  V6, 305 HP - 2011 Ford Mustang
  By egoodman - May 27 - 10:03 pm

  My wife and I own our 2011 stang since October 2010. Kono Blue! Wow! What a sweet ride. Ford did a great job and the 305 hp makes the car right there with last years GT model. I have kept right with 2010 GTs with my little V6. One thing I would recommend to all stang owners. Put a Flowmaster exhaust on it. Wow, it makes the car sound so bad ass. It gives the car a sweet growl, sounds louder than the standard V-8 model. I have had my flowmaster on for the past few months and makes the car sound aggressive but not obnoxious. The 2011 Stang is way nicer than the camaro, more comfortable and the interior is classy not plastic that looks cheap like in the camaro. Live a little and get one.

  Wow - 2011 Ford Mustang
  By tbutton - May 26 - 8:05 pm

  My wife drives a 3 series and Ive been jealous confined to a 3/4 ton pickup for several years. Ive looked at a zillion cars including Minis, Audi S4, 1 Series, Mazdaspeed3, GTI, etc. So glad I settled on this. It is beautiful on the outside and drives as neatly buttoned down as the 3 series. But boy does it get up and go better than just about anything. And what a sweet noise it makes when you hit about 4000 rpm. The Brembo package not only brings her to a stop quickly but gives it a great feel on the road with no body roll at all. And as a tall guy, the room in the front seats is appreciated far more than the 3 series cockpit. Forget the back seats. lol

  Tweaked GTconvertible - 2011 Ford Mustang
  By mustangalan - April 27 - 11:58 pm

  I recently bought the GT convertible after looking at the Camaro and Challenger. Immediately loved it but decided to add some stealth performance so had the Ford Racing supercharger instaaled along with Magnaflow exhaust to give a little more rumble. Now 600+ horsepower and fast not the word for it. Now a Corvette killer. The Camaro and Challenger dont even come close!

  mustang surprise - 2011 Ford Mustang
  By zimboy - April 16 - 8:16 pm

  I have been in the US for 8 years having preferred European sports cars. I thought the Mustang might lack the handling, fun and feel i have been used to. I bought a race red with american mustang club package which looks striking especially with the silver grey alloys. It is a pleasure to drive and skidpad performance was best i have ever had. Its a car that can cruise in style and be thrown around with confidence. And with great pricing it is very hard to beat.

  2011 Mustang GT is Best Ford has built - 2011 Ford Mustang
  By mustangman308 - February 8 - 4:10 am

  I just bought my 2011 Mustang GT Premium (5.0 6M) - with Brembo Package & 3.55 gears and its by far the best stock Mustang GT ever built. The new 5.0 engine does not stop pulling and the 6 M transmission is smooth and the Brembo brakes & suspension make the car handle like its on rails. TEST DRIVE ONE and you will buy it *** its that good.

  Fun to Drive - 2011 Ford Mustang
  By discopsk - January 18 - 5:18 pm

  Traded in my 98 V6 for this Race red V6 Premium with Auto, Pony and Comfort packages. First impression was there is NO STORAGE. No place to put sunglasses, loose change, etc. I love the MyColor. The ride is comfortable and quiet, and the transmission is very smooth. Second tank of gas I got 29 mpg in mixed driving. 1 mpg better than my 98 with double the horsepower and an auto instead of manual tranny. Great job Ford! The Shaker radio sounds great. And I love the retro style which is very reminiscent of my 65 pony. Reliability remains to be seen, but if this car is as good as my 98, Im a happy camper.

  2011 V6 Mustang-Hesitation - 2011 Ford Mustang
  By richardzuccaro - January 14 - 2:20 pm

  Overall my 2011 V6 Mustang with automatic transmission is a really fine car EXCEPT for the 1-2 second hesitation when trying to accelerate suddenly for passing or entering a highway. The dealer claims its probably only a half-second delay but I confirmed again its close to 2 seconds. At age 61 I am not drag racing. This hesitation has been quite dangerous several times( praise the Lord for his protection)before accelerating like my first new muscle car, a 1969 GTO. I was a part-time auto mechanic in 69-70 and will research the possible cause since the Ford dealer has failed me.

  The Pony Express - 2011 Ford Mustang
  By Eric Goodman - November 27 - 2:00 am

  My wife and I have now had our first Ford Mustang for approximately 1 1/2 months with just over 1900 miles. The car is the bomb. Kona Metallic Blue, auto and the car has plenty of power. No need to spend the extra $ 7,500 dollars on the 5.0. The V-6, 305 is plenty fast for the non dragster. Heck, the 2010 GT had 315 HP, 10 less HP and that was the cats meow last year. The duel exhaust sounds great and has a nice growl to it. Handles great and very comfortable on long trips. I get 30 mpg on highway with cruise control set for 70 mph and thats using regular fuel. Overall, Bang for Buck, the best pony car on the market to date. Ford did its homework and look out camaro.

  Best of the current American muscle cars - 2011 Ford Mustang
  By James B. - November 14 - 2:00 am

  If you want the best all around muscle car in the U.S., the new Mustang GT is what you want. Its got the best performance for the dollar. Capable of the best MPG, the most innovative engineering, has the best visibility, the best interior & weighs the least. The 5.0-liter engine bellows tones worthy of a THX-certified soundtrack. The base brakes are good, but the Brembos are way better & offer serious stopping power needed to reign in the 412-horses. Its also a bargain for what you get especially if youre considering any of the 19" wheels. The 6-speed tranny offers short, positive shifts and a buttery smooth feel. Its great for weekend warrior duties or daily driving.

  Very fast for a V6 - 2011 Ford Mustang
  By Ralph - November 11 - 2:00 am

  Great car to drive. The SYNC is my favorite option that comes with the Premium Package. I bought a Race Red coupe with pony pack and 3:31 rear end. The rear end may be too much for this car as I get kickback when I come to a light. Its kind of like a thrust from the rear end. I had Ford check it out but Im bringing it back for another look. The SYNC USB port is awesome as I have hundreds of CDs and I downloaded them from Windows Media Player. Its really cool that you can dictate what you want to hear. The hands off phone is another great quality of the SYNC.
