DESCRIPTION:
The Mustang is quite possible the king of all American muscle cars in terms of its historical contributions and legendary prestige. It doesn’t hurt that the 2009 Ford Mustang is just as affordable today is ever. While the 210 horsepower V6-equipped Mustang doesn’t quite fit the bill, the 4.6L 300 horsepower V8 Mustang GT provides 320 ft-lb of torque is worth every penny with its heart-pounding acceleration. While it’s not as refined as its European and Asia competitors, it sure is raw and affordable (0 to 60 in 5.7 short seconds). The GT Deluxe trim includes larger 17” allow wheels, a rear spoiler, fog lamps, and sports seats. The GT Premium trim upgrades the sounds system to the Shaker 500 and sports leather-trimmed seating. Chrome exhaust, hood scoop, engine cover, heated seats, and auto-dimming mirrors are some options that can be added to the Mustang. If you’re looking for a cold-air induction setup, upgrade to the Mustang Bullitt and also spoil yourself with custom suspension tuning, high-performance brake pads, and 18” wheels. Other Mustang extensions are available and one of them is sure to fit your style. Fuel economy is a bit on the low side rated at 15/23mpg, which is comparable to the GMC Yukon and Chevy Tahoe. Overall, the 2009 Ford Mustang is what it has always been: a great, affordable package of unrefined sporty styling and performance.
