  • Flashback brings back muscle - 2005 Ford Mustang
    By -

    I was waiting for a car like this my whole life. I love it. The ripping engine sound, the style, the interior. The new traction control the old Mustangs lacked.

  • Just the facts - 2005 Ford Mustang
    By -

    I ordered in December. from a dealer that had no allocation. Re-ordered in April, finally arrived June. Top ripped around window, factory just replaced. The A/C was better (colder) in my 2000. No inside glove box truck release. Why only 1 rear window switch for both. The key rubs your leg (should be higher). Shaker 1000 not worth the money, besides eats trunk space. Quiet, fast, good looking; no doubt this car is a classic. Even with the faults, where could you buy a better car for the money? Headlights are great for the back roads. Backseat not bad in a pinch.This car stands out in a crowd.

  • My First Mustang - 2005 Ford Mustang
    By -

    This is my first Mustang and I have absolutely no regrets. From the first day to now, driving this car puts this huge grin on my face. I have driven Cobras with much more horsepower, but this car is much more of a blast to drive. I am amazed still by how well it handles but the muscle car rumble and power is definitely there. Five months later, this car still turns heads! The build quality is obvious inside and out. Although I baby this car; garage and not my everyday driver; its still cool that I have had absolutely no problems with her. This car loves to be driven fast, and the gas mileage is a surprise.

  • MY CAR - 2005 Ford Mustang

    I have been through 2 Mustangs. The first one the engine locked up at 400 miles and now I have another one and the transmission is messing up. I love my car but it seems that they have too many problems.

  • Ford finally turns heads - 2005 Ford Mustang
    By -

    New chassis, suspension and looks all done to perfection. Solid body doors/hood/trunk close with a thump and offers an extemely quite ride. Ride amazingly soft for sports car but plenty stiff enough for hard turns and braking. 4 discs are even, steady, smooth with no worry handling when hit hard. Dashboard all within easy reach, well organized. Love position/style (flat/round) turn & wiper levers (unique DOWN for mist & up for wipe). Hardly no blind spot (adjustable side mirrors). seat belts are comfy. "MUSTANG" cloth seats look better than they wear. Lots of front room. Gas mileage nice. Why 20 years for a new frame?

  • 3rd times even better - 2005 Ford Mustang
    By -

    This is the 3rd 6 cyl. Mustang Ive owned and this one is by far my favorite. The fit and finish is great, the performance is so far beyond my 95 that its closer to the fox body v-8. I like it so much that this is the first Stang that Im upgrading visualy and performance wise. Thats saying something about the passion this car causes in me as my first Stang was purchased in 1973. My only complaint would be the fuel fill problem that occurs once in awhile, the tank wont take a fill up at times. Overall, all I can say is that it kills me from Nov. to April when I store it.

  • Very poor Quality - 2005 Ford Mustang
    By -

    This is the worst car I have owned!! Been in the shop several times. Unable to fix front end noise. Been stuck on the side of the interstate 3 times. First problem accurred before the 30 days temp tag was up. Shaker 1000 was fixed 3 times. Very hard to put fuel in it, the pump shuts off after $1.00 or sooner. Ford states No problem there!! I have had Electrical problems, E-brake locking up. rear end out, stereo not working, and the list goes on!!! If u are a mechanic then this is the car to drive!! Buyers beware! Ford needs to make some improvements!

  • An unnatural emotional attachment.... - 2005 Ford Mustang
    By -

    My husband says I have an unnatural emotional attachment to this car. A rear-wheel-drive convertible is not the most practical vehicle for Montana, but I dont care! I am in love with this car. Im having my mid-life crisis early (while I can still enjoy it). This car is an absolute BLAST to drive (top up or top down). I have always wanted a red Mustang convertible (my grandpa had a 64 1/2 baby blue Mustang coupe) and never thought I would be able to afford one. Not only is this car gorgeous, but its AFFORDABLE! This car is a future classic.
