Hello!
I am in the process of buying a 2005-2009 Mustang and I have been cruising the forums for info and this appears to be the best one. I hope to purchase said Mustang in January/February.
The last RWD cars I have had were a 1973 Corvette and 1972 Camaro - Time to change it up as we switched to Ford after purchasing our, then new, 2006 F-150.
Thanks for having me

Caveat Emptor
In my case after I put the dealership's feet to the fire I got back $528.00 which was the cost of the battery and starter motor repair. I recently shelled out $190.00 to have Dent King pull out two minor dings. The GT looks great now.
I am just telling you this so that you do not fall into the same pit of dealership dispair. Attached pic shows you some of the exterior defects.
There is a lot to be said for buying a brand new vehicle at least it does not come with defects. The internet price for the pre-owned 2007 GT was pretty good but the internet pictures as taken by the dealership did not show the damage.
The GT has since been reburbished and runs well.
looking forward to hearing about the car when you get it, and seeing some pics!

poldvr: I am sorry to hear about your experience. Caveat Emptor indeed. I always buy in person, new or used, my OCD would not allow me to do it any other way
UnkTob: Thanks! It was easy leaving GM after the Bail Out circus. I had been a Chevy guy for over 30 years. The wife loves the F-150 and it has been pretty trouble-free for ~120,000 miles. Still going strong.
I am looking forward to getting it and showing/talking about it here.
Merry Christmas!

It's official now. I found an all original 2006 GT Deluxe with the 5spd MT! Just what I was looking for and only 40 miles from my home. It is extremely clean and was pampered by a Forensics officer and I am the 2nd owner.
Awesome!
Pics are in my album.
