Leather, sync, and a few other things. I don't care for the base at all.

I thought i was coming into some extra funds this month but turned out it won't be till June or I would have bought on the spot. Ford has $3000 off 2012 Mustangs till April 16th and the local dealer was knocking off around another $2k. That, combined with a local dealer have a few base models left (they tend to go quick around here) would have sold me. I won't see a deal like this again anytime soon. :cry:

hahaha, I'm in the same boat. While it would be neat to entertain the thought of getting a Mustang, it contradicts my vehicular goals.

The waiting game sucks. You can get into that with anything, cars, computers, electronics, etc. There's always something "better" right around the corner. I definitely feel like I'm stuck in that right now with the potential (eventual?) next-gen Z, BRZ STI, Corvette C7, etc.

I briefly toyed with the idea of getting a 2013 Boss LS, mainly used for the track and weekend driving, but I know I'd trade it in a couple years for a C7 or something else. Just seems stupid to get one only to keep it for 2 years. Not to mention their rarity pretty much keeps them at or above MSRP, and at $50K... OUCH!

The 2013 model definitely seems like a quick little refresh just to hold people over before they release their next-gen model, and the 50th anniversary is the perfect time for that.

That's what it is. Keeps things fresh. Big changes for the 50th anniversary.

I'm also thinking if getting my next car in 2014, there will be do many good choices then. New mustang, C7 Z06, new Viper, GT-R, etc.
