Why do people like mustangs?

[SteveK]

In response to why people buy Mustang, people buy cars for styling. Styling is the number one reason people buy cars.
The people on this forum may or may not agree with this.
Then comes the price. Then utility.
I read that in the consumer digest or something.

I bought mine because I like it. I had one before and was very dependable. I also have a Corvette. I always wanted one.
Chevy counterpart is far more expensive to fix. And Mustang is almost as much fun(with less HP).

I think the argument of spending money to make one as fast as another is irrelevant. We buy Mustangs for cheaper price and spend another $10k to make it as fast as a Porsche. But the guy in the Porsche doesn't care about that. Driving a sportscar is for the way these finely crafted machines drive. No sedan feels like it. (definite exclusivity)

Trying to beat another sportscar is just a game that we have created for ourselves... and we have fun with it. But that's not the main reason I bought a Mustang.
