I agree with this guy, but at the same time, it sounds like you bought a car you can't afford. If you're stuck living with your parents at 21 because you can't afford to move out, then perhaps you should have bought something a bit more... used. I personally waited until my house was paid off, and I had enough money in the bank to write a check for my car. I'm 23, and I came from nothing. Believe me, if I can do it, anyone can.

If your girlfriend wants to move out of her parents house, she should go ahead and do it. If she can't afford it without you, she should stay home too.

One other consideration: As soon as that new car roles off the lot, it starts losing value. In most cases, it loses value faster than the loan value is paid off for the first year or two (unless you had a large downpayment). If you sell or trade in that time period, you'll lose your shorts.
Unless you absolutely positively can't afford to make the payments, you're better off keeping the car until you can sell it for more than the amount you owe on it (and that will take a couple of years, maybe longer).
There are ways to do both (keep car and move), by saving on day-to-day costs, by taking on a second part-time job, or both. When a person truly wants to do something, they find a way to do it.

I hate to say it, but no car should ever come between you and a better life. Even if that car is a Mustang.
I just bought my new 07 V6five months ago. I was actually looking for a economical carwith low payment & great gas mileage- something to fit my tight budget - but was fortunate enough to get my Stang and still afford to pay my bills and keep my fiance happy, LOL.
Use your money to better your living conditions, shore up your relationship and then when the time is right, get a new Mustang to throw all your love into.
You wont regret it. I didn't. :-)
PS: is this girl your with "the one". Are you 2 super serious?Cause if not, then forget what I said and keep the car!

yeah, its going on almost 2 years. pretty much looking like we're getting married sometime in the future. but yeah, my reasoning about this isn't juuuust for her, its for us, and myself. even if I lost her, I still want to move out myself.

Life is full of compromises, nobody here (myself included) knows how much you really love your car or your gf, or the way you feel, or why she wants to move out,let alone the details of your relationship. Just a theoretical example ifmygfwants to move out because her parents are abusive, and I love herI'd sell my soul tosatanto get her out of there, if on the other hand she wants to move out because of selfish convinience, I'd keep my car, so everything is relative to the circumstances.
At the end of the day it must be your decision, and my piece of advice is that whatever your decision is, dont look back in the future just to regret what you did, because it is not only worthless but will make you very unhappy.
