2000 V6 Mustang. I wish I still had but wife wanted to keep her 2001 Explore. I tried and begged her to give up her Explore but I guess I dont blame her because that would have given me 2 cars. She would have had it made though because I would have taken car of the V6 for her. It was torch red with grey interior. Man do I miss that car but of course I dont love it more than my GT. I must say I was over the red though because prior to the V6 I had another red 1990 SC T-Bird. Now that catr had some power. V6 with a supercharger from factory.

I had a 98 GT for about 3 years (68K miles to 120K), was a good car. Never had any problems with it.

2000 Audi A4 2.8L V6 quattro...fully loaded with everything except the cloth sport seats and the integrated cell phone. I LOVED that car...still do...but I got an offer on it I couldn't refuse. I miss it SO much right now.

Sold it in March to have the money for the Mustang, which has now been bumped to an 06 so I'm STILL carless. :bang: I'm looking now to pick up a beater for now and then to use in the winters. Going to look at a 94 Volkswagen Jetta tomorrow.

I rode a 1995 Honda Magna motorcycle before getting the '05. I haven't even started it in a week (which is the first time that has happened since I purchased it a year and a half ago). I'm going to try and sell it. I also drove the '66 Mustang (Mollie). Between those 2 vehicles, that's how I commuted 44 miles a day!

I loved mine. Why will you never own one again? I put cold air intake and comptech cat back exhaust and boy did she sound good. Very puzzling.

I had a 2003 Cobra which I sold to get a mazda 3.. only had the mazda 3 for 6 months before I traded it in on the 05 GT. Couldn't live without a mustang.
You traded an '03 cobra for a mazda 3? :nono: Some people are selling there kidneys on the black market for those. At least you came back to the 05!!

'02 Isuzu Rodeo 4x4......and before that was a '00 Honda S2000. Both were White, so it was time for a color change....
If I were to get another 4-banger, it would probably be an S2000.

NOT RICE by the way!!!

Hehe. Everyone else had normal cars...just trying to spice it up. Besides, if I had an Enzo, I wouldn't be on this forum.

If---- the Mustang ever comes, it will be replacing my wife's 2000 Pontiac Montana . We'll be letting our teen age boys have that because it's only got 20,000 on it. (Dealer offered $4000 in trade.) I'll be keeping my 2003 3500 GMC & my 78 CJ-5.

86 GT Mustang here..It had 2 1/2 miles on it when I bought it.. 150,000 on it when it was stolen 2 months after ordering my 05 and 1 month before my 05 arrived..insurance gave me 4,900 for the old one..(Which was 3 times more then I would have gotten for it,In trade ) So I doubled my down payment on the 05.. My 86 turned up 1 month later 3 blocks from my house..no real damage.. just the left rear tail light assembly missing.. Something,or someone was on my side.. Tuff luck State Farm

I sold my '88 Tempo to buy my '98 Taurus, which I am keeping as a winter car. The Tempo was a money pit. The Taurus is going to need a little work in the next month, but now that I have the stang, I can put off the work. My Taurus has been a fun car, and so far reliable and low maintenance.

Three Fords in a row, how many other people car say that.

2004 PSD 4x4 Crew Long Bed with a fifth wheel hitch. Traded her in for the 05.

Anyone know how well the Stang would pull a 30' 5th wheel? I have the hitch mounted in the trunk!
