Alright guys so I'm not too old, but the decision has already come across me to upgrade my car. I've had my 2010 mustang v6 since December 31st 2009, and let me just say the mpg and horsepower in the 4.0 aren't impressive. The car is purchased by my father and he has suggested to trade in my car mainly due to gas prices (lets not forget the convenient horsepower gains). So the possibility of a new car is deff. a possbility. Now the concerns i have are what are the pros and cons of doing this? I wouldn't think of many cons.

Are there any cons?
I would go for it if you have the option open to you. The only think you would be giving up are any attachments you have for your car.

sounds like the same story with me and my car. i also got mine the exact same day as you did. you could always transfer your appearance parts to your new one like the GT500 valance and grilles. i say do it man. i want to but dont have the funds now too.

yeah ill take the grilles off, but the valance has to stay, my old cut out one was scuffed up. but yeah this summer this should go down. im looking at a good dealer and should have to get a good price. My main problem is I want the most out of a trade in value and i feel like im going to get low balled.

5.0 swap possibility?

Lmao! =] well......its still considered a v6....so we can only offer you 15 thousand...

plenty of cons. Is your existing ride paid off or do you owe more than its worth?

I got the car for a good price at 18,700. So I won't lose a whole lot on the trade in, but ive had the car for the first year and a half out of five for payments.
