There are cheaper mustangs than a 01 GT i would sell the Stratus and buy the nicest mustang i could get with the money. Unless u have to have a 01. U can get a fox body really cheap and the SN95's can be picked up fairly cheap too hell i was selling my 95 GT for $2500. Dont bother with a loan unless it is no problem for u to pay off. I may be putting one of mine up for sell soon

Keep the stratus until you're out of school... then set your sights on what you really want.

Keep your current car, I have learnt the hard way that its easier to save from now rather then have a shit load of payments later. Plus I would think a loan would put some added stress on you in cunjunction with school.
(If you are looking for the cool factor, don't worry about it your in school you will get laid regardless.)
