2007 Ford Mustang Mustang for sale

Current customer rating: current rating for this car(2.15) based on 161 votes

I bought this car two years ago with 9000 original miles.  It now has 27800 gently applied miles and has always been garqage kept.   The airbag recall has been done. four new Michelins and recent fresh oil change.   The car has never been raced or abused.   As you can see from the photos. the garage is too crowded and something has to go.  

 

These cars began life as a Mustang GT and Shelby added  the GT's performance hardware  means a Ford Racing Powerpack. consisting of a 90mm cold-air intake system and more aggressive calibration of the engine management system. mandating the use of premium fuel. Ford Racing performance mufflers and an X-pipe. replacing the standard H-shaped crossover. complete the powertrain mods. Although output was originally estimated at 325 horsepower. Ford has since recertified the package at 319 horses and 330 pound-feet of torque.

Underneath. Ford Racing provides new struts and shocks. which reduce the ride height about an inch and a half. Stiffer anti-roll bars improve body control and make for flatter cornering. And a race-inspired twin-tube strut tower base increases chassis rigidity in the engine bay and sharpens up steering response. The Ford Racing bits are factory developed. well matched to each other. and warranted by Ford. Last. the entire rearend is swapped for a new unit carrying a 3. 55:1 diff ratio; it's cheaper and faster to change out the entire axle than to open up the pumpkin and replace the ring and pinion.

Whether on the test track. highway. or your favorite stretch of mountain pavement. you'll notice a substantial difference in the way the Mustang performs in Shelby GT trim. Given a 19-horsepower increase. you wouldn't expect a huge drop in acceleration times. but we got consistent 0-to-60 runs of five seconds flat. a nip better than the usual 5. 1-5. 2 seconds for the stock GT. But the sensations make it feel like more. There's a deep. throbbing intake roar from the open-element air filter and wonderful subwoofer noises courtesy of the exhaust system. You'll be driving this thing through parking garages just to set off a few car alarms. The stouter rear gear helps. too; the car launches harder. revs up quicker. and midrange passing power again feels like more than 19 ponies' worth. The Hurst shift cures the stock unit's side-to-side slop when in gate. Baby it. and it feels notchy. but treat it like a precision rifle bolt. and it snaps from gear to gear.

 

Handling improvements are more tangible. The combination of the decreased ride height (hence lower center of gravity). stiffer springs and anti-roll bars. and 18-inch rolling stock gives the Shelby sharper responses and higher limits. We've not previously tested a stock GT with the 18s. but the unmodified car with the standard 17s pulled a 0. 87g grip number on the skidpad. The Shelby GT sticks all the way to 0. 91 g. The MT figure-eight time also improves. from the Mustang GT's 26. 4 to the Shelby GT's quicker 25. 7-second blitz. This number tells us how effective all the mods are. as it synthesizes acceleration. braking. and handling performance. As you'd expect. there's a ride penalty. but not to the point of making the car unstreetable. or even unpleasant. Bumps and road chop are more prevalent. especially on poor-quality surfaces. Also be sure to keep that now-inch-and-a-half-lower front spoiler away from curbs and parking blocks.
