I love the puddle lights, they're super cool. Some bowtie ones would've been cool too.

Some people will change manufacturers as often as they change their underwear. They'll go from a Ford to a Dodge to a Hyundai to a Toyota without even batting an eye. To each their own.

I am GM loyal. My entire family, back to my great grandpa have only purchased GM vehicles.

When I was looking around for cars, I got between a mustang and a camaro. 2010 v6 mustang or 2011 v6 camaro. The mustang felt incredibly sloppy, cheap and sluggish. I'm very glad I went camaro. One of my friends has a 2016 v6 mustang and it feels sloppy. I'd take the 5th gen camaro over a 6th gen mustang unless its the GT vs SS. Although if it was 6th v 6th Id go SS

Agreed. My 2014 Camaro 2LS was years ahead of any V6 Mustang.....with or without puddle lights.

Just never been a Ford guy. Plus I hate the way the back of the 6th gens look.

I have 0 brand loyalty, I just want to drive awesome cars.


I had a 2015 Mustang GT PP for 2 years. Compared to my 2019 1LE - it's night and day in terms of track capability, suspension, transmission, grip etc. I learned my lesson not to buy the first year model of any car with the Mustang - was plagued with issues.



That is not an apples to apples comparison however - would be more fair to compare the new Mach 1 with the 1LE or even a GT350. If I had the money, I would have a GT350 in my garage as well - but to me the price difference is not worth the small nod in performance to the GT350. Love that voodoo sound though.


Before I bought my 1LE I crosshopped the updated S550 - but it had the same floaty feel suspension, shitty (although not as terrible as people say) transmission, and was more expensive. PP1 wouldn't compare but maybe PP2 would - I didn't drive one. I love my 1LE - the $ to performance is unmatched in my opinion.

There are 2 Mustangs that I would own. The first is Tim Allen's 1993 Saleen Mustang(can't afford) and the other is a 1993 SVT Cobra in the Teal color(out of production). That's the reason I didn't buy a Mustang.

I will give Ford kudos on it, gimmickee maybe but also very clever. But no worse than a performance car with an automatic.

I jest.

Because that one has Ford's Modular Garbage Truck motor under the hood and is effectively worthless as a performance vehicle.

-- Really Bwaahhh???

I bought my 2010 SS in June 2009. Aside from the stupid plastic bushing in the Clutch Slave Cylinder, I've had very few issues in the 238,000 miles that I've put on it thus far.
