View Full Version : Serious Topic: Why do you hate the Mustang?

Ok so I know its probably going to be a serious stretch to get a serious response out of the people here, but here goes.
So Ive owned my car for about two weeks now and I absolutely love it more than any previous car that Ive had. Im only 24, so saying that, I havent experienced a ton of vehicles. But Ive owned a WRX/300zx/etc, and driven many other high end vehicles a time or two. Yes, I know there are many cars out there that are amazing. However, Im talking about one certain car. Now, being completly honest, I ragged on the new Mustangs all the time, especially the V6 models. Mostly because I always saw women driving the base model sixers or maybe with the Pony package :gay: And I drove a friends auto V6 and it was a horrible experience. I vowed to myself that I would never own one, and Id stick with my Subaru. Now, the GT and previous year model Cobras, Ive always had a little respect for them because they are the true breed of what a mustang should be. Poor on gas mileage, rough ride, but having that special "V8" charm. Now, Ive never had the pleasure of driving a stock platform S197 GT, but when I went out to purchase another vehicle, the ones I had in mind were an Audi TT, Audi A6, VW GTI, Newer WRX, etc etc. I test drove all of them and they all had their special qualities I liked. However, it wasnt the "OMG I WANT" factor. Now, about to give up an the Mustang GT being the last one on my list to test drive, I gave it the benefit of doubt and took her out. Now mind you, the car isnt stock suspension wise. I took it out and was amazed and how stout the car felt, the lack of body roll, the feeling of actually having some "meat" in the rear (no pun intended). I fell in love with another domestic.
So here are some things Ive noticed about this car, coming from a few different import/domestic platforms:
1. The new GT has tons of aftermarket, even from import companies.
2. The fan base/forum base/etc is pretty large, which is to be expected.
3. The interior is decent, but who buys a Mustang for luxury anyways?
4. Personal opinion: I think the car is beautiful in the looks department, of course that will vary from person to person.
5. For under 21k dollars, I think you get a lot. (Personal opinion once again)
5. The car is more respected among others, more so than certain imports. Again, this will vary.
Now, with that being said, here is my question. If you dislike the vehicle, please say why? Dont just say, well I dont like it because its a Mustang and my grandma had a 96 base model V6 and it took a **** after 2 weeks. I want a serious educated response. And keep the comments civil, I dont want this to turn into a flame fest.

B/c you see them everywhere. I bought the sixxer to be different. Mustang and most V8 guys are d*cks. they think that just b/c they have 8 cyl their car is fast. lolol. I NEVER go to mustang meets nor do I like hanging with other mustang owners (except for a few that arent all hyped on their cars). They are cocky arrogant assh0les.
why are you worried if people like ur car or not? who cares. they didnt buy it.

Yeah, but I see a lot more 350Zs than I do Stangs......especially around the buckhead area. But most of the time I see V6 Stangs. I dont see too many GT's.
BTW, I dont care if people like my car. Trust me on that one bub. It was just a question to see if people have a real basis for their dislike.

1. Mustang drivers give the car a bad wrap. More than any other car I see mustangs burning out and purposely spinning their tires.
2. The new mustang has the cheapest, most rental car esque interior since the chevy malibu.
3. So many chicks buy them and suddenly think they're hot **** and have the best car ever.
4. Rednecks.
Why I hate that you have a mustang
1. Asians shouldn't drive fords.

I don't hate on the mustangs, I just couldn't see myself owning 1.
However, I do like the new model. I drove one, and it's good. I like the aftermarkets for it. If I have spare money, I'd go for one just for the raw muscle look and power.
However, from the social status and business point of view, I limit myself to owning one because I want the classy and luxury look + comfort. Hence why I chose the G35. Another reason is because I've always love the Nissan Skyline. With the G35 being the First official Skyline in US, and the body style is just gorgeous with the class. That's why I went for it.

I don't hate Mustangs. I love Cobras, Saleens, and a few other body styles.
The only thing I don't like about them is the lack of performance and the new body styles make me cringe.
I think it's all about personal preference.

If people are so called "enthusiasts" as they say they are rather than just fanboys, this shouldnt be the case.its just the way it'll always be. the people who "HATE" are the jealous ones or just immature. I dont hate any car. I love Scoobies, to EVO's to raised redneck trucks to slammed dualies. I love anything. I even think Vettes are nice and we are a dodge family. I am very open minded like yourself and there are a few other open minded people on here.

