Sporty little 2 door

I purchased my 2006 Mustang V6 base with automatic trans with 120,000 miles on it, by 125,000 i put a new alternator ( common maintenance). at 130,000ish i had to replace the lower control arms b/c i felt every bump in the road....... By 140,000 i had to replace the Trans. Shift pressure solenoid. (common issue) other than that it has started every time i have drove it. has some nice getty up for a V6. The Vista Blue is definitely the best color for this car. Gets a lot of head turns and " Nice car man!" shouted to me as i leave a parking lot.

Good mustang for its age.

Great car. Simple and powerful. Not a fan of the XM radio device in the dash but it's no real issue. Good buy. Had a broken rear window heating element that wasn't mentioned but aside from that it's a solid buy.

A Lot of Fun

The Ford Mustang is a fun car to drive, has that sporty, sexy look to it, and is decent enough on gas for such a powerful car. The downsides? The maintenance is more than for that of a standard car, the back seat is not very practical, and it cannot be driven in the snow. Nothing beats cruising around in the Mustang during the summer months.

Extremely reliable, perfect first car.

Never had any serious issues driving this car from 60k-130k. Just regular maintenance and a few minor repairs. Cheap to fix or work on as well.

2006 Mustang GT Convertible: A great, fun commute

If you wan to get out of your boring day-to-day commute vehicle, the 2006 Ford Mustang GT convertible is a great choice: You can pass those snob BMW owners on the freeway in a heartbeat, without breaking your bank account!!! Let's face it: You spend 10-11 hours in a job you hate...Might as well enjoy the commute in and out of the hideous place called corporate america. Life is short, don't spend it on a hideous boring car....Have a nice life!!

Awesome American Muscle!!!

Great car, definately suited for a collector or pony car enthusiast!! This awesome car gets over 25mpg if your just cruising the highways. If you are driving through the mountains a bit less, never the less I have owned all kind of sports cars in my days, this one handles as good or better than most of them.. ,

GREAT LOOKING AND GREAT SOUND

Good looking car, Good sound with the right exhaust, great job shredding tires but slower than id like even in a straight line. However, its a good daily driver compared to some other "race" cars I've owned.

Fun drive. Has a lot of punch!

Great car for two people. Limited leg room in back. Generous trunk for a convertible. I love the look and feel of a Mustang and this car delivers a great experience.
