  Best Mustang ever - 2011 Ford Mustang
  By Tony - July 6 - 3:11 pm

  The new 5.0 is everything youve heard and more. It is as strong running as my 2003 supercharged Cobra was, while being much more comfortable, quiet and not to mention fuel efficient. Highly recommended.

  Best Pony Car Yet! - 2011 Ford Mustang
  By Wayne - June 30 - 8:05 am

  I traded in a 2005 mustang for this car. I loved that car, but this one is so much fun to drive. I wanted a 5.0 but after driving this was very satisfied with the power and feel of ride. This is the best bargain for the money and quality is spot on.

  Nice ! - 2011 Ford Mustang
  By orange - June 29 - 1:31 pm

  Was shopping the 2010 mustang, great deals, but once the 2011s were available there was no comparison. Amazing power for a v6. Interior design is one of the best I have ever seen. I have only had the car a couple of weeks, but would currently rate it as the best of the 10-12 cars I have owned in my life.

  Love this new V6 - 2011 Ford Mustang
  By KC - June 21 - 3:10 pm

  Have only put about 1,000 miles on my new Mustang convertible but its already easily the best Mustang I have owned. The power from this new V6 is outstanding and the handling and braking are top notch. I have the 6 spd Auto and it handles the engine very well. Steering is direct and well weighted, controls all feel of the highest quality. This is the first Mustang Ive driven that feels in many ways like my Hondas. In fact, with the real aluminum trim and fabulous Sync system this Mustang is more luxurious and sophisticated than most other cars in its price class. And top down, well, nothing is better. Top is thick and seals very well.

  Cant believe it is a v6! - 2011 Ford Mustang
  By koolpony - June 19 - 10:24 pm

  I have owned several mustangs in my lifetime, and this is by far the best overall feeling Mustang ride I have ever experienced. It drives much bigger than it is. I was considering a 5.0, but after driving the 3.7 it was plenty for me, especially with the 6 speed, FUN, FUN, FUN! I will do some minor mods in the future, but for now just enjoying such a fine car. Ford you finally got it right! I love my Mustang.

  What a deal! - 2011 Ford Mustang
  By Dan - June 15 - 5:43 pm

  This is the second Mustang I have owned but the first one was about 20 years ago. The car is as good as every review had written land more. I actually got stopped by the police in rural Wisconsin to check on the missing license permit which was in the front window as the car is a CV. What they really wanted to do is ask questions about the vehicle which they did.

  5.0 back just in time! - 2011 Ford Mustang
  By draekus - June 14 - 12:53 pm

  This vehicle is incredible! I had a 2005 GT convertible that I regret having to sell due to financial reasons. However, when it came time to purchase a new car in 2010, I had my heart set on a muscle car again. I had already decided on the 2010 Mustang GT (after considering the Camaro) when I heard news of the 2011 with the new 5.0 engine! The car has a great ride with exceptional styling! It roars when accelerating, but at the same time is tame when cruising along. Perfect combo! The 412 HP really kicks! And no matter what, dont let the salesmen at a dealer convince you the car isnt going for under msrp! I got mine well under msrp!

  Best bang for your buck - 2011 Ford Mustang
  By MrFriday1381 - June 6 - 2:37 pm

  I have had this car about a week, it is a manual transmission. So far I cannot stop looking at it, very pleasing to the eye. Driving it is a lot of fun, I know I know its not a V8 but it has enough power for the average person who is looking for a fun affordable car. My car has the 3.31 gears, but I think it would benefit highly with a 3.73, if you are not worried about fuel economy and want a little more oomph. Having said that I would highly recommend this car to anyone in the market for a Sports car. The fuel economy is also very surprising considering the way I have been driving it. BUY IT ! Well done Ford!

  Greatest Car In Terms of Value - 2011 Ford Mustang
  By Simon - June 3 - 11:54 pm

  This car is absolutely astonishing. Sync is awesome, the performance is great, there is nothing lacking in this car. On Motor Trend this car posts 0-60 runs of 5.1 seconds, on par with the 2010 mustang gt. Also the lateral acceleration is 0.97g, better than the current M3. This package all for under 30,000 is equivalent to the bargain of the century.

  The 5.0 is back - 2011 Ford Mustang
  By L.Sanchez - June 1 - 6:14 pm

  I ordered this car months ago, 6spd coupe, Brembo Brakes, 3.73s. It was just going to be a fun commuter car and it has not disappointed. The engine pulls very strongly, especially in the upper rev ranges yet is docile in daily driving and it was TOO quiet when I bought it. I have since changed the exhaust. The ride is firm, but not brutal but handles like its on rails. I got a basic deluxe package so the interior is no frills. Dont even have a pwr driver seat. The benefit to not having the "goodies" is a light weight. At a truck weigh station it weighed 3480 lb with a quarter tank of gas. The new steering system feels great too.
