Import beater!
I've had many imports and my mustang v6 convertible (silver w/tan leather interior) beats them all. I'm a guy and opted to get the v6. Plenty of power and better for my high miles commute. Gas milage is great for an automatic too. I had a stick since '86. This car is great at above highway speed. Love it! The best America has to offer. Built well, feels solid, and lots of room.. Didn't like the Camero convertible, space use/layout is off-putting, and looks like a car for a teenager. Speaking of teenager, this Mustang has interior mood lighting you can change colors. My GF likes it. This is my everyday car and only complaints I have is the ugly backend, sequential turn signal can't be de-activated, the trunk takes effort to close, Shaker 500 system is a little weak on the high end and finding any excuse to drive it!

Buy American Muscle
So far I have put 2200 miles on my Ford Mustang and everything is running great. Mine is a V6 premium, performance package, manual transmission. Bottom line is I bought this car for 23k$. The invoice was 29k$. If you negotiate really hard you can get it for that price, too. This is a lot of car for the money. All the interior bells and whistles like electric leather seats and Sync voice activated everything. Also has a great Shaker Audio stereo and speakers. The interior styling is nice - ambient light that you can control the color of and brushed aluminum trim. Some people say this car doesn't look as good outside as a Camaro. I think they are wrong. This car is more stylish than the Camaro. If you want to look like you are a 16 year old jock then buy a Camaro. If you are a grown up with taste buy a Mustang. The performance is great, too. The 305 HP engine gets up plenty quick. It is really enjoyable to drive. The gas mileage on mine has been around 22 around the town and as high as 26 on the highway. Of course I drive fast and like to shift at higher RPMs than I probably could. The peromance package is well worth the money. Mostly for the rims, Pirelli tires, and rear shift dif. This is basically the GT suspension on a v6. I can't overstate how much better these rims are than the stock or even than the premium rims. Check them out. They are black 19s and they look sweet. Other than that - buy a Ford because they didn't take bail out money and they are Union made in America. Forget about Chevy and Government Motors, Inc. Don't spend your hard earned money to provide big bonuses for Japanese fat cats at Infiniti or Lexus. Let the Germans eat their Sauerkraut BMW's with their overpriced parts and service. Buy this American Muscle Car with more tradition that either the Chevy or the Dodge. -A Great American

Amazing Price for this Ponny
I paid 44.000 Usd (taxes included) to own my Mustang GT, however no car in Chile have this Price/Value combination. My last car was a Subaru WRX 2009 and I was looking renew this car for the same model Subaru WRX 2011, however the price is aroud 40.000 USD (taxes included). If you compare this models (Driver experience, Power, Look, interior, general performance, etc), you will see that you can't compare, because Mustang GT is SO MUCH BETTER than Impreza WRX. I Still can't believe this price/value combination, is Excellent. Great Driver experience, Look, Comfort, Speed, Acceleration......... BUY ONE NOW!!!!

Greatest muscle car ever
2011 Mustang GT 5.0 Premium Convertible 6-speed: This is the first Ford I've owned. I love this car. It is constructed with high-quality materials, drives and handles like a dream, and is a thrill to drive. I drive it every day and look forward to it each time. The combination of muscle car performance and styling with modern suspension, brakes, and the MYSYNC integrated NAV/Stereo/streaming MP3/Weater/Traffic system is amazing. Well done, Ford! I do not miss my Porsche! And yes, the aluminum block/head 412hp 5.0L V8 is fantastic. I also get 19 mpg. That's as good as my old Subaru. (It did not have a 412hp V8.)

Outstanding daily driver (2011 Mustang V6)
Great daily driver! Vary quite ride if you want it to be and can easily catapult itself in to the highway. Also provides vary high cornering predictablity and confidence. There is a bit of body roll but thats ussaly only at around 70mph on 90degree three lane turns using the optimal cornering driving line. Extreamly smooth ride at 80mph while only revving just under 2000 rpm at 6th gear. Capable of crusing at 100mph smoothly with mild cross winds also only revving at around 2700-2800rpm at 6th gear. You may expreiance a little bit of panel vibration at around 120 mph. A little nose float at around 140mph if its windy. Red line at 6750rpm. With 18inch wheels that are also a bit wider than the standard 17inch, you can have the limiter legaly raised to 155mph on the V6 opposed to the 115mph with the 17inch eco tires. about a 2,000$ upgread including wheels and tires. My only quam is the stiff suspentions and the live rear axel. If the roads you normally drive on are well maintianed the 2011 mustang is as smooth as a ride can get, wonder over to sub par roads however and you will know it vary quickly. This car will have you looking forward to your commute to and from work every day if you enjoy the act of driving!! All around a great everyday driving car, provided you are single and dont like to caddy large groups of people around.

Great Vehicle
I got lucky and found a low mileage Mustang GT that I bought. It is by far my favorite car I've owned. Yes, the interior isn't Lincoln Class, but I wasn't buying the car for it's interior, which isn't that bad anyway. I have the premium model with brembo brakes, and it is incredible. Keep in mind I replaced a 98 Camaro Z28, so the technological advances since then are huge. The Stang has advance trac that you can turn off if you want to light up the rubber. Even with it on, sometimes is spins them a little when I really lay into the gas. Needless to say it is a great feature. The engine is amazing. 412 HP and get this...it gets the same gas mileage as the 2008 mazdaspeed3 I sold which has a 4 cyl turbo. YES, this powerful V8 gets the same gas mileage as a 4 cylinder Mazda Speed! Unbelievable! This car is 10 times what that mazda was, and feels so much better to sit in. I'd even say I feel safer in the Mustang than that Mazda. I'm not sure if I'll drive it in the winter, I may get a beater, but I hear with top of the line winter tires, and the advancetrac on, the Mustang will do very good in snow. Personally, I think the fit, feel, looks and performance make this car as great as it is. And it's not bad as a daily driver, I don't feel like I'm down on the ground like in my old camaro. My 5 year old rides in the carseat in the back just fine. A seat buckle extender is a must for him to buckle himself, but thats about it, and the Mustang really can be a part time family car. (My wife has a SUV so we use that for a lot of other family activities, I'm just saying the Stang isn't some small super-crampped econo box.) One other thing, it actually has a trunk you can use, and a pretty big one at that> I am very pleased with this car, and would highly recommend if you're in the market for this type of vehicle. You will not be dissapointed.
