2008 Ford Mustang V6 Premium Convertible

Pros

Fun and Pretty

Purchased As Used

I won't say this is the best car but in its price range it might be the most fun. The price, performance and looks fit the world I live in to a T. That is the real world, not fantasy land where price is no object are there are no speed limits. The complaints I see here are silly; its a retro car, not an attempt at a techie transportation appliance. Mine has 36k and looks and drives as new. Want a smoother ride, comfy back seat, "refinement" and dignity? Get a lexus for more than twice the money and no fun, but as one reviewer said the mustang is "undiginified". I've owned several sports cars and a couple Mercedes and I'll takes this over any of them....read morehide

Pros

You must be joking

Cons

210 HP from 4.0L engine?!!!

I'm surprised of the power/engine volume ratio of this car. I have an european diesel car which gets 207 HP from 2.7L diesel engine. We had such ratios on petrol engines 20 years ago.
For petrol engines we have a now ratio of 100HP per Litre, so an European car with an engine this size will have 400HP.
Are all the american "supercars" that performant?...read morehide

Pros

Aggressive stance, great looks, awesome dash, fun to drive

Cons

It's a Ford... I'm a Chevy guy

Went down to Port St. Lucie to see the Mets for spring training and I thought "Let's rent a convertible". The most affordable one was the Mustang. As a true Chevy guy I was reluctant but was very happy when bus stopped in front of the car.
It really has brought back the true Mustang heritage. Gone is the sweet and innocent version of the late 90's and the juiced up, 'roid head 5.0 GT's of the 80's. With class and style Ford was able to bring back the true pony car that was the 69 Mustang.
If it not for the fact that Chevy is bring back the Camaro, I would probably on line at a Ford dealership to sign at the bottom line.
I will look back at my time in South Florida in Feb '08 with joy, remembering driving the palm lined boulevards with my Mustang convertible....read morehide
