1990 Ford Mustang GT review from North America
"Best Mustang built since the 1967 Shelby GT500"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Had to replace the clutch at 153,000 miles.
Replaced the heater core at 149,000 miles.
General comments?
This car is fast, when you want power, it's always there.
Performance is cheap too, you spend about $40 and you can get a good 10-15 horsepower. Where you would have to spend like $100-$150 to get about 8-10 horsepower out of a little rice burner (import cars), and that's on sale! Ha Ha.
It's gotten me one ticket, but never lost a race. It could eat Honda's all day long.
The rides a little bumpy, but handles like a champ.
It's actually a small car and everything is visible because of the big windows, so it's pretty easy to drive.
It also gets pretty good gas mileage for a V8. I get about 220 miles to the tank in town, and 300 miles on the freeway. And that's not grandma driving it either. I love opening her up, it's a beautiful sound.
Other than that, I love my Stang! And I have big plans for it in the future.
