To start I never thought I'd be a mustang owner......as I've always been one to desire something a bit more obscure/unique. I finally found a 3.7 MT to test drive and END OF STORY......in my driveway an hour later. I leveraged the hell out of them down to 21,600 w/ a free tint job.
Ford has done their homework here. This V6 is a work of art for the price.....and dare I say the hands down fastest car for the money I paid on the road. This v6 makes quasi-usable torque down low, but once the RPM's climb above 3.5k it's all grins. I'm very impressed overall, I'm glad ford retired that ancient 4.0L V6.
Only a couple gripes so far, albeit small.........a good size cup in the cupholders makes you reach in an awkward fashion for the shifter. 1-2nd shifts are very notchy and more difficult to engage than 2-3-4-5-6.
Overall, Kudos to Ford for making an entry level mustang that isn't simply a poor mans means to a mustang.
Disclaimer: Though I vehemently disagree with random street racing, a 350z was messing with me today. Took him by 1/2 length by 60 and a full length by 90. I'm curious what gears would have done to totally destroy him.
FYI, drove to see a friend 80 miles one way, car display read 32.3 MPG.
