Forget what you know about all mustangs!

2011 Ford Mustang V6 Premium 2dr Coupe (3.7L 6cyl 6M)
1 of 1 people found this review helpful

This car is by far the best v6 mustang ever, I have owned mustangs since my first car back in 95 which ran for nearly ten years and died with 260k miles, then went to the 07 v6 which was cool but still lacked performance in a big way. The new v6 is completely different, from styling to handling to perfromance it's absolutely incredible. I've owned the car 5 months and I'm still pushing the perfromance limits trying to find an area where the mustang is lacking, to date the only negative driving experience I've encountered is having no room drinks in the cup holders (on a manual) and a little bit of nose bob at high speeds.

My 2011 California Special GT Automatic

This is a great , fast 2 seater car! Forget about the rear seats! They are not for any adult riders that I know! I drive my Stang for pleasure, there are so many after market upgrades for this particular year, I upgraded my exhaust system from the pypes exhaust with the resonators, to the flow master super 44s with mufflers to quiet him down just a tad! Now he sounds like a true muscle car from the 60s. I also replaced the air filter to a k&n never replace cartridge filter with both changes I gained an additional 12 hp on the dyno! If you keep doing simple changes on your pony like these the HP can really add up! The ride is incredibly fast the z rated Hankook tires help keep him planted to the asphalt! My car has no problem with speeds of over 120 mph at any given moment! But I have to obey the law just like everyone else. .... so the track is best for running at those speeds and it is so worth it. I put some super snake stripes on him recently to make him look fast while he is just sitting, the rear window view is not all that great, some people have complained about a vibration noise in the rear of their own stangs, it is the muffler hangers! The vibration from so much power tends to move the silicone around the hangars causing the issue but once you fix this problem with a few more pieces of silicone problem solved. Please note it took myself up to 2 weeks of regular driving to get use to the power at the wheels of this car! I have seen many new comers to the stang world get behind the wheel of the newest version of a Mustang and loose control just because they wanted to show off a bit, but had no idea how much power this automobile actually has. In my overall opinion, if you can find a 2011 California Special GT edition Mustang, buy it you will not be disappointed value for money is there and value for fun is at every turn of the key☆♡☆♡☆♡ I only drive the car approximately 800 to 1000 miles per year now Kelly blue book still has a great value on the car after 7 yrs of ownership, and only 44k low low miles, I need to sell it at this point, as I just don't drive it enough.

NOT another MCNO Muscle Car in Name Only

FINALLY! not a MCNO an reasonale price too. I waited for the 2011 after reading about them at the Edmunds site. Performance and MPG is much better than the 2010s. Only had my Candy Red coupe a couple of weeks but love it so far. Because of time some ratings a what I hope for. Runs close to my GTOs and GTX I had from 65- 71.Fun to drive on the two lane back roads and I am getting 23-25 MPG with a mix of driving. I am using 93 OCT gas, and plan to keep using it. I like the SYNC too. I also got a good price on it, as another reviewer said, you don't have to pay MSRP. I drove the Camaro and Challenger too, but think the STANG is best overall. I am looking forward to making driving fun again.

Best bang for your buck

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!

This car always puts a smile on my face

I love my Mustang GT. Just by virtue of shifting the 6 speed transmission while driving it pretty guarantees to bring you out of any funk that you may be in. It's a pleasure to drive and with over 420 horses (added a couple performance items) it is not just a nice looking vehicle, it is authentic American muscle. This is my 4th 'stang and if I never traded it in, it would be just fine.
