I'm thinkin bout new car(s) for end 2009..

CruizinKev · Jun 29, 2008

so like title says. since some month my girl & I talked about getting a new car for her. she's still driving her first car, the 1.8 golf

so, she really loves the chrysler 300c - we had testdrive it 2004:

LoL I had long hair..

but we also kept an eye to the 05 mustangs :coolsmiley: ....now we're thinkin about gettin both cars by end of next year (we saving money till then) - the 300 and the 05 mustang.
For first I just wanted to keep my 1998 mustang but we thought on the long run would be better to get a newer car - since I drive everyday over 70 kilometers..
so I know what you're thinkin bout the pony - but what do you think about the 300?

we don't want the diesel - diesel are for trucks and tractors :crazy2: we drove the 3.5 v6 - not bad at all for our uses. the hemi is sexy :banana: but I think too much for us.. ....uhm yeah or its not? just looked on the market, the hemis are not too expensive to buy...

I really like the 300's! I have a friend that has a black SRT-8 300! Now that's a ride!! You can't go wrong with the Mustangs, though!

300s aren't bad, but I dislike the S197 Stangs... I'd get an 04... still newer but not a S197.

There's quite a few 300s around here, and it seems you can't make one look all that bad. I say go for the Hemi. You'd probably kick yourself over it later down the road if you didn't give up a little bit more cash for it.

Look into the Pontiac G8s.... KILLER car for something that starts at 29k.
You can get a 6 cyl. or you can be a man and get a 6 liter LS motor. :drool:

I'm seriously thinking about one right now myself.

I'd also say go for the Hemi but that's my personal feeling...

Your Stang is only 10 years old, and since our cars are mechanically simple they'll go a damn long time with correct maintenance. I know a guy who sold his '96 GT at 179K only because he wanted something newer and it had just started burning a little oil. Not bad, if you asked me.

(Then again my cars are about 10 years old on average)

If you've got the funds and this is what you're absolutely sure you want to do (new, unknown quantity; assuming debt on the loans if you don't buy them outright) then by all means go for it.
