1993 Ford Mustang LX Coupe review from North America
"Experts not beginners drive rear wheel drives!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have noticed that the paint on the roof is fading to black (or chipping) in pin-point spots within a month of purchase from the dealership.
General comments?
I totally love my 1993 Ford Mustang. Of all the cars I have seen at used car lots, this was a no-brainer steal.
However, I should have known that beginning drivers need not apply for the driving position in this vehicle. The over-steer is totally off the charts and sent me flying off the road recently. Being young and inexperienced, I decided to take a 90 degree turn (on a back road) with this baby at about 30 miles per hour with wet tires and the rest is history. I ended up upside-down in a ditch on the other side of the road.
The funny thing is, this car runs like a dream even after the roll-over. All this talk about weak factory jobs is senseless. Mustangs were built Ford Tough!
Due to the roll-over the vehicle now has a severe dent on the rear-right corner near the trunk that is about two inches squared. Also, there is a three foot scratch along the passenger side door that shows a little bit of metal and some denting on the rear passenger wheel base. The roof sustained several four inch square dents, but no scratches.
However, none of this is noticable when driving at night.
The Mustang is all stock except for my custom sound system, which gains the envy of pedistrians on the sidewalks and makes the homies in their plain old Hondas bow down.
