Great rep and image, even if it has become a Boomer Gen car for us 50-60 and up crowd. Outstanding vehicle performance and reliability for the entry price and very minimal maintenance costs. Depreciation appears decent over time. see full Chevrolet Corvette review

I see way too many of these things around. Most are the V6 variant which is just sad. I really feel like the wide variety of engines and packages dilutes the Mustang brand too much. I really think it is a poser car. see full Ford Mustang review
