The current 4.0 V6 is faster than a 69 Boss 429, faster than a Bandit Edition 6.6 liter Trans Am, faster than the venerable 65 Mustang 289 Hi Po, and way faster than every Mustang II ever made.
It is as fast as the legendary 87 Mustang GT, and as fast as the 87 IROC Z28.
I think we're in pretty good company because I can remember when most of these cars were brand new. lol
PS, it's also much faster than a stock 1994 Mustang V6 which had the staggeringly impressive times of 9.9 and 17.3. lol

That's still the msrp on it. So there's plenty of room for negotiation. Ask them to come back with a price for you. Under 20 would be a pretty good deal I'd think?
Edit is this still available: http://www.drivefordtoday.com/vehicl...5168|225383484
punch in your zip code... offers 1000 bonus cash in your area.

I found my daughters car Kona Blue, Auto, base V6 with alarm for $17.900 back in April. I am sure you can find what you are loooking for for the price you want. Don't give up on it.
By the way she loves the car!

You always hear about how slow the 4.0 is. It's certainly not as fast as the GT obviously, but I think we need to have some historical perspective that is longer than the last 4 or 5 years on this subject.
The current 4.0 V6 is faster than a 69 Boss 429, faster than a Bandit Edition 6.6 liter Trans Am, faster than the venerable 65 Mustang 289 Hi Po, and way faster than every Mustang II ever made.
It is as fast as the legendary 87 Mustang GT, and as fast as the 87 IROC Z28.
I think we're in pretty good company because I can remember when most of these cars were brand new. lol
PS, it's also much faster than a stock 1994 Mustang V6 which had the staggeringly impressive times of 9.9 and 17.3. lol

But can assure you it''s not faster than the 225 hp 5.0 liter 1987 Mustang GT

Oh read carefully now, I didn't say it was faster, I said "as fast". Technically the 87 is a bit faster at 6.4 and 14.8 while the 4.0 V6 is about 6.8 and 15.3. I know on the drag track that's a noticeable difference but on the street where most of these cars live its very close. But no the 4.0 is not faster than the 87 GT, but it's close enough that I wouldn't be calling it a slug. That's all I"m saying. Also to be fair the 4.0 is only faster than the Boss 429 in the 0 to 60 time. The Boss was 7.1 in the 0 to 60 time but once that big block really got up a head of steam it took off. the 1/4 mile was 13.6. Still that puts the 4.0 in some pretty impressive company. If we were talking numbers like 9.9 and 17.3 like the mid 90's 3.8 V6 than I would say ok it's a slug. But at 6.8 and 15.3, it's pretty good.
