My 2008 now has 83,000 on it. Yes, I drive a lot. There have been no problems with the car and I haven't done the maintenance schedule intervals. I have that itch also for buying the 2011 V6 Mustang but, I told myself I want to get 200,000-300,000 miles on this car before I get another. I've got a long way to go.

For you, it depends on how bad you have that new car itch, whether you can afford it and do you really think it's worth it. Having the latest and greatest is great but, after splurging, many feel like they should have kept what they had because it's not "that big" of a difference. Go test drive one and see if it is "that big" of a difference to you.

 

Thanks guys. I test drove a charger srt8. It was pretty cool. So I wanted a nice fast 4 door. But I can always wait a year and keep mine. Then I will own it. Then. Buy a 4 door

 

Look into the CTS-V's. I bought one about a month back. The 1st generations can be had from 19-27k depending on mileage. They handle GREAT, super comfy ride, have all the nice features like HID lights, heated seats, navigation, Sat radio, and they come with a 6-speed and 400hp Z06 motor.

 

Are you having issues with it? Whay are you concerned about turning 100,000 miles? I know it's a domestic vehicle but their quality seems to have improved over the years. Since I don't evn THINK about trading in one of my Toyotas until I turn 200,000 miles (5 so far over 200,000 and another that I still own at only 31k miles) I find it hard to flinch at 100,000.

 

I also have a 2006 GT, and I have decided to hang onto it for a good while. I will reconsider in 2014 about letting one of the two go if something really nice is put out for the anniversary edition.

 

My '07 has 87k on the clock. Should hit 100k before its paid off next winter and becomes a garage decoration. I plan on putting many many more miles on it in the years to come!

 

you won't get a penny's worth extra for your car. Certainly not if you do a trade-in!
Keep it, keep up the maintenance and your depreciation will be minimized.
Buying a new Mustang is always, without exception, like throwing about $3,000+ out the window!

 

ok thanks guys for all your input
