| 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. |
