40 here. So I guess that puts me in the "Classic" category?
When I saw the first picture of an 05 Mustang it just reminded me of my high school parking lot back in 1983. There were alot of late 60's muscle cars there. I was always a Mopar man myself and I cheered for the Charger in the car chase in Bullit. But I had to admire that Mustang! Steve McQueen was too cool for words back then!
39 here but real close to 40 was not quit ready to push the 40 to 49 spot.Just got past the Windstar stage thank goodness still have it but I don't ever drive it anymore unless it is raining. Stang Stays in garage but on weekend.
Well, ok, I'm 44. I would have killed myself with an 05 Mustang when I was under 25, so it's just as well that it didn't exist until now. In my opinion, it's too much car for the "average" north american male under 25. Now before all of you young people flame me, please note that I said "average" male under 25. I know many young drivers who are excelent drivers, but you are in the minority.
By the time I buy my next one (probably another 10 years)... I guess I'll be in my 50's. Let's see, 2015 Mustang GT, 530HP, MSRP $39,000. Somebody wake me up!

Well! You fellas all be youngsters! I be 58 in July!
However! I've not grown up yet! Still like my five speed GT! Like my 160HP motorcycle! Love the sound of a reving engine! Love looking into the next corner and the next corner exit!
I still plan to make some suspension adjustments to the GT, but, some money problems came upon me suddenly. My last ride ate 26 sets of tires during its life, one of the problems with a totally "tweaked" suspension, you don't want to slow for corners! Of course, part of the problem on that car was it needed more HP to exit the corner, so, I endeavored to lose as little speed as I could navigating corners.
Bought my car May 17th. turned 33 May 18th. Happy B-day to me too!
My friends think I am in a "young life crisis." They are busy buying mini vans and pickup trucks. they just don't get it. They think a car like this is for "kids". Well, maybe they are right and we are all "kids" a heart no matter the years we show. Life is short enough to not enjoy it, me? I'd rather enjoy every drive I take rather than huff and puff in an under powered ride. I have two kids, three and seven.

43 here. Had a '68 in college, had an '87 when I got married. Spent the last 12 years driving 4 door kid mobiles and decided it was time to start doing a little something for myself again. I love this car.
