Vehicle Description
Ford's Mustang has been a slam-dunk for the company for more than
50 years, and one of the best things about cars like this 2014
Mustang GT convertible is that they still represent a huge amount
of performance for not a lot of cash. Compared to new Mustangs,
this 8938-original-mile GT ragtop represents a savings of almost
50% and with 5.0 Coyote power, it's every bit as fast. Pretty cool,
right?
Wearing a sophisticated coat of Sterling Gray Metallic, this a
grownup's Mustang. It's handsome, aggressive, yet subtle, and
thanks to one fanatical owner who bought this as his dream car,
it's in virtually new condition throughout. Of course, the
aggressive look is bolstered by the dealer-installed Shaker hood
scoop and deeper chin spoiler, giving it the ideal blend of form
following function. The highest praise we can offer a car like this
is that it's like new, and that pretty much covers this Mustang;
apparently it has only been in the rain once! You can tell that
someone loved it because the finish is deep and lustrous, the
product of a lot of hand waxing over the past few years, and
obviously it has never been hit or damaged. They skipped any of the
usual stripes, although those hood vents and the rear wing
certainly look sharp. Fog lights in the grille recall the factory
GTs of the '60s and yes, the taillights are sequential, just like
the Shelbys. It's like the greatest hits of the Ford Mustang, all
wrapped up in a single ragtop.
Black leather looks fantastic inside the gray bodywork, and if you
look closely, you'll spot white stitching on the seats, a nice
upscale touch that really makes a difference. This Mustang GT is
loaded with just about every option you could get, from power
seats, windows, locks, and mirrors, to a powerful HVAC system,
cruise control, and a quick-witted 6-speed automatic transmission.
Silver accents on the dash and steering wheel look high tech and
there's not a bit of faux wood to be found anywhere. The gauges
resemble those found in a '67 Mustang, complete with the tall,
narrow font on the gauge faces and the three-spoke wheel is wrapped
in more luxurious leather. A touch-screen entertainment system with
navigation is easy to use and remarkably effective and it converts
from closed coupe to open convertible in a few seconds. That black
canvas top is unmarked save for a few wrinkles and the trunk is
like new, including the subwoofers for the Shaker stereo
system.
The return of the 5.0 was big news, although this is no '60s relic.
No, the Coyote V8 is a thoroughly modern DOHC V8 that cranks out
414 horsepower in the Mustang and makes the most wonderful exhaust
sounds this side of Maranello. The engine bay is dominated by the
functional hood scoop, which channels cool air directly into the
air filter housing for maximum effect. It is otherwise stock and
unmodified, which is exactly what you want to see in a second-hand
Mustang. It's also just as spotless under the hood as it is
outside, more evidence of a finicky owner. Maintenance was properly
done at the dealership, so the car runs, drives, and feels
virtually new. The transmission shifts imperceptibly if you're
going easy, but stomp on the loud pedal and it snaps to attention
and cracks off rifle shot upshifts that bark the tires. That Coyote
motor is STRONG! Thanks to a Ford Performance exhaust system, you
can hear that wondrous exhaust note in full-bore stereo and thanks
to factory Brembo brakes there are no worries about keeping it in
check. Upgraded 19-inch wheels were part of the package and they
carry fat 255/40/19 Goodyear radials that look almost new.
Heavily documented with all the factory paperwork, window sticker,
and receipts, this is an opportunity to own a high-quality
late-model Mustang with zero vices. Call today!
