Man, you too? I feel better now.

2005 GT
37 years old.
V8 1960's style and it reminded me of my Grandpa's 1965 Fastback.
This is what it looked like.

I'm 42 and I got my Mustang because........ I was doing a Starsky and Hutch 75 Grand Torino and I was getting pissed that everytimeI would work on it, something would come up and I would have to spend the money on something else..... So one day I told my wife that if I could get a New Mustang that I would get rid of the Torino......So the next day we're at the Dealer buying the Mustang. As I am sigining the papers, she tells me now you have to sell the Torino. I was sad to see the Torino go because I never finshed it but now I have my Mustang and Love it!

Im 17 and this is my first car ever. V6 though, but its stilla mustang. Ive always like engines and workin on cars and such, you know the deal...The mustang is just an easier platform for me to work and practice on then say, an audi....I fell in love when I was 14 at the 2003 or 2004 NY auto show whereI first saw her and, "I want one in 2006 whenI drive." NowI have one, and mayI say it will not be the last. Start small, think big, go big. V8

Because I was in a rush to buy a new car and it was ****ing beautiful :D. I'm 20.

iwas 24 when i got my first 05 v6 and 24 when i got my 05 gt i got it because it was and is the perfect car, thier is true history in this car, before it was and after

I'm 28, and I researched cars for several months, and test drove several of them. Some of the others I was considering;Nissan 350Z, Mazda RX 8, Infiniti G35, Mitsubishi Lancer Evo, Subaru WRX Sti, and several others. To me, the sound and power (especially torque) of the Mustang is what won me. I loved the redesigned look when the 05's came out (my brother had a 96, then an 04), and when I sat in one and drove it, I was in love. Still am. No complaints what so ever on this car. It's a vast change from my '03 Nissan Sentra SER SpecV show car...

I am 25 and really bought it because it was a gorgeous car, and well I just couldn't help but make it look even better. I am living my life through my mustang ;)

I'm 16, and I got it because its american muscle baby... It also touches roots with its predecessors.

Viva La Mustang!

17. Bought it because I needed a car and that car had to be a Mustang. Love the retro look as well. Would have gone for the v8 power as well but couldn't afford the insurance. Can barely afford it now as it is!

20 here, i got it cuse i gort a new job and could finaly afford one, i loved them since they came out with the 05+ never thought i would be able to afford one so soon, then the past summer i got a new job that I LOVE.

heres the story, im driving home from work one day going past the ford dealership and i see this mean looking Grabber Orange GT, WAS LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT at that point i knerw the car was mine from the momment i saw it, within a few days paper work was signed.

when i was little(around 9)my big brother had a HIGHLY MODDED 92' 5.0 he drove me everywhere in that thing, he just sold it a few years ago... i carry the tradition on now [8D]only i dont plan selling for a very... very... long time:D

21......bought it because I wanted one....didn't really need a new car, but I saw it and fell in love with it. Plus, the mods you can put on are endless, I will never get board with the car becase I can take pride in truly making her unique. [sm=yeahsmile.gif]I love American made muscle and the heritage that goes along with them. No imports here...EVER !!

what is the age of the 05-07 mustangs and why did you buy it
Well the 05 is almost 3, the 06 is almost 2 and the 07's will be one soon.

Lol, smart ass[8D]

Were you asking the ages of the owners?

I'm 29, bought the car because I like muscle cars, the '07 Mustang has that retro look while still filling a style of "new and different", and because it was an affordable car that I could get myself into (Chargers are about $10k more for the Hemi powered one, and I could get 2 Mustangs for the cost of a Corvette).

Yes, it's heck trying to keep the tank filled and my foot off the gas, but this car is a BLAST to drive!:D

Just turned 40 and I bought it as my mid-life crisis gift to myself. :)

I'm a cheap bastard, or I'd have gotten a GT. :D

Im 18 i got it mainly because i fell it love with it when i saw it and always wanted a powerful car that turned heads and most people my age are into the imports and what not so i def felt like it was a change and i just love everything about it ..... i love how ive been able to take the retro look and kind of combine it with a new school flavor.

I'm 33, and it was love at first site. And, oh yeah, it was also because of the small penis thing.

16 v6 first car as well. love working on cars. brother has a 2004 v6 competition orange and loves it. when i first saw this car in concepts i loved it. i also always wanted an old muscle car, but my dad says....no airbags, no abs....not happening. so closest thing to it. no regrets. and no one say the v6 is slow.

I'll be 60 on January 8. Someone totaled my work car, and I had to buy another one. I asked myself, "what kind of car do I want?" And the answer was Mustang GT. So I bought it. I'm happy with the size of my body parts, BTW.

When the '05 Mustang came out I knew that I had to have one. But I did not want the first year of the "S197". I also own a 1967 GT Mustang that I bought in 1975 when I was a junior in High School. So my "07 is my 40 years later Mustang. :DI am a little early with my midlife crisis Mustang, [&:]50 is 13 months away. [:@]My '67 needs a lot of work and I am stealing funds for it and putting it in my '07. [sm=yikesomg.gif]fd

hopefully i can buy a 2045 mustang if thats in existence. I hope i never have to sell my car

I am 29 yrs old, My first car was an 88gt 5spd, so I always had a soft spot for them. The S-197 is the first one since the fox that I flipped over. I love the retro fastback styling, the guages the 3 valve,that's what one me over. Since I bought New and got 0% for 72, I will keep this car forever. Thats saying alot!!

That's always the ways with the classics, man...I've got funds that could be going in to a rebuild on my '74 Vette and my '67 Jaguar, that are now going into monthly payments on my GT. :) It's a never ending cycle, man!

But I gotta love my new GT...SWEET car. If the engine ever dies out of warranty, maybe I'll slap in a 302 and build it up. :)

I was 20 and have always loved mustangs. When I saw the new one, I just knew that I had to get one. They're just beautifull!

AHHH BIB is back!! Hows it been man? Long time no talk lol.

O, and I got my car because.. well lol, thats kind of self explanatory.

I am 43, was looking to buy a Stang for the past 10 yrs...and actually almost bought a 67 last year but it was too pricey. Then I made up my mind, went to the dealer and bingo...mission accomplished. Love the Stang and everything that it stands for...

2005 V6, I'm 20. Reason: the best all around package. Cheaper than other cars I was looking at, looks better than the competition, and has a decent amount of oomph!

I'm 57. I had two 66 Mustangs, one with a V8 and stick, an 85 Mustang GT 5.0, 5 speed and now my 06 GT with 5 speed manual. I am curious what the 2026 model will look like.

I realize that by todays definition, this is a muscle car, but I don't consider it a muscle car since I hadoriginal muscle cars in the sixties and seventies.

