Replying to: pony_pirate (Mar 06, 2006 1:41 pm) Correct, it is only a V6. For some of us , we just need an above average sporty convertible that is enjoyable to drive with style. We don't need the 5 second 0 to 60 or 150 mph top speed. What puzzles me, is why does the GT only have the 17 inch wheels with the 235/55/17 Pirellis. Isn't that a little bit under tired? I think this setup on my V6 convertible with the pony pkg. should have been standard on all V6 mustangs. Also correction some 2005 V6 deluxe are now $6,000 below MSRP.

Replying to: durability05 (Mar 06, 2006 5:33 pm) 18 inchers are now an option. To my knowledge, they don't improve performance one whit, only make the car look moree aggressive. Instead, imo, it would be better to have stickier, not larger, tires than the Pirelli's, which I plan to put on, after the factory Pirelli's have worn out. There's no comparison betweem the V8 and V6. Different brakes and suspension, different ride, different car. With the V6, all you get is the shell, not the substance. My advice, save up your money for a GT ... or buy a Honda. Replies to this message: lmm (Mar 07, 2006 9:51 am) pony_pirate (Mar 07, 2006 2:27 pm) durability05 (Apr 26, 2006 8:05 pm)

Replying to: pony_pirate (Mar 06, 2006 9:00 pm) the pony pkg for the V6 add 4wheel ABS, TCS and a stronger suspension package, 17in wheels. Making it barely perceptible in respect to handling from a GT except, except of course for HP. Get a new tune for the v6 and you will be breaking your tires in any gear just as easily as the GT. All the naysayers on V6, hey GT'ers why didnt you wait for the GT500 if you really want performance. Replies to this message: pony_pirate (Mar 07, 2006 2:27 pm)

Replying to: lmm (Mar 07, 2006 9:51 am) Thought of it, talked to dealers. Decided to sit out the first year, see how the pieces fall, prices settle down, the car actually works (or doesn't). Still the Pony package, imo, clutters up the front grill with useless chrome and misses the heart of the beast, the 4.6 l 24-valve aluminum small-block high-torque V8, which makes the car practically jump out of its skin. And, yup, the V6 lacks that glorious rumble.

Carman, Could I please get the residual and INT Rate on an 06 Mustang GT for 24 &36 months. I would get 10 or 12K Per year. Hopefully Ford has come off that 8% INT. Rate. Thanks! Replies to this message: Car_man (May 22, 2006 8:08 am)

Replying to: pony_pirate (Mar 06, 2006 9:00 pm) The Pony Pkg V6 has most of the goodies of the GT, except the Engine. My Pony Pkg V6 convertible cost the same as a deluxe GT, and I already have a Honda??
#27 of 90 Leasing and other questions by blackbeauty2 Apr 29, 2006 (7:45 am)
So happy that I found this site discussion. I am looking to lease a 2006 GT convertable for two years. Any advice? I am thinking 2 years because I don't want to be locked in long term if I end up not loving it. After two years I can get another one or buy something in my price range. I will have had two years of fun. That's my story; here's my question. Why is it so hard to find this car in a standard transmission. (IMO IT SHOULD NOT EVEN COME IN AN AUTOMATIC ). And who has experience driving it in bad weather, snow, rain, etc. Many thanks. Looking to hear from you. Replies to this message: lmm (May 01, 2006 11:24 am) gzgtp (May 16, 2006 8:46 am)
#28 of 90 Leasing with the x plan by ogmaster Apr 30, 2006 (10:57 pm)
I'm checking around here and there and I think I've narrowed my choice of cars down to a Mustan 06 and Mazda3 06. My question is that I can get on the xplan deal from Ford, which makes a V6 Mustang at around 18k. I wondered how that translated into a 24/36 mo lease deal? I'd appreciate any help.

Replying to: blackbeauty2 (Apr 29, 2006 7:45 am) it's a RWD car. It goes fine in snow and rain. Replies to this message: gzgtp (May 16, 2006 8:46 am)
