Test drove new mustang gt

There is no replacement for displacement no matter what anyone says, but 370z > Mustang.

So, do you want Kate Upton, or Peg Bundy who can run a 4.2 40?

Bought one on Saturday since the 370z will no longer be my daily driver as its going through a hardcore HP transformation. The GT's turbo project will start after I get further along with the Z. I dont want both the cars too far apart from running at the same time.

Those of you who think this car is ugly, or has a crappy interior... youre either nuts or you havent seen/driven the 2015. I got the black leather recaros and they are one of if not thee nicest car seats I have ever sat in. The interior is every bit as nice as my 370z, and the electronics and connectivity package in the mustang blows my Z out of the water.. theres no comparison there. But hey, its 6 years newer also. Its also got these awesome like 15" 6 piston brembos in the front that are pretty nice. I could ramble for a good hour about the features this car has that my Z does not. But I am just being defensive about my new car here. I love my Z every bit as much, and the things it doesnt have, it doesnt need... and it does other things as well or better without.

No matter all the things my Mustang has.. A 2015 Mustang GT is NO replacement for a 370z. No way, no how. You simply must have both. I have no idea how i could possibly live without either of them now.

My springs will be here hopefully tomorrow so this thing can come in for landing.

I like the new body style too. I wonder how this new stang will launch with the new differential setup at the drag strip. I haven't seen one there yet.

Beautiful car in its own right Phunk.. I think most of us here are biased and have a lust torwards Japanese and European styling. I'll be the first to admit the late model Stangs and Camaros have more potential in every aspect (except styling jmo). Domestic muscle is no longer that, they are now performance/sports cars and damn good.

I love the rear of the car the most. I really dig the tail lamps and the placement of the reverse light.

I've never been a Mustang fan, but there is no denying how fast they are.. especially the 2015's. With DR's, exhaust, CAI, some suspension work and some small weight reduction, this one ran a 11.2 @ 121mph. Lol, looks like after a few runs they already need a new clutch! Whatever it was they got the car fixed and recently ran a 10.6 all motor.

Then there comes the Z who discovered the world is full of curves and its round!

Nice Mustang. Yes, I do not understand some comments on here describing the Mustang as poor fit n finish etcetc. From the reviews i have read it seems the Mustang is a very high quality car that drives really well and has that stonking coyote! I have come back to this forum after quite a bit of absence and it seems most of the members here I find quite annoying as they post /reply rubbish. Yours is the only post i have seen that is "normal/logical/does not deride".

Magic Bus

Nick, with your last 2 sentences and comments, it sounds like you may have just fit yourself right into that annoying/rubbish category.

I agree with you that there are a number that do not post, normal/logical/does not deride comments, but from my experience on here, the majority of posters on this forum are fairly objective. Phunk is definitely a positive contributor here, but to say that his is the only post that is normal, I have to respectfully disagree.

Test drove new mustang gt......Meh

phunk

I can't comment on launching yet... 22 degrees out and wheel-hop city. Probably put 20,000 miles worth if wear on my axles and differential/mounts in the last 500 miles trying to drive the car hard with summer tires in cold weather. I actually just put it away for a little bit because I'm getting frustrated not being able to drive it all out right now.

I must admit the interior of the 2015 mustang is a big improvement from the "Fisher Price" plastics of the previous model.
Finally even the chevy's interiors has come to life and worth the accolades.

I guess the bankruptcy has taught them a lot of lessons.

Duc_Z09

I know how we can settle this.

370Z Coyote swap anyone?
