Love my 2017 Stang GT!

My GT has the performance package. It's really an amazing car when considering it's price. For what I paid I got an IRS, big engine that I can put a supercharger on and crank it up to 800hp at the wheels (when the warranty runs out), excellent looks all around, and a car that has over 50 years of history/experience behind it! Comparing it's specs to any other car in the same price range consistently showed it to be the far superior choice which is ultimately why I chose it. Only complaint I have are the summer only Pirelli's Ford went with for the performance package. Pure garbage! They don't offer any superior performance even on hot dry pavement over Pilots and other popular replacements. Plus they wear out VERY quickly! But they are easy enough to replace.

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.

Mustang Ecoboost

This is the first vehicle that I personally owned, I wanted something strong, yet fuel efficient. This Ecoboost is a dream. Pick up is amazing, smooth changing of the gears. I was worried due to the fact that I had back issues, but once getting in and out was not an issue, and it was comfortable. I bought the vehicle for me to drive just myself and maybe friend around, so the back seat (or lack of) does not concern me to much. My only true nit pick is the lack of an Auxiliary port. A lot of these new vehicles want strictly Blue Tooth for hands off, but i prefer to have more of an option for it.

2017 DON,T BUY

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.

Overall it is a wonderfully complete sports car...

...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.
