    If you're worried about gas mileage and price of filling up just run 87. You rarely drive it so 91 is not necessary. Also if you don't want to race just give someone a thumbs up. It's more about being a good sport not having something to prove.

    A stock Mustang is great. The resale value is always in "stock" original equipment sports cars. As soon as I see a long list of modifications and racing gear installed by a prior owner I'm out of there because it tells me that the previous owner beat the hell out of the car and now wants to sell the damage they did to somebody else. How many times have you seen this ad: "Over $100,000 invested, Make Offer"?. No Thanks! Stock is the way to go.

  • @DerekChristensen
    @DerekChristensen 4 роки тому +14

    With regard to that low-end torque disappointment... You should look into rear axle/differential gear (ratio) change. May have been that your ‘96 had a better ratio. A set of 3:73 or 4:10’s would move your engine into the powerband quicker. Same engine power, but the torque gets multiplied. I was just reading up on it with regard to 2011-14 Mustangs a half hour ago. Google Mustang differentials. Not dirt cheap but well worth it.

    i'm 34 and i think age plays a part in what you're looking for in a sports car. like you said, other videos of mustangs are more about the mods but i just wanted to know about the car itself. so thanks for great content!

    These cars are beautiful stock in the 11-12 s197 body style. Throwing mods on your car can actually devalue it. I drive a stock 2006 Mustang GT as a daily and have a couple other Mustangs.
    I got a 2003 GT with Bassani catback, BBK headers, BBK CAI, Hurst shifter (it's still slow haha) All sn95s are when they are naturally aspirated unfortunately..
    Also own a third Mustang a 2005 V6.
    The one with all the mods the 03 sometimes isn't the best for all occasions because mods get so loud and make it less reliable.. plus the stock Mustangs technically have more value if I were to sell them..

    don't those things have like 400 hp??? how is that embarassing? Why would anyone do anything to it other than maybe intake / exhaust stuff? Even then those upgrades are pretty much pointless probably (I don't know much about this car so maybe exhuast mods for sound or something would be worth???) i'm still looking for under hood shot so I can see the intake, but yea unless it has a shitty intake and you want that cold air intake sound, and different exhaust sound, fuck modding it. Maybe for the track or strip but if you don't do that there's no reason to mod it. Most people talking about modding it are losers who are just trying to look knowledgeable and use that to put themselves above you, because they are jealous of your car because a) they blow their money so fast they can't afford even this, or b) their lady won't let them get one.

    Mustang crashing into crowd and stigmas like this are just haters being funny. It is obvious that as you said it is the easiest moded car available. There are parts everywhere for these cars old and new. There are 3-4 times the amount of Mustangs sold and or still on the road than corvette's and camaro's combined over the last 50 years. Therefore, any jack wagon who wants to show off and doesn't know how to drive can own one and mod one with the cash he/she gets having an extra part time job.

    Get out of California. Up here in Maine, no one cares if its stock or what mods you do. There's Mustangs all over the place and most people are just going to work or shopping. Run 87 gas. If you aren't racing, there's no need for premium gas in the Coyote engines. No one wants to race me out here, that's kid stuff more common in southern states where everyone is a youtuber or tiktoker. We also don't have wall to wall city traffic. Lots of winding country roads to enjoy a drive. $3.89 for 87 octane and 4 years later, here in Maine, we are paying $3.30, 4 years ago, we were paying $2.00 a gallon. Seriously, get out of California.
