It's been just over 7 months since I picked up my 2005 Mustang,
so I thought I'd give you a status report.
This is the best car I have ever owned. I love almost everything
about it, from the V6, to the Redfire paint, to the IUP and the
chrome spinners on the wheels.
I only have two complaints. The first is the placement of the
cupholders, which make it slightly difficult to use the shifter when
the cupholders are being used. The second problem is that the
Medium Parchment cloth seats badly stain even when touched only
by rainwater. They have been cleaned and Scotch-Guarded 3 times,
but they still stain. As soon as I find a good looking set of seat covers,
I'll put them on.
Other then these problems, my Mustang has been perfect. In fact,
if I had the cash, I would buy a convertible to go with it

Ditto, Packard400. My only complaint is the cheap metal spokes on the steering wheel. The only "major" complaint is the DTI FUEL ERR Message on the display. Turns out the fuel sensor is shot which means the gas tank has to be dropped to fix the problem, this also means about six hours in the shop. Thank god for the warranty.

1. The seatbelt cut into my neck until I got this little clip thingy at Wal-Mart to move it to the left. 2. There is NO storage except for the console, unless you include the back seat, which isn't good for much else. 3. It's always saying "50 miles till empty". Other than that, the car is perfect!

Hey Mark I cant agree anymore, it is one fun fun fun machine to drive, I am heading back to the dealer this weekend to have the remote start installed before old man winter comes knocking at the door and I am having the IUP Mustang sill plate inlaid with the vinyl decals
Being 6' 4" the only complaint I have is the sharp edge of the trim next to the radio it digs into my knee, that should have been rounded over
Here is my vert after washing it last weekend, perfect time for a photo
shoot, so I took advantage of it
