43k-Mile 2009 Ford Mustang Convertible GT/CS

Description

The S197 Mustang GT reached its stride in the mid-to-late 2000s as a genuinely competent performance car rather than simply a styling exercise — the 4.6L V8 produced 300 horsepower and the platform's rear-wheel-drive architecture gave it driving character appropriate to the nameplate.

The California Special package, reviving a designation that traced back to a 1968 limited-edition model, added specific exterior and interior content that distinguished it from the standard GT while keeping the performance specification intact. For 2009, 938 California Special convertibles were built, of which only 243 were finished in Performance White.

This GT/CS is finished in Performance White Clearcoat and is equipped with the California Special package, GT Appearance Package and optional hood scoop. Acquired by the seller in 2022, this example was originally sold through Country Ford Lincoln Mercury in Huntington, New York, and now shows approximately 42,800 miles.

The car's 4.6L V8 is paired with a 5-speed automatic transmission, and its 18-inch polished aluminum wheels wear BFGoodrich G-Force tires. Inside, the car features leather upholstery, a power-adjustable driver seat, and the Shaker 500 audio system.

This 2009 Ford Mustang GT/CS California Special Convertible is now offered with manufacturer’s literature, a window sticker, multiple keys, a CARFAX Vehicle History Report, and a clean New York title in the seller’s name.
