Awesome Car

It?s got a little spots where the paint is peeling, but overall it?s a good car. Everything works, blows COLD AC, and love to ride with the top down.

Loved it but time to move on

Fun car to own and great car to learn about maintenance. Parts are easy to find but car is very small. No room for a family

A very fun car

A hoot to drive, a blend of old and new technology, easy to work on, parts are inexpensive killer looks with shaker hood scoop. 5sp manual, with precise shifts.

Fun car, Powerful and Fast!

I love the body style and the power this mustang has. Great car for cruising. This car is really for two people because they rear seating is tight. Great car for the money

03 SVT Cobra

This car burst a lot of GM bubbles when first released. I was fortunate to buy one in 2004 and still have it to this day with 91k original miles on it. These cars have held their value and are now extremely hard to find which makes them not only fun to drive (mine was my daily driver); but also a solid investment. People still stop me in hopes that I'll sell her because other than the normal wear and tear from the road she's beautiful (Still have the original factory performance red paint that shines bright); but this car is a keeper. Yes they respond to mods right out of the box and mine is due to be modded yet again; not because I race it; but because she can (Very easy to work on). If your lucky enough to find one of these that hasn't been tortured to bad grab it while you can. You won't regret it.

Reliable car that has needed minimal repairs.

This car has had two owners. The second owner has owned the car for 10 years. It has been a reliable car needing minimal repairs. The car is in great aesthetic condition with the exception of the peeling paint on the hood.

The most fascinating car I?ve owed so far.

I entered the Mustang world via a 3.8 Lt. V-6 powered,convertible while my intentions are to eventually buy one with a v-8 ,for now this one has been great(the great thing about a Mustang is the sheer amount of options and models available),it was purchased for my commute to and from work and elsewhere,it is a spry,economical car to own.

Mustang

I have owned 2 Mustangs - a 1993, owned for 10 years, and my current 2003 Mustang - now at 135K miles. The Mustangs have been totally reliable and have run like a dream. On both, the only upkeep cost has been typical wear and tear of parts that have to be replaced on all cars. Start on a dime in the coldest weather, even after sitting outside all day at work. Great performance, heat and cool quickly, and are fun to drive. Only issue is the rear-wheel drive, which you must adapt to in slick weather.