I wanted one the first time I saw the pictures of the S197, but it took me a few years to get my budget ready for it and to wait for the bugs to be worked out.

My car is Wine Red (whatever they call it) with the 18" polished Bullit wheels.

BTW, I don't need Viagra and I have no problem with the size of my body parts. Luckily my wife of 32 years needs no help either and she also is happy with my body parts. So, I'm driving a powerful, manual transmission carand have a good sex life. Life can get no better.

Mustangs have always been a thing in my family. My dad and uncle both had a '66 for their first car. Another Uncle had a '70 Mach 1 until recently when he sold it to get an '06 GT. Another Uncle had an '82 GT. He recently picked up a black "06 GT/CS. Growing up mom and pops had a '79 LX. Sister-n-law has a '66 289 3spd. Cousin has a '99 V6. I am 27 now and it was time to get mine.

I am 33 years old. I had been saving for a convertible for 1 1/2 years and knew I wanted a fun to drive, stylish convertible. The Mustang fit the bill.

I was 16 when i bought by first car - a $200.00 77 Mustang II T-Top car with a blown up V6. It still looks like it belongs in a junk yard, but with a 425 HP 302 (all motor) it spanks almost every car that trys to pass me.

Now I'm 25, and when the wife said she wanted to buy a new car for her to drive I wasnt about to sink 20-30K into anything other than a Mustang. We shopped around (hello eBay) and picked up a red 06 GT with black leather for $24,000 and only 2k miles on it. (local ford dealer wanted over 30k after all the paperwork and crap)

Our 06 seems to have more little issues and rattles/whines than I would EVER have thought, but nontheless I still have fun every time I get behind the wheel :D

Purchased my first Mustang, a 5 year old '65 GT coupe as a daily driver for college after I got out of the Marines in 1970. Acquired my second Mustang, a '75 coupe through marriage in 1976, just wished she would have kept the '66 GTO tripower instead. So my new manual '07 Torch Red GT vert. will be my third Mustang and it will arrive sometime between now and Christmas. Though the Mustangs are all long gone, I still have the same wife so getting a new Mustang was not an issue as long as she could drive it once a week.:) I may have to replace her '98 Grand Marquis SE with a new one before too long. She's just debating new with all of the deep discounts, or her present car, which still runs great with the digital dash.

Oh yeah to answer your question, 61 going on 16. :)

Im 23, bought it because I missed my 66 and my 02 GT. My wife wont be replacing this one.

Great posts, everyone.

I'm 35. I wanted a new car to be my daily driver so that I could keep the miles off my Marauder. I want to supercharge the Marauder and make it my dedicated project car. So for my new daily driver I wanted something that looked good, was rear drive, V8 powered and since I've got an auto in my Marauder I wanted the new car to be manual. Oh, and it needed to be $30k or less to fit in my budget. That pretty much leaves just one car that fits all those parameters. But in truth the Mustang was at the top of my list from the very beginning. I've been wanting one since the '05s first came out. Love these S197 'Stangs.

I'm having a great time getting to know my new GT and have just over 700 miles on it so far. I'm really impressed by the build quality. I have to say that fit and finish and little details are generally better than on my '03 Marauder. Hope that's a positive sign for Ford quality control going forward.

Had an 87 loved it. This is my third 06, buy them modify them drive them for a while and you can sell them for as much or more than what you have in them. I got my wife off of Vettes and Vipers and into Stangs. I plan on keeping the black and gold Eleanor.....love it too much to get rid of it for a while.

Oops....forgot.....I'm 48

47 here. My wife has always wanted a Mustang and really likes the old style fastback look. My only stipulatoin was it needed to be a GT. So now there is a 06 Mustang Vista Blue GT next to the Red Vette. Why did we buy it? Because we can.

41.

Reminds me of the '67 I had in college, plus the specs were generally better than the other performance cars within the price range.

I love the age spread on these responses. I've seen anywhere from 16 to 61. That says a lot for a car, IMO. Absolutely incredible!

35 here..4th mustang...had 2 90's one 91 GT....Hated the 94-04 style...When the 05 came out...My life was complete..

54 and no, not because of penis size. I put the LONG TUBE HEADERS on to compensate for that! :)

[sm=funnypostabove.gif]

IM 32, My first one was a 1989 Lx. 2.3....Took 16 years but finally got a GT!

I'm 45 years old and my wife said...Just get what you want....and as always she was right! SoI have a 06' Mustang GT convert, white with red leather.

I bought mine because Ford finally built the one I've been looking for since my first new '85 LX 5.0 Coupe and since then I've had 4 other Mustang's. I was of the opinion my '06 Black GT would be it for a very very long time, but the idea of Ford making a Boss 302 has me drooling. So if they do build it, I'll be in line for one, if not, a Shelby may be in my future.

I am 49 and I bought My Mustang because I have a congenital disorder that has been in the family since time began. It's called "WBSPS" or "White Boy Short Penis Syndrome". Actually, It may not have a very large diameter but it sure is short. So, Since I previously owned a 1966 GT-350H that I sold in 1977 (like a complete idiot!). I have been waiting 29 years to replace my first love. All of these years I have had nothing to compensate with. Now I can drive around town in my Mustang and pretend that my organ is HUGE!

O.K. so in reality I am a contractor. And, I'm supposed to drive a pick-up truck like most of the podunk contractors here in Colorado. Thing is, I've been driving pick-ups and SUVs for over 20 years. I am damn tired of that! So, my wife suggested I buy something that I'd really like to drive. It didn't take but a couple of days and my new GT was parked in the garage. I love it. What a great car! What mid-life crisis? My kids want to ride in her all the time. My wife wants to ride in her all the time. Only one complaint: Anyone know if there is a nitrous credit card available? My bottle keeps going empty and that sucks!

26yrs old and this is my second stang. Purchased a new 2000 Vert (the first car I ever purchased) when Iwas 19and in college. I'll be buying my Third in about a year (waiting to see what the news is about the GT500. If no changes are comingI will buy one as soon as it can be had for MSRP or less)

28 Years old here, had my share of different vehicles over the years, but never owned a mustang before, and no desire to own one (except the 67's) until the 05 Came out. I had owned a fairly heavily modified Focus ZX3 that I had built into a "Euro-spec" car, because I was sick to death of all the hondas and acuras rolling around, and wanted something less common. I hit a crossroads with that car, as I knew that I'd have to put forced induction into the car to make it as fast as some cars are STOCK, or to beat up on the typical imports. But, if I had done that, then I would have needed a bigger clutch, LSD, chromoly driveshafts, and bigger brakes. On top of that, the car was racking up the mileage fast, and wasn't worth squat to most dealerships if I wanted to trade it in.

