The one I have is my first mustang, and I'll own it as long as I can. I recently sold my first car, and it felt like a kick in the balls :/

I'm keeping mine until I die. When I do, my wife has instructions to use the Mustang as my coffin.

I have owned a number of vehicles that I was more or less in love with. Each of these cars or trucks hold a special place in my heart, but aren't necessarily still parked in my driveway. How many of you plan on keeping your Mustang forever? How many of you already have plans to trade-in, or sell your current Mustang when the 2015 is available? What cars do you regret selling? Let's see them and hear your thoughts and stories!

Well it's not a Mustang, I got my Raptor in 2013 new and already has a due date. I want to see what Ford offers for 2015-2016.

Can't wait as I am getting bored.lol

owned my cobra longer then any other vehicle i'v had. I have just cut my losses on it and accepted that the money I spent is gone. Its with me for good. I will add more to the collection as money and space permit.

I had my 2001 GT for a year and a half. Have had the 2000 GT since February and it will probably go up for sale as soon as I get it back together lol. Really want a fox body.

I'm pretty sentimental when it comes to vehicles I like hanging onto them, my very first car when I got my license was a Y2K V6 that I had a blast with for about 5 years, then I stepped it up to a 89' GT, totaled that car and got into a truck. I haven't found my Termi yet but when I do I plan on keeping it for life, teaching and letting my daughter enjoy it some day, I remember walking into the dealership back in 2003 and seeing a Torch Red Termi I believe on the showroom floor and I fell in love. Maybe someday down the road I'll add to the corral, but a Termi is def. priority #1.

Not really sure. At some point I'll upgrade. Just don't know when. I'm buying boat next year so it'll definitely be around for another couple years.

Was on the fence last year, frustrated with how things were going,I thought about selling my 2001 GT . But, with all the time and work I've put it, I'll keep it forever. Plus its my first so the whole sentimental thing plays in as well. Would like to add a clean SN to the collection sometime... One project at a time though.

I've had my '99 Cobra since the summer of '03 and have no plans to sell it. I have a bunch of family and friends who swear American-made is junk or doesn't last and I plan on proving them all wrong.

What they don't know is I know how to restore... Is that weird??? w/e

I bought my 96 back in 2009 with my own money, two days after I turned 16. As if the car didn't have sentimental value already, I now have more money in it than it's worth :rolling: I hope to pick up more Mustangs as I get older, but I'll have my 96 with me forever

Ive been debating about selling mine lately to buy a c6z. Probably wont do it just because I know I would regret it.
Just save up i guess.
Probably keep it forever.

I got my 13 GT500 as a retirement gift(Wife put the down payment on it) and my son went with me to pick it up. I'm pretty sure I'll keep it until he finishes college and give it to him.

Sold all mine, but I wish I had my near mint '93 GT back & my clean '97 Cobra Vert back.

I'll be back in a Mustang eventually. Other things/cars I want beforehand.
