Longest you've owned your car...
 
Bought the LX new in 1988. Just sold it... Thats 15 years and 140,000 miles.

Sill have the 97... Probably end up selling it and get a 03 or 04... probably keep that for another 15 years!

14 Years with my current Mustang. 89GT. Though now it only comes out on sunny weekend days.

Sicy Stang 05-08-2003 01:44 PM

Wow I'm impressed! :eek:

Bought my 88 in 1994.. still have it.. 130k. So 9 years.

Mustang longevity
 
I drove my brand-new, 1990 LX 5.0 off the dealer's lot 13 years ago and it's still going strong after 122,000 pleasurable miles. I love my Mustang! :D

Bought my car back in June 2002, so coming up on 1 year:) First car I've ever owned. Have no plans of selling her but want to add a newer mod car next year or two. ~Brian

I have had my '84 for 8 years now. It will be one year for the 2000 in August.

lil drummer boy 05-08-2003 03:00 PM

is June-August a popular time to get a mustang? ...it seems we get them around then...

oh wait... it's the middle of summer... duh... lol

The Fireman 05-08-2003 03:12 PM

Hmmm. I got mine in October of 2001. So that's 1, and a half years for me.

lil drummer boy 05-08-2003 03:14 PM

ya know I almost bought one in October of 2001 too... it was midnight blue... brand new GT on the lot... they only had 2 sticks left and the rest were automatics... I test drove it and wanted to buy it... but I couldn't afford the payments :(

I bought my '94 Formula new in August of '94, so almost 9 years. My father drove it as a company car and I bought it as a GM program vehicle with 7600 miles, most of which he put on it. I have an '01 Alero that I've owned since January of last year. I had a '96 Sonoma that I kept for six months before trading it in for a nearly identical one with a V6 instead of an I4. Both were new when I bought them. Had that until April of last year. Put 184,000 miles on it in about 5 1/2 years. My wife has a '99 Grand Am GT that we bought new in April of '99. I've also owned an '84 Cutlass Supreme, an '84 Cutlass Ciera, and an '84 Delta 88 (my first car). Holy cats, that's eight cars! I'm not THAT old, am I?

Maroon 5.0 LX 05-08-2003 03:38 PM

Got my '89 LX in May of '89. 71,000 and garage kept still.

MidNiteBlu 5.0 05-08-2003 06:03 PM

Will be two years this September, the weekend after labor day

Hethj7 05-08-2003 08:43 PM

I have had my Stang for almost 6 years now, and I am just 23. It looks better now than it did the day I brought it home:D .

RBatson 05-10-2003 04:59 AM

Bought my 89 in March of 91, its not even the same car and I love it even more.

Mach 1 05-10-2003 08:50 AM

Wow, the longest I can keep a car is 4 years. Even after I dump thousands upon thousands of dollars in mods into them, after 4 years, I need something new to play with, and sell it for a loss. Thats why I got out of the hobby I guess...lol...I was going broke.
