This 2006 Ford Mustang GT Convertible is a pretty cool machine. It
takes a powerful V8 and five-speed drop-top and adds a ton of
sporty flair with the best from Shelby, Saleen, and more. So if you
love them powerful, distinct, and all-around fun, you need to get
to know this pony car.
The vibrant color on this convertible is certainly not stock. Heck,
it looks like it was borrowed from the new Mustang Mach-E, and the
Electron Blue name sounds like it, too. But really what this is is
a custom wrap over a factory black car. So it's like an added layer
of protection from the little stones on your favorite backroads.
And it's easy to change to a more subdued color whenever you want
to...but why would you? After all, the electric-level hue looks
terrific in the sunshine, and sunny Sunday drivers are exactly why
you want a drop-top modern classic. And the color is only the
beginning of the appeal. The front end gets more aggressive with a
Shelby GT500KR-style hood. The sides get brighter with Saleen
20-inch polished alloys. And the rear looks meaner with the Saleen
S281-style rear end featuring center-exit exhaust.
The dark black roof looks nice against the bright blue, and so it's
great to see that when you take it down, there's a full black
leather interior waiting for you. A Mustang GT like this means you
have equal parts premium and comfort. It starts with the best
features, like cold-blowing air conditioning, cruise control, power
locks, power steering, keyless entry, a cup holder center console,
dual front airbags, side airbags, and an upgraded AM/FM/CD stereo
with Bluetooth. Plus, power windows and a power convertible top
means you can open this up to the world without leaving the
driver's seat. In fact, you have a true command position. Your
high-back bucket seats power adjusts to the ideal position. The
steering wheel is on a tilt column to give you a clear view of the
full gauges. And the shifter just seems to be exactly where your
right hand wants to be.
This carries its numbers-matching 4.6-liter V8 engine. The GT's 3V
SOHC fuel-injected motor remains refreshingly stock. It's a 300
horsepower pony, and it makes a terrific tune out of the dual
exhaust. Best of all you get to unleash the full power and rumble
thanks to the control of the five-speed manual transmission. Add in
the GT's sports suspension, four-wheel power disc brakes w/ABS, and
grippy ZR-rated tires, and this makes for a solid drop-top sports
car.
This is a terrific driver's car. That means it's not showroom
perfect, but it also shows the kind of respect you get from a
vehicle that has only averaged about 5k miles annually. This is all
about being the affordable, attractive, and distinct drop-top pony
that encourages you to get out and drive. Call today!!!
