After getting cold feet a few times, I finally parted ways with my 03. It ended up going to another forum member that undoubtedly will give it a great home. Looking thru pictures of the car, I would be lying to say I didn't miss it. It wont be my last, someday I will own another. That being said, I had my heart set on a gen3 Dodge Viper to fill the void left by the Cobra. As time passed looking for a Viper, I kept finding myself looking at Mustangs again and again. I couldn't fight the urge any longer and caved in, picked up another Mustang lol. Purchased a babied 17 GT with Track Pack and Recaro's, 5k miles, from a close friend. The car has some suspension work as well as a few bolt-ons, made 495whp on e85. I'm really enjoying having a newer car for the first time in my life, but it's definitely no Terminator, completely different feel.

Bittersweet. Last memory of her before she hit the transport trailer......

Hate to see it go but there will be more out there when you're ready to buy again. I've sold many cars I miss and wish I didn't sell but I always seems to find another one that makes me happy. GT looks great, I'm sure it's a fun car!

Hope you don't mind depreciation

The enjoyment far outweighs the depreciation.

Congrats man I like it......I watched your sale thread for awhile being in PA myself. Thought about unloading my car as well but just cannot seem to part with it. Rather add another lol! Love the color and it looks real good on the rts wheel setup. Any plans for the car?

Myself I can buy a newer 5.0 but I can’t see myself pick the new mustang over the cobra . In a few year you will be looking for another terminator . Since the new mustang are every where , the 16 years old down the street of your own a new 5.0 mustang just like your , the old lady at the gas station you go own a new 5.0 mustang just like your .... you get what I’m say ? Unless it’s a gt500 only way you will be stand out from the rest .
