  • dry eyes anyone

  • I have this car it's badass!

  • Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude...could you BE any more BORING? Jeeeeeeeesus Chriiiiiiiiist.

  • I feel bad for whoever bought a 2010 lol

  • I don't car what anyone says... a naturally aspirated V6 engine with 305 hp that STILL gets 31 mpg is extraordinary. But the problem is people are still going to bash on the V6 Mustang no matter what, simply because it's a V6. Ford can keep making the V6 better and better, but everyone is still going to hate it. Makes me sick...

  • @punchmaster123 people like to bash v-6's in genral. theyre too big for the tuner crowd and too small for the V8 crowd. let them bash, then let them see the taillights of a GN.

  • tjhdfj;sagkdsag huh sorry, fell asleep on the keyboard.....

  • AWESOME car not him he is LAME

  • In Motor Trends hot lap the boss 302 track time was 1:41.06 to the GT500 1:44.03 and the boss is about 1/3 less the price. A 375 hp twin turbo SHO V6 in a stang would rape both these cars for about 36k. Horsepower is not everything. Braking balance weight tranfer and corner g force hooking the ponys up work all together in making a great track time. For the horsees the gt500 has it's 1/4 mile times are not even that good,If you can't hook it up, its wasted power and weight. GT is now a dinosaur

  • Does this sound better than the V8?

  • if they say its 305 horsepower to the crank and its putting 308 to the wheels its really like 360 horsepower to the carmk because of parisitic loss

  • @MrFootball150

    i think they get less at the wheels, and using the assumed drive train loss they back-calculate it to get the figure for the power from the flywheel. maybe? :S im not sure myself, im just guessing

  • @Greno yeah i guess that they could have. i would wanna see the dyno sheet to know for sure

  • @MrFootball150

    yeah thats it. they didn't show it so its unclear what they did :S

  • I do have to admit the Boss stang is the best production muscle car ever. But the motors been upgraded, front A arms all done over, bigger brakes and I wonder if it has the electic type resitant shocks were the fluid gets hard by computer sencers like a rolls. Ford is dying to put the SHO turbo v6 in a stang, but then what would they do with the GT & Shelby?

  • Put lower gears that are in the GT stang in the V6 performance pakg, off the gov, put in a lighter high rev driveshaft. I'd bet the V6 would walk all over the V8 on a track. It's a much lighter better balanced car than the V8. Everytime I watch a V8 stang brake hard, it reminds me of someone trying a handstand. Its a shame to see this beautiful motor in such an unbalanced car. They added 6"cowl forward,instead of pulling the motor back they added leg room.$ always win out over performance

  • @liellibg it's an american car. sure america is catching up, but they have never been famous for balance. they usually lack in suspension and handling and make up for that with a giant engine.

  • Comment removed

  • This guy has the worst annunciation ever. Sounds like he has a mouth full of marbles when he talks. Gets on my nerves.

  • Is this a manual Mustang with a locker diff?

  • was that 308 to the wheels or crank?

  • @BLACKMAMBA52588 crank buddy

  • @chinchillawrangler lol ok, that is still awesome for a American 6 but there is just something about a Coyote & LS3 that gets my blood boiling!

  • والا عندنا. اكزوز وحده. واقساط. وغاليه وايجار بيت

    كوس ام هل بلد. والله

  • What makes me happy is those dicks can't be like "only pussies drive v6's" this thing will beast on their stupid accords.

  • Is that dyno test using regular 87 octane?

  • nice video

  • How this may have more power than the 05-09 mustang 4.6l v8?

  • @Markkanenn better engine designs and other stuff ect.

  • not even a need for the gt get this smoke most cars for 18 grand as i found one and get 32 mpg highway

  • Still can't do without that big V8 roar. Sorry. Not in a Mustang. :)

  • great car butvisiablity makes me buy something else

  • LOL, that new V6 has more HP than the old V8... 

  • Love the new mustang, but give the 4.0 some credit. Its the most bulletproof v6 ford has ever made. Plus having the 4.0 in my ranger, gets me from 0-60 in 6.9 seconds :P (that's hella fast for a truck that size)

  • well ive seen a vid on here where the car didnt make 305hp. is it because the sport package that this one has the 308hp? i know they change the ratio in the sport package so is there any way that this changes hp outputs on a dyno? i dont know anything about them but to me if it reads it gets up to speeds quicker than it may read something higher than the stcok gear ratio?

  • @kingdevo7 may have been running premo gas it will advance timing until it detects detonation

  • @kingdevo7 K&N has a pretty sophisticated dyno that can compute the actual output of the engine from what it's reading at the axel. A cheaper dyno will not do this, so you have losses from mechanical friction and rolling resistance that it will not account for. The most accurate way to test an engine is without it mounted, but that is not usually possible.