The reason why I don't like mustangs (or most tuner cars) is because 99% of the time the people who drive them are ass holes. They think their **** is the fastest car on the planet. Especially ignorant rednecks who think that just because their huge heavy car has a weak underpowered V8 that it will automatically smoke my "rice burner". They don't realize that a mustang GT is really not that fast (stock, or even slightly modded its still a 14 sec car with an average driver). Just because it will spin tires doesn't mean its a fast car. my grandma's toyota avalon will spin tires.
If it wasn't for all the dumbass rednecks around my area that drive mustangs, I would probably not have a problem with them.

Wow ...damn Im outta the loop lol Scion huh? What car?Long story and much controversy. It's not really a Scion. It the Japanese version of a Scion. According to FD rules you can't convert FWD to RWD (remember when Blake Fuller had the Integra? The rule came because of that.) and Scion's only com FWD. So the loop hole is the Japanese version of the car. Story here:

Love Mustangs. Used to have one. IMO the new body style is the best one since 1970. I'll probably own another one some day (another classic).
People don't like them for the same reason they don't like Honda Civics, they're everywhere. Also, like a lot of others touched on, a lot of the drivers give the car a bad name.

The did. It was called the Cobra in '03-04. It had an IRS suspension but the decided to go with the solid axle in 05+ b/c they were more concerned with drag times than road courses
wrong they axed the irs because of cost and weight. :goodjob:

thats the pot calling the kettle black.......i really thought bout a v6 firebird,since im looking for a new car
thats why i got the V6. I put out more HP than they do (not right now of coarse) and i get 27-30 mpg on the hwyOh, I can understand the logic behind opting for the V6. It's just the traditional mindset and perspective of "American Muscle" that would force me to get a V8. I know that if I got a V6, I'd never be happy with it.

one key main point and Ive driven the car is the suspension. Sure its fast but why a solid rear axle?Why not some independent ****?
But interior and the "drivers" are what also ticks me about that.

I dont like the live axle, and said I wish they were meant for more than just drag racing. You pointed out a ford that was more well rounded, congratulations.

whats with the comparison of the 350z? wtf? my car is not no mustang. i do like mustangs(preferably 03-04 cobras) but come on now, comparing it to the 3fitty is just insulting. i used to have a mustang(99 gt vert) i loved it, that torque is just addicting, and they do mod pretty easy. i like the new s197 mustang but its way to big. imo. my s196 felt much lighter and more nimble.(it was) but the new ones look sharp. Mustang>civic anyday. i would love to see the difference that suspension made on your's NEM. enjoy

I hate Mustangs because most of their drivers think they have something to hold over you and are arrogant assholes. I know a guy with a 2002 convt/auto/gt Mustang and there isn't one second he doesn't have his own head up his ass smelling his own ****. Also, there were 12 different Mustangs in my school parking lot all driven by girls. There were three more driven by two guy students and a teacher. At the time I drove an E30 and everyone of them wanted to race me because I had a BMW and they drove the ''all-mighty Mustang''.

Haha, have you ever gotten sick from drinking even if it's because you didn't eat something that didn't settle right before hand? It's kind of like hating the drink and not wanting to drink it again. I don't know, poor analogy but it's just something that seems to stick with the car itself because I know people with BMW's and such and they aren't as bad to me, hell my first car was a BMW. But 99% of the time Mustang drivers are dumb/jerks/domestic ricers. I don't mind if someone who is a decent guy has one, I won't openly just bash his ride because he doesn't make it be a god among others. Nemesis has always seemed cool to me so more power to him and modding his Mustang.

