Everyone owns a Mustang. Even if you don't know it, you do, you just haven't found it yet. Get your weed whacker out and go cut the weeds, you'd find one in your yard. There are so many on the road I am convinced that everyone owns one, or two...

You are correct. CNN also listed them as one of their top 10 investment cars of the future.
I'm not sure how much of an investment a Mustang would be. The only reason I say that is the simple fact that the market is absolutely FLOODED with them. For example, there is a guy here in town that sells them, he probably has 15 of them on his lot at any given time and he has been there the entire 5 years we have lived here. He buys them, sells them, puts tons mods on them etc. the kids around here love them etc. The cars he sells sell from $3900 up.
So all in all IMO unless you have something really really rare, I'm not too sure they would be a good investment. A good friend of mine just sold his 09 GT500KR, he paid 83k new and sold it for 65k. Granted, he prob should have kept it in a garage for another 30 years and then maybe he might have made money, but then again, maybe not. I got to drive that car just before he sold not too long ago, and I must admit, that was one Mustang that was actually worth driving!
Personally I don't buy a car for an investment, just trying to prove a point that they probably shouldn't be used for a bonfire like some people think.
I see two boys driving an lowered white with blue racing stripe 89 GT convertable dressed in Cobra rims and wide-ovals going to the local high school in the morning. I can smell the open exhaust while standing at the light. I wonder if they treasure the moment.
Actually the Fox body Mustangs are a great investment....the ROI (return on investment) is spectacular I have bought several recently that have less then 5K miles on them and still paid under 10K for them, I paid that much for a Mopar part alone a few years back.....The ones I own now are paid for with ROI monies and I still think they are a very sound investment today that you can see, feel, drive and enjoy....where else can you make ROI today?
My take on this thread is that you can find one for a few thousand, throw a couple thousand into them and sell for a few thousand above that. Fox bodies would be '79-'93, so they aren't that old and aren't very new either, keeping their prices down. Are they better to flip than say the Camaro Z/28's and Trans Ams of the same era?
1968 400 Coupe, verdoro green, black vinyl top 1968 400 Convertible, verdoro green, black top 1971 Trans Am, cameo white, auto 1970 Buick Skylark Custom Convertible 350-4(driver)
BTW - another collectable would be the '93 Cobra in Teal Blue. Not many made overall, and far fewer in that color.
I know someone who has one and is definitely holding on to it.

They are a better investment then the Camaro and Trans Am as there are more to choose from as well as they are in more of a demand.
