2004 Ford Mustang GT Deluxe 2dr Coupe (4.6L 8cyl 5M)
Review
I shopped around for about 3 months and wanted another Cobra, But found this jewel, my silver GT! This car is immacculate! It has no dings or dents and handles as good as my 1997 Cobra which was the year they made only 5000. My GT is a 40th anniversary with black leather interior, excellent condition followed by a powerful 4.6 liter V8, it handles so good and sounds like the awesome Mustang it is!
Favorite Features
Love the sound when I start it up on a cool day. Great manual tranny! Very fast for the money! I can always upgrade it's features! I plan on keeping this Mustang as a collectors!
Suggested Improvements
Bigger wheels and wider tires in rear

2004 Ford Mustang 2dr Coupe (3.8L 6cyl 5M)
Review
I got this car last year with only 23,000 miles on it. I love this car. It's a 40th anniversary edition. I love it. I only travel from work to home and that's about a 5 minute drive for me. It runs well. Never had a problem. It's just a beautiful car. I like this car better than the newer models.
Favorite Features
I love the appearance. It just has this sleek, sexy design. I love the leather. The car is just amazing. It handles beautifully.
Suggested Improvements
The only thing I would complain about is the fuel economy.

2004 Ford Mustang Mach 1 2dr Coupe (4.6L 8cyl 5M)
Review
I was attracted to this car by it's sharp looks and great performance, and after four years, I still love it. It may not be the fastest car on the road, but it's the biggest bang for the buck, and will surely blow off most of the boy racers. The horsepower and torque figures are claimed to be 305 and 320 respectively, but the dyno has shown substantially higher numbers. This is my fourth Mustang, the last one being a 98 Cobra, very similar to this, but I like the Mach better. Gas mileage is really very good for a performance car at 23 - 28 mpg. If you can find a clean example at a decent price, go for it. I'll be keeping mine for a long while. It's sure to be a collector.
Favorite Features
I like the screaming yellow paint and how it is contrasted by the black accent stripes and parts. The shaker hood scope is way cool and so is the aluminum ball shifter knob. The instrument panel is great too. And of course, let's not forget the power and handling. It's all good.
Suggested Improvements
The front seat comfort could use a little improvement, don't know about the back seat, never been there. There aren't too many negative things to say about this baby. They got it pretty well right.

2004 Ford Mustang GT Deluxe 2dr Convertible (4.6L 8cyl 5M)
Review
I have owned classic hot rods from the 60's, this is as much fun to drive with the comforts of new options. This is my second Mustang GT convertible, love it!
Favorite Features
6 CD changer, mach stereo, Mustang rims, power top, leather interior
Suggested Improvements
A bit more head room for driver. Power seat makes you sit a bit high and feel a little crammed against the top of the car

2004 Ford Mustang 2dr Coupe (3.8L 6cyl 5M)
Review
Has very peppy accelleration, good braking if not great, handles like it's on rails, has fiberglass Deck-lid and hood and rear spoiler, 16" aluminum wheels. I did install a dual exhaust system with dual catalyst 2" pipes and my gas mileage went up by 3-MPG city and almost 7-mpg hwy. No joke it made a big difference, with the factory style headers it has always been dependable, never let us down.. and at 26-28 mpg hwy. I'm a happy camper, And I would for sure buy another one when this one is worn out. Great little sporty car!
Favorite Features
Steering, handling, braking, and pick- up/acceleration. styling inside and out. and easy to service with rear wheel drive I do about 65% of my own service at home, Oil/Filter etc.
Suggested Improvements
With the 5-spd. manual transmission I find that 1st. gear is very low, it winds up to 3000-RPM very quickly, this needs addressed, as well as 5th. gear a very tall over drive, either a 6-spd would be better or a higher ratio 1st. gear.

2004 Ford Mustang Mach 1 2dr Coupe (4.6L 8cyl 5M)
Review
Before getting the Mach1, I despised Fords and believed I would never buy one. The Mach1 was too good looking and fast to pass up. Its 40th anniversary emblems with its hood scoop and awesome rims turned heads. Its performance is great as well, but you pay for it in terms of gas mileage. Since owning the Mach1, I have not had anything go wrong. At worst, the interior dashboard and fixtures are cheap and quality but not something that cannot be replaced. Tires are costly but that is one of the costs anticipated when purchasing a high performance car. This is one vehicle
Favorite Features
Performance and styling. Mach1 sound system. Screaming Yellow paint.
Suggested Improvements
Better quality interior dashboard, sunroof or t-tops would be kool, a lower performance mode (turn off a couple cylinders on demand), continue production of Mach-1's.

2004 Ford Mustang 2dr Coupe (3.8L 6cyl 5M)
Review
I have had my car for about a year now and I love it. I have not had a single problem with it. I even drove it through the winter and I manage well. Driving slow and having a good pair of snow tires really makes a difference. Overall the car is amazing and I love it.
Favorite Features
The styling. The interior design is nice and the fact that it handles well is awesome.

2004 Ford Mustang GT Deluxe 2dr Coupe (4.6L 8cyl 5M)
Review
This was the first new car that I ever bought. In the nearly 4 years that I have owned Dixie (My wife named the car), I have not had one single problem. Well worth the wait to purchase a new mustang. Dixie is now and will always be a part of the family. I love my Mustang!
Favorite Features
Lots of power to go along with the low stance.

2004 Ford Mustang Deluxe 2dr Convertible (3.8L 6cyl 5M)
Review
The 2004 Anniversary Convertible is the way to go to celebrate your mid life crisis. The styling is sleek and the sonic blue is a classly color with twin 10" silver bumper to bumper stripes. The V-6 has more than enough power and the automatic shifts extremely smooth. The convertible top is quiet at highway speeds and is so simple to raise and lower. The bucket seats are firm and there is enough leg room and head room. Forget about the back seats being comfortable, they are there for looks only, not for carrying passengers. But, heck, the Stang is for having fun for two. The interior is well designed and controls are easy to reach and use. The fit and finsh is better than some more expense car
Favorite Features
The styling and looks and the convertible top.
Suggested Improvements
The cruise control needs a light on the dash like the 2005 Stangs have.

2004 Ford Mustang Mach 1 2dr Coupe (4.6L 8cyl 5M)
Review
This vehicle is a great value and takes me back to when I was a kid. I've always admired the Mach 1's from my youth and this one delivers on par with the original. Superior car on the road and always gets attention. My wife digs it too!
Favorite Features
Power, styling and stick shift.
Suggested Improvements
Could have used the 6-speed as 5th gear is a heck of an overdrive.
