This car is great and nothing could be better on it. It turns heads, it's fast, and it's fun to drive. Nothing makes you smile more than walking out the door and seeing your stang in the parking lot...I've been told it looks like the only car in the lot because it drowns everything else out. What more could you want?!

I have a 2002 GT with a 5 speed manual and I love it. I don't think you can get a better bang for the buck. The slight notchy feel lets you know your in gear, seats are comfortable The controls are simple and easy to reach and the sound that comes from under the hood is music to my ears. A deep growl that lets you know you have a few horses there. And at highway speeds, in 5th, the engine is barely breaking a sweat. If you want to pass, drop it a gear and BANG, your gone. With a nice set of winter tires, and the traction control, snow is not much of an issue.

The new Mustang is a great little car. All around performance,quality, styling, and the way the car is equipped is fantastic. I have had several Mustangs and this is the best overall. I am amazed at the number of people that comment on how great it looks.

This car is definitly for the speed junky. It's a smooth cruising 390 hp stock. 40 more hp and ten thousand dollars less than the vette. If you you really want to fly, add the SVT Exhaust and the Lightning s/c pulley. With those two mods it'll make approx 450 hp at the wheels. What a car....

Before I bought my mustang I thought, "This is a cute car but, just not for me." All the salesman had to say was, "Just take it for a spin!" After I drove the car I understood what he meant. Everything about this car was meant to please the driver. I am absolutely in love with my car and have no intentions of ever trading it in.

I have driven and owned many different mustangs in the past 15 years. The Cobra I just bought surpasses them all by leaps and bounds. No it's not a BMW or Mercedes. However, it is a very fun car and not necessarily for the faint of heart or light of foot. If you can, go buy one today! It's a blast!

Mach 1, a retro dream.

In true Ford fashion, the Mustang Mach 1 has been reborn. It is everything the original was, if it were to be made today. A working shaker hood, 17" heritage wheels, "comfort weave" seats and a 305hp (45 more than the GT) 4.6L engine to power it. This is a retro muscle car lovers dream. I have loved mine since the first mile I test drove it, and with every mile thereafter. It is a thing of beauty with a hint of beast lurking underneath!

Its flashy, & affordable, but lower quality than most. The technology should improve with the new 2005. I feel the car is underpowered & wish I would have waited & bought a Cobra. I am regularly beat by import cars 0-60 with even 6 cyl motors ??? BMW's etc..

Don't get me wrong, this car is fast fun, and a performer, but i've had some problems with it. Firstly it has been in the shop about 5 times already, once with a computer malufunction in the transmission, another for new struts, thirdly for another computer malfunction continually stating to service, fourthly for a faulty alternator and lastly was a power windows malfunction. The car is fast but for only a little bit more other sport cars become available that seem to have the stang beat.

I've owned 4 Mustang GT's and this new Mach 1 beats them all, except in the gas mileage category. It's fast, relatively comfortable, given the very stiff suspension, and gets looks like it's an exotic car! The fit and finish is excellent and only several minor issues have become evident, the shaker scoop rattle and the passenger seat door rub, both easily corrected by the dealer.

Great car to drive. Unreal power. Miles ahead of the '98 Cobra I had before this one. K&N cold air kit, Bassani cat-back exhaust and a Predator computer tune really improved the already good power.

Awesome peformance for the money. If fun and performance is your game,and you have a family (need a back seat) and can't afford an M3, this is the only car for you. Z06 like performance with a back seat and convertible that even average Joe enthusiast can afford.

Muscle Car Returns

I grew up during the muscle car era when they ruled main streets all over America. With the mid- 70s oil crisis muscle cars slowly faded away. Finally, John Coletti, another baby boomer finally resurrected the power and feel of a muscle car. With a 2004 Mustang GT, I had to shift down to 3rd gear to get decent torque and yet feel more power in 6th gear on the highway for passing in the SVT Cobra, making highway driving a dream! The SN95 is the ultimate aerodynamic body style ever made for the Mustang and from the front, nothing beats the 03-04 SVT Cobra fascia. Compared to all other performance cars this is the ONLY one you could get new for under $40,000.

For a V6 automatic, this car is fun to drive. Seems Hard to find standards (probably because everyone buys them up). Handling is great, acceleration is great, but you can't help but want the V8 or even the Cobra. Decent pricing, very possible to get payments under 400/month. The best part has to be the look that comes with the Mustang prestige.

The car is great but ford will not take care of the product when something does go wrong with the car. I have some molding issues as well as interior issues and they will not fix the problem because they say it is cosmetic problems. Be sure this is the car you really want because when something goes wrong it takes an act of congress to get it fixed.

If you have an aggressive yet skilled driving style, this car is for you! I've owned a V6 mustang and although it was the fastest V6 i've ever driven it pales in comparison to the V8 GT. Its complete unadulterated Power!, and to think that there are Mustangs even faster than the GT. Guess im going to start saving for the Cobra ;-)

This little car has pickup and speed that will not take a back seat to any car. It is just plain fun to drive. The sound system is the ultimate best. The car holds to the road on curves and corners like a sports car. I had a V8 Mustang,1992, and it could not hold the road like this one. Let the "Elite" waste their money on those over priced foreign jobs, I'm totally satisfied with my Mustang.
