1985 Ford Mustang GT review from North America
"If you want a fast car buy a Mustang, but if you want a slow car buy a Honda"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Considering that the car was driven like it was made to be the only thing that went wrong was the passenger side head gasket blew September 30, 2002. Other than that the car has ALWAYS held up to the abuse.
General comments?
I am the second owner. My father purchased the car brand new in 1985. Right now it is all stock except for the rims which are aftermarket. It is quicker than a lot of stock Mustangs that I raced.
