I don't care for the new Mustangs, and I don't think Mustangs have ever been comparable to the Vette, but hey, everybody's got different tastes and that's what makes the world go 'round...good luck with your new ride!

I guess I don't get where that comes from but whatever. Read lots of reviews and have buddies with the new models and no problems whatsoever. Have a great day

Ill tell you right now to get a catback ordered. The stock exhaust is so quiet it sucks. Also the gt350 sfeering wheel is a nice upgrade

I'm 72 years old, a disabled vet and have no problem getting into, or out of my C-5, or my C-7. You might want to consider learning how to do it with ease.

Looks fantastic! My wife has an older (2014) Ruby Red Mustang GT Premium that we both really like. It and the last GT she bought have been great, dependable cars. Enjoy your new ride!

Good for you and I hope you can for years. If you'd clear your eyes I said my wife had a hard time getting in and out. Have a nice easy day

Well, 2000 miles, slp loudmouth exhaust to enhance the sound and loving the new ride. I know I'll get ribbed for this post but no complaints and loving the cruises. Oh, and haven't called AAA at all. Haha. Power is unreal now that I'm a little more adventurous with being broke in. Mileage is great and getting better. Still love corvettes but for now this is a treat. As always, drive on and enjoy.

Wow! Evil and wicked looking stang!! Good luck and best wishes to you! You never know where automotive interests may lead you, maybe full circle some day, and we'll see you again. You never know! In the meantime, have fun with your new toy!

Good looking car, congrats! If I couldn't own a Corvette a Mustang would be my next choice.

Don't know how anyone could get bored with a car that has more power than I know what to do with, along with comfort and all the different driving modes it has. Don't knock it till you try it. Oh and the sound is awesome too. One of these days i'll have my c6 grand soprt but until then i'll have a great time with my mustang.
