Depending on what you want, this can be very hard for the first time buyer. Obviously the first thing that you need to know is what kind of muscle car you want. Beyond that the more that you can learn that particular car, that better of that you will be.
A sad fact of these days is that there are a lot of people that will rip you off, if you don't know about the car that your looking for. Get a book about the car that you have decided that you'd like to have, read the book and learn all you can about the car.
Take a notebook when you go to look at the cars, the reason that I say cars, is that you should look at more then one of them. In the notebook you'll take notes to help you decide on the car that you want. You will write down the engine casting numbers, RPO codes, transmission codes, and rear end codes.
You should always jot down the vin code also, these numbers will help you decide if you want to buy a car, or if you need to keep looking. When trying to locate your first classic car, or muscle car, you should never act to excited as you look at the cars.
Acting overly excited will make it easier for a scammer to rip you off. Play it off like you have two or three of them located, and now your trying to decide between them. This will put you on top in the negotiation process, rather then the person selling the car.
When trying to locate my first classic car, or muscle car, the more things that I put in my favor, the better. Don't feel like your lying to them, believe me, they would do the same thing. Now let's talk money, and how much of it to start with.
First of all let's get the notion of buying a classic car, or muscle car in good condition for $2,500. This very rarely happens these days, and when it does it's just pure luck. You should plan on spending about $10,000 to get a good starter car.
When I say a good starter car, I mean a car without a lot of rust, and not bad as far as dents in either. I don't mean a perfect car, so now that we have that out of the way, as you look at these cars you should be taking a lot of notes in your notebook.
In the end you can compare these notes to see which car is the best one to start with. You should compare price, condition of the cars, and if the car is exactly what your looking for. You should buy the one with the least problems, that is the closest to exactly what your looking for.
If your planning to build a show car out of this car, you'll need to be a lot pickier then if it's a daily driver. Take a lot of notes on the condition of the body, the interior, electrical, and mechanical parts of the car, the list should end up telling you which car is the best for the money.
You should always plan to do some restoration work on the car, these are old cars, and usually need some love. When locating my first classic car, or muscle car I always pay attention to the to the details. The fine detail can save you a lot of money in the end.
By fine details I mean does it have the engine that it came with from the factory? Does it have the transmission that it came with from the factory? If you look for these kinds of things, you can save a lot of money when it comes time to restore the car.
If you just take your, and move a long slow and easy, you should get just the right classic car, or muscle car for you. But this is all about how you do it, use the notebook and write down everything that you find that is, or isn't like it should be, and the moon is yours.
I've been in the automotive business for about 20 or 25 years, I have worked in all facets of the industry, from parts to restoration, all different makes and models, I just want to keep people interested in the old cars because it's where my heart is.
Caddy Circa 2012: What We Can Expect
Receiving an invite to this year’s NAIAS from General Motors was a fantastic opportunity for me. The icing on the cake were the many personal and group interviews with GM executives who shared with me/us their knowledge including some product plans over the next few years.
Although I met with Saturn, Hummer and Saab execs face-to-face, my greatest interest was in what Cadillac was doing. I have been watching Cadillac’s progress closely, particularly over the past few years, and I like what I see.
Cadillac’s Good Name Has Been Restored
Cadillac’s good name has been restored and the future looks bright, especially if they stay on the path they have taken. With GM, there is always a danger that someone/somewhere will make a stupid decision such as taking a basic model from another GM division, dressing it up, and selling it as a Cadillac. Rumors that GM is planning to do this with one of its crossovers has me a bit distressed — let’s hope that someone has some sense and helps Caddy stay the course.
Tracking the Changes Through 2012
Over the next few years Cadillac will see some important changes including the following:
DTS and STS — Cadillac’s two largest cars will be replaced by one model and that will be a rear wheel drive derivative of the platform powering the Pontiac G8 and Chevy Camaro. Although the car will be heavier than the present DTS (raising CAFE concerns) what Cadillac will do elsewhere in their line up will offset this change.
CTS — The sedan will be updated for the 2013 model year and will include a coupe if it hasn’t already found its way in by 2010. The CTS-V will march on, a limited-production signature car for the popular CTS series.
BLS — I don’t expect that the BLS name will survive, but when the compact BLS (pictured) is updated for the European market in 2011, that car will arrive in the US to compete against the BMW 1-Series and the Mercedes A Class. Look for this truly baby Cadillac to power sales over the next decade, especially if a fuel-saving diesel variant is included.
SRX Crossover — This is where things get murky. Will GM simply rebadge another brand’s crossover and sell it as a Cadillac or will the SRX continue in its current form? My guess is that sense will win and the SRX will remain part of the Caddy line up, a derivative of the CTS.
Escalade — It is big, burly, thirsty and full of bling. The Escalade along with the DTS are the two most popular Cadillacs on the market. As long as someone wants to shell out money for a big SUV, Cadillac will stay in the game. Look for a nice update for the 2012 model year with a viable diesel option in play. The EXT and ESV will be continued as long as demand is present.
XLR Roadster — This car will continue in production as long as Chevrolet has the Corvette, which means forever. However, IF Cadillac’s CAFE numbers tend to slip, the XLR will be killed-off, particularly if overall demand slips too.
Beyond what has been mentioned, I expect that fuel cell improvements, ethanol, and plug-in hybrids will be found throughout the Cadillac fleet beginning in the early part of the next decade. Look for the “new” BLS and the DTS/STS replacement to advance the quality standards found in the CTS, giving consumers all the more reason to consider Cadillac.

What is the average lifespan of these cars?
I'm thinking of buying and I was wondering what the average life expectency of these cars are. Assume they are all in fair condition and have had relatively regular repairs and oil changes. (AKA: Don't just tell me that it depends on how well kept the are. I want numbers please.)
Mid 90s Camaro
Mid 90s Mustang
Late 90s Grand Am
Early 90s BMW E36
If I think of more, I'll post them.
seems that most of your list have already met their life expectancy. and if you live in the south you'll know that these cars have already rotted away. good luck
Mustang ad blitz aims to beat Camaro:
