I challange you to a duel!
Any car? So you are saying the POP can you want to buy will be worth Half H A L F in 2 years? WOW bold prediction fella!
Listen your not picking up what I'm laying down man!!!! Your willing to put roughly $2000 in a Mustang GT in mods but you don't want to pay for gas? Wheres the logic.
Pontiac GTO 2004 @MSRP $22632 2006 MSRP $31290. UM that looks like 1 doesn't it?
Now can you make that claim about a TC?
Ford Focus 2004 MSRP@ $10630 2006 MSRP $15260 2007 MSRP @ $15285.
THAT Fella is just 1 example of over half and that took about 6 minuts of research. It was not forgienazition (sp) of US made cars infiltrated by a biased country on American made products. IF you were any kind of American at all you would look the whole gas saving market over before you ran to Toyota for a great resale value car. I sure you'd be suprised at what you find!
But hey if you wanna jump on the Forgien bandwagon so you can have that way cool TC go for it man. Its your move just don't get all threatened by the fact someone has something to say about it. There are lots of cars out there that will hold the value its folks like you who hate on the US made cars that bring the value down.
I've made my point now WHAT IS YOURS?

Its true.......traded my GT for a tc.....I am still in shock. I feel great relief on my budget.....(I had a lot of equity in the stang and was able to cash out $ 10800 for credit card debt) and at the pump.( about 10mpg better). If I can get my finance's straight, I will buy an 08 or 09, or maybe even a clean 05 GT Vert speed. Time will tell. Anyway I have some parts for sale. GT 500 Chrome rims with low milage 285/40 255/45 rubber, and 18" factory pollished bullits with about 6k miles they are perfect. Also SCT Xcal 2 , Tuneable Induction Intake, and off road xpipe and off road h pipe. PM me or call at 501- 658-2000
Thanks,Good Luck, and God Bless

RE: Bye sweet stang.....
Nice job answering the questions! Really great.
third msrp hasnt got anything to do with resale value
First off did you bump your head? Second did it hurt? and third do your realize what you said with the bumped head babble goin on? MSRP has nothing to do with resale value? WOW you are incredible, How do you think car dealers and third party sellers get the pricing? Yes there may be some fluxuation but it is suggested retail price which is a starting point!
I see none of this in your statements only opinion and you know what they say about opinions, good luck with your forgien car I hope its everything you wanted, I'm sure you'll look like granpa fuelsaver in you new TC.

But when changes are due to a new arrival you are best to cut out the biggest expenses. And that means get rid of everything you owe on or pay for besides your house. (car, certain magazines you only glance at, newspaper). Yeah, you can imagine my girl gets crazy about my money managing... But hey, if it works, it works.

there is another post from him that he bought a 2006 GT and won't be selling any of the parts.

Oh, that sucks. He could have atleast contacted me back to tell me so I could purchase one elsewhere.

RE: Bye sweet stang.....
Rmays06 You're a tool.
If half as many people had Hogs sense they wouldn't be in over their eyeballs in debt with a negative net worth.
I doubt you yourself have any net worth and if I have to explain it to you I rest my case. He sold the stang to cash out and pay off his credit card debt. Average CC rate is what..10%? Don't give me some BS about getting a card with 0% or you're a prime example of why they offer them. Do you even have a clue what your credit score is?
While it sucks he had to get rid of his stang, If it's a positive financial decision then I for one am not going to question or give him flack for it. He's got a family and personally a stang sucks for driving more than two people around. a TC may not be much better but his payments are lower, I guarantee his insurance is lower, and arguably he has a more reliable car.
To answer your questions Why do you think american cars have the worst resale value??? Reliability. So you buy a Ford F-150 for 35K and A Nissan Titan for 33K, I gurantee the Nissan will have a higher resale value in 1-5 or more years because of one major thing. Reliability. Next argument regarding fluctuation...Yeah..Uh poor reliability and crappy gas mileage along with the publics view of a particular make car = ****ty resale that's a HUGE fluctuation. A 2000 Honda Civic is worth more than my 2000 Mustang Or have you not checked the papers recently?
You must still in college because you're defenitely not living in the real world. I love my Mustang but I'm not blind. It's a car, get over it. [>:]

Any car? So you are saying the POP can you want to buy will be worth Half H A L F in 2 years? WOW bold prediction fella!
Listen your not picking up what I'm laying down man!!!! Your willing to put roughly $2000 in a Mustang GT in mods but you don't want to pay for gas? Wheres the logic.
Pontiac GTO 2004 @MSRP $22632 2006 MSRP $31290. UM that looks like 1 doesn't it?
Now can you make that claim about a TC?
Ford Focus 2004 MSRP@ $10630 2006 MSRP $15260 2007 MSRP @ $15285.
THAT Fella is just 1 example of over half and that took about 6 minuts of research. It was not forgienazition (sp) of US made cars infiltrated by a biased country on American made products. IF you were any kind of American at all you would look the whole gas saving market over before you ran to Toyota for a great resale value car. I sure you'd be suprised at what you find!
