filling the tank. People want to get good deals on the vehicles that they buy, and so doing a little research to make your dollar count is usually recommended. I am going to research a 1967 Pontiac GTO in generally fair condition that a man is trying to sell for $4500. As a first-time buyer, I will check out some of the optional equipment, mileage and the reliability of the car; while checking up on other cars around the same condition that are for sale, as well as explore the safety equipment that the cars had. I will figure the costs of maintaining the car, keeping it in good running condition, and the average amount I’d pay for gas each time I filled the tank. Also, Insurance is also something I will have to look into as I am

16 years of age, and need auto-insurance to legally drive in the state of Oregon. Mechanics say that if the car is well kept, and the owner is on top of everything, then age shouldn’t matter on the reliability. ) the retail value for a ’67 Goat in this condition would classify under low retail value, which states to be $7,925. Some people would rather have more safety equipment in their vehicle, in case of a collision, but personally, I don’t mind this limited amount of safety equipment. So I would be pretty well off saying that I’d pay at least $175.
To insure my 1967 Pontiac GTO at age 16, it would cost me around $1,200 a year for a comp and collision policy. We need to check out the safety equipment, and the car’s general reliability. Some other deals I looked at was a 1967 GTO with a custom stereo system put into it, and was close to mint condition sold at $32,000 online at Automainia. Having a mechanic look at everything is a good idea, to know the condition of the engine, transmission, steering, wheels, fuel and exhaust. The mileage is also unbelievable, it’s at 100,500 original miles, where is should have somewhere around 400,000 miles at age 35.
The first vital thing when looking at a car is to know what it is and it’s value. 25 is to be added to the low retail price of this car, and with the 4spd transmission, another $1,188.
