Fifth Generation Mustang

2005 to 2010

The Fifth Generation Mustang beginning with the 2005 Ford Mustang, brings in a fantastic new beginning for the venerable pony car.



2008 Ford Mustang GT



















The underpinnings of a good sports car can mean the victory or defeat on the road and the same to the buying public. A pretty face only goes so far and while a good number of buyers will opt for the new Mustang, strictly on its looks, the dyed in the wool enthusiast will demand more.

And more they did get. Hau Thai-Tang, the chief engineer for the project spent his earlier career as a race engineer for the CART (Championship Auto Racing Teams) program. And that experience helped the 2005 Mustang gain its road legs.

2005 Mustang

The new Mustang was made available in a fastback and convertible form, with a V8 powered GT option available for both body styles.

Standard 4 wheel disc brakes,lightweight 17" alloy wheels and a taught suspension, even on the convertible models,gives a satisfying base to the new improved styling up top.

The 2005 GT runs with a strong 4.6 liter V8 engine with 300 horsepower and bigger 18" wheels.

2006 Mustang

The Ford Mustang overall, was relatively unchanged for 2006. However a few new features appeared, that gathered a lot of interest from Mustang enthusiasts.

The Pony package reappeared after an almost 40 year hiatus and Ford and Shelby engineers once again recreated a modern version of the GT350H which was a for rental only special limited production car exclusively for Hertz. 2006 Shelby GT-H



















The new 2006 Mustang GT-H also brought back even more performance from the 4.6 liter modular engine.

Check out complete information and specs on the 2006 model.

2007 Mustang

The '07 model year was a carryover year, and as expected not a great deal changed, but a few cool changes of merit occurred.

Probably the most important one, was the comeback of the California Special.

Here's the new specs and changes on the 2007 Mustang .

Shelby Mustang Super Snake

The other cool thing about 2007 was the introduction by Ford and Shelby American of the Shelby Gt500 Mustang Super Snake, a fire breathing beast with a modified 5.4 liter V8, pounding out more than 600 horsepower!

2008 Mustang

For the 2008, fifth generation Mustang, it was about time for some important performance additions and resurrection. Ford jumped to fill the void just in time.

The California Special continued to be available as an option to any GT package, but the big news for this model year, was the return of the Shelby GT and the GT500KR, arguably the most powerful Mustang that Ford has ever built.

Check out these changes on the 2008 Mustang .

2009 Mustang

The 2009 Mustang continued its evolutionary styling and introduced some cool new features, including a panoramic roof.

The Mustang Bullitt made a return, from 2001 with its Hyland Green exterior and performance refinements and made a lot of enthusiasts happy.

The Bullitt upped the ante in the horsepower department from the already powerful 4.6 liter V8 engined GT, but the big guns really came out with the 540 horsepower GT500KR King of the Road.

Check out all these changes and more for the 2009 Mustang here.

2010 Mustang

The Fifth generation Mustang for 2010 incorporates some major interior and exterior styling changes as well as some important power increases.

Check out all the 2010 Mustang information and specs here.
