    Before I bought mine I talked to a ton of previous mustang owners and most of them said that it is the most fun they have had with a car and that if they could they’d buy another

    I think the Mustangs look better with no spoiler. I think because the trunk has a upward pitch to it.

    • @jordanadams7168
      @jordanadams7168 2 роки тому +2

      I personally don't hate a spoiler on these, I feel like it enhances that upward pitch, but at the same time it looks good without one, Ford did a fantastic job designing this car

    My 2016 California special is white with black trim. Living in Florida, its hard to keep clean, but I wash it almost everyday. Only mod I have is a cold air intake. Air aid. I live the sound it makes. Flo masters are next and thats it.

    also for the suspension, get the steeda wheel hop full package, you will thank me later, i had the package and swap the performance pack sway bars and strut shock with progressive spring, the handling now is superior with the sve r350 wheels on recently

    I went with Magnetic Silver having already 2 other black cars... Also the Mustang paint quality is not the best (soft clear coat) so unless the owner spends a lot of $$$ upfront to protect it (the car will need paint corrections straight fro the dealer when new) black Mustangs are really difficult to keep up. Good video. Thanks.

    I have had my 19 since August 19. I have the Steeda progressive rate lowering springs and the Steeda stop the hop kit. I also have 20x9 +30 offset Verde axis wheels with 285/35/20 BFG comp 2 A/S tires. The car handles fantastic with this set up. Deleted the resonator with the Steeda H-pipe and the sound is perfect. I have had zero issues and tend to drive the car pretty hard at times with cruises and track time. I also ha e done plenty of appearance upgrades with stripes,, lighting, underhood beautification.. It definitely is dependable and a very livable sport Coupe.

  • @leoxia3458

  • @leoxia3458

    i am currently still NA, no boost yet. Already spend around $7k on the mods, mostly DIY, labor cost around $400, if u plan to get supercharged in the future, prepare ur budget around 10k+, i will not do it. I probably will trade the GT for a 2019+ gt350

  • @swanblake
    @swanblake 5 років тому +2

    spring rates are what matter. I'm sure the eibachs are a higher spring rate than stock and that is what's causing those differences. Firehawks are great but just a little noisey. Shocked about the oil leak. Was looking at exchanging my Z for a 2015 up GT but worry about the reliability especially with a used mustang. Awesome update and appreciate the video

    • @Carguments
      @Carguments  5 років тому

      Yeah the Oil leak surprised me too. If your looking a mustang just make sure its still in warranty. From what I have seen on the s550 owners page on facebook most guys have seen the Oil leak while still under warranty.

    I’m 19 I’ve owned two mustang gts, a new edge and now a 3v. I’ve been thinking about financing a car, im able to put down a large down payment ($7k-$9k), my parents have very good credit and can cosign for me, and i have a decent job. I was really considering getting a c6 corvette but it just becomes kinda difficult to justify paying over $20k for a car that will be 20 years old by the time i finish paying it. For about $25k I can find an early gen (2015-2016) s550 mustang GT, and honestly thats becoming extremely appealing to me. I fucking LOVE mustangs its crazy to think a year ago i would’ve never thought I had a legitimate chance of buying a new mustang before i turn 21 but here I am shopping.

      Did you pull the trigger man? Fuck I’m in the same boat to. Gona graduate from a jet maintenance school really soon and have been lookin into an s550 from those years too. Seems like the perfect bargain. Was gona try to get a gen 6 zl1 but that’ll be too much rn and the fastest thing I’ve driven Is my Camry lol I’d probably kill myself.

    for spoiler, front splitter i got apr carbon fiber, for rear wing, i got steeda race functional wing, u can also choose the apr drag race carbon fiber wing about $300 more than the steeda. For carbon fiber rear wing, the concern is the surface coat will peel off eventually getting sun burn
