Midnight blue, your 06' looks stunning, seriously stunning and its all 100% original, how were able to keep it that way! I tried to buy an 05' when that body style first came out but living in Detroit at the time it was very hard to get one as so many people got discounts, so I passed on the car. I even got to test drive one on my birthday, couldn't believe how it sounded stock, I even bought a set of Halibrand wheels w/ billet knockoffs for it when it would come in, ended being told I would have to wait for an 06' and got bummed out and pulled the plug. I ordered a white one w/red interior, Mach 1000 and stock Bullett-styled wheels, spoiler delete too, oh well, I guess it wasn't mean't to be. Once again, your car looks amazing and I'm sure its been well maintained, when you sell it people will be knocking down the door to get it, this I'm sure of!
Thank you Klasse Act! I've wanted a Mustang GT since they came out with the retro style back in 2005. I got back into Mustangs in 2008 after a serious medical event in which I had my Thyroid Gland removed. Since we had recently purchased a 2008 Mercury Mariner, I was limited to a late model Mustang. I bought the 2002 V6, Automatic Mustang and for five years restored it and made it look like a GT.
In October 2013 I decided to sell my 2002 Mustang and look for a 2005 or newer Mustang. My budget basically limited me to looking at V6 Automatic Mustangs. I came across this car advertised on Craig's List by a local used car dealer. The pictures looked good and the Premium Leather Interior looked good too. He had reduced the price to fit into my budget if I could sell my 2002 Mustang. When I went to look at the car I realized why he couldn't sell it as it had 146,500 miles on it. Having retired as a Sales & Marketing Rep I wasn't too concerned about the mileage as these were obviously "road miles". The dealer had bought the car at auction and we speculated that a female owned the car due to the lack of wear on the interior. The dealer switched out the stock 17" wheels for 19" California Special wheels off a 2011 Mustang. I sold my 2002 Mustang for $6,300 and only paid $9,000 for the GT!
Once I got it I put on on four new Goodyear RSA Tires, 2 new tie rods, had the throttle body cleaned, replaced the serpentine belt and added XADO, a product that repairs internal engine wear on a nano technology level.
I completely detailed the car (several times) using Griot's Garage Clay Bar, Machine Polish 3 and Paint Sealant. I used Griot's Leather Cleaner and Conditioner to clean and renourish the leather seats.
I'm now using Croftgate USA Detailing Products. I use their Wash & Wax which is fast, easy, economical and does an outstanding job. I use a product called Project X which is a polish, paint enhancer and sealant and Quick N Slick which is also a Paint Sealant. I apply the Project X and the Quick N Slick with Black Waxing Pads and my Griot's Orbital Polisher. The Project X and Quick N Slick give the paint a wet look and it holds up very well.
To clean my engine, which I just recently did as it had 148,000 miles of grunge, dirt and grease on it, I used Griot's Engine Degreaser and their Engine Dressing.
I detailed 4 Mustangs for friends and club members before they went to the 50th Anniversary Celebration of the Mustang going on right now in Charlotte, NC.
Here are some photos of my interior and some photos taken at the St. Patrick's Day Parade in Baltimore last month.
