Not Worth the Headaches
After many years of driving GM's I started looking at the Ford Mustang!! The Transmission Blew at 31,000,the Tire Rods also had to be replaced and It has No Power for a V8 Engine!! Needless to say I have Happily Sold this Car(after wasting over $2,000 in repairs) and I am VERY Dissapointed in a Car w/Less than 32,000 Miles on it and It Literally Needs a Complete Ovehaul!! I Would Never Buy a Ford Agian!!!!Reality wise I can't call it a Muscle/Sport car since it's True Competition is the Mitsubishi Eclipse!!! The Need to Go back to the Drawing board and Re-Invent their Engine and Transmisson to seriously be a Contender to Chevy's Monsters!!!

This car is going to kill me. I swear to God it's the scariest car I've ever owned. I'm afraid to go over 45mph on the interstate especially if a drop of water is on the road. Changed the entire brake system, ball joints, fuel pump so far. Still. Scared.

Great Car!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have had this car almost 2 years, it was purchased for a work vehicle because we got a good deal. I love the great gas mileage and the performance, but again there is the tire issue. But luckily I have had great luck with the engine it has 90,000 and not any problems other than regular matienance. All together I have been greatly suprised by this peppy little machine.

I like the style and power but it is a small car
