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 6the
generation 2017 Ford Mustang GT Premium Convertible is that they
still represent a huge amount of style and performance for not a
lot of cash. Compared to a brand-new Mustang, this
39,479-original-mile GT ragtop represents a huge savings, and with
a kickin' 5.0L Coyote packing 435 horsepower, it's every bit as
fast. Pretty cool, right?
Wearing a sinister coat of Jet Black paint, this is a grownup's
Mustang. It's handsome, aggressive, yet subtle, and thanks to
fanatical ownership who bought this as his dream car, it's in
wonderful condition throughout. Of course, the aggressive look is
bolstered by the aggressive hood and deep 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 practically like new, and
that pretty much covers this Mustang. 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 built-in rear wing certainly look
sharp, as does the rear diffuser with incorporated dual exhaust
tips. The redesigned front end of this generation was heavily
influenced by Ford's Evo concept car, the fog lights in the grille
recall the factory GTs of the '60s and yes, the famous vertical bar
taillights are sequential, just like the Shelbys. It's like the
greatest hits of the Ford Mustang, all wrapped up in a single
ragtop.
The special-order Saddle and Black leather looks fantastic inside
the all-black bodywork, and if you look closely, you'll spot very
intricate 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
ragtop to open convertible in a few seconds. That black canvas top
is unmarked save for a few wrinkles and the trunk is like new, with
plenty of room to accommodate most travel arrangements.
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
435 horsepower in the Mustang and makes the most wonderful exhaust
sounds this side of Maranello. The engine bay is dominated by the
strut tower brace, which stiffens the ride in the heavier
convertible version of the Mustang, and the rest of the
presentation is just as it looked leaving the factory floor. Stock
and unmodified, which is exactly what you want to see in a
second-hand Mustang with low miles. It's also just as spotless
under the hood as it is outside, more evidence of a finicky
previous 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 a standard fully-independent rear
suspension and factory Brembo brakes there are no worries about
keeping it in check. Upgraded 18-inch wheels were part of the
package and they carry fat 235/50/18 Michelin radials with plenty
of tread left.
Documented with all of its original factory manuals, this is an
opportunity to own a high-quality late-model Mustang with zero
vices. Call today!
