Introduce yourself!!

Welcome Al. You have come to the right place for ideas . Nice ride I agree the S550 is one great Mustang

Like the news

My first car was a brand new 1988 Ford Escort (old fart). Look that one up, what a piece of crap, anyway it was quickly wrapped around a tree, and based upon my short experience with the car I swore I would never buy a Ford car again. Here I am now 30 years later, and very much interested in the 2018 Mustang GT. Pretty much looks like this is the car I will buy, so have to introduce myself to new folks. Currently a White 2011 Convertible Corvette with 10K miles, and a White 2010 Audi S5 with 80K. The Audi will be the trade for the White 2018 Mustang GT with all options. Don't want the racing seats. So that's it, the excellent Audi with 350 HP for the the Stang with another 100HP. There are so many things going for this Mustang that just makes me want it. The magnetic shocks, something I have on my Corvette, and they are friggin awesome, so glad that they are available. The virtual cockpit thang, and was really wanting and was looking at an Audi RS3, but with the sheet this Audi, is $15,000 more easily, but probably 20K more. And for folks who follow things, the 2018 RS3 is a 2.5l turbo motor with 400HP, that is less HP and TQ than the Mustang. And they probably weigh about the same.

Hello all! Thanks for having me on the site. I just bought myself a used but flawless '15 GT Premium last month. I've owned Fox Mustangs over the years, one of which for nearly 29 years now. But anyway, this is by far the finest Mustang I've ever owned. Really Love it! Let the modding begin! LOL

Hi! I joined for 2 reasons:

1) I've been lurking for a while now doing research on new Mustangs and this looks like the place to get some great insights and information.

2) Looking for the latest version of SYNC 3 for my 2016 F-150.

Thanks to all for sharing your experiences!

Hey all. I recently picked up a base auto 17 GT for a steal. Have not been in a Mustang in 8 years. The improvement the platform has made since my 03 Cobra is impressive. Definitely going FI since my Cobra had a 2.8 KB and I previously owned a single turbo Supra. A high 8 second full weight street car is my long term goal. Tons of good information and meticulous build threads on here, I love it. :cheers:

Hello, M6G world.

I’m James (@ximportdriver). You may recognize me by the same name from the former West Coast Fords and current StangNet.

My current ride is 2017 GT PP Lightning Blue. Previous rides were a 2013 GT (Mustang Customizer Winner #1), 1999 Saleen S281sc, and a 1994 SVT Cobra.

Now that I’m in a S550, I thought I’d join this forum.

Cheers!

Hi, I'm "local driver". I joined this site because I'm looking for information about new Mustangs.

I'm going to be selling or trading my 2010 Camaro SS within the next year or so, and I'm seriously considering a Mustang GT as a replacement.

My main reasons for considering a Mustang, so far, are:

Smaller, lighter car
A10 transmission
No cylinder de-activation
All season tire option for V8
Spare tire option for V8

My main concerns are:

Ford dealers in my area not the best
Stories about AC failure

Although I do occasionally take my Camaro to the drag strip, my favorite application for a muscle car is long road trips. And I do have a 4WD winter car.

Looking forward to perusing the forum and getting to know the people and the cars!

Welcome! Just buy an extended warranty if you're going to keep the Mustang for more than 36/36 and you won't have to worry about the AC.

Welcome> I've owned a number of Mustangs including Fox and new edge Cobra. My s550 is by far the most sophisticated and powerful of the bunch. Moreover, it out handles and has better ride quality than my Cobra with IRS. However, it is bigger and heavier than the previous models I've owned. Nonetheless, it is deceptive when actually throwing it around. I've done autocross and open track with my 16 GT PP and it is so much easier to drive than the others despite heft and dimensions.

With that said, even the 2018 GT PP2 will be hard pressed to match an L1E. Would be interesting to see the match, but the prior history does not favor the Mustang GT. Would I buy the Camaro? Nope. The S550, even with its actual or theoretical performance deficiencies (when compared to the bowtie) that I will give up those in favor of the S550.
