I loved this car

I loved to drive this car. I had to sell it but I definitely miss it! It was easy to handle and drive, the engine sounded fun, the speakers system as well. And the top down was so good!

Good Bang for the Buck

Although not my first Mustang GT, this is my first of the 05-09 S197 body style. EXTERIOR: Absolutely no complaints. Love it. Great retro styling. Mine came with the GT scoop, spoiler, 18" polished aluminum rims, etc. INTERIOR: Lousy glove box and terribly placed cup holders. I like buying a large coffee on the way to work in the morning and the cup placement interferes with my shifting. ENGINE/DRIVE TRAIN: Pretty anemic in the lower RPM bands but it does wake up around 3500 RPM or so. Surprised that Ford hadn't dealt with this by 2009. My earlier GTs had the same issue. Shifter is sloppy but that is to be expected from stock stuff. I will be replacing mine with the Hurst Competition Plus very soon. Same with exhaust - getting rid of the stock exhaust this weekend. It just doesn't have much of a muscle sound. OVERALL: It's not a terribly quick car but it is fun to drive and stylish on the cheap. My vista blue GT gets thumbs-ups from other drivers almost daily.

Lack of response in the low end

Beautiful car. Just purchased a low mileage 09 GT. The interior is not as ergonomically good as it could be but tolerable. My biggest beef is the lack of "get-em-up-and-go" in the low bands as I would have expected. It does get up and boogie in the 3500rpm and above range after getting out of 2nd gear. Overall I dig the car. Just plan on making a few mods to get it to come alive after you buy it.

The 2009 GT Mustang is worth every dollar I spent.

Having owned 4 Mustangs, this one is in a class by itself. I love the way it drives, the mellow sound from the exhausts, music to my ears. To top that, this mustang is a 5 speed manual and 45th anniversary edition. You'd have to drive one to understand what I'm saying.

Enjoyable Experience

This is a ford mustang 2009 premium package 45th anniversary edition. Perfect sports car for value. Car was bought in very good condition with a mach 1 trim package done by ford before purchased by the original buyer. One of a kind from what I have seen. I've gotten many compliments and have also had people taking pictures of my car when I was cruising the beaches in PC. I love the power and look of this car. The only thing I can complain about are rattles and the door trim peels off.

2009 Mustang GT, Well it could have been worse

I owed a Mustang for quite a few years, Many drives and so many times filling the fuel. most cars driving as fast as me were hybrids, you would think that with the money on the car and the amount of gas it burns you could fly to the moon, I was wrong. All in All its ok, something that I would give an Ex wife or 16 year old daughter. not a mans car.
