Edmunds Review:

“Enter the current Mustang, redesigned for 2005. The canted nose with its big grille and round headlights recalls the '67 to '69 Mustangs, while the side sculpting, fastback roofline and taillights recall those ponies of the 1965 vintage. Even the triangular side windows are reminiscent of what Carol Shelby did when he made the 1965 Mustang "2+2" (a.k.a. the fastback) into his Shelby GT 350. The Mustang's interior is unique and matches the exterior design theme. Obvious old-school influences are found in the instrument panel: A dual-hooded dash with aluminum accent panels pays obvious homage to the 1967-'68 Mustang, as do the big speedo and tach, circular air vents and plump, round steering wheel hub… changeable backlighting illuminates the nostalgic instruments; at the press of a button one can select from white, blue, green, and orange hues. For power… the GT packs a 300-horse, 4.6-liter V8 with variable valve timing. The suspension boasts a relatively supple ride and ultracrisp handling. Ford has done a fine job with the latest Mustang, not only in terms of styling, but also in performance, handling, ride dynamics and basic ergonomics. If you're looking for an affordable coupe or convertible that's fast and fun and comfortable enough to drive every day, this is your ride.”

2006 Mustang Overview:

The 2006 Mustang differed little from the 2005 model year. The GT kept its revised 4.6L SOHC V8 with 300 horsepower and 320ft/lbs of torque. 2006 was the first year for the optional Ford Pony Package that added grille-mounted fog lamps, 17'' wheels, a spoiler, and extra exterior decals and striping. A few new color and audio options were added for both trim levels, but kept the S197 body style with its retro-futuristic design philosophy that was inspired by first generation Mustangs.

Bottom Line: Why are we selling this beauty? Health issues for the wife are now precluding her ability to drive a stick shift. We need a vehicle that both of us can equally drive. Simple as that. We have thoroughly enjoyed this pony car until now and sadly are looking to part with it. We certainly think whoever buys it will be pleased with their purchase.

To the best of my ability I am accurately providing the details on this vehicle as I know them. I have done my best to describe everything as best I know them to be true. Any errors are purely accidental and unintentional.

To our knowledge this vehicle has never been in an accident or needed body, frame, or engine work performed beyond normal maintenance. Other than new and used dealers we think we are the third owners of the vehicle. While we have had this GT it has served as a semi-daily driver that’s been great fun to drive. So, this car does show the normal wear and tear to be expected of a vehicle its age and mileage. Primarily that involves minor paint chips in the front grill/bumper area and hood. Otherwise the paint is mostly flawless throughout the rest of the body.

The car has no leaks to our knowledge. We've not seen even a drop here or there. Everything appears tight.

In the spirit of truthfulness. Three known Mustang manufacturing flaws of this era that appear on various vehicles. Yep, this one has all three.

First, the door panel molding glue tends to fail and the panels droop. Both doors have been re-glued by Gary since ownership.

Second, the radio push buttons are losing their stencils. It is slightly unsightly but does not impede the functionality. The radio operates as it should.

Third, the CD player is not working, an internet search reveals this is a standard problem on many Mustangs of this era.

That said, this car has just been professionally