The local Ford store in Pembroke ON had sold my roomate his 2003 Escape v6 Limited, and wanted me as a customer. The owner of the dealership owned an 05 black on black leather GT premium with low km's, and when he found out I was interested in the new mustang, he made me an offer/deal on my previous car I couldn't refuse.

Now the tables have turned...the S197 gets HUGE street cred where I live, and does almost everywhere I go...I used to have guys in SRT4's and Acura RSX's look down their nose at my modded Focus, acting like they were "King S**t", and now they look at the stang as if it's a Nemesis. Even guys or gals in Audi's, Bmw's, and Lexus and other luxo-mobiles look at my car with lust when sitting beside me at traffic lights.

Now my family and Friends all want one...looks like Ford hit a Homerun with the S197...

I'm 63 , never owned a mustang befor however I've admired the '04 ever since I took a close look.
Then when the '05's came out , I just had to have one. I ordered mine in July of "05 and was dissapointed that "05's were done and it had to be an '06 . I took delivery of my Windviel Blue GT in Sept. of '05. I love my car and did well at the track this last summer. Do need to learn how to control the throttle and should do better with drag radials.

Im 34 and i have owned well over 20 cars in my life and one of them was my 68 fast back. I loved and miss that car. It had though many faults, like seeing out the back and turning when your going over 60. was tough but she had a 351 clevland in her(borrowed from a 69) and man she could go. and oh ya no traction in rain or snow. She died and i did not have the money at the time to fix her up. Yes i regret that now big time. Then i went to go get a mustang in 2000 but they did not appeal to me and looked and felt nothing like my 68 but i was just about to buy a dodge magnum when my wife said, now that you are certain of buying this go try another car that you like and see if its better. So i tried the 05 and bought one the next day. I love her and she reminds me of my old baby and more. I also love the attention i get with her, just the other day an undercover cop car raced up next to me and the police officer in the middle of an intersection was asking me all kinds of questions about my car. held up traffic. Was awsome.

"It may not be long but it sure is skinny!"

I am 42 and bought mine 20 years to the day of my first one in wich was a late 86.sold it in 88 to start a family and buy a house,regretted selling it ever since.Saw my 07black cs/gt being unloaded off the truck and bought it that evening on a ford x plan,the same way I bought my first one.

48, Had to have the retro look. Had many mustangs growing up and took a break and had family cars so thats enough of that. Love my 06 GT. Between my brother and I we had 67, 70, 78, 87, 95 model year stangs. When we bought the 06 my wife said everyone driving the new models were over 40.

I was 31 when I bought my 06GT & now Im 32.Still love the car as much as I did when I brought her home & named her Shelly!I bought the car due to the throw back looks of the 60s and because after doing a little reseach I found that these S197s were true platform race cars!Hence the 400ish RWHP(with NOS)!!!!

Iam 25, I bought a bright Torch Red 2006 GT. Last year, I bought a bright red 2005 F-150 FX4, great truck. I do miss the truck sometimes, but the car is just so awesome. I don't have to do 100000 mph, just 40, and it's great. A corvette could be driving right in front of me, I still get more looks. Just wonderful. Feels good, sounds good. Great! [8D]

I just turned 56 and I bought my 05 GT in November of 04 because I've always had a passion for high performance cars. The other day I was talking to another car enthusist and it got me thinking. Istarted driving in the late 60's, my first new car was a 69 Chevelle SS 396-375 hp car. I've had many, many more in between but really I was a GM fanin my younger years and soldthe 69 CamaroI owned for 15 years about 4 years ago.The only Fords I've ownedare a2001 Bullitt, a 2003 GT, and now the 05 GT. I've been bleesed to have livedin both high performance eras (late 60's early 70's) and the new dawning of this high performance era which to me has started with the ressurrection of the retro Looking Mustang, the Upcoming Dodge Challenger, and if you can call it a retro car the veryDissappointing Camaro (and this is coming from a old GM Fan). To me the old cars have gone crazy in price over the past few years and I cannotreason to buy another when you can now buy something brand new that has thelooks of the old cars and all the creature comforts that our Mustangs do.

21 here, bought it cause I wanted a car,(I've had 7 trucks). The insurance was too high on the STI, then I almost bought a 350z that was sold out from under me, Audi A4 and VW passats have major electrical problems, Older C5 Vettes burn oil,e46 BMW 330ci was tied with the mustang butI decided on the Mustang which has about the same problems they all have if not more than the others. But it looks good at least haha.

i'm 25 and this is my first car ever.Its a 07 Vista Blue GT.Always had boring trucks to drive.Decided i needed a change and would be caught dead in a rice rocket.

36 when I bought my '05 and, uh, name another hot lookin' 4 seat 300hp rwd convertible for $30,000.

29 years old. I can remember being 16 and thinking that the people that drove the Mustang were so cool. I had a used '88 Corolla. That was not cool.

im 16 06 roush first car cant afford it but my daddy loves me simply facts lol and oo yeah im pretty good at hockey so my dad bought me one did some mods and if i get good grades and play good in hockey my dad will small block it and supercharge it for me

Im 30 and I bought one because I'm from Jersey....

I'm 31 - I have been considering the new mustang ever since I first saw one of the 2005's driving around. Then, last week one of my co-workers had his F-350 in the shop for repair and they gave him a Mustang to use while it was being repaired. He let me drive it and that was that. I went and got mine the next week (Yesterday). I'm now a proud owner of an '06 V6 Redfire Metalic Convertible.

I am 25 and love the old look. My dad had a 64 1/2 vert that he sold in mid 70s. Wish he kept it.

I'm 28 and have driven mostly trucks. I was in CA on business for a month and my rental car was a '06 Tungsten V6. That was the greatest rental car ever. Every time I talked to my wife I talked to her about my rental car, not about how work was going. lol. When I got back from my business trip, she drove me to the dealership and traded her '04 Subaru WRX for my brand new '06 GT tungsten! We'd been discussing how to get her ex-husband off the subby's loan. Well, you can't do that unless you refinance. While I was on my business trip, she called the banks and got everything lined up. Man was I surprised!

Please explain your "small block it" comment. I was under the impression that the 05-07 Mustangs were all small block pistons...I wasn't aware any manufacturers had made a big block to be sold in a street car since the early 70's, due to the fuel crises? I wouldn't swap the block on a Roush, especially if it's a stage 2 or 3, as there's engine work that's done on it to pump up the HP.

27 here -- loved the retro look and thought that the car was beautiful.

41year old !!wife said if we have one more baby (makes # 4) I could by a vette. I liked the mustang better soI bought my 07 and have spent 35k to get to this point. Lat week end bout a 1970 mustang rag top building in to shelby clone

I'm 45 and loved seeing the original mustang as a little kid in the 60's and and early 70's but by the time I was old enough to drive the style had changed and I couldn't afford one anyway. This is my first mustang - now I'mliving the dream and loving every minute of it!The best part is when I'm driving by the little, littlekids and they yell "nice car!" and it's like history repeating itself as the muscle car erabeginswith the mustang all over again.

