Low mileage.

A fun car to drive. Local driving only. Kept in a garage. Lived the Mustang convertible so much that we have traded up to a 2017 model.

Finest vehicle I've ever owned, over (50)+

True example of an American "Icon". A dream to drive, great styling with great history. These Mustangs' are built to be driven 200,000 miles +. This beauty has never seen any wet pavement, The undercarriage is like it was the day it was built, nine years ago. This Bullitt # 5441 is destine to appreciate in value. With only 14,081 "pampered" miles it's on its way.

The Mustang Lives

This Mustang has been an awesome experience, the car is fun, easy on fuel, maintenance is easy and straight forward. FoMoCo nailed it in 2005 to 2009. The car gets comments everywhere I go

2008 Mustang GT

So much bang for your buck! Aggressive styling, comfortable, but zero legroom in the back unless you have small children.

Meant to be Driven! Ageless Head-turner!

Driving a "Shelby GT500" is an awesome experience every time! Always get a thumbs up every time I go on the road. This version is to me the best "retro" modern version of the legendary Mustang GT500. Being a rag top makes it even more fun, whether a drive to the store; a long drive on a curvy country road or a hot lap around a Speedway oval or Road course. Nearly 600 hp and 509 Lbs of Torque of Cobra Snake excitement under the hood that provides all the excitement you can handle! This snake has won a Mustang Club of America GRAND NATIONAL award in class and continues to get the oohs and awe's and awards at every car show we attend. The upgraded 19" Charcoal wheels added a great new color matched look and made this snake event meaner looking. Under the hood stops every passer by with all the Shelby and Steeda billet and performance add-ons. A show car, a race car, a high performance demon, an exciting and pleasure to drive. I will miss this beautiful Shelby GT 500 ragtop.

Driving it now.

The 2008 ford Mustang GT is a good reliable vehicle that can also deliver a punch. Now it is not the fastest vehicle, however, it has a lot of torque and can get those rear wheels loose pretty easily. This is not a car for everyone, but if you like a loud car that you can have some fun in this is the one for you!

Worst rattle trap I ever drove

The convertible with 20" low profile tires rides really hard and rattles excessively. It was a tin can compared to other cars I have owned. I got rid of it.

Surprisingly spacious and quick

Excellent leg room, handles well, gets good mileage for the power and model year. Comfortable interior, but the back seats are tiny. Overall an excellent combination of performance and usability for the price

2008 Mustang Convertible

This vehicle is so fun to drive especially with the top down. Couldn't be happier with it. What better way to drive than with viewing the sky above. This car has never broken down and was always rock solid.

My Red Sonia (Mustang)

I miss my GT so bad. I drive an Elantra now. Granted it's new, but my Mustang. There's simply no better feeling that horsepower flowing through the steering wheel into your hands. The sound of a magnificent exaust system rumbling in your ears, and the ability to put the accelerater to the floor and hear the engine roar to life, devastating my heart with its need for speed. My need for speed. The ride was unforgettable, seats hugged my body like a race car. No five point harness but none was needed. I didn't drive that crazy. I had the standard transmission five speed which was the only choice for me when it comes to a GT Mustang. You just can't have an automatic, it'd ruin the experience. Response was immediate. Sure gas mileage wasn't that great, but that was particularly my fault I think. I loved to hear that exaust a little too much. I owned this car for three wonderful years. I'll never forget it and I hope to have another someday.
