How I became mustang challenged

I have always been a mustang fan. It is my dad's fault you see when I was born my dad had a 67 mustang and it got into my blood. I have owned 3 mustangs spanning 13 years. So for most of my adult life I have driven one. I am now zooming around in a Mazda Protege 5 which is great, but it isn't a mustang. After selling my last GT in 1998 to buy a house I have been longing for a mustang daily.

Until recently I have always wanted a 1993 GT. I was not fond of the change Ford made to the mustang in 1994, although the Cobras are pretty sweet. In 99 further changes stared to catch my eye. Two years ago the 2003 Mach 1 really caught my eye, but car leases and my situation at the time prevented me from getting one.

Fast forward to now... Am I glad I have waited. The new 2005 Mustang GT is awesome!! With plans to get a new 2005 in the works, Ford releases the news of a pending Cobra next year. What to do? I figure the next new car that I buy, will be the last new car that I buy. So, why not wait and get what you have always wanted? So here I am caught between my dreams and time. Hence my dilemma being Mustang Challenged. Enjoy!
