Vehicle Description
2011 Ford Mustang GT Coupe
"The ingredients needed to make a Mustang: horsepower, horsepower,
and more horsepower, plus a chrome pony, a glove box, and a
cigarette lighter. Thankfully, Ford has embellished on this old
fashioned recipe with a car that handles, gets decent fuel economy
when driven mildly, and doesn't consume your driveway like the much
larger and heavier Chevy Camaro and Dodge Challenger." thx Car and
Driver, 3/29/10
For consignment, a 2011 Ford Mustang GT coupe with a title verified
32,599 actual miles and some tasteful mods that stealthily improve
handling, stance, and more obviously, sound. This car's always been
garaged, and it's good looks use Ford's fifth generation Mustang
and adds just a pinch of spice to the recipe.
Note: Due to modifications of the emissions control devices
installed by the manufacturer, please check your local, state, and
federal laws to determine if this vehicle is applicable for use on
public highways in your area
Exterior
The running horse is gone from the grille and so is the honeycomb
design and in its place a more streamlined grille with horizontal
streaks in black which picks up on the lower air intake and fog
light surround for an overall clean and aggressive face. While
we're up here, we notice some rock chips on the bumper cover and
nose which are painted Kona Blue as the rest of the car. The hood
has a slight bulge and like the other performance cues on the car,
is subtle and not boy racer over the top. That applies to the color
keyed spoiler on the rear decklid and black valance that houses the
dual tips. Wind cutting lines present in the car's profile which is
swept back and smooth as glass, not ladened down by air ducts,
vents, or body work. 19-inch Forgestar F14 wheels in Gloss
Anthracite look stunning on the blue car, wearing staggered size
tires tucked into the wheel openings with the help of suspension
mods we'll talk about soon. Other than those rock chips on the
front, the car is near flawless on the exterior.
Interior
The running horse makes an appearance on the door panels which are
cleanly molded black plastic with chrome rimmed speakers and blue
stitched leather inserts. The Ebony leather bucket seats mirror the
blue stitching and include a Grabber Blue stripe down the middle on
the inserts, perhaps a nod to legendary Mustangs of the past. Two
plus two seating in the back is colored in the same pattern and
materials and provides some cozy seating as well as pull down seat
backs for trunk expansion. A fat leather wrapped steering wheel
doubles as the radio and cruise control panel and fronts a pair of
gauges backlit in blue, somewhat retro in their font choice and a
speedometer that reaches 160 mph. Between the circles four more
sources of operational information. In the center stack, a flat
presentation of radio and climate controls, a slot for a CD, and a
digital screen. A beefy shifter is in the center console and
provides a nice hand rest once you settle on Drive and hit the open
road. Low pile black carpet presents cleanly as does the soft
charcoal molded headliner above.
Drivetrain
Under the hood is the very clean 5.0 liter Coyote V8 and with the
JLT cold air intake and Bama Tune, it's likely this canine has a
sharper bite. It's fuel injected and rated at 415 horsepower, set
into motion via a 6R80 6-speed automatic transmission sending power
to the 8.8" rear with 3.73 gears and TracLoc. Naturally, power disc
brakes are on board to harness this Coyote. A strut tower brace
spans the width of the bay for added stability.
Undercarriage
Okay, here's where things get even more interesting. The stock
suspension configuration is coil springs up front and a 3 link,
coil springs, and panhard bar in the rear. Our consignor has added
BMR adjustable upper and lower control arms, Ford Racing springs
lowered 1.25", and Ford Racing dampers. A 3" catless midpipe has
been added to the exhaust system along with GT500 mufflers and our
consignor states the original catted midpipe will come with the
vehicle. Beyond these items, the condition underneath is very clean
with some typical surface rust but not road dirt, extra grease, or
errant fluids.
Drive-Ability
We have some Mustang guys on staff and they're liking this one!
Sleeper status goes away when you unleash the Coyote and there are
few V8 sounds better than an unburdened modern 5.0. The car has all
the acceleration you'd expect from 400+ horses and it handles like
a speed train on rails. Simple mods underneath create a car that's
practically trackable but oh so fun on the street, where it will
likely spend most of its time. During our short drive, all
functions work as intended. While Classic Auto Mall represents that
these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we
cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of
your purchase.
Want a high performance Mustang without the exterior flash of
special models? Want to fly under the radar with the ability to fly
around curves? Want a spicy dish with ingredients that are folded
into the mix and nearly imperceptible to the eye? This tasteful GT
is the answer, and my Spidey senses tell me this is one Coyote that
will be leaving our pack quickly. Call the mall and dial five point
zero today!
