The engine was rated at 222 horsepower and 300 lb-ft of torque.
With only 53,000 miles, or just 1,700 miles per-year on average, this Mustang is a very low-mileage car.
It's exceptional condition bears that out.
The car's exterior is near perfect, from single-frame headlights to louvered taillights.
The white paint retains a factory-like gloss over straight body panels with factory tolerances.
Of special note, the GT's bespoke lower-body treatments with front air intake incorporating driving lights, four side brake-cooling intakes, and rear sculpted valance all exhibit no scars, wear marks, or signs of any damage whatsoever.
The red horizontal accent stripe that adds a dramatic unifying element is an added feature of note.
A luggage rack is mounted atop the trunk.
The power-operated black convertible top is free of wear marks or signs of abrasion and is properly fitted.
It stores beneath a gray cover.
All emblems-notably including the 5.
0 engine identification-are present.
Glass and lighting lenses are all clear and free of cracks or clouding.
Turbine-design alloy wheels are free of curb damage.
Inside, the door-sill step-over areas show signs of owner care with an absence of scrapes from heedless foot-dragging.
The darker gray color scheme throughout with black accents makes for an easy-to-live-with look.
Overall, interior surfaces show only minimal signs of wear, and light patina.
The pleated-leather upholstery has a classic design.
The driver's seat bolster has age-appropriate wear, and a small tear at the rear of the seat cushion.
Door trim, dashboard, the boot cover, even the 5-speed shifter (including its leather boot) all retain their original appearance.
The instruments, steering wheel, and all buttons (including power window and mirror controls) and related surfaces are uniformly free of obvious wear.
The factory AM-FM-Cassette Stereo is mounted in the center stack beneath the heating and air-conditioning controls.
Gray carpeting throughout is protected by matching carpet mats.
Under the hood, the GT's high-output 5-liter V8 is complete with all components, wiring, hoses and the like properly mounted.
