It depends, I read good guitar get better with time because the wood gets drier, but it has to be a good guitar in the first place, a bad guitar won't get good with time no matter how old it is.

Time can make some guitars better..But I don't know...I would buy new pickups if I like the guitar all around (comfortable to play and everything)..Seems like a drag to sell a guitar in order to buy another one (just because of pickups)

I wouldn't sell my guitar. It's one of those things that you could regret for the rest of your life, especially if it's an important guitar to you.

I don't think that guitar can be better than yours, it's not like it's 40 year old american strat so you can count on a quality production and hardened wood. If your guitar fits you nicely, upgrade the pups and you will be happy.

Guitars might get better over the years, but i would probably have kept the new Fender and replaced the pickups. Especially if you really like how your current Fender feels.

I think you should stay with your new strat and enjoy it..You can change pickups when you save some money..That old strat has to be played a lot , in what condition are frets etc ? I mean its just not worth it....

Thats great man
 Much better to leave your own energy in a new instrument and let it age in your own hands
