We're a Ford Fmaily now!

Sexy styling, lots of get up n' go, color is delicious orange. Replaced our 2011 that hit a deer with this 2018. The ride is nicer, road noise is about the same, we both love it!

Best Performance for money

I bought a 2018 mustang Ecoboost premium with 201a group, performance package and magniride damping system. The 201 a group with lot of options and customizable odometer UI is just awesome. Performance package is a must if you want to feel the drive of a sports car. Magneride damping system which is a dynamic suspension adds a lot of thrill to the drive. The only thing to worry is that you get summer tires with performance package. You should be ready to get all season or winter tires if you need to drive in snow or low temperatures as Ford don't recommend summer tires below 45'.

Sleek Pony.

Style lines recall the great Mustangs of old. Really sharp looking and the Lightning Blue is a head-turner. She is just a tad sluggish from standing start to first then second gears (I have the 10-speeed automatic) but then she really gallops down the road. Plenty of turbo-pep.

Uncomfortable if you're short

Tried this car out and quickly knew it wasn't the one for me. The side bolsters of the seat come out quite a bit and I had to pull the seat up so close to reach the pedals that I felt extremely cramped. The performance of the car was not what I expected

2018 Mustang GT Performance Package 10 speed FTW

I can't say enough about this car. In 2018, Ford improved the performance out of the 5.0L giving it factory 460hp. The 10r80 10 speed transmission is so good, it keeps you in the powerband the entire time during full throttle. The interior is so much better than previous models, Ford really stepped up their game. The 401A dash package cannot be overlooked and I highly recommend it for anyone interested in a 2018-up Mustang. The Performance Package includes bigger Brembo brakes which stop the car on a dime, revamped suspension and nice wheels and tires. You can tell right away if a car is a Premium PP car or not. 10 stars from this guy...but since there are only 5 stars available I give it 5 stars!

EcoBoost has plenty of zip

Wife saw this royal crimson Mustang as a replacement of a Suburban we owned. We have the EcoBoost premium. We preferred the cloth seats iver the leather. Built in GPS and phone pairing is nice. Has different driving modes that changes feel of suspension. Beautiful lines.

Most fun ride I've owned!

The convertible gives more headroom for the backseat passengers than the fastback even with the top up. I love being able to put the top down on a nice day and cruise. The new 10 speed automatic transmission makes automatics actually fun to drive now.

Fun car

Overall I like the car. I went from a 2014 mustang gt to a 2016 GT to a 2018 mustang gt. The 2014 in my opinion was my most reliable as I never had to bring it by the dealer other than for oil changes. My 2016 probably spent 13 days total at a dealership over 2.5 years or ownership for warranty work. My 2018 has already spent 6 days at a dealer within 1 month of ownership. I love the car when everything works as it should. I would not own this car with out a warranty on it.