  • @kingdevo7 It's probably because one of the videos you watched was showing the amount of power being put down to the tires as apposed to this dyno which has correcting factors to show what hp is being made at the flywheel(what manufacturers rate cars at). For example my Focus is rated @ 143hp, but only puts down 125 to the tires due to drivetrain losses.

  • WHATS UP WITH THIS DUDE... FIRE HIM FFS

  • why ford dont say the tru power to there cars than lieing

    , they wanna beat the chevy , so they saying they got less power when they got more

  • 5.1 second 0 to 60? thats extremely impressive for a v6

  • This is a V6 not V8. 1/4 time is a little fast. Why dont they put the eco boost in this! Turbocharged V6.

  • 0-60 in 4.3, these things are always off

  • 미국젋은 사람들은 진짜좋겠다ㅠㅠ저런차를 소나타내지그랜져가격에 살수있다니 머 조립완성도야 그랜져에 비하면 떨어지겠지만 V8엔진도 올릴수있는 튼튼한차체,매력적인디자인,사운드, 그리고 저차와만들어갈 즐거운추억까지ㅠㅠ 진짜부러워진다

  • can someone give this guy a personality

  • @gmracing15 LOL

    

  • @gmracing15 i just care about the description about the car, not the man you gay

  • @gmracing15 Lolol!

  • This guy needs to narrate a golf game,not a Mustang review. He even made 305 HP sound boring.

  • Just drove a rental '11 'stang from Hertz and it's a mixed bag. Off the line, not so quick and the engine bogged for some reason. Handling is nice, turning radius is insanely small. The car must have had the 2.73 axle, as the motor was only turning at 2k at 82mph! Got about 30 mpg on the freeway driving in CT, less when I got on it. On the highway, there is lots of pickup with the revs up and the 6-speed auto giving those revs up nicely. Interior is 100x better than the Camaro I tried first...

  • Wait were those the numbers at the wheel or at the crank? If those are wheel hp numbers, I'm going to put a down payment on one tomorrow...

  • @twztd28 wheel HP i believe, id save up the extra cash for the GT though you get 435HP

  • @Pyrothos666 I had some ideas about a V6 Stang build project, which is why I wanted one. I could get the GT yes and maybe I will. But I like these V6's a lot for what they are. I'm going to wait till next spring anyway. No need buying another sports car for the winter, I just put my 08' Z away this past weekend. I'm guessing these are under rated just like the 5.0 is, every 5.0 owner I've talked to is putting 380-390 to the rear wheels, which is roughly 430-440ish at the crank.

  • they should seriously put the Ecoboost 3.5L V6 in the Mustang for 2013, it would be neck and neck with the V8 Camaro

  • Quick question people.. does the new 2011 mustangs and 2012 mustangs have an option to take out the front pony logo? I really like the car but I do wish there was some sort of option at the dealer to take out that logo or at lease replace it w/ that new smaller pony stripe on the side instead.

  • @xxNELLABOYZxx yes,they do have that option.

  • @996Ramirez howabout the little pony stripe ..or is only for the Premium versions ?

  • @xxNELLABOYZxx i think so, im not 100% sure, its mainly up to the dealership. You can just buy the grille or the pony and attach it yourself.

  • What's the top speed of this car?

  • Good jab on new mustangs! ford

  • regardless of the mpg would a 2010 or earlier v8 GT be a better buy than a '11 v6?

  • Ford NEEDS to put the Eco-Boost engine in the Mustang V6 it will help alot! The Taurus SHO has 365 HP in its six cylinder!

  • /watch?v=xcE-RDMJ_E4

  • It doesn't sounds  nice, my penis is no longer hard anymore :(

  • v6= chick car or gay guy car

  • @nate734 or someone who can't afford the GT and V-8....calm down

  • @nate734 what a fucking retard!

  • thats not a stock 2011 v6 mustang.... 1. it has double headers.. which v6s do not come stock 2. it also has duel exhaust.. which again.. they do not come stalk with.

  • @GetMercked The 2011+ mustang base model comes with dual exhaust "stalk".

  • @GetMercked incorrect. Look it up, duel exhaust is stock on the 2011's, same with the CAI, and 6 speed manual or auto trans. You can even opt for factory installed 3.31 gears. This 6 has more power than my old 8.

  • the classic 1970's body is alot cooler than the new models

  • does anyone know if they're going to put the ecoboost on the mustangs it be cool to see what it could do

  • @joel17320 they won't. they had toyed with the idea when designing this mustang, but they ran the numbers and they rivaled that of the GT, so they scratched it.

  • Hello, I am Mr. Monotone. I will be making your video as dull and uninteresting as possible today. It is my hope I can take something cool and make it boring. Thankyou for choosing Monotone, please enjoy your snooze.

