    I like the newly unveiled 2024 Mustang but the S197 Mustang has a retro charm that doesn't age. Whenever I see a good condition 2005 Mustang GT in a parking lot I am still awe struck by how good they look even in 2022. They just look like a real 60's Mustang should in modern day sheet metal. I hope Ford goes back to this shape one day with very minimal changes.

I am the original and third owner on an 09 GT (by complete luck it came back into my life). I also have an 08 GT coupe and 08 GT/CS convertible. I fell in love with the spy photos during their development and the first one I saw in person at the 40th anniversary in Nashville sealed the deal. They are the 57 Chevy of their time and I’ll never be without one.

    Great Video! Truly love the 05-09 Mustangs. To be honnest I know that Coyote engines is way better but I think but the 3V was not bad either. They still running strong after all these years and they are proven pretty solid so far. Some people says the best would be to engine swap a Coyote engine and I agree on performance perspective. But good luck finding an engine alone, it's almost better and cheaper finding a complete car and pull out it's engine. Coyote engines alone are rare and they do sell it high sticker price.

    Not better engine, just a bigger engine. A 5.0 liter vs. 4.6 liter which brings a little more power. Having said that, the 2005 to 2009 was the most reliable of all Mustangs and all Sport cars, muscle cars, etc. The 2010 thru 2023 have some issues which lower the reliability of the Mustang. Check out Consumer Reports where they were surprised how reliable the 2005 thru 2009 Mustang were.

The Shaker 1000 system has got to be the best sounding factory system I've ever heard, before and even at the time i grabbed this car I was a Camaro guy and still am. It's pretty cool having them both, they're very similar in many ways, what's there not to like?

I don't drive the car enough, I used to be heavily into car audio for awhile, I once had four 12 inch subs in a 4th gen Camaro Z28, I'll never be able to replicate that system, it was nasty. As far as the stock Shaker 1000 goes, it's nothing like a couple aftermarket systems I've done but for what it is I gotta say I was impressed with it the first time I heard it, I did have to change the head unit to something more modern with Bluetooth. Lastly, I am getting a little older too and unfortunately I can't spend money like I used to. If money was no object then hell yeah I'd upgrade all my cars, haha..

Even though it's just a V6, the Grandpa owner before me put on true dual exhaust with THRUSH tube mufflers, she sounds great. I've just done the 100,000 mile maintenance with new plugs, wires, and a DEMON coil pack upgrade. Plus new tires and upgraded slotted rotors all around, and a square K&N filter in the stock air box. I didn't buy it to be a track star, I needed to trade in a Chevy with an oil leak and it looks great in a sea of crossover SUVs and mini vans.

    I owned a 2007 GT/CS convertible since new until I had to sell it this past summer due to a bad left knee. The 5 speed manual was excellent and the clutch was perfect. Zero issues and no trips back to the dealer ever. Maintenance is key and no shortcuts should be taken. All fluids were changed ahead of schedule and I was rewarded with the best car I ever owned as far as repairs in my 50+ years of driving. The performance is fine with the 4.6L but certainly no race car. I never used it for that purpose. I'll always have kind words for this model. By the way, if wondering what I replaced it with, it was a 2014 GT with A6. Found one with just 8,000 miles on it and I hope to have the same excellent experience.

    The Shaker 1000 was offered right off the bat on the S197 models introduced for 2005(not 2006 as Landon said). I bought a new GT in March of 2005 and test drove several cars before purchasing. The dealer mark-ups were crazy back then, with some dealers here in SoCal asking $10,000-15,000 over sticker(for a GT)! I test drove a black GT with the Shaker 1000 and the Interior Upgrade Package, the sticker was $31,000, but the dealer was asking for $36,000, I wasn't interested. I stumbled upon a small dealership in Fullerton CA(it's still in business) that didn't have any mark-ups. I got my Premium GT for $28,000. I then bought a 2006 GT the following year when Ford had 0% financing, I bought a leftover 2009 GT in 2010, this one is loaded with HID headlamps, Glass Roof and Ambient lighting. I still own the '09, I was bummed when I reached 100,000 miles last month 😞.

    Best retro body style. The 3v was a good motor. Not the power plant of the coyote, but can be built just as good or possibly a little better. Need to ponie up if you want to make this what a built of a coyote motor can deliver. You have to forge all the internal parts of a 3v. You can get away with just replacing the oil pump gears if you're looking for 700 + hp in the coyote motor. 3v isn't capable of that unless you forge it. I spent the money before the the coyote motor was before nobody knew they were being developed. I probably wouldn't have done it if I knew the coyote motor was coming.
