The 2011+ Mustang Thread

[Splitter]

275k miles on my 98 f150 and the only thing I've need to done to it is re-stabilize the front axle and give it grease oil n filter every couple thousand!

sorry to go off topic, but smashing on ford in general isnt fully needed! maybe if it was rice, but... =P

KEEP IT CIVIL.

We're going to crack down on name calling, etc - as it's gotten out of hand.
Agree to disagree, or get out of the thread.
And make no mistake, I'm talking to ONE person specifically right now....

Consider this the last public warning.

Let's add that the new motor will cost money, and that a nicer interior, if ever implemented, will add to cost. For the money, the Camaro is the clearly better deal as no one can dispute that GM invested its very soul into the Camaro. In the end, someone has to pay for the new engine, better interior, and more advanced components. If you have a Mustang that costs only a little less than the Camaro with cheap parts, comparatively poor performance, and an inferior suspension, price will no longer be in Ford's favor.

what is with you guys and these "cheap parts" "plastic interior made by a 12yr old boy" "inferior suspension" (that handles fine by the way) these comments are so ignorant its ridiculous. denial is way too heavey around these here parts, i give credit where credit is due but u guys are just nuts with these comments as if the mustang was literally made oout of cardboard or something.

fanboyism is way to high here, read the memo!! not every other car but yours is made out of paper mache. you guys talk about how old an SRA is but u dont say anything about your 20yr old pushrod engines? lets get realistic here and put some thought into your posts instead of blindingly making crazy comments that make sense 40% of the time.

the same one that states the steering wheels sucks? how about the jalopnik or motor trend reviews that call out the interior for what it is, NOT GOOD?

thats the problem with facts... oh well, yeah it is good, claustrophobic and cheap, chevy has raised the bar yet again

at least we (i) make valid points... and actual real facts. instead of
"the mustang is made out of cardboard assembled by a 12yr old boy in china literally"

Actually i was talking about a review. You can read it at Motortend.com, they share my opinion.





Now... would one of those 'valid points' be that the steering wheel is rubbish?

As Dragoneye said, let's be smart about how we phrase this. Yes—you are on a Camaro site where people may or may not arbitrarily side with the Chevy over the Ford. You should have known that when you typed Camaro5 into your browser for the first time.

On the other hand, you quoted my first post in this thread as though I was in here arguing with you for the last month. I just got here, man. You should offer to take my coat or something first.

I test drove a Mustang and came to the conclusion that it had an inferior interior. That was my conclusion. I came to the same conclusion driving multiple Chryslers. The Camaro has the best interior by far in terms of uniqueness of design and quality when it comes to the interior. That uniqueness may be too much for some people, but I think that the quality is indisputable. From a comparative perspective, having looked at all 3 of the pony cars, I can safely say with confidence that the Camaro has the best interior.

I did not say that your car sucks or that you suck for driving a Ford. Don't get so defensive. If you had a Scion, I might have gone ahead and said that and our thread would be closed by now.

what?

Edmunds: "and you know it the first time you bend the Ford into a corner. It feels lithe and trim, and its front end bites into the tarmac with tenacity.

At the skid pad, the Mustang's 0.91g result is the grippiest in this comparison. It stops the shortest at 107 feet from 60 mph. And while its 68.4-mph slalom result cedes the smallest sliver of speed to the Camaro, there is no sharper car in this test than the Mustang. It boils down to a driver's race versus the Camaro on our continuously winding drive loop."

0-60 in 4.9 = Camaro wins all day long.

[Georgie]

how about steering wheel, seats, pedal spacing and design, plastic quality, lack of real navigation, tackiness, useless gauge clusters, cabin overly silent for a muscle car

come on dude, it has its flaws

Cool off! This thread is going to get deleted. Everyone stop posting for 5 minutes and hope that the thread is still here then so that you can make points before the moderators get mad. If I were one of them, I'd be deleting posts left and right!
