Faults:

Nothing has gone wrong, yet. The clutch has developed a squeak at low to moderate speeds. Sound disappears at highway speed. I'm starting to have some problems with gear synchronization when down shifting from 2nd to 1st. I'm hoping it can be cured by a simple adjustment, but will probably require replacing entire clutch assembly.

General Comments:

It is a fun car to drive.

Comfortable seats make long trips more enjoyable.

Relatively good on fuel, giving as much as 32 to 34 mpg on the highway using the cruise control.

This is my second 94 Mustang, first was bought new in 94. I much prefer the auto transmission I had in the first one.

Body roll when cornering takes some getting used to. Handling could be tighter.

A rethink on the placement of the cup holder would have been nice. Ford dropped the ball in that area.

Fit and finish is exceptionally good.

Faults:

I have never had anything go out of this car. I think Ford did a great job. The only think I can see is it does not like to start in the winter. But what ford does.

General Comments:

Its fast the handling is good I have seen better, but I did not pay 60 thousand dollars for this one. I don't drive it anymore. I just had it repainted not due to the paint going bad, but due to kids hitting it with bats. Hey I love it I will never have a Chevy.

Faults:

I had a scratchy sound when the car was not warm, I felt it in the clutch. I recently had the vehicle checked out and found that I needed a new bearing. Since then, I have not heard the noise, otherwise I have not had any major service to the vehicle. Shocks not very good on this model, or my shocks are bad.

General Comments:

I have had this car for about a year and over the last year I have had many good comments made about my purchase.

My Mustang handles well.

Low Maintenance.

Fun to drive.

Affordable.

Faults:

Check engine light on at 3500 miles

Three sets of tires in four years (front ones were bad not from burning rubber)

Taillights paint faded.

Clutch needed to be replaced

Repairs totaled over $7000.

General Comments:

At 3500 miles the check engine light came one. I had 4000 in repairs int the first 2 years, all under warranty, but repairs too a week minimum to fix. The alignment was off and after 4 alignments at 3 different locations. I contacted Ford and the denied there was a problem. I was on my Third set of tires in 4 years. I later found out that that Taurus' have the same problem. Ford finally had an independent investigator come to my house and test drive my car and look at the book of repairs. They gave me $2000 to purchase a new vehicle because they were tired of listening to me. I now have a Ranger again and that is only because I got a $15,000 truck for $11,000 after rebates and the $2000 Ford check. This is my second Ranger and I like it a lot. Fords are cheap, but you will not get anything for them on trades. My $17,000 Mustang was worth $7,000 in trade after 3 years, when I tried to get a Toyota.

Faults:

Head gasket blew, under warranty. Got it on a recall at 99,000 miles, very lucky to get that for free.

Nothing has gone wrong except routine maintenance stuff, a battery here, a tire change there.

General Comments:

The car only has 15 inch rims, but still handle really well. Must be the tight suspension.

I race the car around town and it runs really well.

Really long gears. I do 52 in first, 85 in second and 110 in third, then the limiter sets in.

The seats are really comfortable, I really enjoy riding low in them. Get a lot of looks in it with my setup, stripes and tint and some custom paint on the sides.

Can't peel out very well, but I can make it seem fast on a rolling start with the semi-auto shifter. It is so slow out of the hole I wanna cry, but it looks sweet and rides very smoothly.
