This question is probably stupid and annoying and impossible to answer, and if it is, just tell me to shut up...
I'm 20, but I'll be 21 in May, so let's just assume I'm 21 already. The other day I woke up and turned on my computer-machine and checked the inter-web and saw a picture of the production 2005 GT Mustang and immediately passed out. Upon recovering, I had this crazy vision in my head of me owning one.
Now I don't currently own a car, but we don't have any extras sitting around here, and I need to be able to get around. I've been looking at Taurus SHOs and Thunderbird SCs until now, but that's a digression... Point is I want a 2005 Mustang GT, preferably with all the fancy goodies like the colored interior and that pointless aluminum thing on the dash. (Yeah, I know that the older cars are smarter for about a thousand reasons, not the least of which is that they cost a tenth of the new GT's MSRP, I'm not too stupid to see the facts, just too stupid to make the right decision based on them.)
So I've read that pricing won't change much from the 2004 models, and I've also read that you can drive away in a new GT for 21k. Is that price before or after rebates? Hopefully before because I'll bet Ford won't offer any incentives of any substantive sort on the new Stang. So let's assume that these - that pricing will remain constant and that you can get GTs for 21 - are both true (stop me here if they're not.) That essentially means that folks will be able to purchase these cars for around 21k right?
Basically I really like the idea of being able to get ahold of one of the new GTs for something less than 28 grand. I'm terriffically lucky that I don't have any expenses like school and things (and I probably don't deserve to be,) and I could probably make a reasonable down payment and then pay the rest over 60 months as long as the car isn't actually 30 large (and as long as insurance doesn't work out to something like 8000 dollars yearly - and it totally could )
So anyway I forgot my own question. Oh yeah... How much does everyone think the average 2005 GT will cost? Because I really really want one. A lot.
