Seeing the car for the first time, it does grab your attention with the original, nearly perfect, Torch Red paint and it’s stock unblemished Factory Alloy Rims. If one were to attempt guessing the year of the car, it would be easy to assume it was just a couple of years old. Our consigner shared with us that they only knew of three times it had been driven in the rain and the car had always been garaged. From the folder of receipts it has been regularly serviced and maintenance items attended too (most of the service records are scanned and added to our images).

Opinions are like other parts of the body, everyone has one or two and that makes this a unique experience. We have had over the past years several late model Mustangs ranging from 315hp to 500hp. Enjoyment all boiled down to a simple realization after driving this beautifully preserved stock Mustang GT Convertible, a great car should not be distracting to enjoy. Plenty of power is good enough but too much has brought out the 16 year old knucklehead in me

And back to the car at hand. I really loved driving the car. It was absolutely solid and rattle free. The top is incredibly easy to use and it appears there is a cover in the trunk that has not been taken out of the original wrapper. The interior is spotless other than the driver’s side seat bolster having some minor wear from a driver getting in and out, quite similar to the exterior’s excellent condition.

Underneath that are no marks or signs of corrosion, it has definitely been garage kept and pampered the past 16 years. The receipts of numerous oil changes over the 45,000 miles reinforce the pleasure the owners had in keeping the car as pristine as possible.
