Used 2017 Ford Mustang Consumer Reviews
Less than expected from FORD
What a beautiful looking car but it stops there. Expect issues with rear windows not going up all the way when you put up convertible top $700. Expect issues with seat warmer relay, $500.00. Expect issues with rear brake lights $650, yes, $650 for an LED you have to replace the entire housing to get to. Very poorly engineered FORD. Lots of problems waiting to happen. Should have stuck with Camaro. You'll see many issues as the car gets to its second or third year.

Great Fun & Better Value
This is probably the best smiles-for-the-buck late-model used sports car on sale today. The V6 engine, while basic, is powerful and robust. It's also reasonably efficient and, best of all, runs on 87 octane gas! The handling is solid, the top goes up & down in a flash, and the suspension is good enough to go way too fast through the corners without eliciting even a squeak from the tires. The interior is fairly basic by 2017 standards (although it does have the essentials), but the cloth seats are supremely comfortable and supportive; so much so, in fact, that I would choose them every time over their more expensive leather counterparts. It's also a surprisingly practical car day-to-day; there's room for (small) adults in the back seats and plenty of space in the truck for groceries & small suitcases. Finally, although I wouldn't ever recommend taking this car off the tarmac due to the sports-car ground clearance, it's shockingly capable on rough roads should you find yourself on one by chance or misfortune. I once took mine down a steep gravel track in the Blue Ridge mountains and it was so solid that the lifted Tacoma behind me could barely keep up! Build quality is pretty solid throughout; some squeaks & rattles now at close to 70k on the clock, but everything still works as intended. Needed a new water pump at around 62k and the rear passenger-side quarter window sticks a bit, but otherwise it's run like a top, so I'd say reliability has been good on the whole. Perhaps not as unimpeachable as a Toyota in this respect, but still well above average, and parts are cheap & plentiful when you need them. All in all, if you want something reasonably priced that can handle both the 9-to-5 and a fun weekend getaway with aplomb, a convertible S550 Mustang is a solid choice.

Turns heads. Great car to scratch the muscle car itch for reasonable money.

I rented one for a Month!
I rented an Ecoboost in Tucson, AZ and drove it to Chicago, IL and back. I put over 4,000 miles on it. The 4 cylinder engine has a lot of Power, especially on the high end. This Car is a "Total Blast" to drive, I just wish the driver seat reclined.
