2005 Ford Mustang review from North America
"SLOW! It's no performance car!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rust! Although they are only spots and not holes, they are still unexpected for the age of this car.
General comments?
For it being a V6, it is decent in terms of acceleration, however, it is not in the same league as the GT. If you would rate the performance of the GT a 10 on a scale of 10, then the V6 would be a 5.
I regret not getting the GT and will be trading it in in the fall for a 2010 Mustang GT. The reason I chose the V6 over the GT in 2004 was due to the salesperson convincing me that I would be happier in the V6 (since he was overstocked with V6's and had no GT's left in his lot).
