As a senior citizen I'm curious-how many other old guys are buying Mustang GTs? When I traded in my E350 (for my 19 GT) the look on the salesman's face was priceless.
I'm wondering how much of an anomaly I might be and if not, how many other "older enthusiasts" are enjoying their GTs?
I get questions constantly at the car wash (typically from Audi and Beemer owners) "Sir is that your car? How do you like it?" Translation - why the hell is an oldtimer like you driving that?
It's simple - you're never too old to enjoy a well balanced platform that brings a smile to your face each time you press that button. The active exhaust simply enhances the experience.

Just turned 61, I bought my first muscle car in August a 2021 gt convertble. I think this is one of my favorite cars that I have ever owned! We’re not getting older we are getting better!

My son and I (mine on right). He’s also a senior…at Sunlake High school! 😄

Nice S550s.

I have to ask: since you both go to the same high school, do you car pool?

63 and GT on order, with the way things are going I will get it when I am 80, first Mustang at 52, this will be my 5th and probably last one. Too many emission and gas mileage standards coming out to be able to tinker with the engine.

My son and I can’t possibly go to the same high school…I am a “senior” as in citizen…lots of confusion in here 🤣

Okay. That makes sense. Couldn't figure out any plausible numbers of held backs and skip. But considering I was my own uncle, I'm reluctant to rule out implausible circumstances.

Attended a Mustang car cruise yesterday. About 20 cars, most with couples onboard, and in our mid-40's, my wife and I were about the youngest people there. Oldest (that I know for sure) was 84.

I just put a new pair of shoes on my ride, Continental Control Contact Sport SRS. The size is 255-40R-19. These babies ride so smooth and QUIET. The factory PZero's were down to 5/32 with 13,800 on the clock. The stock tires were noisy, and the ride is harsh for tires only two years old. Still cooking in my late 70's.
