Wanted something quick when I wanted it to go. Turbo 4 was quick without hesitating. I know V8 has faster 0-60 but turbo 4 was fast enough for me and gets better mph especially highway. Low to the ground but easier for me to get in and out than Camaro. I really wanted a corvette but felt foolish falling out of the car every time I exited because it's too low. Also you can see out the back window much better than Camaro or Corvette. Less blind spots. I drove a lot of cars and decided on mustang because of best combination of performance, comfort, looks and price for me.

Only have 1300 miles on the car and the car started to have 2 major problems. The first is when you reach speeds of 50mph or greater the car vibrates and gets worse the faster you drive. The second is the shifting makes metal pinging noise. I have been at the dealer twice so far and they still have not fixed either problem. I am bringing the car back to the dealers again and I do not have much confidence that they will get it fixed. I have looked into these 2 problems and it seems that a lot of Mustang owners have the same problems without having their car fixed. I hope Edmunds reads this and looks into these problems. If anyone reading this and has these problems, please let Edmunds know and maybe they can help us out.

I noted most reviews were for GTs. I own an Ecoboost Premium Convertible. Acceleration is so-so. Handling is incredible. Only two complaints are the windows controls are too far forward and the antenna is awkward if you have a car cover but it unscrews solving that. Radio actually works fine without it screwed back in. The rear seats cannot be used for passengers but I knew that in buying it. They do make good interior storage - something the old Z-3 I had was short of. Gas mileage is killer. I saw acceleration is "so-so" only due to my last car, a Lincoln LS with the V-8, being no slouch so the Ecoboost doesn't seem to add anything to that. Compared to something else maybe it'd be more impressive. So niggling complaints on what has proven to be an incredibly handling car with enough pop to satisfy. Comfort on long drives is much better than expected - the Z-3 lacked in that department. Review says car acquired in 2016 as page doesn't have 2017 as an option - car was new in August of 2017.

...looks great, lots of power and a lot of fun to drive. My Mustang has the performance package and is black on black with black emblems and smoked out lights. It draws much more attention than I ever thought it would. It has a lot of power. The car is geared low and driven by a high torque engine that easily breaks the wheels loose even when you are not trying. I think the vehicle would be a better ride geared just a bit higher...unless you want to drive it like a drag racer. I have wanted a muscle car for 50 years and this one is great. I would most certainly buy it again. Now I'll mention a couple of things that could be improved on. When the wheels break loose the car exhibits wheel hop. It is especially noticable if you are turning. There are some relatively inexpensive after market fixes for the problem but out of the factory you should expect wheel hop. The 6 speed shifter is not smooth. It is notchy and easy to miss select gears. There are a lot of after market shifters available for a few hundred dollars that would probably be a big improvement. I would have already put one in if I could install it myself. Since I don't have a lift I can't and I'm not comfortable giving my car to some potential mechanic hack to take it apart and put back together so for now I'm going to live with it. But all in all it is a great car for the money. If you are thinking of buying one, go for it and you won't be sorry.

This is my 1st new car. I'm 41, and didn't know anything about credit when I was young. I suffered for that for a long time. I finally got into the position to get my something I really wanted. I've had it 12 days and today I had to put it in the shop. The trans is bad. Motor has lost horsepower. Bad vibrations and metal on metal grinding noises. I took it to the dealer where they said they can't get to it till the 1st of the week. They won't give me a loaner until they diagnose the problem. I have purchased many used Ford's and have always loved them, but now I wished I would have looked at challenger. Thanks ford for making my 1st new car experience a nightmare!

Check out your car very well before purchasing. It is obvious that Ford still does not care about quality after all of these years & why I avoided them for most of my life. The car I have is twisted. The driver's side door is warped. The hood is extremely hard to open because it barely opens far enough to get small fingers underneath to get to the release. The body lines do not line up. The dealership could do nothing about this and the repairs will require a body shop. I know this is a bad car that I bought, but these things should have been caught by Ford before being released from the factory! It wasn't noticed by me until I got the car home & really went over it that evening. The dealer is doing it's best to get it fixed by getting it to the right people, but it really should go back to Ford & I should get a replacement car. Other than the body/frame issues, the car drives great, handles great, looks great, nice power @ 305 HP, decent fuel economy and the front seats are comfortable. Can't say much for the back seat. The rear seats look great, but are useless. A child couldn't even sit back there. At least the trunk is very roomy. I like the car, but it will most definitely be my last Ford.

My wife and I were wanting a second vehicle for errand running and pleasure rides. I had mustangs in the past and she really liked the styling and the suprising comfort of the premium models seating. I am a retired senior master Ford technician and can vouch for the fact that these cars are rarely in the shop for any issues. The git-up-and go factor is definitely there. Amazing performance. Super comfortable. Fuel mileage for ours is overall at 27 mpg. I would recommend the ecoboost premium model to anyone. Be prepared for a lot of "cool car" comments.

I used the Edmunds.com price to buy the car through the ford dealership fleet sales manager. It could not have been easier. The car is one month old now and it's a fun car to drive... Just put the top down and go! I got the new platinum white color which I love because it has a nice pearl finish. ** Update... two years and only 8500 miles into it, I’ve had two fairly serious mechanical issues - each keeping the car in the service department for a week at at time. Needless to say, these issues have upset me a great deal considering the low mileage, and tarnished the glow of ownership.

Sadly my 2011 Outshines my 2017

I loved my 2011 so much when my son took it off to college I bought myself a 2017. Sadly the 2017 seems like a step backwards. The gas mileage is worse, the plastic exterior parts are cheap and fragile (simple freeway stone blew a hole in the front, another piece was broke by a simple shopping cart bump), the interior has terrible design errors (i.e. the seat bracing connecting back to bottom grinds into you when you exit the car (broke the cell phone in my back pocket), the plastic and cloth features scuff at every light touch, and they glued felt on the seat belt buckle to solve a clacking noise where it banged against the center console. I would have easily given my 2011 5-stars... I struggle to give the 2017 more than 3 but it does have great engine power, looks amazing, and will hopefully be as reliable in the end as my 2011. Ford, see what you can do about actually improving the model (features/performance) from year to year.
