How are you purchasing your Mustang? Are you buying or leasing and how many months?

Just curious because I am thinking of leasing a V6 for now and if I like it I will buy it, but lets say down the road I want a GT then I can hand them the keys and get a GT, but I think I will like the V6 because basically the big difference between the Gt and the V6 is the engine. There are some little differences but not that significant for me. Until I get married insurance is going to play a big roll in wether I get a GT or V6. :scratch:

Please state (if it applys) how many months you are leasing or buying.

I'm buying, probably going for a four year loan.

They didn't have a good deal on leasing the Mustang, it seemed like the payments were going to be just about the same as buying, so I might as well buy?

I originally planned to lease, but didn't like the rates. Ended up financing for 3 years at 3.75%. The $ in the bank is earning about 1.75%, so it's only costing me about 2%. Not a whole lot of interest building up, with the benefit of remaining liquid, ownership of a bad hiney car, no mileage limits, and bring on the mods!!

Buying! I compared leasing to buying and the monthly payments were almost the same. Besides, I want to be able to say it's MINE, MINE, MINE!!!!!
