Default Depreciation?

What's depreciation like on our stangs? I have an 05 with almost 50K and I'm thinking I should start looking into selling my baby sometime within the next 10-15K. What could I expect to get out of it? Don't worry, if I sell her, I'll be getting another stang of course

You should look up the kelly blue book value thats what the dealer goes by. I think its www.kbb.com the dealer wont give you more than that but will try to give you less. And the after market stuff you put on doesnt make a difference. Youll get more money sellin it your self.

Thanks KBB says about $15K, but that seems a little low. I've seen people selling new edge v6 stangs for 14K with more than 50K...suppose it depends on my location too.

+1. Kelly Blue Book value it then work a trade in deal to get a new one if u want. Or if u want more power cheaper w/less styling and less mpg, look into 99-04 GT's. Insurance will probably be almost exactly what ur paying now.

1 other thing, apparently it's FWD, and not many people looking for a mustang probably want FWD....[sm=smiley36.gif]
