I like the s550 because it is a pretty good drift platform
Foxbody, its just a smaller muscle car. With great loookkkksss
that's hard but maybe a late model sn95 or one of the classics
Crown Victoria, if you even consider it like a Mustang. They are still cheap to find in my area
Why didn't you call this vid: "which Mustang is best Mustang?"?
I had a 1976 Mustang II when I was in high school (98/99) it was bright orange and did 0-60 in about 3 miles!
3 miles😂💀I’m weak
Yeah but how long did it take to go those 3 miles to reach 60mph is the real question, my guess…. 17 days
you guys posted this a day after i started wanting a mustang for my first car
🕵🏻♂️
And they posted it when I’m about to buy a mustang in the next couple weeks😳
Go get it dude!
Vasco Dundev Everyone has there own preferences so it’s understandable.
Be responsible if you get one. They can be scary if you aren’t familiar with RWD and power. And they can be an eye magnet, from eyes you want to eyes you don’t want
this isn’t “so you want a new edge mustang” but this will definitely do🥲
honestly i hated the 2015 mustang design,looks like a jag up front
@@aestheticswim3397 the facelift looks better. I like them quite a bit now.
The S197 still my favorite tho
@@aestheticswim3397 really I think the s550 is a pretty clean looking stang style
@@sinatra9179 i guess the larger grill does make for better air flow
😂 same homie, still a great video tho
The 2005-2009 mustang gt for me has the best design basing it on the 65-70 model with it's half classic and modern look.
Agreed, you just got to give them a chin lip, a better hood, lower it a bit,tint,& wheels !! Oh and for GT owners like myself…EXHAUST !!
I think, barring the GT500s or KRs or whatever with the more angled grill and special body kit, the 05-09 is the ugliest post-Fox Mustang. 10-12 front with 13-14 rear is the pinnacle to me.
My favorite will always be S197 for the looks and performance you get in V8 car. I haven’t really warm up to the S550’s yet. I love the fox bodies and new edge Mustangs as well. It’s just something special about the S197 that does it for me. Plus the S197 is very reliable.
Yes! I have an '08 and a '12. Very reliable. I don't beat them up. No problems at all.
Bought an '09 Bullitt 4 years, no issues at all. Daily driver. And I do push the engine every now and then (especially when I pull up next to a Challenger or Charger at a light). 🙂
Yes s197 and foxbody.
2013-2014 are my 2 favorite modern years
Agreed their my childhood mustangs
I got one :)
@@mediumfry1434me too
Lol when they knew that the Mach E isnt considered a mustang and it isnt included
Why isnt it actually a mustang?
@@ahmadayyad3995 Cause its basically like a tesla in mustang clothing and it doesnt honor the true essence of what a mustang is
that's for soccer moms
@@ahmadayyad3995 it shares like 60-80% of the chassis with the escape, and the rest is all new save for the badges.
It’s a mustang in name but not really a mustang. I’m sure everyone knows since it’s been repeated, but Ford wants to make Mustang it’s own mini-internal brand. Same with Bronco, which is why there are technically 3 different bronco’s and a bronco with a truck bed is in development as well. Almost sort of like RAM is it’s own mini brand within fiat/Chrysler
New Edge is the go to for me. They’re the best looking affordable Mustang by far.
Yup. They’re amazing. They’re the best looking mustangs too, and sound great.
I'd be right there with you but the SN95s and New Edges easily have the worst interiors of any Mustang generation. Unless its a Terminator, I couldn't see myself owning one for long.
@@Trussme96 I daily one, what’s so bad about it? Other than the size (I’m 6’3”) I don’t have any problems with back pain, dash cracks or anything like that.
3v handles better looks better is faster more comfortable and costs less
@@Nonya_Bidness01 Looks better? Nah man,
The preface lift looks chubby & unathletic. They pretty much require the GT/CS bumper or GT500 Front Clip to look good 🤷♂️
For me it’s the Terminator Cobra.
I may be a bit biased but the styling of the 13-14 s197 IMO is the best looking Mustang ever. Something about the body lines on that car is just gorgeous
My favorite is the 05-09 Mustang GT or GT500. I just sold my 2018 Mustang GT and now I’m looking for another s197.