Ok so I know its probably going to be a serious stretch to get a serious response out of the people here, but here goes.
So Ive owned my car for about two weeks now and I absolutely love it more than any previous car that Ive had. Im only 24, so saying that, I havent experienced a ton of vehicles. But Ive owned a WRX/300zx/etc, and driven many other high end vehicles a time or two. Yes, I know there are many cars out there that are amazing. However, Im talking about one certain car. Now, being completly honest, I ragged on the new Mustangs all the time, especially the V6 models. Mostly because I always saw women driving the base model sixers or maybe with the Pony package :gay: And I drove a friends auto V6 and it was a horrible experience. I vowed to myself that I would never own one, and Id stick with my Subaru. Now, the GT and previous year model Cobras, Ive always had a little respect for them because they are the true breed of what a mustang should be. Poor on gas mileage, rough ride, but having that special "V8" charm. Now, Ive never had the pleasure of driving a stock platform S197 GT, but when I went out to purchase another vehicle, the ones I had in mind were an Audi TT, Audi A6, VW GTI, Newer WRX, etc etc. I test drove all of them and they all had their special qualities I liked. However, it wasnt the "OMG I WANT" factor. Now, about to give up an the Mustang GT being the last one on my list to test drive, I gave it the benefit of doubt and took her out. Now mind you, the car isnt stock suspension wise. I took it out and was amazed and how stout the car felt, the lack of body roll, the feeling of actually having some "meat" in the rear (no pun intended). I fell in love with another domestic.
So here are some things Ive noticed about this car, coming from a few different import/domestic platforms:
1. The new GT has tons of aftermarket, even from import companies.
2. The fan base/forum base/etc is pretty large, which is to be expected.
3. The interior is decent, but who buys a Mustang for luxury anyways?
4. Personal opinion: I think the car is beautiful in the looks department, of course that will vary from person to person.
5. For under 21k dollars, I think you get a lot. (Personal opinion once again)
5. The car is more respected among others, more so than certain imports. Again, this will vary.
Now, with that being said, here is my question. If you dislike the vehicle, please say why? Dont just say, well I dont like it because its a Mustang and my grandma had a 96 base model V6 and it took a **** after 2 weeks. I want a serious educated response. And keep the comments civil, I dont want this to turn into a flame fest.
**keeps flame suit at his side just in case**

It's the drivers...but I am amused by the drivers and I don't hate the car because of it. I laugh everytime I see some guy at a car meet revving his mustang like he is "the shi.t" and the "fastest of them all" as he tells people he has an X-pipe and flowmasters...and sometimes even gears and headers. Its funny, the car inspires its inexperienced drivers to think they are the are on top of the world, when they're bolt on V8's are only trapping 103. I actually like the car even more because I continue to walk away from them new and old (N.A V8's with bolt on's) and tell them inline-6, mostly stock as they continue demanding i'm turbo or something....I do love the Mustang car however, I was almost an owner and will be eventually if I get the money for a 71 mach 1

Hahaha. I know right. You may be suprised but I prob. just called out 95% of the Mustangs at Barrett Parkway and B.P. It's the same every weekend, constant Mustang rev's..."What do you got man?"..."Well umm, she's got the X-pipe and uh, flowmasters and I plan to put gears in eventually." A Mustang owner enlightened me about this and challenged me to go around asking GT owners who were revving.
Does it make me a ricer that the first thing I would do to a V8 Mustang is put on a nice exhaust?

Ford is producing the FR500s for racing, and they are being campaigned in the Koni Challenge as well as other series (iirc). The biggest problem with Mustangs in general for road course is the suspension geometry. It's really tough to get a car to turn when the front and rear roll centers are as goofed up as they are in Mustangs. The cars can be made to handle, but it's usually pretty spendy.

Ahh here it is! 1965
http://i26.tinypic.com/ra3yas.jpg
1965 was the first year for the shelby mustang to appear on the streets and only about 500 (+/-) models (gt 350 model) were made for street use.
http://i28.tinypic.com/2ztaeqp.jpg
just for example if every state were to recieve the same amount of GT350's there would be 10 of these in each state which would be very uncommon to spot one driving on the streets. Also in the next two years of production there were probably 3,000(+/-) models made and sold. Also in the year 1967 (i could be wrong) the GT500 emerged and i know there were 2000 or less of these made.
Now a days there are mustang models which include; standard GT, shelby GT, hertz shelby gt (500 models), shelby gt500, roush stage 1 (just cosmetic), roush stage 2 (cosmetic and suspension) roush stage 3 (cosmetic, suspension and supercharger), roush blackjack (most rare model), roush 427 (which is stupid and has nothing to do with c.i. and is the hp rating), saleen (cosmetic and minor performance, i/e and probably suspension), saleen parnelli jones mustang (my favorite model, 500 made i think, comes with 5.0 built motor rated @ 400 hp n/a), saleen supercharged, saleen supercharged extreme, ronaele 350r, ronaele, 450r, ronaele 550r, and special order ronaele 750r.