  • .......this car is a monster...... i wish to buy this piece of art

    its an american's muscles , after i buy it, it becomes an Arab muscles heheheheh just kidding

  • Where did you get those rims!?

  • @puppyjam1 those are standard on the V6 Performance Package

  • too liget too quit.USAUSAUSA

  • Actually that's there pony performance package. Premium just adds bells and whistles

  • @Ahmed560 that is a premium package shown man.

  • does this v6 have the the performance pkge?

  • that was a lot of wheel hop when they did the burn out

  • But... This is a Mustang Boss, isn't he ?

  • @oO0XIII0Oo no its not

  • ^first car

  • Im a chevy guy but after watchin a couple vids of the new v6 mustang makes like stangs alot more, i forgot what show i watched on tv but it was a ss camaro that had 323 hp on the dyno. now that is a shame. needless to say im becomin a stang fan :)

  • There's no shame to own this v6! There's a supercharged one making 450hp! I think it's called the GTS Shelby.

  • v6 is great but man up and get the v8. its a muscle car after all.

  • is it bad that im starting to like the whine of a v6

  • @swordandsnipe yes very bad

  • I damn near went to sleep listenin to this guy

  • the thing is european have been gettin 300 hp out of engines for years now. And were just starting to get that. Cmon people

  • Ford should put the new Eco-Boost engine in the Mustang V6! The new Taurus produces 365 horses!

  • i find it rather funny how this mustang has Double the Horse power of the older 94' V6 mustang... but only like 60 extra ft Lbs of torque ;P

  • @CemetaryGatesML

    Torque is a function of displacement and compression ratio. The 3.7 and the 3.8L are fairly close in size... Power is the ability work over time. The 3.8L was dog-tastic revver. You could make it go.. but for just decided to make the engine more of a OHC instead of the push-rod design.

  • this dude is a fag

  • this dude is annoying as hell,

  • Having a Mustang with a V6 is like a Computer without a Hard drive...

  • @mofojobe

    308 HP? C'mon they are faster than the 10 GT's

  • @Tsaunders1307 true, but it sounds like a damn Accord

  • @mofojobe

    I dont have one but if you watch a start up vid they sound pretty nice

  • @Tsaunders1307 ehhh, im more of a fan of a Shelby :)

  • Damn this is nice

  • This mustang puts the last generation to shame ! This car wins all around , mpg , power , interior and style . Damn I want one now!

  • The opening AD.. Did he just say "FolksWagon" ? lol

  • get it. i have one and its amazing

  • I love this car so much... want..now..

  • it'll be a couple months before I can buy one, but when I finally get the money, I'm getting one. My brother's Chevrolet Camaro 1LT needs a competitor >=)

  • I hope they mean they adjusted for drivetrain loss at the dyno...because a car claiming 305hp to the crank isn't putting down 308 to the ground.

  • @REDLINE25 : I wonder the same. Car firms rate @ the crank, not at the wheels so the only way to really know with 100% accuracy is to yank the motor. 305 at the crank is probably in the neighborhood of 235-250 at the wheels. For them to assert 308 makes no sense because there's no really accurate way to measure drive line losses...for example, all else being equal the RWHP would likely be lower with an auto with the same factory HP rating. I call bullshit on their "knowing" it puts out 308.

  • ARG......I @%&! hate those stuped as hell toyota adds

  • i can give a better review this guy can suck my dick

  • @nikobellic163

    You want a guy to suck your dick? That's disgusting man! Keep that shit in the closet...We really don't want to hear about your fantasies.

  • @IrishChris1979 I KNOW MAN IM SO GAY RIGHT!

  • how can anyone possibly be THAT dull

  • Thank God 4 mute this guy sound like a claw clawing a chalk board

  • Godddd... leave the car testing to Top Gear please...

  • This car would be the reason why people would stop buying and driving FWD imports like the Si, Spec V, Speed3, etc. It smokes all of them in acceleration, makes more h/p and torque, and the mpg is the same or better. I never thought I would like a Ford product so much.

  • @postersurfman1 I agree!i Was thinking about getting a new Civic SI, but why when I can get this for the same price?

  • @thisisbenji90 The Civic Si is nice, but u get more w/ the 11' Mustang.

  • @postersurfman1 Yup! The only thing that worries me is the RWD in the snow...

  • @thisisbenji90 I've read that a car w/ 2 snows tires on the driven wheels whether FWD or RWD provide better traction than a vehicle w/ AWD that has summer or all season tires on all four wheels. Read some of the auto magazine reviews and test results to see what they said.

  • @postersurfman1 Not so sure if I completely agree with that, I agree about the FWD portion. But, rear wheel drive can get tricky going up hills from a stop even with winter tires (from experience). That's not going to stop me though, this new Mustang will be on my shopping list when I start looking at cars.

  • Your music takes away from the wonderful engines sounds!

