The 2009 Ford Mustang GT and 6 cylinder Mustang variants should continue to sell like hotcakes to muscle car fans and those who see the Ford Mustang as a way to recapture their childhood dreams of drive-in movies, drag races and all that nonsense.
The 2009 Mustang is still nearly exactly the same near-sports car that thrilled the automotive world when released for the 2005 model year, a big step up from the previous model in terms of performance relative to base price, and handling. Still, carrying a fixed real axel even in Mustang GT trim, the 2009 Ford Mustang can't touch the sports car capabilities of other models in the class.
Ford is advertising the 2009 Mustang's smoked glass roof, similar to the one found on the Scion tC, as a compromise between Mustang coupe and convertible models, but at a price premium of just under $2,000, it doesn't make sense to us. The 2009 Mustang glass roof unit is fixed, unlike the fancy power sliding panoramic glass roof found on the new 2009 Porsche 911 Targa models.
2009 Mustang and Mustang GT specs remain the same: 221 horsepower from the surprisingly efficient 6 cylinder engine, with the V8 GT getting a cool 300 horsepower. Still one of the best straight-line performance bargains on the market, the 2009 Ford Mustang adds a few touches here and there that keep the retro-Mustang design interesting awaiting the introduction of the all-new Mustang model, which will be released as the 2010 Ford Mustang and designed to compete with the Chevy Camaro and Dodge Challenger.More Details