which all of these models as you can see makes the mustang "over played" imho. they are still "rare" models but are no where close to being as "rare" as the original gt350 and gt500, which is probably why they are orginals.
hope that is a serious enough answer for you, yet i do not hate on mustangs, i like them. just sometimes i think they are too played out.

i actually did leave out that edition which is called the mark III edition mustang but they are a peice. we had a few of those here at GPF. they are the mustangs with the faded paint scheme (ex. silver to black) ulgy bodykit (exhaust through the rear bumper with little tips lol) and ulgy 5 spoke wheels (split style).. like mine :lmfao:
edit: some mark III editions are V8
just because people want to produce versions of the car doesnt hurt the rarity.. half of those models normal folks will never see on the streets. Times have changed mustang is too popular to be sold in such low Limted numbers like back in 65. And its the onlyreal succesful muscle car left.. soo u have to expect companies to jump all over them and produce 20 different versions.

yes you are correct here, people have to make money, yet all of the version do hurt the "muscle car view" (i guess thats what i would call it) in my personal opinion. however i LOVE muscle/american cars and this is probably why i am against a few of the models
but i will take a parnelli jones mustang any day of the week

I was like YES a GT...so he pulls up next to me and I just started laughing. I had my windows down andhe was just starin so hard and he that one-arm-locked-on-the-top-of-the-steering-wheel-im-a-bad-ass-pose as he passed me. lol. So i hit him with the BOV.

how does it hurt? any succesful muscle car always has many versions..
from the base model with no luxuries with the best motor option
to the model that comes track ready.
and the many in between!
you need to trade it in for a icecream truck!!!! how are you gonna lure kids in with a mustang

i doesn't actually hurt the mustang in a sales way, but in the way people view mustangs (mainly people who like muscle cars over other vehicles) like i said it is just my opinion and what i think all of these models do to the mustang
i'm not saying i wouldn't drive any of these models but i would rather have a regular GT over a "base" saleen or roush even over the hertz shelby or shelby gt
like i said it is just an opinion :goodjob:

yes corvettes are mass produced now :( (except for the z06 and the new zr-1, which will only have 2000 models a year) but atleast the corvettes do not have all these other models. there is the C6, C6 "pace car" bullshit, and a z06, of course you have lingenfelter aftermarket however they are not sold at dealerships :)
I loved my mustang and I plan on getting another one in the future. I use to hang out with more of the import crowd than i did mustang or even domestic owners. I did hang out with 189plus for a while though.
Nemesis, your car is beautiful. Did you buy it with the mods on it already or did you choose all of them yourself?

Thanks man. Yeah Im trying to keep her clean. Pretty much all the parts actually were on the car before! I was pretty damn lucky and it saved me a bunch in modding expenses lol. In the past week I installed my exhaust and got my windows tinted, so probably the next thing is a CAI+Tune from Brenspeed. Ive seen some guys post runs in the high 12s with those mods (cai+tune, UDP, exhaust), so Im excited. I just need to practice at the track.

They use a lot of newer GT's for the Koni Challenge I thought?
The use them in GS (Grand Sport) or the one class faster than ST(Stree tuner) in Koni Challenge and they are very competitive.
What car are you talking about?
Ugh, IMO, thats one of the ugliest bodystyles they had. the fenders are as long as my fender and door put together...
Wow you are so right. How did I type 71 when I meant 67..whoops. Also, I was talkinga bout my car.

its an AVERAGE car thats why most people dont like it. Theres nothing flashy about it, its not fast, its dull in alot of ways.
But so is a honda civic, a wrx, etc. (get what im sayin?)
The mustang has a rep for fanboy rednecks. Put flowmasters on it and its FAST! But you find these stereotypes in any car market.
If YOU like it and enjoy it, who cares what anyone else thinks.
Im buying an auto Lexus and everyone is telling me ill never enjoy it.
oh well, ILL ENJOY IT (especially in traffic)

My "first" car was a 65 mustang coupe. I fixed it up for a little bit only to realize that is wasnt not a good first car given the condition it was in. This really got me into mustangs alot, so much that I pretty much hated imports. So I guess you could call me one of those cocky mustang owners. When I decided to sell the mustang, I bought a 94 prelude (which was totaled by a drunk), and this pretty much opened my eyes to the import world and the possibilities of these cars. I plan on getting back into mustangs after college because they really are nice cars (to me), but when I do, I probably wont be an ******* to import owners. Only ricers. :D