47 here. My wife has always wanted a Mustang and really likes the old style fastback look. My only stipulatoin was it needed to be a GT. So now there is a 06 Mustang Vista Blue GT next to the Red Vette. Why did we buy it? Because we can.



By the way, I had to quote your post djponyaz because your story is so eerily like mine. I recently got the vista blue and my husband is adiehard fan of the corvette and has a '71 in red. That's another reason I love my car, because it shares the old days idea in that its retro and Ifeel the same kind of love and devotion as my husband has for his car. And yes,now we can too.

06 Gt
I'm 30
and the reason i bought it was because i was in the market for a new car when ford had there 0% deal going on. the new mustang never even crossed my mind of cars i was thinking of buying untill i seen her up close and personal, andnow i dont think i will ever buy a diffrent car lol

35 and I originally bought it cuz of the retro Interior and the growl, not to mention it was the fastest stock mustang that I had driven before.

35 and this is my second mustang. New one is an 06 GT which I have been putting work into but cant get updated pics with 3 foot of snow on the ground! I still have my 97 V6 which is a decent snow car now that it has a ford racing new diff in it.

I bought it because it was badass. What more is there?:D

I had a used '88 Corolla. That was not cool.

LMFAO...... understatement of the year?

i'm 25 and i despertly needed a new car.i've allways wanted a mustang, i blame it on the local Mustang parts store's(CJ pony parts) constant advertisment on the local rock station.

so when i finished my MA got a new better paying job. i started looking for a car. i probally should have bought cheaper more realistican Egg-likecarbut i figured what the heck most egg cars cost like 15-18 so why not spend 2k more fora pony.

U kno im playing w/ u! But on the topic of the thread, im 19 (exactly a month till 20) and bought my car cause i had the money and wanted a stang. They are pretty and fast- and i like fast. Also it was nice to know i was financially able to do something almost noone else my age i know could do =)

Almost 40 and I needed a cool sports car for my mid-life crisis. Anyone have have a hot young blond girlfriend I can have to complement the package.........

43, and wanted one from the moment I saw the new body style. I like them so much I have an 06 Red GT with an automatic, and just ordered a Vista Blue 07 5 speed.......I like these CARS!!!

I'm 32. My first love was my Yamaha FJR1300 motorcycle. It is hard to beat cycle performance with zero to 60 mph in 2.9 seconds. I bought a 2006 Mustang Convertible V6 so I still look to the cycle when I want pure performance. The problem is that with a wife and two young kids the cycle doesn't get ridden much. The convertible gives a good balance of open air feeling that I can take the whole family along for a ride. Plus I found mine used for under $20k only six months old so it was a great deal.

The reason I chose the Mustang over another convertible is the looks simply can't be beat and keep getting better each time I add a personal touch to it. The Mustang is one of the only good looking 4 seater convertibles on the market.

46. My first mustang. These are beautiful. Next one will be the Shelby!

38. This is my first Mustang. My cousin has a 68(I think) 428 Cobra Jet....he's the original owner. I've always loved that car. Didn't buy the car to compensate for penis size..........actually my penis make the car look smaller.

I was 46 when I got my '06. Before that, I was 37 when I got my '95 V6 coupe.

Born in 1969 Crazy good year - that makes me 37 soon 38 and in the past I owned a 68 mustang gt with 289 engine. Hauled big time 8$$.
Also some time ago I owned a 88 5.0 vert.
I also at one point owned a 90 coupe 5.0.
The mustang was born a muscle car and today it speaks for it self.
I drive a mustang muscle car because it speak for us both.

55...previous C5, C5Z06,and Viper GTS owner. Looking for something a loteasier to get in and out of,that could be easily modded and yet remain a comfortable daily driver. Driven sports cars since early 70s, first mustang...and liking it.

38 and currently own a 68 302 coupe and an 06 GT. Have had at least a dozen mostly old school stangs over the years of all configurations. The 06 is the best so far, but my 04 Mach 1 was close.

57 going on 18, and I bought my '07 Tungston GT because nothing else even comes CLOSE to this package (looks + power + price).
Also nostalgia- cause my senior year in high school my folks had a dark green '67 289 which of course I borrowed whenever they'd let me.

Seriously thinking about giving this one to my wife in a few years and getting myself a Shelby........;-)

I am 60. I bought a Saleen PJ because I use to follow the Trans Am racing in the early 70 and the Boss 302 and Parnelli Jones ruled.

I'm 35 and my first Mustang - big fan of original muscle cars so when I got a look at this car I had to have one. I also wanted an inexpensive car for an every day car to keep the miles off my 03 Monte Carlo SS show car.

I was 19 years old when I bought mine...about 2 yearsago:)

Reason...I could stand my Nissan any longer.

A girl needs power and something to look good in and have fun ;)

32, will be 33 next month.....

......why I bought the car....well I actually stole it...and then took the funds I would use buying the car and modded the **** out of this car.

23 years old (bought it at 22). Basically, my present for graduating from college and starting a career. Never really considered anything else (Charger...no, Z06...probably wouldn't be alive) and I don't know if I could have gotten away with anything other than a Mustang - currently 6 Stangsand growing in my five person family.

I'm 35. I bought my '06 because I love American muscle cars and I love Mustangs.

I have now driven a Mustang for 16 years straight:

'89 LX 5.0 -- First car in college. Bought it used in '90 (w/ 6k miles) and just sold it after 16 1/2 years (w/104k miles) to a fellow member of mustangforums.com.
local://upfiles/48869/6355742679E648FFA45171BD2B809E1E.jpg

'95 GT 5.0 -- First car after law school. Bought it used in '97 (w/ 10k miles) and just sold (w/ 95k miles) after 9 1/2 years to buy my Saleen.
local://upfiles/48869/CD77AC4741DD450EBA963DB164DC4DD0.jpg

'06 Saleen S281 Supercharged -- My dream car. That's all I can say about it.

I'm 19. I got it because i've grown up around muscle cars my whole life and love them. My dad had a 67' 427/435 Stingray vette, a 66 impala super sport, a 69 Biscayne factory race car, a 77 Camaro RS....yea all Chevys...but i'm a Ford man myself. I love the new mustang....I'm going to be keeping both of mine for a long, long time. Both of them will be beat to hell and never hold any value because i'm going to make them both race cars...but still :) haha

Hilarious guys! Im 32yrs oldhave an 06 GT and have owned mustangs since I was able to drive! I love the car, its looks, and affordability....its the cheapest V-8 out there!ORIGINAL: raubt

I'm 26 and I bought it to compensate for my small penis.


