Hello all my name is Jay and I'm a life long fan of cars but the Mustang has always held a special place in my heart. Put a deposit down on a 17' GT today that Ill be picking up next week. This will be my second Mustang after a long time without one. Looking forward to posting on here and learning lots. My last Mustang was a S197 GT. Threw in a picture link of the old girl! :)

2017 GTPP
Hello Everyone,

My name is Jeremy and from Columbus Indiana. I blame my buddy for my impulse car transaction. I finally drove his '15 GT and was hooked. The new refinements and the coyote power delivery is very nice.

I ended up thinning the heard out some to make garage space for the new addition. I was lucky enough to find one guy that would buy and take care of my '93 Teal Cobra and '93 Lightning... The Cobra was a hard sell though, ugh. I still have an '01 Lightning that I am continually fixing. Bought is as a repo that sat for 2 yrs... So far I built a forged engine for it and now finding everything else that needs replaced as its finally mobile...:frusty:

But! I ended up finding a new '17 GT Premium w/PP in Magnetic Grey. So far the 100 miles I've put on it has be enjoyable. Lets see how long it takes for me to do some major mods... :headbonk:

I had an Evo VIII and sold it after about a year because I couldn't stand the torque steer and I couldn't stand the lag between pressing the accelerator, waiting for the turbo to spin up, and then finally start to get going. I won't have my 2018 GT for a few months, and it will be my first modern (muscle, sports, performance, whatever you want to call it) American rear-wheel, non-turbo vehicle.

How has your transition felt?

If you get the 10 speed transmission you won't have to worry about getting off the line fast...even with the manual transmission there is a bump in HP and Torque..

2017 GT Premium Performance Pack
Matt - Insta @lol_mpgs

Hey guys! My name is Matt, and I purchased a 2017 GT Premium Performance Pack in Oxford White 30 days ago. My Mustang6G build thread can be found here and my instagram here!

I owned a 350z Nismo full bolt on and tune before this, and was tired of the interior, the cost to make power, and the thought of having a 10 year old "1 of 1613" losing value with every mile I put on.

The S50 was actually the last car I thought I'd buy! I drove everything. Challenger SRT, Charger Scat Pack, even the Chevy SS Sedan! (Among others) ... Almost as a joke I said "Well I've drove everything else, may as well check out the Mustang!" The local dealership had the exact package I was interested in, an Oxford White Premium Performance Pack with less than 100 test driving miles.

I'll be honest, I'm the "Most Anti-Mustang Mustang Guy," only liking the old classics and the new S550, and nothing in between. During the test drive, I could tell it handled NOTHING like the Nismo, but that was expected. What was important was the power it was putting down stock with IRS, as it had potential with a little bit of work. Spending almost a full day at the dealership I got the deal I wanted and drove it home.

Since then, I can't leave it alone. I've been doing smaller mods while I set up a game plan for the bigger ones, and am super excited to own it!

I take part in the Express Rally events (similar to the old gumball rallies) and am stoked to have a comfortable ride with a little more horsepower than I previously had. Now to just mod that suspension to my liking for the corners, straight lines are boring ;)

New S550 owner since Tuesday. From western Chicago 'burbs, this is my 3rd Mustang ('08 GT, '14 supercharged GT). Loving this car so far. In the 5 days I've had her installed 15% tint, GT350 track pack spoiler, and blacked out GT/5.0 badges. That's going to be it for a while because very soon the summer rubber will have to come off in prep for winter :*(

2017 Mustang GT PP (Base/Oxford White)
I finally bought my dream car this past Saturday, 2017 base GT Performance Package in Oxford White.

My journey to owning this car started circa 1997:

-My first experience in a Mustang was in an early 90's yellow Foxbody 5.0. My Dad took me on a drive in it (it was owned by a friend of his) and this was my first experience in a fast car. I was blown away by the power, I had never felt anything like that.

-My next experience was a PlayStation 1 demo disc with Gran Turismo 2 on it. The car it started you with was a '99 Mustang GT in white. I loved the New Edge design and this just planted another Mustang seed in my head.

-When I was in high school and finally driving, I was drooling over the brand new 2003 Mustang Cobra. This car looked absolutely badass, and if 17 year old me could have gotten one with my minimum wage job ($6.75/hr) and zero credit, I would have.

-13 years later, I finally bought my first brand new car, a 2017 Subaru WRX. This was a huge mistake. That car was crap to daily drive, and the AWD was completely worthless for me (SoCal). I daily drove that jerky, janky, POS for 14 long months.

-On 8/26/17 I traded in the WRX for a 2017 base GT Performance Package in Oxford White. This is my first Mustang, and is a dream come true for me. Mustang seeds have been planted in my head since I was a kid, and finally owning one is everything I've wanted and more. I'm loving the car and it's a joy to drive.
