coming back-?'s
Hey guys, I had a 95 mustang gt for about 6 months back in the day. It was ok until winter hit, then could'nt move in the snow and had to get rid of it. I got a 98 eclipse, then the 04 nissan spec v I drive now. I was thinking of trading in for the wrx for the awd in winter or possibly the new gencoupe coming out from hyundai. Now that the mustang has been updated it looks like a possibility. The styling and interior are better and a small bump in hp, plus I love the new dark blue and dark red (I always wanted the lazor red of the stang, but ended up getting white), although I really wanted gray or black for my next car. Anyway, I may be looking at the new mustang, but it still may be a little too expensive. Looks like it will be at least 30k as I want the leather interior and it looks like you have to get the premium to get that. But my uncle works for ford so I should be able to get the a-plan discount, which is what maybe 2k off? Plus I "should" get 3-4k out of my trade-in or else I'll just wait another year until its paid off. So if I could pull off around 25k, it may be tempting, probably right around the same price as the coupe or wrx. I'm still worried about gas mileage and winter driving though. I've heard the newer cars are better with the better front-to-back weight balance and traction control. What do you guys think, not a good car in the snow and gas mileage compared to the others I'm considering is down slightly?

thanks, that does'nt sound that bad if it works out. I just hope I can hold out until spring or summer and not gett a wrx before then as they just got a premium one in. I really would like the windshield de-icer and heated seats for the winter. Its a blue one though and I see too many of them around that color. It would have to be gray or black. btw, Anybody have any experience driving the 05-09 in the winter? How does it do? I'm sure snow tires would help...
