1990 Ford Mustang LX review from North America
"A great all around performance car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only problem I've had with my 5.0 is the transmission.
General comments?
The car is a sunny day car only, it doesn't see snow or rain. In the summer we take it on trips, and to the drag strip every now and then.
I have added the usual performance products, and the car is pretty reliable.
I upgraded to a Tremec 3500 transmission when the stock T-5 fragged.
The car could be a little more comfortable on long trips, but the thrill of driving it makes you forget about comfort.
