Default Value of used car in 1-2 years??

I have a 2009 gt and I'm already getting tired of the amount of power. I keep telling myself to not keep dumping money into it that I won't get back out of it. So, my plan is to keep it as is for the next 1-2 years and then trade it in. My question is:
What do you think a used 2007-08 gt500 will cost in 2 years?
What do you think a used 2012 boss 302 will cost in 2 years?
Those are my dream cars and I keep trying to give myself something to look forward to so I don't spend anymore money on my 2009 and instead save up.

I'd say it depends a lot on how well people like the 2015, as far as actual numbers, I've got no idea, other than I get the feeling that bosses will hold their value pretty good.

There's an 07 red GT500 at my local ford dealer for 27900, don't know the mileage off hand. So id guess itd be ~24k in 2 years, but since a whole knew platform comes out for '15 I'd imagine some value will be affected due to approval/disapproval of that platform.

Not sure if this helps you or not, but my 2013 is estimated to be worth 54% of its original value in 3 years. Those Boss's will retain more of their value, and an 07-08 gt500, in 2 years, will be at least 8 years old, depending on condition may be worth 30-40% of their value. Really depends on market, availability, condition, miles, etc..

Last year I could have had an '08 GT500 with some additional mods for about $24k off a Ford lot. Kickin' myself in the **** as we speak...

24k would have been a steal!
