| Price of the Ford Mustang: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2012 | 2dr Coupe 305-horsepower 3.7L V6 6-speed manual RWD |
Less than $25k out the door w/ all taxes & other BS ain't bad for a 300hp car that drives this well and this fast. |
| 2011 | 2dr Coupe 412-horsepower 5.0L V8 6-speed manual RWD |
2 thousand dollars less than its competitors. |
| 2010 | 2dr Coupe 210-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed manual RWD |
The 2010 in December was a great price! Even though this is my fun vehicle ( I have eight others, I can easily afford the payments and insurance. Actually, adding this to the "fleet" only added an addition $53 to my six-month premiums. |
| 2007 | 2dr Coupe 300-horsepower 4.6L V8 5-speed manual RWD |
I can't believe how reasonably priced this car was. |
| 2005 | 2dr Coupe 210-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic RWD |
Alot of car "fun to drive" for a really good price. |
| 2005 | 2dr Coupe 300-horsepower 4.6L V8 5-speed manual RWD |
Cheap for the performance level, and cheap to own long term. |
| 2002 | 2dr Coupe 190-horsepower 3.8L V6 5-speed manual RWD |
Very cheap car for the performance and styling even in the 6 cylinder model. |

| 2010 | 2dr Coupe 315-horsepower 4.6L V8 5-speed manual RWD |
More expensive than the V6, may not be in everyones price bracket. |

| 2009 | 2dr Hatch 332-horsepower 3.7L V6 6-speed manual RWD |
Half the price of the Cayman, terrific performance at the price. Has all the performance goodies (hot engine, 6 speed manual, forged wheels, limited slip differential, big brakes) albeit at a step down in quality from the Porsche |
| 2007 | 2dr Convertible 306-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
Price is amazing for all the options included and the performance. The car is a rocket. Leather eated seats, heated mirrors, 6 cd changer, gripper brakes, nice ride and great handling. |
| 2007 | 2dr Hatch 306-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed manual RWD |
I got a good car at a good price. |
| 2005 | 2dr Hatch 300-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed manual RWD |
If you are looking for a sport car this the most bang for the money you can get. |
| 2004 | 2dr Convertible 287-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
Practically a bargain nowadays when purchased used. |
| 2003 | 2dr Hatch 287-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
Every other car out there is either slower around a track, or costs more than the 350Z. |
| 2003 | 2dr Hatch 287-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
reasonable pricing |

| 2010 | 2dr Hatch 332-horsepower 3.7L V6 6-speed manual RWD |
Too little car for what Nissan asks. What it does, it does really well, just not at a 10-15k premium over the Genesis |
| 2009 | 2dr Hatch 332-horsepower 3.7L V6 7-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
The price was a bit too much for the car, I paid the same price for the Infiniti. |
| 2007 | 2dr Hatch 306-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
not cheap |
| 2005 | 2dr Hatch 287-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
i feel like the car is just slightly over-priced on its own merits, but when compared to other vehicles in its class it appears very affordable. |
| 2003 | 2dr Hatch 287-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed manual RWD |
Generally they are expensive. I got mine for a great price however. |