Man, you too? I feel better now.

I've always loved the mid-sixties mustang convertibles. I'm 45, but my favorite dinky car as a kid in the sixties was a white Mustang. When Ford brought out the retro styling it was only a matter of time. I had a company car for many years, now that I work for myself I could get what I wanted. Guess what, it was a Mustang convertible.

26 years old
2006 V6 with Pony Package
I got it because my 2000 Tracker sh*t the bed, and I've wanted a Mustang since I was little and had all the Matchbox cars! Now I'm driving one of my childhood toys!!! That, and the car is so beautiful, and it gets so much attention...nice to see all the girlies who's heads turn...too bad once they see the driver, they turn away :(

LOL. Next mod: Plastic surgery on your face!

I'm 37. I love the retro style, the sound and the muscle.

35 yrs old and had been driving an old beat up Mercury Tracer for 9 yrs before I bought my new '06 GT. I wanted something I could be proud to drive around and this more than qualified. Besides the fact I fell in love with the retro look of the car instantly.

ORIGINAL: jerseystang07

17. Bought it because I needed a car and that car had to be a Mustang. Love the retro look as well. Would have gone for the v8 power as well but couldn't afford the insurance. Can barely afford it now as it is!


same!
except i got an 06!

[sm=gears.gif]I was 19 when i bought the Blue Beast!! I bought it because ever since i was born i have ridin around in a mustang. From my dads Boss 429 to his Shelby GT 350 to my grandfathers (old school ass kicker)Shelby GT 500, and numerous 5.0's owned by my father led me to the adimant conclusion that i was born a mustang fanatic.:D:D

46 here. I bought one since It had been awhile since I had a muscle car and that's all I used to drive.
I started off with a 69 Roadrunner, had a nice 72 Chevelle with a chromed motor and a 76 Trans Am that was a two year labor of love to restore. I had a very nice 1992 black Gran Prix with the 4 valve per cylinder motor that ran pretty good, but it was still only a 6 cylinder.When I saw the S197 show car in 04,I was in awe. I've never owned a Mustang before or even a Ford and considered myself basically a GM guy,but this is the best muscle car, bar none that I have ever had.It burns rubber like crazy, sounds great, is crazy good lookingand will outrun just about anything on the road. What's not to love?
And the mods continue...

Lucky guy growing up with all those nice cars ;)

I'm 47. When the 05's came out I wanted one. Took me 2 years but finally got one. Graduated High School in 77. 2 of my buddies had mustangs. A 66 289 and a71 429. That 429 was something else. I had a lime gold 68 Fairlane 500 Fastback 390. I've had dependable cars since then, but nothing I really enjoyed.Built it on the Ford website, dealer had it in stock. I did it for me. What the heck. When it snows I'll drive the truck. Years from now when it needs a new engine or trans it will get a new engine or trans. We can't keep them all, but this is the keeper.

Im 21. I have an 06 mustang GT, and I bought it because I have always loved Mustangs, always wanted one. Just never did. I owned a 72 galaxie as my first car...v8 auto 4 door...not quite a mustang....then a mazda miata manual rwd convertible...not quite either then I was finally able to afford my dream car. My black beauty...

I am 48 and am going through a mid-life crisis I guess. I had a '69 Camaro Indy Pace Car convertible that I sold (big mistake). The Mustang is a great car and reminds me of the Camaro only a lot more refined and comfortable. I ended up with a Foose for two reasons. First I wanted something a little different than a "normal" Mustang and secondly I wanted something that might appreciate in value over time. We will see if that happens.

Anyways, I am blessed with having a very understanding wife and my kids love riding in the "vert".

One more thing I forgot...

One of the biggest reasons I bought my car was mustangforums.com. With this many people talking about how much they love there cars and all the fun they have making it there own and modifying it, I knew it would love my car too.

This was my first sports car and I really am glad I finally got the balls to go out of my comfort zone even though my last two vehicles (Chevy Venture minivan and Chevy Impalla family sedan) admittedly were a little better for hauling my two kids around. However, 99% of the time I am driving my car by myself and I love it.

Who ever thought driving to WORK in the morning could actually be fun????????

I was 15 when I got my baby:). Although I am 16 now.

I'm 50 this is my 3rd mustang owned a 68 four speed carand 71 fastback .

41 Yrs old. Had my baby 1 year now. 11 miles on her when I got her. Got her with the money I got for the crazy bi@#$ that ran into my car and shattered my hip.

I bought mine a week before I turned 42. Fell in love the first time I saw the prototype back in '04. Miss my '77 Firebird, but not as much since I got my '06 GT. The Mustang is not as fast as the Firebird, but a hell of a lot better. I love my GT!!! I bought it because it is the best looking car besides a Ferrari out there, and because it is as fast as anything out there for the money. Oh, and 'cause it makes my penis seem bigger! lol

Bought my 06 gt when i was 21 because i really needed to pick up chics!!!! Thank you god for the mustang!!!

I was 33 when my 64 year old dad (you know, the one who is always saying save your money) talked me into buying my 06 GT. It took him 6 months to find the GT convertible he wanted and only 2 days for me to find a coupe. Haven't had a car payment in 13 years and don't regret it.

I'm 26 and I bought it to compensate for my small penis.


+1 Allthough my penis is above average (average being 6 inches by the way). I added a whipple supercharger so the car could compensate.;)

anyone see hammeron tonight.....

I'm 32, always wanted a mustang, and since the 05s that sealed the deal! Plus as quoted in a review of the new mustangs "the 05 is the best mustang since 1964 1/2"!! Totally awesome car. Still can't believe its mine at times!

30 and sweet and frisky and vigorous.....and I love this little ride.....she does me well!

25 wild and frisky....:D

32, married, kid on the way due next April...all good...come hell or high water I am going to never complain about stretching to that baby seat in the back....

"frisky".................best mod you can put on a Mustang!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;)

Just turned 39 going on 25! It's my 5th Mustang (85 GT, 89 GT, 99 Cobra, 03 Mach I, 06 GT).

If you don't mind, I'll tell a story - it's not really off topic, as you'll see....

I spent two years selling Fords. One of my best sales - the kind that just make you feel good because of what you didand not because of the money - was to a guy who was in his mid-forties. He'd never had a sports car. He came in looking to trade his 04 F150 in on a "completely loaded Expedition Limited." We found an Expedition that he liked and proceeded to hammer outa deal. During the course of negotiations I had noticed that every time I went back to the desk, he'd walk over to the Tungsten Grey GT we had on the showroom. It had a shaker hood, nice wheels, exhaust, chin spoiler and a few other small mods - nothing over the top, but classy. Every time I'd come back he's walk back to the table and sit down with me.

