Reliable car, decent gas mileage, small car

This vehicle has yet to do me wrong. Maintenance is cheap, and insurance isn't too steep. Where the car lacks is gas mileage and size. I get about 280 miles on a full tank of gas driving on backroads. Not bad, but not great. My other issue is size. This car is not meant for moving things. It can seat 4 but not comfortably.

best muscle car for the money

this car is unique as less than 2,000 convertibles in 2004 were made. finding a factory vehicle of this caliber for the price is great.

Most reliable car I have owned, never failed me.

I think it is a very stylish car, this car is a warrior, even in the bad times the car still kept pushing to get me to the places I needed to me. Most reliable car I've had!

Overall awesome car

My '04 GT sounds and looks great, pretty comfortable, and is a blast to drive. Interior is a bit cheap but for a 13-year-old car, I am not too worried.

An awesome, affordable muscle car. Great condition

This car has a brand new clutch, it has an aftermarket exhaust that makes it rumble, and it's a blast to drive. Not one to pass up.

40th Anniversary of the Authentic American Muscle

Super clean car. I've never smoked or ate in this car since I've owned it--for 13 years! No kids, low mileage. I was a flight attendant so it sat in employee parking lot or my garage. Mach sound system. Leather interior. V6. Low mileage. Fuel economical. Overall, a great car for a teenager or someone who loves Mustang's!

Very nice all around suv

I was searching for a used Toyota Highlander online, and found a 2004 for sale at Dave's Used Car Sales. Since I live in New Jersey, I did'nt want to travel too far to buy a vehicle, and could'nt decide whether to drive out to see the Highlander, or stay closer to home in my search.I corresponded with Craig via email, and he offered to sell me the Highlander at a price that I thought was very reasonable. When I finally got to the sales office (a little late because of traffic and weather), he greeted me before I even entered the building. I actually decided to buy the Highlander prior to my drive out, but Craig made the car buying experience such a relaxing, enjoyable experience...something you don't normally expect when you're car shopping. When all of the paperwork was completed and I was ready to drive my Highlander home, I did'nt know how long it would take me to adjust to a different vehicle. Well, this SUV performed and handled better than I expected. I have to say that I'm glad that I went a bit out of my way and found Dave's Used Car Sales!

Best Sports Car For the Money

I bought my 2004 Ford Mustang GT with 75000 miles on it for under 10g and I could tell you that it was a great investment. The car is outstanding. The 4.6 litre V8 is very quick to respond at the touch of the throttle. Mine has the 5 speed which is intimidating at first sight because of it's funky angle, but it is a very good transmission that doesn't mind being driven hard. It pulls very quick too, if that's what your looking for. Gas mileage isn't a strong point but that's not what you expect out of a V8. Gets about 16 city 23 highway. If your good with it the tank can go a week and a half. Other than that though this car is wonderful. It's a fun drive, retains Mustang history, and is a real head turner. I love it everyday it is such a joy to drive. It doesn't handle the best but when are you going to need speed around turns? If you want better handling on this car it isn't hard to get. Just some aftermarket parts will help keep the rear end in line. I love it alot and will for time to come. Most affordable muscle car on the market for sure

my ragtop stang

love it. I drop the top every chance I get. 6 cylinder is plenty for me. I don't need to pull whole shots anymore (54) Deep burgundy (crimson red ) with a black top. Gotta good lookin blond wife (44) to tote around with me. If I could just get my 5 year old granbaby to let me drop the top when she's in it.
