Basic Information and History

With the 2005 model year, the Ford Mustang launched its fifth generation, internally known as S197, taking a major step back towards the design language of the late sixties. The retro styling with round headlights set in a wide grille, the shark nose, and the triangular taillights was combined with an entirely new platform, and in GT trim the 4.6-litre modular V8 with three valves per cylinder sits under the bonnet. The fact that the car is also a genuine Roush makes it of particular interest to anyone who has followed Jack Roush and his close relationship with the Mustang over the years, where the Roush programmes offered everything from body kits and suspension upgrades to complete engine packages.

This example is imported from the USA and has therefore not been sold new in Sweden. The odometer reading shown is 134,000 km. The vehicle is stated to be in original condition and is described by the seller as a genuine Roush.

Equipment and Options

• Genuine Roush specification
• 4.6-litre V8 in GT specification
• Functioning climate control
• Functioning audio and media system

In addition to the Roush specification, the seller highlights a newly fitted convertible top. Otherwise the car is stated to be in original condition, with no further modifications described.

Condition

The exterior is described as good, with the paintwork, body and windows all stated by the seller to be in good condition. It is noted that the car was imported to Sweden with front-left collision damage and has reportedly been repaired and restored by the previous owner who imported the car.

The interior is reported to be in good condition, as is the instrument panel, while the headliner is described as being in excellent condition. The seatbelts function correctly and the instrument panel is stated to be free of warning lights.

The tyres and wheels are assessed by the seller to be in good condition.

The engine, gearbox and brakes are all described as being in good condition. The engine reportedly starts and runs without fault, the clutch works, and the gearbox shifts without issue. All electronics are stated to function, including the trip meter. The car is drivable as it stands and has passed inspection, with the most recent inspection dated June 2026.

Service History

The seller states that the vehicle has been fully serviced. However, there are no receipts or other documentation to support the service history, so it should be regarded as a verbal statement from the seller. Prospective bidders are recommended to form their own assessment of the car's maintenance before bidding.