We'd pretty much finished up, got to a deal, and while we were waiting on finance, I asked him if he liked the Mustang (being Mustang crazy myself, I couldn't resist). He said yes, and added that he'd always wanted one, but then got married, had kids, etc. I asked him about his kids and he said they're all out of the house, he's divorced - in other words, single. He then said, "but I really need a truck anyway, they're more practical for hauling things, etc." I asked him when was the last time he hauled anything in the truck he was trading in (it was very clean), and he said he'd used it as a "truck" maybe two or three times. I told him that Home Depot will rent you a truck for a lot less than one costs for the few times you'd need it. Plus, I added, the Mustang is about $8000 less, and gets about 10 mpg better mileage (even modded). He was like, "really?" I could see his expression change. We kept talking about it, and eventually I asked him if he wanted to take it for a drive, which he did. The rest is history. He came in to buy an Expedition and left in a modded Mustang GT, and I might add, he was grinning from ear to ear!

Mustangs are amazing cars. They make good daily drivers and good modding projects : )

I was 20 when I got mine. I'm 22 now. The last two years have been wonderful. :)

When I got it I wasn't particularly a Mustang buff, but after I got it that soon changed.

43 years old

Reason for purchase, becauseback when I was in my 20's all my spoiled frends had nice fast cars andmy Mothercould not afford to buy me one. So I settled for a 79 Camaro straight six that I paid for myself. It was a nice looking car, but could not compair to what they were driving. Now I have my car and they have mini vans.

I'm 47, wife is 41. 2 kids each from previous marriage. Youngest will be 18 in
3 months. No need for a family car anymore (we still have our '99 ParkAve Ultra).
I've always had muscle cars growing up. '69 Firebird was my 1st, then went through
2 '65 Chevelles, '67 Camaro, '68 Chevelle. Pics are from 1978-1983.

I'm 46 and mine was a surprise birthday present from my wife Tina. It was one of the first 05s' in the Charleston , South Carolina area. That was in November of 2004. One problem is my wife doesn't understand my need to mod it since she thought it was the perfect car the way she bought it.

just turned 37 got the car for my bday a present from my wife, ive never been much of a sports car guy, always been pretty practical about vehicles, so much so that the vehicle we traded in was a minivan. From minivan to v6 5-speed convertible mustang... now the weekend feels more like a vacation than just another day!!!

25, 2007 GT. Got it cause my previous car was dying and I'd had my eye on these new stangs since they came out. Wanted a car with some get up and go that was also not ricey, comfortable, and had a back seat (however actually useful). Everything else fell out of the running while I was looking around and I honestly couldn't be more happy with my decision.

Also, tires smell almost too good to be legal.

33 years old. Couldn't afford the Vette and was working my butt off driving a piece o'crap car while the wife sat at home with a nice new SUV.Grabbed my balls outta her purse and went to the dealer to get that "badass mustang" I saw blast pass me on the freeway. Now I have to work even harderbut I look cool as hell driving to and from work ;)

dude, I have not always had an idea of how a saleman could be in such a position to do something wonderful (for the customer). But I guess I have heard an example for the first time. Thanks for saving the guy. He really needed it.

This is my 3rd and best one yet I would never by a V6(no offense to anyone, just not 4 me) My first was a 96GT Auto[:'(] when I was 20. Then I got a 99 GT manual:) when I was 22. Then I wanted a Terminator at 23. And after test driving a few, I decided to test drive a S197, since the price was the same and I fell for the looks, more refined interior, and warranty so I got my 05:D. The real reasonwhy I bought this car and the ones prior is because I'm unable to reproduce so these are kinda my children.

I am 22 and i bought it because my husband deployed and d*mnit i needed something fun to play around with for the next year and three months!

52, It was either Viagra or a Mustang GT, Best Bang for the buck Mustang GT

24, used the xplan.First american car i ever owned. Previous cars were 96 VW GTI, 2000BMW 328CI Coupe, 93 turbocharged mr2, 91 turbo mr2.

I'm 26 and I bought it to compensate for my small penis.


rolling on the floor laughing my a$$ off!!! dude thats pretty funny! gotta love honesty.

23. bought it in February. Had to replace my old 91 Saleen after it was stolen and stripped, andafter growing up around a 65 coupe, 67 fastback, an 89 Saleen andthe 91 Saleen, I essentially already knew I would be replacing the poor Saleen with another stang.

The fact that when I polled a few of the girls I knew from school about the what car to get, 4 out of 5 said to get the Mustang only helpedtosolidify mydecision:D

LONG story.

When I was 14 (1997) I fell in love with the '98 style Camaro SS (WAIT! I'm getting to the mustang part!) and I started working every summer picking tomatoes and okra at a local farm (MISERABLE work, but paid a lot more than mcdonald's!) I saved every penny I earned with the intention of buying a camaro. Just before I graduated, I came across a picture of my Dad's blue '65 GT350 that he had before I was born. Hearing him talk about that car shifted my love from camaros to stangs.When I was 17, afew weeks after I graduated highschool, I went out and bought a blue '99 stang (I had enough for the car, and my dad helped me with TT&L). I drove that car to college and work for 6 years, 112K miles, and never had a problem. Then hurricane Katrina took it from me. I didn't have much money, so I bought a '95 GTS with 110K miles on it. I had it for 6 months when I got a HUGE bonus at work, which I used to buy my '06 GT in March of '06 (I was 22, for those keeping up with the topic at hand.) I sold the GTS to a friend, who promptly totaled it. Now I'm 24 and have no plans of getting rid of this car any time soon.

Was 22 when bought mine, reason: 300hp for 24k, who else can beat that? closest competitor is 350z that not only has 2 seats but is also 6k more with less power.
The dream car would be the vette for me though... I don't think even gt500 can beat base vette's handling

I was 39 when I bought my '05, had to sell my '91 to get it. When I saw the s197 body style I had to have it, but I wasn't going to be one of those idiots who ran right out in September of '04 and had to wait for weeks and weeks to get one so I waited all the way until March of '05, and only had to wait 5 weeks for it to be delivered.....Wait.... I AM one of those idiots!!!!

I'm 46, and I wanted it!

I had a 66 coupe with an auto tranny and 289 when I was a senior in high school (sort of Torch Red). It didn't last me long the way I treated it then, plus I was one of those college students that was just scraping by. I have put two kids through college (and the wife and I paid every penny of it), and finally decided it was time for something for Dad. Also, the retro look is just what I have been waiting for. I tell my kids and younger folks I work with,"they don't make 'em like they used to, they make them a whole lot better now". I got tired of all the people I work with getting a hot car and decided I wanted one of my own. I drove 150 miles to a dealer that hada GT inthe color I wanted and bought it (dragged the wife along kicking and screaming). I'm 54 and can keep this in the barn over the winter so it won't rust away like the last one. Ordered the retro louvers and the GTA axleback mufflers and can't wait to put them on.

