Planning My Next Purchase
 
So I sold my 2007 GT500 for some investment money and it looks like I should be cashing in sometime this summer. I am throwing a few ideas around right now but if I buy another car I have a few different options and I though I'd see what you guys thought. The options I am considering are:

2012 Boss 302 LS
2000 Cobra R
2013 Boss 302 Street

One big consideration on the 2013 for me is that our dealership scored an allocation for one so I get to buy at a discounted price. I do have connections to try to find a 2012 Boss as well and as far as the Cobra R goes I guess that is an Ebay purchase. Another thing is the fact the the first 2 don't have a back seat. I do have a 1 year old and she may want to ride in it some day.

Wow...I think I would be happy with any of the three! The 2000 Cobra R has always been one of my favourite stangs of all time, and probably always will be. But honestly, unless you're going for a collector car, the 2012 LS or 13' Boss' are probably the better option. They used to say there's replacement for displacement, but there actually is.....It's called technology, and the 5.0 is evidence of that IMO.

2013 GT500. It's a monster to say the least and will stomp just about anything you can find.

^^^I have to agree. I could pick up a Boss for say 55 but the LS was 14g's more, so frustrating

That isn't one that I'm considering. I want to try something different. Had an 04 Cobra and an 07 GT500 already.

I will also keep an eye out for a 12 street Boss.

what makes it different or is it over a normal Boss?

I wish my biggest stresses in life were like what you, and SNAKEBITE have... in deciding on your next mustang purchace LOL!!
Kidding aside, A Boss 302, 2012 or 2013.

Oh don't worry there are stresses, not financially but I have a ton of weight on my shoulders with my job. I'm leaning hard toward a Boss but have always loved the R and I know I'll never see another. When it comes to a GT500 they are around every corner, and there is more and more Bosses out there all of the time.
