    Waited 47 years for my first sports car.

    This is not a race car, nor is it a dragster. What it is is a relatively fast, nice-handling, sport-touring car. Good acceleration, good braking and gives you confidence in the twisties. The front seat is roomy and the cockpit is comfortable. My only real complaint is the OE sound system... Youd think they would put premium sound in such a nice car - I spent an additional $1000 to add a subwoofer and to upgrade the stock speakers and amplifier. The rear seat is a convenience that I like over the Miata - the only other rag-top tourer we were considering. All in all, we like the car a lot and look forward to the adventures that await!

    Its a sports car so back seat is tight also if your older getting in and out can be hard if u cant open the door all the way in tight parking places

    Love this car best Ive owned. Back seat may as well be storage area. Instead wish the rear seats would fold down like the fastback.

  • 2016 Mustang GT Premium – The Pony Car that Could! - 2016 Ford Mustang
    By -

    As an avid motorist, Ive owned many vehicles in my lifetime. From pickup trucks to sports cars, from economy cars to luxury imports. The past three vehicles Ive owned have all been Fords, as theyre nearly unbreakable and theyre every bit as good and better than many imports costing much more money. Theres the prestige that comes from owning a high-end, imported luxury automobile from the likes of Audi, BMW, Lexus, Infiniti and others, but the novelty wears off and in the end, theyre just cars that are expensive to own and maintain. Some handle, corner and drive very nicely, and the interiors of such brands as Audi are hard to beat (Ive owned several Audis, and I can attest to the interior design and quality). My most recent purchase, a 2016 Ford Mustang GT Premium with the 6 speed manual, Sync 3, Kicker Audio, California Special Package with BLIS and very comfortable heated and cooled leather seats with Miko Suede insets is one of my favorite automobile purchases ever. I considered holding out for the 2016 Chevy Camaro SS, but theyre selling at full MSRP and the interior comfort, visibility and usefulness doesnt compare to Fords Pony Car. Yes, I admit that I love the 2016 Camaro, and wouldnt hesitate to purchase one (I owned a 4th gen Z28 in the past and it was a great car). If the reported 1/2 second faster from 0 - 60 mph is your most important consideration, the Camaro SS is an awesome car. But, at nearly $8,000 more than a comparably equipped and loaded Mustang GT Premium, its almost a no-brainer. I can use half of the $8,000 I saved and install Ford Performance parts to the Stang and it will outperform the Camaro SS in every respect. The new Sync 3 audio/infotainment system is much easier to use than the previous My Ford Touch, and should alleviate any hesitation that buyers may have concerning the My Ford Touch system, though Ive had the Sony system with My Ford Touch in my previous Ford products and it was very simple to use. I could never figure out why it was difficult for some people to use, as there were redundant knobs and switches you could utilize if the voice or touch commands were too difficult to live with. It was much easier to use than an Android smartphone, and I havent heard the reviewers complain about them. As for performance, my Mustang GT is a blast to drive. You can drive it like a "commuter car" and it does a fine job, or put your right foot on the accelerator and it will more than satisfy your appetite for a thrill ride. Its also remarkably economical if you drive it with economy in mind. Im already seeing 24mpg highway in the real-world, and the time honored 5.0 engine hasnt even completed its break-in period. As for the the sound of said engine - lets just say Ford really dialed it in perfectly. Its got that unmistakable 5.0 Liter Mustang sound, which is to say it sounds incredible! A true muscle-car sound thats long been a favorite in the Pony Car world. The fit and finish are also right up there with the best of the best, though I could stand for a little less faux stitching on the padded dash components, and some of the plastic bits are like most cars in this price range, but not obtrusive. The only small gripe I have is the lack of height-adjustable seat belts. Though they suit my 511" body frame pretty well, it would be nice to have the option to adjust them for height. To sum it up, I think this may be one of those cars that I will keep for a long time. For me, a long time is typically three - four years, but I could see myself keeping this car much longer, and adding to it, as there are a gazillion accessories from Fords parts bin, as well as many quality aftermarket manufacturers. Perhaps Ill keep it and add an Explorer or even Escape to the mix. One thing Im fairly sure of, my future vehicles will be Fords, because as they say, why mess with what works?

    So i just bought my first ford ever a 2016 mustang ecoboost competition orange it has every option avaliable so it cost $2k more than the GT big deal so far getting 28mpg and thats after a few wide open runs and going 100+ a couple times and aftermarket parts wow endless supply just ordered $1500 worth parts should be right around 400hp without all the weight the GT carries only complaint is the back seat is pretty much non existent and the little 4 cylinder does use premium gas other then that happy with my purchase. If youre looking into the camaro do yourself a favor and check out the mustang interior is light years ahead sorry chevy just switched teams!

    Love my Mustang Ecoboost Convertible! Power and acceleration is probably good for most people. But I wanted a bit more power for hills I drive. I was able to make some easy modifications to improve power. Next step is upgraded turbo. Looks great, good visibility for a sports car and I find the convertible very enjoyable. Car drivers car.

  • Our new pony car named Ruby - 2016 Ford Mustang
    By -

    Our first Mustang was a 2004 GT convertible 4.0 automatic. Sassy was a fun little car, not a lot of zip but a ton of fun and we cherished her for 12 years. Then we bought our new 2016 GT convertible with the California Special package. With Ruby, it was love at first sight. If she were human, she would sound like Mae West with that throaty growl. She handles and rides like a dream and that much horsepower should be illegal. We are a retired couple yet we feel like kids when we drive this car, just for the sheer fun factor. We love her and plan on keeping her in the family for a long time.
