I must say that after owning the car for 3 years I still get a lot of compliments from other drivers and pedestrians. I really enjoy driving my mustang which is very low corners like a dream. The car has a real kick as I leave the red lights and all I see are cars behind me. I take the top down every chance I get even in winter. The car looks like a car should look and not like these boxy looking things running around the road. In close traffic I would rather drive my Expedition because of its size and height off the ground but }overall it’s still my favorite to drive!

Best Mustang Ever

2017 Ford Mustang GT Premium 2dr Coupe (5.0L 8cyl 6M)

I just received my 2017 Mustang GT Premium that was ordered back in March. I ordered it with the performance package, premium leather and the 6 speed manual transmission. This is my first Mustang that I have ordered and I do have to say the wait was longer then I expected. When the car finally came in, the dealer was excellent in getting it ready for me to pick up. The interior is very nice and well thought out - the only down side is there is not a whole lot of room in the back seats. That is about the only negative I can say about the interior. I ordered the premium leather with the red accents and they are very comfortable and look GREAT! The 5.0 Coyote is one strong motor. It has all the power and go that you will need. Very strong and very quick. When you step on it, it wakes up and you will be through the gears before you know it. Very impressed. All I can say, Ford did a wonderful job on this car. This is a true American Muscle Car. It is built from the ground up to be a Mustang and no other chassis in the Ford line up shares any parts of it. Great Muscle Car!!

My overall rating would have been higher had the V8 engine been available with a shutdown feature at highway speeds to increase overall mileage. The Corvette has it. I bought the car 9/7 and put 10K miles on it by 3/1. It came with the 265/35/20 tires and they really hold the road. Replacements will be in the close to $300 each range but they have a 500 wear rating and roll out smooth. The pre-settings on the driver power seat allows for easy exit and entrance. The interior is well done and high quality. The car is surprisingly quiet with top up or down. I bought the Mustang because I need as much trunk space as possible for my trips and unlike the hardtop convertibles, the Mustang top folds onto itself with no intrusion into an almost full size trunk. The top goes up and down quietly and fast. I downgraded the Navigation system because there is no way to alphabetize your Favorites or eliminate previous destinations individually. There is a myriad of options in the gauges and lighting features. The engine data that is displayed is far beyond the average driver. The car is a bargain in today's market. Options included automatic with paddle shifters, Nav system, tire pkg, upgraded interior, 120,000 mile warranty.

I test drove the Chevy Camaro, Dodge Challenger, and Nissan 370Z. All the listed had advantages and disadvantages. Also read several magazine articles/reviews, which favored the Mustang as a daily driver, and then took the Mustang for a few more test drives and for me the Ford Mustang 5.0 GT Premium, black on black with blacked out emblems and automatic transmission won hands down. All around a more driver friendly car, but definitely still plenty of muscle for the road to include back roads. Felt more comfortable for the longer drives, and the fit and finish to include a nicely appointed interior definitely sold me to the Ford. I don't consider myself a Ford guy, but after driving the Mustang I decided I had to own one. To date I've driven it to the NYC area, and it was very comfortable for three hours each way, and very soon to Daytona to attend the Rolex 24. I've only owned it since late December 2016 so there are a number of areas on this survey I can't yet speak to...but I'm definitely hoping they are just as strong in the positive as my experience so far. UPDATE: Sold the 2017 and purchased a 2018 Ford Mustang loaded with all the new bells & whistles. New 2018 GT Premium, also in Black, 10 speed transmission, active exhaust, magnadrive suspension, full digital instrumentation, performance package, etc. 1200 miles since purchase. UPDATE: Still very happy with the 2018 Mustang overall, but hugely disappointed on how overly difficult it is to get money back regarding the extended warranty. Bought the 18 model last November 2017, and have had to get the the Ford Warranty division via snail mail. They provided no other contact method other than snail mail. If I had it to do over again I would not have ever purchased the extended warranty. My advice at this point unless you really know that you will keep the car for as long as the purchased warranty, DON'T do it. At this point I'd give them a bunch of choice words. The person who I've had some email contact with recently won't provide any updates to me. I've provided all the necessary documents, and now nothing. You mean to tell me this information wasn't in the system? This is definitely poor, poor, business practices, and likely the second and last Ford I'll ever buy. Enjoying the car, but at this point hating the company. They will take all your money in a heart beat, and then make it time consuming, and nearly impossible to hold them accountable. Ford, your business practices suck! You've lost another customer. We are done! Well, the car is now in Germany, and need to do the 30,000 maintenance interval. No problems no issues. The car has made some serious drives now in Romania, Germany, and Italy. So, all-in-all doing just fine. The 2018 is sold... no problems great car thought I might purchase the newest edition but not in the cards for the time being. Cheers, out! Ok, so they sent this link asking for another update. I still don't have a Mustang at this time. I bought a last call small block, standard shift (6 speed) Dodge CHallenger R/T Blacktop. Fun car I do enjoy it but I still miss the Mustang. Cheers!

Where to start? Ordered 2017 Ecoboost Mustang convertible. Estimated to be received August 2017 received, received sept 2017. Not a big deal. I absolutely love the look of this car! Unfortunately I haven't even had a chance to look at it that much because it's been in the shop! I have now had to take it back to Liberty Ford in Brunswick Ohio 5 times! This car has less than 9,500 miles on it so yes I take extremely good care of it! It has been in the shop more than 2 months out of the 2 years I have owned it for various problems with stereo and vents. One thing gets fixed and the other breaks. My car has had a new wiring harness replaced, 3 vent HVAC systems replaced, 1 stereo, converter, etc,, etc, etc. the entire front of this car has been torn down 4 times! This was a BRAND new car obviously it's a lemon! Liberty Ford has contacted the engineer on multiple occasions who seems to just say replace this part and that part and see if it works. There is an obvious defect! Each time it has been in the shop I have had a rental - a Ford Escape. While it was ok the first couple times, I bought a Mustang convertible not an SUV.
