I went to the dealer to see if they had any 2005 Mustang GT's in Colorado Springs, CO. One had just arrived. They cleaned it up and put it in the showroom. I haggled for about 3 hours. They made an offer, I readily accepted but the owner stepped in and said NO! I left. I was driving away and the salesman came and got me. They apologized and gave me the deal.

2005 Black Clearcoat GT Premium
17" machined wheels
IUP
Shaker 1000 (sounds awesome!!)
Side seat airbags
Leather
Traction Control

$28,945


I can't believe it! I already put a hundred miles on it tonight!

I don't know how many amps there are?! There are huge speakers on the doors, and some 6x9 looking ones on the top of the rear seats. Then 2 subs in the trunk.
I don't know what you mean by the "dot matrix"

I can answer that, Brad actually confirmed that the rear window does have the same "dot-matrix" as previous models. Same as the side windows

I hate it too :angry:

Medium parchment is really sweet with the black interior. There were so many posts about how people thought the interior was cheap and flimsy...I can't see how they would think that! I feel like I am sitting in a luxury car. The seat is really comfortable too.

So I don't like one thing so far.... I have to reach like 2 feet back to get the seat belt!! what the heck.

Congrats. Man, every interior color looks good with black. And I'm trying so hard not to buy another black car...

In the owner's manual case, it came with, of course, the owner's manual, a quick reference guide to use all the controls (everythings way different), and .....

An interactive CD-ROM that introduces you to the car! Pretty cool.
