Hi guys, I am relatively "new" to the mustang and this will be my first one, but as far as cars I have been wrenching on cars for a good 10 years or so I am familiar with working on cars but I am going to be bringing home a new to me stang, that is labeled as a "40th Anniversary premium edition" with a V6 standard transmission, it has AM/FM CD player and a gauge cluster that looks to have been the optional one so my question is this

Did the dealer mislabel the car, or if it is a Premium edition, what makes it one?? what should I look for or expect in it?

I will be bringing home the car as I do like the car and decided its a good one with only 73K on it so ive made the decision but would like to understand more about what options should it have


Thanks for the assistance and allowing me the opportunity to learn a lot about the mustangs!

here is the link to the dealer listing of the vehicle

Premium has to do with the interior. Yours seems to be the deluxe edition, bsased on cloth seats, base wheels and no spoiler.

ok thats what I thought, I was certain the dealer had it mislabled (though I can always find the premium parts needed) so meh, I still like the stang and im excited to go get it (1700 [5:00PM] can't arrive fast enough!!!

Looks clean. I like the looks of it without the spoiler. Congrats.

Very nice!! You may find you prefer the cloth seats over leather, wheels are usually the first thing replaces anyway and you could probably trade that decklid for one with a spoiler plus money.

thanks, I kinda would like to swap the leather in instead as all cars I drive (except my truck) have all had leather seats but meh, I may find this is just as comfy

All 2004 mustangs had badges that said 40th anniversary on the fender regardless of model or packages, but there was a 40th anniversary package as well, this included specific paint colors, leather interior, stripes, 40th anniversary on the gauges as well as an emblem beside the charge port in front of the shifter, and special colored rims. Not really anything special about that, but most dealers see the fender badge and label all 2004 mustangs 40th anniversary editions, which they are not.

That being said thats great mileage and i do love that color and the look of a coupe without the spoiler, tried it with my vert and it just didnt feel right.

well even if its not, I can always fix that my self, I love the car and think (and feel) its a blast to drive!