Same. I grew up seeing that thing in my fav movie transformers I luv it so much
It’s crazy you guys took this video out today because just last night I signed the paperwork for my brand new Mustang Performance Pack 2 🤟🏽
If it's a 5.0, do yourself a favor and put some premium in next chance you get, it's a 12:1 motor and it picks up like 50 ft-lbs and 20 horses on premium versus regular.
Swing it bro
Yeah, it’s a GT premium pp2
I think the s197 generation was the best because it saved the muscle car. Dodge and Chevy saw what Ford did with the retro design and brought back the challenger and camaro which wound up restarting the horsepower wars
New edge gang WYA
Wadduuuup
Yooooo
Proudly with a 40th Anniv V6 I'm planning to build up to go 500 wheel & 175 mph at least one day.
@@xoulmannn you better build your bottom end. 500 on stock internals will blow up
@@mikethelegend1101 Oh yeahhhh .... I have to build up trans, drivetrain, suspension, etc.
I bought myself a 1969 Mustang Fastback & I can’t deny it’s the best looking car on the road in general
New Edge GTs are my favorite for a number of reasons. They're everywhere and affordable (slowly becoming the "new foxbody"), the 4.6 2V is indestructible, IMO the best sounding (you can make these things sound like anything, old school chop-chop to crispy coyote-esque sound), they're sleek and stylish, and if you slap a Cobra blower on it you'll gain some serious power. Then again, I may be biased as a Crown Vic owner.
Im literally in the same mindset as you lol.
have a crown vic, and looking into buying a new edge
welp. finally got my new edge lmao. love it
@@mexicanomniman Heck yeah. Ironically enough I got an LS1 Camaro as a weekend car not too long ago.
S197 Classic look aggressive feel. Yet modern technology
Modern tech? Don't know if a solid axle is considered modern tech.
Yeah and the interior is modern for the 80's🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@4touchdowns1game29 that is what is cool about the s197 ...it is old school having v8 rear drive solid axle car and it's old school in its look and feel too but is pretty modern in many areas too. It's like the perfect medium between new and old...I love my 07 gt500 the interior isnt that bad on it for what it is. The gt500 does have a nicer looking interior over normal mustangs of the time.
I am biased towards the New Edge being the most bang for your buck mustang. I personally own a 2003 Cobra but even the cheaper 2v’s are capable of astounding numbers with the right supporting mods (not to mention cheap to buy and easy to find parts for). To say that the newest mustang is the best is kind of a sell out because of course in terms of quality, newer is better but if you’re looking for affordability, reliability, fun, easy to work on and modify yourself, you’re not going to look to a 2020 GT500.
Make a video called "which f-body is best for you" and talk about the LT engines and stuff
I've owned a 2003 gt convertible, 2012 gt, and currently have a 2018 gt, and the '18 is by far my favorite of the three, although I have a soft spot for the '03 as it was my first one.
What about the '19 and '20 mustang? Is it any different from the '18??
@@mike_zilla8604 Not much probably, I mean their might be some slight differences, and color options.
I have a 03 new edge and love it
I'm still a foxbody guy. I guess it's where I grew up as a kid seeing those things dominate the streets.
I personally like Vaughn Gitten Jr's 1969 RTR-X mustang. When I think of Vaughn Gitten Jr, I think about him drifting a modified mustang. He was also the narrator of "Need For Speed Shift 2: Unleashed."
2013 2014 S197 is the best 🙌🏻
NO 🧢
Don’t forget the 2009
Facts
2008 mustang gt
🙏🏼 preach
My 1st car is the 94, I love it, the 5.0 is super easy to work on and the 90s aesthetic is awesome
99/01 cobra’s were the first year that a mustang saw an independent rear suspension not just 03-04 cobra’s.
2019+ PP1 with 3.0 whipple Super charger. 720WHP and honestly a great daily!! The Rev matching when down shifting and magnaride is a plus too. I drive it everyday and actually enjoy driving to work!
I know many people didn't like it, but I've always held a special place in my heart for the Ford Mustang II (especially the 1975-1978 Ghia version)! I selected those years because of the vinyl roof with the opera windows (which weren't available in 1974)!
