Reviews SummaryThe Ford Mustang is one of the most iconic vehicles ever made, and its recent overhaul brought new, retro styling, updated powertrain options, and new tech to the storied muscle car. The 2006 Mustang still rides high from that 2005 redesign, but gets a quieter interior and updated tech for the new model year. The Mustang is offered as either a fastback coupe or as a convertible, and can be had with either a V6 or V8 engine. The V6 is a 4.0-liter unit that produces 210 horsepower and 240 pound-feet of torque. The 4.6-liter V8 in the Ford Mustang GT makes 300 hp and 320 lb-ft of torque. A five-speed manual transmission and rear-wheel drive are standard. The Mustang competes against the Nissan 350Z, Hyundai Tiburon, Pontiac GTO, and Chrysler Sebring. It’s targeted at new-car buyers that want a classic American muscle car with the amenities of a modern vehicle. | |
Reviews SummaryAmerica’s sports car might be the Chevy Corvette, but with the arrival of the new 2005 Ford GT, America finally gets a true supercar. Hand-built in limited quantities, the mid-engine GT aims to cement Ford’s status as a global automaker capable of building everything from commercial trucks and affordable grocery-getters to lustworthy exotics. | |
