Not the slightest bit.
Humm, I guess I would have said something like that...

V6 sounds better than en EB with an exhaust
That would have been across the board but wasn't done on Canadian cars because they were the DRLs.Canadian cars all came with fog lights.

Good question. The main selling point for me with this car were the new handling characteristics. If it can't handle, then I couldn't care less about anything else. And let's face it, up until 2015, most Mustangs couldn't hang on a windy backroad worth a damn. When I say windy, I mean Deal's Gap windy, not 4 corners every 2 miles. I followed a 2015 GT PP1 on the dragon in 2015 and was blown away, I knew something was up. When I was shopping for one, I was looking for a specific mileage cap, price, track package with nothing other than 3.73 and a color. If it were 2018 or 2016 I wasn't worried about it.2016 GT 435 hp/400 tq
2018 GT 460 hp/420 tq
Why would you buy a 2016 GT when you could have bought a 2018 GT? What is your reasoning?
Funny you ask that. I had a test drive for a GT350 lined up that was $45K up north. Before driving up, I decided to do about 2 weeks of research on the Voodoo engines. Probably the main reason for not going through with it is that I was too discouraged from the horror stories of a quart of oil consumption every 1k miles. From my 2 GTPP S550s, I can vouch that the Coyote doesn't do that. You may have a different experience, and that is great. I hope that issue gets worked out. However, I would be a fool to say that the GT350 doesn't look better, sound better, rev better, and overall perform better than my GT. It's simply a better car. Just like the GTPP is a better car than the V6.Why would you choose the 5.0 when there's a 5.2? Not meaning to nag but like, my GT350 is like, so much more like, engaging and like superior. Like why would you choose the weakest like V8? Like seriously?
Someone else's money isn't any of your business. 3 things a gentleman doesn't debate about. Money, politics, and religion. However, not on the topic of debate, and because I am going to humor you a bit...for what it's worth, I paid cash for my car. With 16k miles, clean carfax, one owner, out the door was $28,8xx not including tag and registration and all that, because that varies between states. But hey, you know what they say when you assume right? You make an ass out of u and me.I haven't seen anyone mention cost here, but maybe the OP is just being a dick trying to look down his nose at those that can't afford the size bank loan he has on his Stang.
1. That's nice. I'm talking about S550s.1. The Cyclone engine has more power than any of the standard V8 engines before 2011.
2. There is a national club dedicated to the six banger Mustang. Look up M6A.
3. A straight six has less engine vibration.
I agree.This is a great thread...
Canada is always behind on their lighting laws as well.Wow! Never occurred to me, so they should be on all the time. That would explain it I guess!
This thread pretty much unfolded exactly the way I suspected it would, it revealed characters that go unseen over forums. I would say that the title is provoking, but definitely not negative, yet the keyboard warriors were quick to approach. Coming from cars that are not Mustangs, cars that aren't offered in different engine formats, the main goal was not for you to justify your purchase, but just to humor me, and humor I got. It seems to be an average answer of liking Mustangs, but going with the lower price overall while sacrificing other things. (More powerful or premium models) I never once said that a V6 was less reliable, despite your constant and main point (As if the Coyote is not reliable) to make that known. I was never a Mustang guy, although I do love certain older models for what they are. You weren't forced to comment on this thread, or make a point, and you weren't forced to "justify" your purchase, you chose to do so. This thread made #2 for last week's topics so I may as well humor some comments on here.

1. That's nice. I'm talking about S550s.
2. Couldn't care less about any clubs, especially not that one.
3. Don't chime in on the action if you don't know the difference between a V and Straight engine.
I agree.
Also, I find it hilarious that the topic of drag racing came up here. Stock V8 vs stock V6 S550, please just stop talking. I only got this car because it was so fun in the twisties, but I do have other vehicles that can do definitely do more in the twisties with a much smaller engine than a V6 and I'm always up for a good drive. With that being said, since we're all on the same chassis, it should come down to driver vs driver, right? ;)
My IQ dropped after reading 4+ years of justification posts sorry :(Yet, here you are...commenting on the dumbest stuff on the internet, and making typos.
In this case, @nastang87xx was being facetious.Funny you ask that. I had a test drive for a GT350 lined up that was $45K up north.

Homie is on damage control lol.In this case, @nastang87xx was being facetious.
Well, in the thehunterooo's defense, he's not actually making typos, he and I buy from the same place T7pos-R-Uz.Yet, here you are...commenting on the dumbest stuff on the internet, and making typos.
I bought GT instead, but was initially targeting V6.I don't mean to nag anyone about their purchase but it's something that literally makes no sense to me. The V6 S550 has the least power and least torque and 2nd best fuel mileage out of all of the new S550s...
Let's go off pre-2018 since I own a 2016.
GT = 435hp/400tq - I average about 14-18 mpgs
EB = 310hp/350tq - Can easily see 28-30 mpgs
V6 - 300hp/280tq - But why?
The EB is probably the easiest to make power with because turbo duh!
The V8 is obviously the most fun and sounds the best, until your EB has 550tq? Idk
So, what is your reasoning?
And 99.9999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999% of chicks won't give you any less or more credit for a Mustang in general, even a 350 or a 500. She probably thinks the 458 Speciale sitting outside the club is a Lamborghini.2. 95% of chicks have no clue wtf a GT is and it looks like a GT.
