Whether you want to relive your youth or are just looking for an affordable and livable sports car, the Mustang can grant your wish. Power-mongers who seek bragging rights to the world's most powerful
If you want your sports car to have a more sophisticated nature – or an independent rear suspension – you might want to steer toward a European contender. If you regularly need to carry mo
Though it still uses an old-fashioned solid rear axle, the 2013 Mustang performs well on twisty roads as well as open highways. What's wonderful about the Mustang is you don't have to spend a bundle to have fun. Even a base coupe with the 3.7-liter V6 and 6-speed manual transmission is a kick. And keep in mind, "base" here means you get an engine sending 305 horsepower to the rear wheels.

"I had many cars in my life, most of them rear wheel drive, manuals. The Mustang GT however was a big disappointment regarding regarding reliability. Yes, I admit, the engine sounds good, and it is fun to drive, but I had to get three new pair of breaks within 20.000 miles. With the same driving style I got 100.000 miles out of the BMW M3 before the breaks were done. The quality of most other things in the car is also on average poor. (AC not working after 50.000 miles, water coming in the inside and so on..... You might think I just don't take care of the car, but that is not true either.... Just bad experience, and it was definitely my last Ford."

"So happy that Ford retro’ed the Mustang. Brought the “Got have it Green’” 2013 GT 5.0 and already have 17,000+ miles!!! Great handling but I do wish that they address the under-steering? Camaro has, so I hope Ford hears our wants/needs from the field but I still stand behind Ford!!!"
