  • Old Muscle - 2005 Ford Mustang
    By -

    I bought this car to replace a old 1973 340 Plmouth Duster I owned for 18 years. I was getting tired of fixing the old car but loved the power and sound. Well I found the power and sound in a 2005. The mustang is a true rocket. If you nail it out of a stop it will smoke the wheels till it shifts. I have the automatic trans. The car is a true throwback to the early 70 muscle cars.I have 2,100 miles on it and so far no problems. The rear seat is useless. Even my sister had a hard time lifting herself out. But this is a muscle car not a family car.

    2nd Mustang Previous was 90 LX 5.0 Ive owned several sports cars 80,85 TA 89,01 Corvette. This 2005 GT has got great styling with very comfy seats. Mine has the red leather with every option except the automatic. the ride is soft yet firm enough to do some mild performance driving. I never had so much attention in a car. I get stopped all the time and people want to touch and talk about it. Its a big hit for FORD so buy FORD stock and you will do well.

    Retro to the bone! Brings back memories of riding in my Dads old Stang. Excellent handling, good sounds (both exhaust and Shaker 500), love the front end. Love this car!

    It is a Blast to drive every single time!! Truly feels like you are in a 67 fastback! Only problem Ive had with it is the oxygen sensor going out, but not to worry Its a GREAT car! The A/C blows SUPER cold, I never have to use the full power of it. It has plenty of horsepower, in fact when the light turns green its a struggle not to laugh and spin the tires leaving the Prius next to you in your rear view mirror. Mine has a borla exhaust that produces a sound second to none! It is extremely reliable and never lets you down. If you are not having fun with this car you are doing something wrong!

    LOVE this car, have had almost a year now and love it more every day. Dont need the GT to get your heart rate up, this V6 flies. No disappointments here.

  • Awesome! - 2005 Ford Mustang

    Ive got my Mustang less than two weeks ago, but Im having such a blast driving it. The acceleration is superb and drives comfortable in the big city since it isnt so big. I live in L.A. and drove around Santa Monica and Beverly Hills where you see pricey Ferraris, BMWs and Mercedes galore, but this 30k car caught all the attention. I also love the Shaker 1000.

  • Terrible! - 2005 Ford Mustang
    By -

    I cant keep this car out of the shop. Rear end AND tramission been replaced twice, trunk swicth, stereo as well, seat belts wont unlock sometimes, and battery dies often. Ford doesnt want to do anything about it. Interior looks good but is cheap plastic and rattles ALL the time. I was a ford mustang guy until i got this car. Oh yeah, pumping gas takes forever.

    This is a great car, and lots of fun to drive. First sports car Ive ever had, and let me tell you it is very powerful. You really have to use the cruise control to maintain legal speed. You dont feel like your speeding. I have the Red Fire Red with standard 17 inch wheels, standard interior with Shaker 500 system, which sounds great. I have 6300 miles on it, and I have not had any problems with it. Overall, it is a great car to drive and just go cruising. Lots of people come up to me and want to look and hear the machine. Gas mileage is not too good, but reasonable. One minute negative is that the amplifier gets very hot with the windows down and you can feel it in your legs.
