Awesome trip in an awesome car.
I did a 5,000 mile plus round trip NYC to Vegas in my S550 GT.
The Mustang is made for road trips. Nothing like opening it up on those scenic long roads.
I had XPEL on my front bumper, mirrors, headlights, hood and front fenders on my 2015 GT that I just traded in for the 350.
my GT had nearly 10,000 miles on it, of which 5,000 were from a round trip to Vegas from NY.
ZERO chips or scratches. Car looked brand new.
So yes, the finished product...
I was offered 29K on a trade a couple of months ago. (See my sig for my model and options.)
I'd bet it's less now. Especially with 17 models not too far away.
Our Stangs do not hold their value very well.
You will easily lose over $5k... probably closer to $10K
Trade in can also be affected...
if you love V8's and love power get the GT. So what if it's only a base model.
Yes the extra gizzmos and performance pack are nice but they don't make the car.
My 2013 GT was a base model car... I'd take it over a loaded Ecoboost without question.
will you have buyers remorse every time you...
IMO BLIS is worth it 100%... just drove round trip across the country in my Stang and it was very useful. Could you live without it? sure... but it was worth having Vs. not having.
Congrats on the Z51.
I am considering getting a Stingray myself and also keeping my Stang.
Love to hear your thoughts on owning both these beasts together.
I'd keep your car. The premium is a nice interior upgrade but you won't enjoy the car any less owning a base. It's the 5.0 that brings the smiles... not the leather seats or dashboard.
Had Recaros on my 13' track pack GT, while I loved them on that car I opted for the regular seats for my 15' GT and have no regrets passing on them this time.
Yes the Recoro's looked cooler but the non-recaros hold me just as snug and feel even more comfortable to me. I also wanted the...
I have Xpel Ultimate on my 15' GT - Full Hood, Full Front Fenders, Entire Front End, Headlights and Sided Mirrors. I've had it on all my cars in the past. My 2013 Mustang GT's paint looked brand new after 2 plus years. Not a scratch.
Yes it is not cheap... But in my opinion if you just spent...