My husband started when he was 16 with a 89 5.0 vert; 88 5.0 Hatch; and an 02' GT

21 when i got my first. I just wanted a mustang, didnt really know much about the s197 models till i signed the papers.

17, got it because i have always always always loved mustangs. since i was in 1st grade everytime i saw a mustang, (i remember it was sn-95sat the time)i would ask my dad what kind of car is that? and he would go "mustang" i have told you a lot of times already. i just could n't remember mustang so i just called them horses cause of the little horse on the front, lol

I am 30 and I bought the car to go against the grain. I was "expected" to buy a Tahoe or Yukon......or even worse....a Chrysler Town and Country mini-van! (Ouch! It even hurt to type that out it).............

I did it to go against the grain, and I like the looks, (the car and me in it).......................;)

Well I was 16 when i got it, 17 now, i needed a car, my dad was trying to push me into an older chevelle which was cool but i couldnt afford a nice one so we kept looking, then i went by a ford dealership and decided to stop and look at the mustangs, i went home and started to look at some used 05s on ebay, V6 because i didnt have a whole lot of cash, but then one day after football practice i was waiting for my dad to come pick me up and in pulls a nice looking mustang with white stripes, shiney rims, 1/4 window louvers, dual exhaust(i could hear it) and i said dam, now i really want one of those:)next thing i know my dad rolls down the window, been driving it ever since and love it. and the best part, he is paying for it until february:)

Tired of dumping money into a dedicated track car (road courses) and wanted to have fun on the streets too. Loved the looks the day they came out and heard that they did well on the track too. Checked out parts and there were many options. Took one for a test drive and couldn't stop smiling, bought it the next day.

I'm in my 40's and bought this car because it reminded me of my old 69. When I had my 69 I was a poor guy starting a family and I could barely afford gas so I never got to do anything nice with it. Jump forward 20 or so years and this car comes out. Now my kids are grown and I can have some fun. Oh, that and to compensate for mAnytyles small penis.

I have had a LOT of vehicles over the years. I simply enjoy this car more than any I have ever owned.

I'm 54 and am a Mustang nut. Love them. Have had a 65 coupe, 71 Mach1, 67 fastback, 2 70 Mach 1's and a 05 GT.

22.

bought it because i wanted a new sports car when i moved baclk to Florida from Michigan.

3rd mustang

1st - 92 GT white, built for stupid power. fun as hell.
2nd - 02 GT white, built, but nothing crazy.
3rd - 07 GT black, lil' **** till the whipple

always been a sports car guy. 3 mustangs and 2 Supra Turbos (i heart supras madly)

20 when i got it, 21 now, almost had it a full year now, i got it because i really needed a new car, i was driving an 88 cutlass with 120k on it, and various problems that i was jus buying myself time on, while i worked two jobs for 2 full years to save up enough for a decent down payment, the day i saw these mustangs, i did the math to figure out how much of a payment i could afford, and how much of a down payment i needed to get to that monthly payment, and as soon as i got there, i went right out and bought it.

I'll be 60 next Month.
I've lost my desire for some things over the years but power and fords isn't one of them.
Oldest was a 40 Ford and now my 07 GT with many Mustangs in between.
Even two V-8 Pinto's

26 yrs old. My father has a 65 GT convertible and Ihave loved it since I can remeber. I got an 07 convert because it happened to be the style that was out when I could afford to buy one, and also has a lot of touches that remind me of the 65.

I'm 17 about to be 18 and my parents bought me an 07 GT Black w/ Dbl 10" Red stripes with GT300 cut outs in the vinyl on the rear of trunk and on both sides of the hood scoop.

I was 44 when I saw the new Mustang at the 2005 LA auto show. I couldn't take my eyes off of this car; finally Ford had the nuts to build a Mustang again. I sat in them, I looked at them at stop lights. Two weeks before Christmas 2005 I decided to test drive one. The salesman said, "Why don't you open it up?" I revved the tach to four grand, dumped the clutch, laid fifty feet of rubber, barked second gear and hit sixty in no-time-flat.


After that, what's left... I bought one.

My 07 was made 10/06, my 67 was made 9/19/66. 41st bday this Wednesday :DOh and my 07 is my midlife crisis car, I will be 50 next year. fd

2006 GT :I was 38 when I bought it (I'm 39 now) Bought it because I was tired of my C5 Vette, I'm more of a muscle/ponycar guy vs. sports car guy, nice to have a back seat and a real trunk, love the retro styling, I love the old Mustangs. And its like having 2 cars in one, an old muscle car in great shape that you don't have to dump a ton of money into,and be frustrated with, plus its safer, better technology, etc!!!

First Mustang I've really liked since 1973

I got my 05 when I was 19 :D Not as impressive as most of you, but I bought it myself with my own money and financing while I was doing school and work full time. I've always wanted a Mustang and thought this would be a great affordable start ;)

I'm 53 going on 20. At least that's how I feel at WOT and the Whipple kicks in. I owned a '66 Shelby replica that was heavily modified. Beautiful saphire blue car, white stripes, torque thrust II wheels, rack and pinion, etc. Parked it on the street one day. Came back to the car and some guy offered to buy it at an out a sight great price. Went right down to the ford dealer and bought a new vert with everything on it and turned it into another replica. Another beautiful car that is way faster, way safer, way better handling, and can be taken on long trips without any worries. Best car I have ever owned by far. If you ever wonder whether a supercharger is worth it, stop wondering. It's an amazing feeling.

im 22 and i got it because i love the mustangs. grew up with mustangs and the first car i got had to be a stang.

I'm 47. Doesn't matter what age you are, if you're a Mustang nut - you can't do anything about it other than drive one. I've owned a '67 convertible, an 86 GT, an 89 GT and now, a one-month old '07 GT. It is the nicest, smoothest riding, comfortable and powerful Mustang I've owned. I very much enjoy driving it. My wife loves it too, and my 12 year-old son? What do you think? Its a Mustang thing!

I'm 28 and I got mine because I'm single and don't have any kids so now is the time for me to have a muscle car. Once I get married and have a couple of kids it would be a little harder to justify having a two door sports car. But for now I'm just gonna enjoy the feeling I get every time I hammer that throttle.

I'm 23 and it's my first brand new car. I've always wanted a mustang so I figured there's no time like the present. :D

I'm 59 and purchased an 07 GT. Always wanted a mustang but was old school and didn't like the foxes or SN95's so when they came out with the retros in 05 I told myself I've got a get me one of these. So I did and love every driving minute of it.[sm=gears.gif]BTW the penis thing? It's how ya use it that counts ;)

43 years old when I bought (ordered) mine.... My Dad is 72 and bought his the same day.

