Background Story of this 2005 Ford Mustang

Overview of 2005 Ford Mustang For Sale by Owner

The Ford Mustang is as ubiquitous as American Cheese and Hollywood glamour. The ultimate pony car has been in production since 1965, and it is safe to say it will probably be there when our great-grandkids are born. This puts the Mustang in a very unique position where the brand is popular enough that it has become common. To rectify this, the American performance manufacturer Saleen Inc introduced the Ford Mustang Saleen S281 3V, based on a 2005 Ford Mustang. Hop into this rare performance-enhanced 2005 Ford Mustang Saleen S281 3V that bears 31,000 miles on the odometer and is a dream car for any high-performance car fans.

Exterior and Interior

The Saleen designation on this 2005 Ford Mustang Saleen S281 3V is not just the mechanical aspects of it. In fact, this Mustang Saleen boasts an uber-brilliant Performance White Clearcoat finish. Saleen does a complete overhaul of the Mustangs body which includes a custom front fascia that boasts a clean design with the Saleen badge on the custom black-painted grille along with the custom turn signals. The sides feature a custom side skirt with minimalistic Saleen decals and Saleen badging. A major change from the stock Mustang is the rear, where it uses center-located rectangular dual exhaust tips reminiscent of the McLaren F1 and of course, the Saleen decals on the bumper. It sits on a set of white painted 7-spoke wheels with chrome Saleen centers. The interior is finished in a contrasting Dark Charcoal with leather appointments. Access to the interior is greeted by the custom Saleen door sills. Saleen customization goes in further with Saleen badging on the dash, Saleen branded black-faced gauges, a 3-spoke steering wheel with a Saleen center in black and red, and white Saleen stitching for the front bucket seats and rear seats. The seller reports that the factory Saleen window sticker is available.

Engine

The 2005 Ford Mustang features a 4.6L Modular V8 engine coupled with either an automatic or a manual. The 2005 Ford Mustang Saleen S281 3V takes this engine and ups the engine's output with several upgrades. These include a Saleen Performance air filter, Saleen 2 ½" variable flow performance center exhaust, Saleen Power Pulleys, and SFI-approved damper, as well as Racecraft suspension for better handling. All the aforementioned engine enhancements come together to produce 325hp of power.

1970 Ford Mustang Convertible

Current Ask
VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$55,000
SOLD

First generation Ford Mustangs are some of the most popular first-time classic cars around. Think we’re mistaken? Well, based on the amount of them that we’ve shifted, we beg to differ. With well over 2.5 million first-gen ‘Stangs created, there’s definitely no shortage of them around. You’ve got six or eight-cylinder power, three alluring body styles to pick from, and manual or automatic transmissions. So, choosing a first-generation Mustang is really down to your specific tastes and desires. Today’s example is a 1970 Ford Mustang Convertible from Portland, Oregon. It’s got a 302ci V8 under the hood, paired with a 3-speed SelectShift automatic gearbox, and also rocks an aftermarket radio. So do let us know if you’d like to own this sub-36,000 mile pony.

2008 Ford Mustang GT Convertible California Special

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$15,494
SOLD

At the 2003 North American Auto Show, Ford debuted a concept car that previewed what the next Mustang could be. The current at the time fourth generation was becoming a little long in the tooth and soft in the flesh, despite Ford trying to spice it up with variants such as the Cobra R. Then, two years later, the fifth generation dropped and…people lost their minds! Here was a Mustang that had fantastic retro-modern looks, a properly fierce face, and the powertrain mix to back it up. Sales skyrocketed, with over 160,000 being sold in the United States alone, for 2005! Sales did temper a little after the initial rush, but during its nine-year run, they never went below 70,000 units per year! Taking example of this 2008 Ford Mustang GT that’s available in Douglasville, Georgia, it’s not hard to see why. This particular car is a drop-top and comes with the potent all-new at the time, all-aluminum Modular V8 at the time. One key is included with the sale of this 106,654-mile car.

2012 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Super Snake Convertible CSM No. 12SS0033

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$114,995
SOLD

Ford’s association with Shelby and resultant Shelby Mustangs was resurrected in 2008, after a long hiatus. You see, Carroll Shelby saw the potential of the first generation Mustang way back in the Sixties and created a special line-up of Shelby Mustangs that were widely regarded as fine performance machines. After that, consecutive generations didn’t receive Shelby treatment until the fifth generation. We don’t know why the Mustang II, Fox Body or SN195 didn’t get the Shelby pampering, but that’s all in the past. Now, we have a machine that has indeed come from the stables of Shelby, a 2012 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Super Snake. This potent pony is up for grabs in St. Simons Island, Georgia, and reportedly packs 800 horsepower! It’s done only 12,000 miles and is said to be #33 of 200, with Shelby documentation included with the sale.
