Oh my god... I love you guys.

Seriously, I'd kiss every guy in here right now.

The way it's looking now, I just talked my dad into a GT (yeah, it goes through the big man, I can't buy it myself without some help). One week from now I'll be either driving a new v6 (different color if so probably, because I can't handle black on a dusty street), and stick instead of auto possibly (That's a bit iffy, I had a hip replacement and he thinks that might be extra wear and tear.

Or

A GT to replace the V6, either way, it's looking like 0% instead of 8%.

But I wonder if they really would offer 16,000 for a trade-in.

I checked this out myself. You need good credit to get it (above 700). You also need to consider that you are spending more money for a GT, regardless of whether your payment stays the same or not. $25,000 over 72 months at 0 percent could easily be the same payment as $18,000 over 48 months depending on the interest rate, but in the end you are still paying $25,000. Consider the total price instead of the monthly payment is all im saying :)

EDIT: Oh yeah, you get no $1500 rebate if you take the 0% too.

Good move TNT! I'd be tempted, but a GT is still a bit more car than I need. I really like my 'stang as it is. Besides, the parking mod reversal kit is a fortune and I know a dealership won't take my car on a trade-in.... I mean c'mon... just check the sig....

Actually, I'm not sure it would be more than 2-3g for me, considering that it was 8% interest with my parent's perfect credit (ironically, incentives started less than a month after it was bought).

Congrats on the new GT, sounds like a great deal. I'll stick with my V6 and get the X-Charger in a year and be happy as a pig in .....

+1 I've really come to appreciate my V6. I originally thought my target was eventually a GT but the 6er has enough power and power potential that a GT is just 2 more cylinders, a cooler sound and payments I don't really need. And it's sooooo much fun modding and personalizing my Vista Blue beauty. But you have one sweet ride and got a great deal. Congrats!

That's the same thing I was thinking when I read this. As much as I want one. I think I'll stick with the 6er

Same here... It's tempting, but my credit is only mid 600's anyway, plus my payments are enough as it is right now. Its tough being a college grad, even with a good job, still so many payments every month! I love my 6 though, can't wait to start doing some mods!

You could actually pay LESS per month depending on what your interest rate was before. BTW- you can still put money down as well. Ford Credit evidently loves you when you do that.

Since My car is in the shop getting it's 3rd tranny; I have a little extra incentive to trade. I have my dealer looking for a GT for me! My monthly payment will be less w/ the GT!! Depending on how much neg equity i have in my trade.

Hmmm. My car has 25k miles on it and I owe $10,500. My payment is 233 a month at 12% interest rate for 60 months. Even with 0% for 72 months I don't see how they could possibly get my payment lower than $233 a month.

Hmmm...let's see now. 10 years from now, which would hold more of it's original value?
Hypothetical comparison here...an '06 GT in Legend Lime or Screaming Yellow (I used those because both colors are discontinued now) versus an '06 V6 Pony Package in Legend Lime or Screaming Yellow - if both are decked out with all the options?

I don't know which has lower production numbers, or if that even has any significance in these cars as far as appraised value in the future. I know the GT will have a plus just from the point of being a higher cost car from the start. But 5 years from now, which will depreciate less?

I guess I'm trying to justify in my mind why I would even consider trading my Pony off, it's paid for, insurance is less, gas mileage is a toss-up, and the price difference on a trade would still be $8000 or more. The biggest draw-back would be my son being on my insurance, at least for a couple more years. Adding him with the V6 only added $85/month. The GT supposedly adds $235/month

Hmmm...the V6 is looking better and better. But this offer is still sooooooooooo tempting.

I'm on my way to the dealership on my lunch hour. I'm hoping that things will work out for me too.

Nice car TNT.

Great deal if you want to be paying for 6 years. You can always keep your payments down if you spread them our over many years. In reality you are still paying a siginificant amount of money over a price on a sixer
