Hello everyone!

My name's Alex, from sunny florida. Placed money down on a new 2016 Ruby Red EcoBoost this morning. Looking forward to showing this beauty off, and getting to know more about my first Mustang.

Hello everyone,

I'm Michael, from Vegas. I am eagerly awaiting delivery of my 2016 Mustang GT Premium PP. Prior to this, I owned a 2011 GT/CS and still own a 1969 Coupe that is an ever and ongoing work in progress.

I will be running the 2016 as an F-Street autocross and occasional track day car. This looks like a great forum with a lot of good information and it is nice to find a bunch of likeminded people.

Hello Mustang6g, long time lurker here. I've been reading thread after thread to learn as much as I can about the new platform and all the aftermarket goodies that go with it. I have a good idea of what works and what doesn't work thanks to all the members and vendors here. I am not new to mustangs and modding. My 2 previous rides were a black 2013 GTPP (AED tuned, ARH, SW cat-back, Steeda CAI, Koni, Steeda, and BMR suspension goodies). That thing was a blast to drive and I still miss that car but I sold it so that I could make room for a 2013 GHIG Boss (Ford racing Boss springs, Trans cooler scoop, brake cooling ducts, BMR control arms and PHB, trackey) and yep, I miss that car even more. Sold it to make room for a new S550 which I haven't gotten yet. This time around, I am going save enough cash to do all the mods I have planned before I buy the car. Hard to save when I have a huge car payment, so no car yet. It will come though! Still undecided which way to go. Either save $25k to throw down on a GT350, if I can find one without getting ripped off with the BS ADMs, or put $10k down on a Ingot Silver A6 GT prem. and use the remainder of the savings for mods. Anyway, you have a great forum here and I would like to thank everyone here for all the things I've learned so far. :cheers:

Hi all. Just got a 2016 Premium with PP and 401a. Have yet to pick it up. Having some goodies added. Waiting on parts and paint.

Sold a cherry '69 Mach 1 back in 1987. Making $10/hr back then couldn't find a way to afford the cost of my first child coming. 19 years later, I recently made the mistake of taking a showroom car for a test drive. The handling has come a LONG way since the '69 model. After 69, I've not been much of a fan of the Mustang until the retro look came in 2005. By the time I could afford to get back my Mustang, the Gen-6 was out and is absolutely the best looking Mustang since the 60's IMHO. To each is own, so don't take offense. The 6G is definitely a pleasure to drive. The PP really does make a difference. I felt the road so much better and cornering, acceleration and stopping was notably better.

I've been trading time between a 1985 f-150 and a Harley Davidson, as weather dictates. Now with a 3rd option, I see the truck and bike sitting a while. Maybe by spring, I'll be through the new driver stage.

Look forward to reading through this forum and everyone's experiences and opinions on all things Mustang!

- Mike

A quick introduction, looks like Carolina is the place for new 6G owners! (Hello Mike/Trail.Blazr) This will be my second Mustang, bought a 94 GT Vert last summer, LOVED it and between it and the Wrangler, the Harley did not get much love on sunny days. So, Harley is sold, 94 GT is for sale (and the boat and...) working through the paperwork now on 2015 GT Premium Vert in Ruby Red!

Wife and I test drove a fastback / coupe last weekend to make sure that I really needed the 5.0 and yeppers that is the way to go baby GO! Will be hanging out here.

Hello Everyone

Hello, My Name is Curtis. I am from the Bay Area, CA. Just became the owner of a brand new 2015 mustang ecoboost back in december. So far I love the car. I have owned many cars in the past. 1. 94 Acura Integra, 2. 85 Pontiac Fiero GT, 3. 02 Ford Explorer, 4. 01 Land Rover Range Rover. This is the first brand new car I have ever bought. I look forward to owning this car a for a long time.

Hi Everyone. My name is Pat, and I live in the western suburbs of Chicago. My wife and I bought a 2015 GT Premium as a gift to ourselves a few days after Christmas. This is our first Mustang. We drove the Challenger too, a nice R/T with a Shaker hood, but a long test drive in this Mustang - a car we immediately nicknamed the Blue Beast - sealed the deal. We are looking forward to doing a few things to the car to make it our own, and we wanted to join a Mustang club to meet some fellow enthusiasts and join a few driving events. Looking forward to the experience!!

Thanks! I like to check all the boxes so the 2016 Challenger R/T Shaker Plus was coming out at about $48k with all the options and they offered me about $5k off on an order. Used I saw several low mileage 2015's online with similar equipment listed at $38k, but they were both over 300 miles away.

Hi, a little about me. 72, retired Regular Army Lieutenant Colonel, Vietnam Vet. I am an avid long distance runner. Have logged 83,8xx miles since 4/76. That is more miles than my last 4 cars('13 Fiat Abarth,'11 JCW MINI,'09 BMW135,'05MINI S). All my cars have been manuals and bought new.
Owned a '91 5.0 Mustang(modded), have had GTI, Vette, Z28, some old VW bugs and 2 MG's. Oh yeah first car was a'65 Chevelle Malibu, when they were real cars.
Just bought a '16 ECB Premium Competition Orange,PP,Nav,manual. I love it.
Had it just a week. Tinted, muffler delete. Actually, coming from my little Fiat Abarth, which had straight pipes from the factory and sounded like a Ducati motorcycle to the whisper quiet ECB. Mufflers had to go. Some nice 4" Magna Flow tips. Now at least it doesn't sound anemic. Got some Coco mats ordered(black with orange little dots), Diode Dynamics 510 lumen back up light, K and N filter, and from Anchor Room an orange GO button! Not bad for an old fart.
I have learned a lot on the forum and will be asking questions as I go. Thanks for letting me share. Nick

Yep, it's a good looking shaker set-up Dodge did on the Challenger but that's really getting up there in price. Ford did a good job finding that market niche with the S550 Mustangs.
Heck a base GT can be had for under 30K making it very appealing to the younger buyers on a budget. Like you l purchased the premium because l like the creature comforts now that l'm older.

Hello Everyone!

Hello everyone, my name is Kelby. I'm from a small town in Kentucky and bought my first Mustang back last February. 2015 Race Red GT in manual and I have to say I absolutely love the car. I have always enjoyed going fast and the first time I saw the new S550 5.0 on the lot I knew I had to have one. Struggling getting pictures to upload, only one is edited quite a bit, will try to get better photos soon!

Hi everyone. Traded in my 2013 Focus ST for my first Mustang a couple weeks ago. Got a GT Premium in Magnetic. Loving the car so far! Enjoying the site too. Getting lots of mod ideas. Cant wait for some nice weather to really see what she can do.

 

[MANDARK]

Hey all, been lurking on the site for a few months now. Finally bit the bullet back in December and got my Base Magnetic Metallic GT with PP. This is my second Mustang, had a 2001 Auto V6 :barf: back in the day and swore I'd never do that again. But time has healed all wounds

Here's the new ride

And my "beater" (flamesuit on)
