Review this car: 2016 Ford Mustang 5.0 V8 GT Premium

At the age of fifty years, the Ford Mustang has it all: an object of fantasy, a movie star, a tuner's dream, a symbol of status, needless to say, does not need an introduction. However, this latest Mustang marks the biggest change to the car and the horses from one generation to it, could be reacquainted required. And it's not just because of the new car a long beat, but changing what Mustang and successfully brought into the modern era. Forget everything you know about a pony car. History must be rewritten here.

Basing everything on the cover though, is hard to say that this is a new chapter of the story Mustang. At all angles, it is instantly recognizable: pure muscle car with attitude angular design and squat. However, due to pay homage to a long history, such as massage weight version of the previous model of the all-new design. However, it has been tweaked and sculpted, the modernization of the screen while removing some retro flavor.

While the exterior is still relying a little on the storied past Mustang, the interior of eliminating traces of a tendency for cheap plastic models. This is a great improvement in the design itself makes for good viewing. And then, you settle in and start poking around, pay attention to well-finished plastic and crisp control. brushed metallic trim that runs the entire length of the dashboard is a great touch as commemorative plaque on the passenger side. Only two complaints here: The first is the sheer multitude of buttons. This can disorient the new driver, but after a few days, it was easy enough to adjust to it. The second is the style switch switches on the center console. Signs that are too light means you can not tell what each switch is on during the daytime.

Make no mistake though, the best interior Mustang ever, and this is something also reflected in ergonomics. More comfortable seats than the support and positioning is more cruiser than a sports car so it was nice to eat a mile easily. Although bulge hood, easy to slot it around traffic though a small mirror did rob slightly rearward visibility. Fortunately, rear parking camera helps during parking maneuvers complicated. Steering fell right into the hands and so is the other controls.

Surprisingly, the V8 engine is not the best thing in the Mustang. Squirt throttle to have your insides rearrange still addictive, but the magic is the way the entire chassis package deal with angles and bends. steering is much better than before. It fit firmly and more directly while attached to a suspension that does a lot more work than just point the wheel. It feels planted and stable while actually building a two-way communication between the road and the driver.

Best of all: the suspension has been cured Mustang distaste for lumps. It's hard to overstate how much independent suspension on all four corners meaningful experience. Finally, you do not need to wait for the chassis to settle before entering a turn. You do not have to worry about going to the rumble strips while the car was jumping around helplessly. You can even turn on the power of uneven pavement without the risk of losing control. Finally, the wheel can put all the power down. There is little need to tiptoe through the corners. Finally, having all the fun and confidence to let loose.

There is still a lot you can say, but the point is this: it's not just a new chapter in the history of Mustang; The book is entirely new. Not only is it great in a straight line as a muscle car should be, but it really handles like a proper performance car. And for P 2999000, it is a steal considering the level of performance can dish out. For the money, no one can touch the Ford Mustang. Even the grounds.