52, It was either Viagra or a Mustang GT, Best Bang for the buck Mustang GT


:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

36 always had mustangs like the new look the car has come along way.

39 here
mid-life crisis plus a good paying job, finally

34 and i hit my mid life early. got a young GF and a Hot fast car...

25... new job.. had driven a honda and economic cars for a few years.. figured it was time for badass.. i jumped

Im 31, Active Duty Army, my reason to buy my 07GT besides the penis thing.... Never know if there will be a tomorrow, Play hard today.

I was 33 earlier this year when I bought my 07 V6.

I had to buy a new car because my 96 V6's engine blew out. The new Stangs were at the top of my list (if I was able to afford it.)

I've always loved Mustangs for as far back as I can remember. My mom still has the 69 Fastback that she got for her 16th birthday.

I love the new Mustangs even more because they remind me of those 69-70 models. My favorite years!

38.

We passed down our 89 Vert to our daughter when she turned 16 and I missed having one. The SUV wasn't doing the trick for me (-:

At 51...I saw, I fell in love, I bought!!

I am 36 and I had always wanted a Mustang. The look, the power and for the price, nothing else compares. I don't know alot mechanically about cars but I know one thing that all of us share and that is the love of an AMERICAN muscle car. When people ask what kind of car I have, I smile and proudly say "A Mustang GT" and the reaction I get is unbelievable. Kids that see it say they can only hope they can get one when they grow up and the older people in my neighborhood say that they are living their dream to have one through me, as they watch me outside always washing or just admiring my car. I can't go a day without someone stopping me and wanting a ride(especially girls) or just to see the inside and the engine. I don't know of any other car that brings people together like the mustang does and I am very proud to be part of the MUSTANG NATION!!!!!

42.
I work for Toyota, and always said, if I leave toyota, I will get one. Well I jsut could'nt wait anymoe!!

Being hung like a bull hamster is not the reason I bought a stang. I'm 48, and this is my 5th stang. I also grew up with stangs, and other performance fords. I just have always liked them.

29 This is my first mustang, I've always owned Ford trucks, so when I needed a car... mustang or crown vic were the only choices. Like I said 29 so here I am on the Mustang Forum.

37 years old and on my 3rd Stang. Just love these cars and the whole presence that goes with them. How does a car turn 40+ years old and still look as hot if not hotter than when it first came out. Not many cars can claim that except maybe the Porsche 911 and Mercedes SL. Thats a hell of an acheivement and Im glad to be part of it.

I’m 24 and the youngest of 3 boys who are all gear heads ina gear head family. My two brotherswent through several classic hotrods when they were growing up and when it came my time to drive mom and dad put the foot down and said no more fixerupers in the driveway, soI romped around in my wrangler which was a blast! Highly recommend it. So I graduated collegeand got a good job as a patent analyst and decided I disserved something nice. I test drove WRX's, RX8, 350z, new wranglers, even looked ata 68camaroand after driving the stang it became obvious, which drove my Chevy loving family nuts but there not the one driving. Got the mustang back in June and have been enjoying it ever since. Mods should ensue shortly[8D].

I just turned a young 52, bought my first Stang (first Ford, actually) about 3 1/2 months ago. After being financially raped by my ex-wife and still paying 2/3 rd's of both kids college expenses, I had been strapped for cash. But the divorce has been final for about 2 years, I have a better paying job AND I had just written the last tuition payment for the oldest boy in May. I decided I needed to celebrate since I hadn't had a muscle car since selling my '78 Camaro in 1985 (marriage and kids do that kind of sh*t). So I got the Stang. It also helped that my latest g/f told me she gets off over Stangs and she goes ape**** whenever she hears those Stingers.

BTW, after I got home with the car from the dealership I promptly called my oldest son and said "I have good news and bad news. The good news is, for your graduation I bought a new Mustang GT. The bad news is, IT'S NOT FOR YOU!"

I'm 17. Bought an 07 GT/CS over a charger SRT because it was better looking, and doesn't cost and arm and a leg to modify like those damn hemis. Also, it is easier to replace the parts once i break them from taking a beatin at the track :-). The ultimate american muscle car.

NICE!! When i gotthe stanghome i called my oldest brother who sold his vet for a mini van, put the phone on speaker, placed it one the ground behind the exhaust and started her up and gave it alittle gas!... He's happy for me but its a bitter happy. Then i liberated him from the family and we went for a little joy ride.

I'm 52 and I bought my 06 so my garage will be wall to wall Mustang when my 70 is finished.

52 and wanted something with a soft top, back seat and V8.
Plus I liked the color.

bought my 07 gt just before i turned 18 just bc i had an 04 vert since 16 and was in love with mustangs ever since

I'm 21 and I got it for insurance reasons. I was going to get a C6 (yea big price difference, I know) since I could afford the monthly payment (around $800). That was fine and dandy until I got my insurance quote. After I managed to start my heart again after the mild heart attack I had, I seetled for the PP Mustang.

Yes, I like both Ford and Chevy[&:]

i got mine at 16, ive saved a long time, and my dad found it for a good price. but sadly i think im gonna end up sellin the stang for a plymoth

I am 61and I have loved performance cars all my life.My wife is 62(Love them older women)and her first car was a 66 mustang so we both agreed on our tourch red 06 GT, 5 speed ,Mac CAI,Pypes violater mufflers,Hurst shifter and more to come Im sure .Lemans66.

I'm 30. I had an ex-bf who got a '65 fastback and once I learned how to really drive it, I loved it. So I really want a '66, but expense, safety, and long term car needs are keeping me away from it at the moment. I needed a new car, so I did the Ford 0% for 72 months. Can't beat a $250 car payment, especially when Honda was offering $400 a month on an Si. So it was partly a financial choice and an aesthetic choice.

In any case, I chose the car for looks and looks alone. It doesn't look like any other car on the market. It looks like the old school car I want. It has personality and a bit of umph to the driving experience. I got the '07 v6 pony package w/leather.

I'm 18 and bought my mustang when was 18 because I have always loved the mustangs. I grew up around them and both my parents own them, and still currently own mustangs now a 07 convertible. Ford just runs in my family. :)

Well, I calculate that I am 40% over 40, and I was trying to convince my wife to trade in the minivan last year when Ford was offering 0% financing. She basically told me to look at a Mustang and quit bugging her -- man, did that work out well! I have several friendsenjoying their'05 and '06 GTs, so when the chance came, I jumped on it --I had a lot of sports cars over the years, but never a muscle car. Now I am in touch with my inner Hot Rodder...

19 cuzz it's a bitchin ride=)
