any regrets?
Do you guys ever have regrets about buying your stang? I love the car but every now and then I run accross something and think to myself "man...I should have bought one of those" My wife and I were at the stealership the other day just looking around wasting time and we came accross an 03 lightning for $21,000 and a 04 C5 vette for $29,000. I was very tempted to trade the stang in on one of those but my wife didnt think it was a good idea. After I got home and thought about it I realized that I almost made a big mistake. Do you guys ever think that you make a mistake buying a new mustang?

RE: any regrets?
I wish i would have waited till about right now to order my stang sometimes. As i had a 02 Chevy Cav, with only 60,000 miles (when i traded, now it would have been 75,000), i didnt NEED to sell it, but i decided to because the extra money would be even more i could put down. i could buy a beater now, its not like i'm hurting, but i bought the cav with only 2,000 miles on it, so i had taken good care of it...ran well. i couldnt find something now for what i sold mine for and know how well it was taken care of. It would have been nice to have for winter driving. oo-well...live and learn...another thing, i dont know what i'd be paying for insurance on both too, if i had both...if i would have waited, i could have saved more and kept the payments to what they are now...

Nope! I want to down the road upgrade to a GT or Mach1 when they come out. I love my car and have no doubts that this is by far the best car I've ever owned. I guess for most once the Mustang gets you it'll never let go.

A guy at work asked me this just today, AAMOF. And I told him, not one, no buyer's remorse, no regret. It does suck that it will soon be in the garage and I'll be driving my '01 Expedition for the winter, but hey...

RE: any regrets?
yes....I REGRET IT.....reason is there are so many awesome mods available for this car that I cant stop...it is very addictive...actually if you could not tell...dont regret one bit...but will say for the record that mods are addictive and the mustang should come with a label at purchase sort of like
WARNING> THE SURGEON GENERAL HAS DETERMINED THAT BUYING A S197 MUSTANG HAS BEEN PROVEN TO BE ADDICTIVE>> SYMPTOMS OF ADDICTION INCLUDE UNCONTROLLABLE SMILING> HAPPINESS AND OVERALL TESTOSTERONE LEVEL INCREASE IN MALES> IT HAS ALSO BEEN KNOW TO INCREASE BLOOD FLOW AND HAPPINESS IN FEMALE OWNERS AS WELL> In tests on LAB MALES AND FEMALES THE S197 has also contributed to a major decrease in bank accounts and increase in credit cards as mods have prevailed. It is strongly advised that all S197 Mustang Owners be aware of these risks before proceeding with ownership.....
I think Ford needs to admit the truth above and acknowledge this serious problem
