Sleeper is not the term you're looking for. I think "unsuspecting" fits in this situation.

[@ThatDudeinBlue]

Boom.nailed it.

[@TheBb6prelude]

naijaflavor60 it’s a sleeper considering people expect to run into a car that runs low 14s to high 13s with a good driver. When in reality it has a super charger and should be deep 12s

[@StreetSpeed717]

Good alternative for people who can't afford a newer stang.You can pick one of these up with decent mileage and condition for like $9,000-$15,000 and a good supercharger is only about $5,000 all said and done. Good job David!

[@junjun5990]

My goal is to get the 2013/2014 5.0 by summer 2016. The 05-09 will be my second choice. But I'm determined to get the 5.0. I'm not really into the newer models.....except for the Shelby.

[@StreetSpeed717]

Jun Jun just save up and wait for what you really want. I was gonna get a C6 Vette but ended up waiting for what I really wanted, a C7 and it was such a better choice. Don't jump the gun lol

[@mycomputergl0wsblu]

Say whatever you like about this car, but its the reason that there is a Camaro and a Challenger again. After 2002, other than the Terminator, the American Muscle/Pony car scene didn't have much to offer. The S197 reopened the market. Made everybody step their game up. Just like the original. It's great to be an American car guy today, we are in a great era.

[@richardlacourse2944]

Terminator brought back the horsepower wars, but the s197 looked like a mustang again!

[@markevans658]

Richard Lacourse Can you have a war by yourself?

[@richardlacourse2944]

Mark evans, apparently you can start it by yourself, there was no competition when the terminator came, camaro disappeared for how long, and where was the challenger, hmmm, chevy and everyone else jumped on the bandwagon after,

[@markevans658]

Richard Lacourse the Terminator is a great car but it didn’t start the horsepower wars. It’s pretty much universally accepted that the S197’s sales numbers triggered Chevrolet and Dodge to jump back in the game at all, Then GT500 was answered initially by the limited SRT Challenger and it took Camaro a couple more years to bring out the ZL1. The Terminator had nothing to do with any of that. Still a good car though.

[@richardlacourse2944]

The s197 brought retro back to muscle car scene, it didnot bring horse power until 2007, to think the terminator had nothing to do with it is wrong, i own a cobra and a S197, the S197 is a good car and i like it, but its not the same, and im done, have a good day,

[@fastford207]

I dont know why people hate on the 05-09 series of mustang. IMO they are the best looking mustang, really the only thing that beats it, is the ass end of an 04 Termi Cobra. with the sexy ass Borla Exhaust.

[@junjun5990]

I absolutely love the 05-09 mustangs. However, I love the coyotes better.

[@unaidedplace4159]

I grew up my whole life wanting one of these, finally got it 5-6 months ago. Zero regrets, absolutely love the thing and I love the interior plasticky and all! Lol, just the styling of the interior, I guess it just hits different when you grow up idolizing everything about the damn car. Can't wait to continue doing mods to mine, but the wheel hop is already sketch when stock so I can only imagine how it felt in that beast! Haha. Panhard bar is in order.

[@ramonfranco7049]

[@jstample]

I love mine. I got my 2005 GT in 2012, sold it in 2017 and regretted it almost immediately. I eventually got a 2007 GT last year (2022) and I have a blast with it.

[@acbvisuals6621]

Couldn’t have said it better myself lol.. love mine

[@navyman8903]

I've got to say, after owning a 4.6 s197 for 9 years. (2006 White GT Premium Manual, and my current car 2008 Bullitt), They're not that bad. For what it is, the 4.6L 3V is solid. It's not impossible to drive hard around corners, the power isn't bad, and it's not a dog. The engine responds to mods well, and they're not as heavy as 5.0's. They're user friendly and solid. Not saying the improvements made to the 5.0's are nominal or worthless. They're not, but the S197 4.6's are not bad cars, hard to drive, or Dogs by any means. It's still a driver's car. I'm looking to get a 5.0 next year, but I'm keeping my Bullitt and planning to keep modding it.

Keep up the good work!!!

I have a 2010 Mustang GT premium with the 4.6 3 valve and I absolutely love it. To me,not trying to be biased but the 4.6 sounds better to me than the 5.0...Now the 5.0 is still a beast with enough power, bone stock, to get in trouble with and have fun driving.Do I wish I had a 5.0 coyote? Sure but I wouldn't get rid of my 4.6 to get one. A few bolt-on mods,and you can turn a 4.6 into a very respectable hot rod.So many options available today for aftermarket upgrades for it!

[@SirtubalotTX]

Having owned both a 3 valve and Coyote Mustang, It's hard for me to say ones 'better' than the other. The Coyote definitely has more potential overall and is stronger out of the box,.. but I've seen modded 3 valves making 350 n/a horsepower and 1500+ hp on boost. (Built of course) I say this subjectively but I think I even prefer the sound of the 3 valve over the Coyote. If you have a 3 valve and love the genre? you are not hurting. Love the Coyote though too so.. well... choices! I'll shut up now. :)

[@Robreese24]

+SirtubalotTX I'm glad you said you prefer the sound of the 3v more, because I honestly do too. I do not know what it is about it, but the 3v just sounds so damn nice. Not saying the Coyote sounds bad, nowhere even close to bad, but the 4.6 always gets me!
