how long do you plan to keep your 05 or 06 S197?

[66Satellite]

Just curious.

 

[rage1605]

Just curious.

Until they come out with a new flavor of the stang (mach1, bullit, something) or until the Challenger is released

 

[crewwolfy]

I don't plan on ever putting her down. I'd probably total her on the track before I ever sell her. Of course, I'm hoping that neither happens...

 

[concreteman]

well, I'm restomoding the 69 now so in 35 years I should be redoing the 05

 

[SVTFreak]

I always say ill keep something for a long time, then end up selling it to start a new project 2 years later.

 

[Mickey21]

10-15 years, but it will be an 07 :wink:

 

[gp001]

For these types of decisions I like to use this simple formula:

[sqrt(Year of car/number of combustion chambers)*(latitude of car location/longitude of car location)*(price paid for car)*(the barometric pressure at time of purchase)*(the number of syllables in the dealers name)^2]/pi

 

[Berserker]

Never. If the Challenger comes out I may if lucky try to add it to the garage but if not I'm keeping my 06 forever.

 

[GOLDENPONY]

How long?

Forever

 

[scramblr]

Indefinitely

 

[FL2005GT]

100K miles or so.

 

[bigcat]

when i bought it, i said forever. but if the time comes for something better (like a GT500) then so be it!

 

[spectre30075]

Indefinately. May upgrade to a Shelby or some newer GT down the road after this one's paid off, but who knows.

 

[Gangwar]

2 or 3 years the most as of now.....
I enjoy driving new cars...
Hope that the Chalenger will be out by 2008 or 2009,,,,But afraid the Mopar people will ask alot...But glad that Mopar and Chevy will release new cars to go up against the Stang GT...
And the Prices of the 2008 and 09s stang Gts will be alot lower then they have been....JT

 

[sacha]

I'm never gettin rid of mine. It will hopefully be in my family for generations to come.

 

[dmaxstang]

don't know that i will be without the pony

To me this vehicle seems like a whole new line of car. Like it is the first year for mustang almost, maybe because of the retro style and the extreme seperation between the 2004 model. But this is just my take on it ! Anyone feel the same. This is why i may never get rid of the pony.

 

[racerraj]

Well, I've had my 88 since it was new, now it has 325,000 miles. I'll get the 06 Tues/Weds and turn the 88 into the project car, but keeping it drivable and insured. Guess that means the 06 will be my primary until 2024, then another project car

 

[hamidlmt]

I wish I still had my 68... but I was young and couldn't afford all the breakdowns. I'm not making the same mistake with this one... passin' it on to the next generation (well, if I ever have kids!)

 

[lightningJoe]

4-5 years, maybe sooner,I have a hard time keeping cars for a long while, get bored to easy. Hopefully if things go well I will be able to add an adrenalin to the stable.

[Pliskin]

Probably till this fall. Maybe pick up an 07 or something. I would like to get a special edition stang though.
