Trading '11 or '12 for '13? - The Mustang Source

RedCandy5.0 · 2/3/12, 3:22 PM

Anyone think they may trade up?

Double-EDad · 2/3/12, 3:30 PM

Having made the move from '11 to '12 this past June, I've played out my cards for awhile. Sticking with my modded-for-me '12. After all, I just got it the way I like it! :-)

If I do trade up it will be for a 2011 GT500 used that they have on the lot at my local dealer.
$45k with 14mi (White with Grabber Stripes & NAV)

I think I saw that one on eBay. Grabber inserts on the seats too?

I'm moving up. Getting rid of the '11 CS/GT for a '13 GT500 pending the car and options aren't ridiculously marked up. Might have to take a trip and talk to Brian or Jeff If I can't work a deal here in TX....lol

Wow, that is a great price but how is it used with 14 miles?

2012GTCS · 2/3/12, 6:54 PM

Still haven't decided especially when I find out they are probably going to give me 8000 less then I paid when it only has 1800 miles on a 2012.

So technically for an equivalent 13 I'd have to she'll out another 8000. Coulda had a 12 boss.

I meant 14,000 miles.
It is nice, but for the extra $10k I could add a killer SC and do some more with this one and be just if not more satisfied!

Boy oh boy, you sure go through them real fast. What will your next trade up be after your GT500 gets you tired? Lambo G car? lol

no way would I get a Lambo!!

PJRManagement · 2/3/12, 11:46 PM

No way. Love my 2011 too much, and I get so many thumbs up. Plus I still have the rear wing and front spoiler to add on (does it ever really end??!!) Besides, it took me almost five years to convice the Mrs. to allow me to get mine!!!

My finances are good. Getting one now to pay it off so I can get a new house in 5 years.

I just finished paying child support that was like a mortgage payment for the past 12 years!! I've helped put two girls thru college. Finances were good before but now I see this as my opportunity to get my "retirement" present to myself soon and have it paid off BEFORE I retire.

Not sure if I will sell or keep the Boss yet but I know I WILL have a 2011 - 2013 GT500 in my garage in the not too distant future.

Dude, I feel your pain & joy. Just finished paying almost 17 years of child support myself, and you are right in that it's like having another full mortgage. That's a big reason I took the plunge after driving 100k+ mile beaters forever.

But now my man is in college and I still am covering half of that plus I have 2 more age 9 & 12 to plan for (I remarried in '94). So I feel doggone lucky to have my GT. And I still keep that beater handy. It's fun having a car u don't have to fuss over, and it makes me appreciate the GT all the more.

couldn't see trading in an '11-'12 for a '13.. mite as well wait for a '15.

2012GTCS · 2/4/12, 11:42 AM

Yeah ill probably wait for the 15s

Joe_in_Naples · 2/4/12, 11:54 AM

Going to keep my 11 for a few years then hopefully upgrade to a 10 GT500.
