1991 Ford Mustang 2 Dr LX 5.0 Hatchback
Review
Great car. Built very well, never had any problems other than the usual replacing of water pump, hoses, and alternator after 80 or so thousand miles of driving. The alternator was actually due to not being able to handle my 750w amp and sound system. Vehicle is very easy to work on. Very light. Can't stress that enough, especially compared to todays vehicles. Not nearly as comfortable, but it does have something that todays cars lack, and that's raw excitement. Nothing today feels like the way you do when you stomp on the throttle and hear the 5.0 roar as it sinks you back and makes you feel as if your car is tearing through the wind and clawing at the asphalt. Very exciting.
Favorite Features
Light weight! Think of a Ford Focus, (Modern) Honda Civic, Nissan Sentra, etc. But with the hp and torque of an old school pushrod V8. Easy to work on design, huge aftermarket to increase performance to that of, or better than, modern performance. Large cargo space capability (hatchback). Timeless look
Suggested Improvements
No cupholders! Usual rust around the glass frames and hatch. Small width of rear tires don't stand a chance to the globs of torque this small V8 thumps out. Full length sub-frames help a ton with chasis creeks and groans along with a more comfortable ride, to me anyways. By todays standard, more HP.
Family owned since new.

Review
My wife's brother bought this car new. He gave it to our daughter when she turned 16. She drove it 3 years until her employer bought her a new pickup in 2007. She then gave it to our 16 year son. With the exception of several brake jobs and a few batteries It has done well. It now has 116K miles on it. It runs well, other than regular maintaince the drive train is untouched. It has had some cosmetic work (paint, upolstery, & top redone.) It has been a great car that the whole family has had fun with. Not too many cars last a buyer this long.
Favorite Features
5.0 engine, handling, looks.
Suggested Improvements
Cup holder, better radio, very stiff ride.
Great deal - great looks

Review
I bought this car years ago, from first owner who really cared for it. It had 135k miles, but looked great and ran really well. Owned as a second car, only put 20 k miles in 5 years, but never had any problems (surprised at the quality since everyone complains about American cars, me included!). If you can find a clean one they are a great ride, very fun and economical compared to the GT's that are usually beat, and eat gas. Great looks too!
Favorite Features
The ride is VERY comfortable for cruising with the top down - VERY FUN!
Suggested Improvements
Allow the seats to recline further (as the back seat is rarely used).

Review
The car is super fast! The handling is great, as well as everything else. 225 horse doesn't sound like much, but it uses all of them. That's for sure. If you find one with power everything, moon roof, and a five speed, it's like driving a really fast Caddy. Overall this truly is the best bang for your buck. I found mine for an even $3,000. It looks like it rolled off of the showroom floor. The best part is that with minor mods you can put this car in to the 300+ horsepower range. In '91 the engine is better than later years. You can also find parts much easier for this year.
Favorite Features
The horsepower, handling, and the looks.
Suggested Improvements
Stronger clutch.
Great Used car

If you are looking for a reliable used car, this is it. Very few problems if you maintain your car. Will only cost you money if you upgrade performance constantly, which usually happens.
Favorite Features
Easy to upgrade performance. Limitless possibilities!
Suggested Improvements
Fuel, but what do you want from a 5.0L.
