How many original 05 owners still around?
I still have my original GT that I've been daily driving since may 15th 2006 and its been rock solid the entire way through despite me driving it like a maniac for the first two years straight of ownership.

legend forever
We bought a Nov 04 mustang in feb 05, legend lime 4.0, fixed and modded until we started wanting a GT, went out and got 12/04 Legend lime GT, passed the 4.0 on to my best friend, the gt has been modded just as much, 100K on both cars. I wont trade em in, possible new stang later, but this will be my first keeper.
Despite 2 small accidents and one major, Angelina is still alive and kicking - HARD! I love this Mustang and don't see parting with her for a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG time to come! Not the fastest nor the prettiest but she's mine all mine!
SONIC BLUE FTW!
Picked my 05 up the day before Thanksgiving in 04 also. I've managed to put a whooping 20k miles on it. Seriously though the best thing is it's bought and paid for. I'm thinking about laminating my title.
Bought in March of 05 and nearly 55k later she is still sitting pretty in the driveway. Still enjoy rolling the windows down with the remote and listening to the exhaust. Once its paid off, FI and brakes will go to the top of the list.
Bought my 07 off a lot new in May 07 and although I toyed with the idea of "upgrading" to a GT500, I like my current payment (which is only modding money since mine was paid off on day one) and will probably keep this car a long time. Only 8.5K logged thus far, but should be adding another zero this coming season
I came very close in the Fall of 04.. but the stealerships all tried to hit me up for retarded markups ($3 - $5k).
It went as far as them trucking in a GT Prem 5M vert (I originally wanted a vert till I saw a coupe with the SHR louvers) from Virginia for a price we agreed upon. The day my GT showed up I went in to sign the paperwork and saw (in very small print) $4500 added to the bottom line. When I asked about it the salesmen got his manager who acted like I was inconveniencing him by asking about the $4500 & tried to push me to sign.. Finally he said "It's what these cars are bringing in, if you don't want to pay it, we'll just sell it to the next guy".
I walked out.
The manager was yelling something about me paying for the transport of the GT. I turned and replied something to the effect of "With what these cars are going for, I'm sure the next guy won't mind paying for it.."
Ended up working out better for me. I custom ordered my 08 in Aug 07.. took till Oct 30th (roughly) to show up and I took delivery with 1.3 miles on the OD. ^.^
