[QUOTE="Hagdio72, post: 1980673, member: 66093"] I appreciate the response! It's thought provoking for sure. Really nice fleet you have there! Yes, I sold the mustang back in August. I feel like I got out at the right time just before S650s started hitting dealer lots and the used car market started to soften a bit. Some days I do miss it, but I realize that if I did still have it, it would spend 5 days a week in my garage. Towards the end of my ownership, when I drove it I felt like I would get my fix of "sports car" out of my system after just 25 minutes or so of driving (even after not driving it for a week) and then I'd feel indifferent about it shortly thereafter. Those 25 minutes were always joyous though LOL, but couldn't justify keeping it for that. I'll be keeping an eye on 2024 Raptors this year. I heard the first ones are hitting the production line today. Per the last Fed meeting, interest rates may come down over the course of 2024 and there also might some deals to be had as I believe the car market is still softening. We'll see, purely speculative at this point, but patience could pay off in this regard. On the other shoulder, the finance/OCD side of my brain is telling me to just keep my 2018 Platinum with 60k miles that will be paid off in about 18 months (then I'll be debt free outside of my mortgage), but life is short! Granted I just turned 28, so I have time lol. [/QUOTE]
