This Year's Model Updates:

Following up on interior and exterior revisions last year, the 2011 Ford Mustang receives all-new engines this year, including a 305-horsepower V6 and a 412-hp V8. They're backed up to new six-speed manual and automatic transmissions. Other changes include a switch to electric power steering (from hydraulic), larger brakes, revised suspension tuning, added noise insulation, additional body bracing for the GT convertible, blind-spot mirrors and Ford's MyKey system.

Pros:
  • Powerful V6 and V8 engines, available Ford Sync system, good performance bang for the buck.
Cons:
  • Near ubiquitous street presence, no telescoping steering wheel.

  • Kona Blue Convertable - 2011 Ford Mustang
    By -

    My wife & I rented a 2010 Mustang convertible to drive from Kentucky to the NASCAR race at Watkins Glen in early August. That rental proved a stronger sales tool than any dealership could ever provide. When reading the features of the 2011 model, we decided they far outweighed any price savings obtainable from a 2010 year end deal. We love the styling, peppy V-6 305 hp with smooth sounding dual stainless steel exhausts. The sync system takes a little adopting to. My short drives to/from work a a real joy whenever the top is down. Evening drives with the top down are exhilarating!

    When I drive it I get 29 mpg. Wife only gets 24-25-mpg. If you are 62" with long legs there is not enough room for you. Other than that its fine.

    I am absolutely in love with my Stang. I got the v6 Premium and the upgrades are definitely worth it. Kona blue with white racing stripes is so sharp. Handles corners with ease, sounds great, the comfort is there. My friends fight over who gets to sit in the back. Definitely looking forward to modifying it.

    This is my second mustang and second V-6. No comparison. The 2011 has V-8 like performance and is economical. This is the base model with no option other than dealer added window tint for the Arizona summer.

    I have owned numerous Mustangs and various other makes over the years. This Mustang is one of the best ever. It has performed over expectations. A really great car.

  • Sizzling and Sexy (BUT not perfect) - 2011 Ford Mustang
    By -

    The upgrade in (V6) HP is awe- inspiring, but realize the torque is not that of the 2009 V8. Cant believe how nimble this car is. Looks like a muscle car, but drives like a European sports car. Just traded a 2007 Saab 9.3 Areo and notice NO drop off in performance. Camaro performance not up to par here. Interior feels solid & looks GREAT, but I have an issue with the design. Cant imagine why power cords should hang down in front of the dash console, or why I have to rest my arm on my pop bottle, or why I have to spend time pinching power cords through a tiny hole in the console. Be cautious of the 19-31 mpg. My mixed average is 20 mpg. Not perfect, but so sexy and fun to drive.

  • Good American car - 2011 Ford Mustang
    By -

    After buying Japanese cars for years I wanted to buy a American car. Chose Ford over Cadillac as their coupe was not yet available. Mustang is a good car but had to take it to the dealer twice in two weeks after purchase as the battery died once and the Navigation is not working properly. Still a proud American car owner.

  • Excellent - 2011 Ford Mustang

    Just a top choice in all aspects. Performance is amazing. Typical of a car costing thousands more

  • V6 is a Blast to Drive. - 2011 Ford Mustang
    By -

    Automobile magazine writers have had good reviews on this car, and that encouraged me to check out the V6 305 HP engine. (3.7 liter) My last V6 Mustang (1974 Mach 1) had a 2.8 liter Cologne engine. Absolutely no comparison possible. The old car could get 25 MPG This car can get up and boogie, and still give me 28.8 MPG on the freeway at 77 MPH. It has good handling characteristics, good looks, and good build quality. My wife really liked the A/C and the ride. Our one gripe is a small trunk. Dont plan on bringing a lot of luggage if you take a 1000 mile trip, unless you want to use the back seat for the extra suitcase. We are very happy with the car.
