Unfortunately, I love way too many cars that I'll never be able to have everyone that I'd like to have.

I'm sure plenty of you are in the same shoes regarding this.

We bought our 19 GT 350 what will be two years come May 2nd of this year. The only reason I remember the exact day is because it got delivered about an hour or so before we had to put Sadie (our 15yr old beagle) down. She was our first dog that we had together. The wife has never really cared for the car because if that day. She has rode in it once.

I still like it, and at the time I was considering a 1993 cobra, but the prices were not much less than a GT 350.

We've always liked the 69 Camaro and I still think about that dang 93 cobra....

I've been thinking lately about, what if we sold the 350 to fund one of the other cars....

I'm not going to make any quick decisions, because the wife is working 100+ hours a week right now. Tax season...

Just wanted to share my thoughts because the wife has little time and I don't even know her thoughts on this yet.

Am I crazy?

What's your guys other cars you'd trade for? Or sell your current one for another?

I also have a GT350. My plan is to keep it until retirement and then get a 911. The GT350 is such an excellent car.

I also have a '66 convertible mustang. I've thought about selling it and looking for a '69 Chevelle.

Looking is 80% of the fun of car shopping, so relax and enjoy the journey.

I don't want to sell my terminator, but my next car will be a GT350.

Let me know if you decide to list yours. I plan to buy one in within the next year
I'll definitely keep you posted. If it does happen, it could be within a year. But it's truly a fun car to drive. I just don't think the wife will ever like just because it got delivered on a bad day.

It's not perfect and has rock chips. I have a new bumper and front lower splitter/chin spoiler.

Just added a Ford extended warranty.

@CompOrange04GT it would be a very low mileage 93 cobra, but yeah it's kinda crazy. At the time we paid 65k for our 350, a nice low mileage 93 cobra is probably 40-60k. At least that's what I've seen.

My first car was a 69 Chevelle. I should have kept that one.

I've been looking for a blue one. let me know, I'd much rather buy one from an enthusiast than some random dealership that doesn't know the history of the car.

For me, my only fun car is my 92 Coupe which is in full frankenstang build mode... I'm sure I'll be 50-75k into it by the time it's driveable. I would LOVE a Teal 93 Cobra, but at the same time I'd want one pretty much original to preserve the value which might kill my interest once I had it. My car, started life as a 4 banger and had no real value... now it's literally a frankenstang that has the best of 79-04 and will be pristine and everything I wanted it to be.

I would love a GT350, more than any other 2000+ year model Mustang, especially in the blue color of yours. That said, personally, if I had your GT350, I'd sell it and get a C6 Z06 in a similar color and never sell that as it sits next to my fox. Those two cars are my dream garage.

The teal is the color I'd be going for as well. Although that red is also nice.

I have a feeling the wife won't let me sell the 350. She's weird like that. And when someone asks why I need permission, her names on all the titles. Plus she paid for that car .

I’m in the process of trading my wife’s 22 Audi S7 for a 24 BMW XM Label. Just need more room with our kids still riding with us most of the time and I’m tired of being cramped.

I think a 911 turbo or a GTS is in my near future. I really want the GTS because it is light and RWD. Currently a 2017+ GTS is close to what they cost new. I'm not in a big hurry as prices seem to be dropping. I would love to have a gt350R, but at the altitude that I live at it would be slow due to loss of naturally aspirated horsepower. I'm also considering a gt500.

I would trade my car for a Mustang GT3.

Or I would add with a Huracan STO.
