We just delivered a 2005 Mustang GT to a customer who is 92 years old. That is not a typo, 92.

Holy cow! He was in his 50's when the first ones came out! Late-life crisis? LOL

He was going to wait for the 2007 SVT, but decided he might not make it!

One dealership I went to said they have a guy who is 90 and he owns a 03 Cobra. They say its the funniest thing ever but they bust his chops for going so slow in it haha.

Wow! I don't even KNOW a person in their 80's or 90's that I would trust driving, let alone driving a 300 hp MuscleStang!

People that age that I see on the road shouldn't even have a license to drive (assuming that they DO) based on the way they drive.

Hopefully, Mr. 92 Year Old Mustang owner will hear the blinker going off and get over if he's one of those 'drive in the passing lane at 50mph' types.

:dance: :dance:

That's awesome. I see a guy down at the drags every once in a while who is at least 70. He drives a nine-second early 60's Nova. That's who I want to be if I make it that far...
