A Pound for Pound Bargain

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.

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.

Ford Mustang GT 5L

Real muscle car. Love the power and especially the Ford Sync (well worth the refinery and ease of navigation, Bluetooth all together). Still very plasticy and rattley - but this frankly is not why you buy the car. Just touch the gas and whoosh...love it.

The Ecoboost Premium Convertible

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.

Because of this. Discounts on new Mustangs are very hard to find.
