You could always have it insured under your parents name like if it was their car.

Before anyone asks if that is illegal let me answer you by saying NO. It would be the same thing as letting somebody "borrow" the car

I hope you can somehow keep the mach,its a sweet ride and you'd miss the 4v power.Dont get me wrong i love my 01 gt but if i had the chance for a 4v,my stang would be gone in a hurry.

I absolutely love my Mustang GT but I think I may be selling it soon. I cannot afford the insurance costs really. I can, but I am a student so working 6 days a week and school is not the greatest thing. I need some time to enjoy the fruits of my labor. I am really stuck, I love it but I don't know if I should keep it.
You and I are ni the same boat my friend. I feel like im living off paycheck to paycheck instead of being able to save my money. I dont know how much insurance would differ from a Mach 1 so who knows.
Your Mach is probably a little more expensive to insure, but I am still a teen so my car costs $3000 to insure full coverage. That plus my car payments is about $540 a month the way my insurance payments work. That is a lot of money for a kid to pay and try to go to college.

EDIT: Plus I live in Massachusetts where I can only drive the car about 2/3 of the year. That is even worse. I hate to say it but I may be leaving the stang community that I love.

My 99 GT is awesome. Of course it isnt the fastest car on teh road by any means, but just driving it makes me feel good about myself. Even if I'm not driving fast, I feel powerful, like I could do something bad IF i wanted, but I dont.

Maybe im making up for some shortcomings in my life, *shrugs* maybe that is all we're doing...

Haha +1, exactly my thoughts. I love my GT to death. I've always wanted a Mustang but could never afford one as a teenager. Now I have a beautiful '03 GT. It's not the fastest thing out there, but it's a little slice of cars that used to be; cars that had RWD confidence in corners, the throaty sound of a healthy V8, and the simplistic interior/electronics system rather than then 1001 gadgets, buttons and "computers" that now run newer cars which basically means 1001 things MORE that could go wrong. Also a car that has endured for over 40 years! How many people can say that?

Matt, I know you aren't going to make the car a dragster, you just love Mustangs for what they are. I think you'd be happy with a GT. Sure the Mach 1 is faster, and has better potential for mods because it's a 4V engine., but then again you aren't going to go crazy on mods. If the Mustang is your dream car, I think you should keep it., at least if you get a GT, you'll still have a Mustang.

BTW, I pay $101/month full coverage for my GT. (I'm 27 years old)
