2014 Ford Mustang GT Convertible

Description

Ford's Mustang has been a slam-dunk for the company for more than 50 years, and one of the best things about cars like this 2014 Mustang GT convertible is that they still represent a huge amount of performance for not a lot of cash. Compared to new Mustangs, this 8938-original-mile GT ragtop represents a savings of almost 50% and with 5.0 Coyote power, it's every bit as fast. Pretty cool, right?

Wearing a sophisticated coat of Sterling Gray Metallic, this a grownup's Mustang. It's handsome, aggressive, yet subtle, and thanks to one fanatical owner who bought this as his dream car, it's in virtually new condition throughout. Of course, the aggressive look is bolstered by the dealer-installed Shaker hood scoop and deeper chin spoiler, giving it the ideal blend of form following function. The highest praise we can offer a car like this is that it's like new, and that pretty much covers this Mustang; apparently it has only been in the rain once! You can tell that someone loved it because the finish is deep and lustrous, the product of a lot of hand waxing over the past few years, and obviously it has never been hit or damaged. They skipped any of the usual stripes, although those hood vents and the rear wing certainly look sharp. Fog lights in the grille recall the factory GTs of the '60s and yes, the taillights are sequential, just like the Shelbys. It's like the greatest hits of the Ford Mustang, all wrapped up in a single ragtop.

Black leather looks fantastic inside the gray bodywork, and if you look closely, you'll spot white stitching on the seats, a nice upscale touch that really makes a difference. This Mustang GT is loaded with just about every option you could get, from power seats, windows, locks, and mirrors, to a powerful HVAC system, cruise control, and a quick-witted 6-speed automatic transmission. Silver accents on the dash and steering wheel look high tech and there's not a bit of faux wood to be found anywhere. The gauges resemble those found in a '67 Mustang, complete with the tall, narrow font on the gauge faces and the three-spoke wheel is wrapped in more luxurious leather. A touch-screen entertainment system with navigation is easy to use and remarkably effective and it converts from closed coupe to open convertible in a few seconds. That black canvas top is unmarked save for a few wrinkles and the trunk is like new, including the subwoofers for the Shaker stereo system.

The return of the 5.0 was big news, although this is no '60s relic. No, the Coyote V8 is a thoroughly modern DOHC V8 that cranks out 414 horsepower in the Mustang and makes the most wonderful exhaust sounds this side of Maranello. The engine bay is dominated by the functional hood scoop, which channels cool air directly into the air filter housing for maximum effect. It is otherwise stock and unmodified, which is exactly what you want to see in a second-hand Mustang. It's also just as spotless under the hood as it is outside, more evidence of a finicky owner. Maintenance was properly done at the dealership, so the car runs, drives, and feels virtually new. The transmission shifts imperceptibly if you're going easy, but stomp on the loud pedal and it snaps to attention and cracks off rifle shot upshifts that bark the tires. That Coyote motor is STRONG! Thanks to a Ford Performance exhaust system, you can hear that wondrous exhaust note in full-bore stereo and thanks to factory Brembo brakes there are no worries about keeping it in check. Upgraded 19-inch wheels were part of the package and they carry fat 255/40/19 Goodyear radials that look almost new.

Heavily documented with all the factory paperwork, window sticker, and receipts, this is an opportunity to own a high-quality late-model Mustang with zero vices. Call today!