  • This guy could take the fun out of boobs...

  • can anyone please tell me the 5.1 sec is that the manual or AT CAR?

  • i like both 2011 Mustang and Camaro , they look very good and pack a great power.

  • Ford's supposively going to slim down the next Mustang. :P

    It'll be even faster.

  • you can tell this guy has alot of passion.

  • @300pzl lol watch him in some piece of shit ricer bet hes suckin some jap dick. motortrend SUCKS

  • amazing 0-60time! 

  • hm driving it, it doesnt feel like 0-60 un 5 seconds... my malibu ltz v6 feels faster. but numbers dont lie i suppose. the mustang just feels so heavy.

  • @HisROYALbadnes thats funny, because the malibu ltz v6 weighs 300 pounds more than the mustang not to mention 50 less horsepower and torque.

  • @matt25675 thats exactly my point lol... the mustang should not feel as fat as it does when i drive something thats fatter. But then again thats my opinion. You should drive both and see, I may be the only one who feels this way.

  • dude u need to have some coffe

  • Comment removed

  • His monotone has a monotone!

  • Dude no offence, but stick to writing..you sound like the visine commercial guy.

  • technology is a bitch, my 93 formula(LT1 I/E CHIP 160 STAT 3.73's) beat my son's friends(i'm 54) 2011 V6 by a car length(dig and roll)i mean not bad for an 18 yr old LT1

    but V6's today are running what alot of older V8's were. time for the old man to hook up that 125 shot lol !

  • the guy talking is a pedophile I think

  • theres a fag in my school with a V6 mustang. Reason why he is a fag is because he says its a V8, Toolbag doesn't know that i can easily spot a V6 due to the pony in the back

  • @ChickenCritters you don't even have a car for yourself you poor bastard... you wish you had a v6 mustang queer :P

  • Comment removed

  • Hahah

    A chevrolet add for the Cruze on a mustang video

    Who's going with the Cruze now?

    what a joke

  • @newyorkyankeef4n1018 Don't just ad, CRUZE!

  • Those rims come with the" performance pack". It is a 1995 dollar option that adds those 19" wheels, summer only tires with better grip, a strut brace for the engine, stiffer suspension and brakes off last years gt, and a unique tuning for the stability control system for sport driving I think.

  • hûhu_pãsst_hïer_net_réïn_âbâ_ì­ch_biñ_sò_ëinsåm_wìll_jêmàñd_m­it_mîa_schréîbéñ

  • Are those rims a dealer installed option?

  • @synchroman22

    Thats what I was wondering, they look nice

  • great hd :D

  • ......thing sounds pretty damn good!

  • If I was in the market for a fun muscle car but wasn't wanting to pay for the gas this would be my car

  • People bashing v6 mustangs are idiots. There are more V6 mustangs being sold in the United States than V8. Most dealerships have more v6 mustangs for sale than v8. Not everyone buys a mustang to race. Most buy them because they like the way the car looks and feels when driving it.

  • Pause at 0:55 , theres the 2011 mustang GT in the background

  • how much would a glass sunroof detract from that 0-60?

  • Ford pulls out a steak dinner to the M/T staff & hands them an engineering ringer "example". M/T shouts "legit". I say the car they tested is as phony as a 3 dollar bill. Tuner videos on the Tube show after they put on their CAI's, mufflers and 93 octane tunes & chassie dyno their V6 car...maby they will come withing 20 foot lbs and 35 H.P. on the wrong side of M/T's car. Posts here with real deal stockers nowhere near 300 HP. The '11 Mustang V6 a cool car...just don't give me the jazz M/T.

  • @Longboy4 the video doesn't say if the 308 hp they measured was RWHP or Crank HP. It could be possible that they estimated the driveline losses with their 308 figure. If the Mustang was making 308 RWHP Ford would be advertising that it made 350 hp. Therefore MT estimate probably crank HP, other people with CAIs and tunes probably RWHP. 

  • though I agree they often give magazines ringers with every possible option lol

  • Shaq said this guy has a bad monotone!

  • horrible wheel hop...EFFF!!!! i want one boosted :)

  • this guy is the WNBA of car testing. SNORE!

  • @bigj7180 No kidding. Personality is NOT his strong point... lol...

  • my first car is V6.yahahaha

  • do you guys think that the premium package will make the mustang alittle slower?

  • hahah look that the wheel hop 53

  • To think I've been looking at a BMW 335.  Wow! Thank you Ford!

  • Actually my reference point is 1994 BMW 540i. That car ran 1/4 mile in 14.0 seconds flat and it was a four door sedan. Its engine was 282 bhp. The engineg caused probelms due to the alloy that is used to line the cylinders, but that car performed really good.

  • check my vid volvo 244gle with holden/buick 3.8 v6 ;)

  • not bad for a v6
