You know I'm not a fan of the S197 Mustang but I'm not sure I'd go all in on a premium SN95 either.

I'd only go deep on a Terminator otherwise a Craigslist New Edge GT is all one needs.
One can do/build whatever you want with this body style off of a GT (as opposed to the V6 which requires lots of rewiring for any V8 swap).
I'm not gonna lie tho' -- I'd sell mine and go 2015+ Ecoboost automatic S550 if I ever get the chance.#sex
When I say 'all-in' I mean I wouldn't spend north of $15k on just about any SN95. Having had my fun I can't see doing it again at 3x+ the price.
In the off chance you remember that Roush Clone I was looking at at the very beginning of my search, it's still on that ratty lot, been over a year now. I pass it on the way to and from work every day.
Judging by eBay buy it now prices, people seem to want $20-25k for the non-supercharged S281s.
Seems like a tough sell in a world of stock Ecoboost Mustangs that make 270-280 hp at the wheels for the same price new, and can have an extra 90+ hp with a tune, intake, downpipe, and intercooler.
281 SC are rare enough that it's hard to get a handle on the market at a glance.
I read you but in my (biased) opinion the Terminator is special. It's the pinnacle of the plat.Originally Posted by dodint
Financially-speaking, I will be shocked if the '03-'04 Cobras ever stop appreciating. Especially if one buys a stock or close-to-stock sub<100K mi one.

Not to mention the otherwordly jump in interior quality and exterior design.
I would have a hard time paying more to buy back my car. I loved it but nostalgia would not cause me to pay more for a lesser car.
Aka, I have a hard time believing that my car has appreciated.....there are so many great cars that have come out since then.
*gasp*
Ah, not over your MSRP but the low point of resale has passed, that's all I'm saying. The bounce is on the upswing now, it seems like.
