    11 grand sounds like a ton, but you should really take inflation into account..

    In 1993's dollar value, $17400 would be the equivalent of $25989.70 in 2009. So the real difference is only $2,505.30

    I think for $2500, you get a hell of a lot more car, a lot more features, a lot better quality and a lot more safety. Just my .02 though.

    The problem with comparing so called "inflation" dollars is that back before globalization really kicked in,
    there were a lot more working class folks that could afford a Mustang. Today, well, there ain't much of a
    working class left, and most people that can afford a new 30k Mustang are either kids living at home, or
    upper middle class professionals. The point being that for the average working class guy, a Mustang was
    far more affordable in the 80s and 90s than it is today. Example; In 1988 I worked as a service writer at
    a Ford dealer, my salary was about $28k and I bought a brand new 1988 LX 5.0 for $11,000, or less than
    half of my yearly income. I was able to put enough cash down that my loan was only $150 per month for
    24 months! Try pulling off something like that on today's working class salary to expense ratio? The real
    problem isn't that Mustangs are too expensive, it's that working class salaries have fallen off a cliff. And
    gone are the days when a Mustang was truly a working man's hot rod. They don't even make an attempt
    anymore to market a stripped LX V8 model, which does irk me.

    1994-1995 GTs are some kick ass cars. Good old 5.0 power in a more modern package. Cool video, makes me miss mine.
