Default Need Opinions

Hey guys, I need some opinions. I have a 08 PP 4.0, i was really thinking of getting a s/c soon but then i see there giving the GT's away at my local dealer and i also like the 2010 model as well..My Question is should i trade up my 4.0 for a GT , witch i will deff take a lose just dont know how or wait till the 2010 Comes out or get the S/c? Im really just cunfused need some opinons..I know if i try to trade my car in im gonna get raped but also there discounting the GT's so it works both ways. Just not sure what a better wrote throwing all my money into my sixxer or just get the GT and start from there but the question is how much of a hit am i gonna take. thanks guys

Only one way to check is go in and see what they are offering you... the way the economies going you never know.. could end up with some similar payments..

*Little update* i only went to the local dealer by me since its near closing time, they offerd me 13K, when he said that i nearler laughted in his face,but i keeped it inside and they was gonna give me a 09 GT fairly equipped MSRP 32K 25K out the door tax and tags
they had the bullit for 27 out the door i was really eyeing that one but i would be so much upside down it would be crazy. Off to the next Dealer!

You should be seeing them cheaper.. keep looking man and dont let them hassle you, they are the ones looking for government bailout, not you hopefully..

i agree. if the difference is one or two thousand, definitely upgrade to the gt. if it's more, turbo or s/c what you have; that way you would have more of a 'sleeper' car

for sure wait until the 2010s come out!!! dont get an 08 or 09 bc in 6 months youll be beating yourself up when someone pulls up next to you at a red light with a 2010! youll be like "crap, that coulda been me" dont get me wrong, i love the s197 mustangs,i have one, but buying a brand new 09 when itll be the old body style in 6 months is not a good idea. just keep what you have and when the 2010s come out, see if theyll give you a decent amount off.....and if not, THEN i guess it would be fine to get an 09 gt bc theyll be A LOT cheaper then. ohh and dont supercharge a v6...a gt with intake and tune will beat you still. most def not worth it

IMO if you have the money for a Supercharger and you like your ride, I'd go with that. If you take a hit with the GT with a discount you'll still be par with all the other GT's. Your 6 SC would separate you from the boys.

id haggle the **** out of some dealers. they will came way down in price. i bet you can pick up a gt as low as $20,000 the rate Ford is going. might not have all the options tho.