Day 1 of asking myself to do my virtual schoolwork instead of watching Fitment Industries
Dude fat vibe
@@dannylange6733 ?
Ive been actually looking for a weekend car so this is great!
I would have to say that my personal favorite is the GT350R. It may not be the fastest but it is an amazing machine. That NA fpc V8 and 6 speed gearbox are definitely a fun combination.
I'd love to have a gt350r. Amazing amazing drivers car...same with the boss which is an older more raw approach to the same type of thing.
Getting a new edge gt on Saturday 🔋 🙏
Awesome! I love mine. It's hard to beat for the money!
-Sean
Fitment Industries *knows i’ve been looking at mustangs and makes this video at the perfect time*
I guys in the US are lucky u know, where I live seeing a mustang or any muscle car is really rare as they are expensive af here. For me, any mustang would do
Idk where you live but I'm sure you get some cool cars that we don't get in america. If ur australian, the holden ute, and if you are european, any car under 4000 lbs will do
@@brysonkuhn3290 You think Rodrigo Gomez is from Australia?
@@Chrislav7 saw the username afterwards and realized probably not lol
@@brysonkuhn3290 😜😂😂
Side note, good call with the UTE!
Same. Importing American car brand cost as much as a car. Literally no one drives ford's chevy's cadilacs etc. here
My favorite is SN95 Cobra 96-98 4v was where the Ford out performed the GTs 2v and 3v and came the Terminator and finally the coyote and voodoo variants etc.
I used to like new edges and s197s but i settled for a sn95 and after owning i prefer the smooth sleek lines so much more than the other chunkier body styles, also the weight savings are nice over the s197
1978 Ford Mustang II Mach I. It was my second Mustang as a kid. First with the 302 and a manual transmission that we swapped in. The engine bay was open enough for us to later shoehorn in a moderately built big block that lead to the destruction of the diff. We swapped in a diff from an Aerostar van. I learned a ton with that car, both driving and repairing. I want another one.
---Just my two cents.
Whichever is your first one will probably be your favorite. I love my S197 2014 GT. It's a manual, and the car I learned to drive a manual in. You fall in love with the things most people don't know, and for me that was the engine, the ruggedness, and the feeling of muscle instead of sport.
Bought a 2020 mustang in March. Now in this crazy market today, I can’t find one in my local dealership…
I have a 97 GT, it is slow but the sounds that the engine makes is always great.
Awesome! Great start to the new series. Can't wait for more
just picked up a 98 Cobra.. fell in love with it
Im a 98 v6 stang ownerr for a year i was 16 when i bought the car now im looking forward to upgrading to a new edge gt totally worth it
Currently have a 2000 GT convertible and a 18 GT, love them both a lot and you can’t go wrong with any mustang!
Should have talked about which ones are the easiest to “stance” but heres a short summary.....
S550: very easy to get fender to lip fitment and can buy off the shelf parts for decent camber.
S197: impossible to get fender to lip fitment in the rear thanks to the solid rear end and no easy irs swaps.
79-04: gotta notch the frame in the rear unless you swap in a 99-04 cobra irs which at that point its very easy to get good fitment.
Which one has the best Vape holders? And a hook for my Snapback?
05 mustang gt , 3 years with it, taught me alot , tons of compliments from young too old, couldn't be more proud
Always a good feeling when you get the nod from everyone. 👏🏾👏🏾 -Edgar
Even though I own an s550 my favorite one beside mine are the 2003 and the 2014 models! ❤️❤️
Just one minor correction, the GT was available for 87-88 with T-Tops as I know this because I had an 88 GT with T-Tops. 😀
In terms of modern cars, the 2013-2014 (I got one lol) and 2018-2021 models are by far my favorite. My favorite classic is the 67-68 fastback and 71-73 mach 1
Buying a 2001 mustang Thursday and I couldn't be more excited
i love this series, it's awesome and super interesting
94/95 Mustang GTs are my fave. Used to drool when I saw them what I was in highschool. Then the 99 models showed up, and a guy across the road from the school had one and I was in love. Still have a soft spot for the mid 90s ones though.
I’m 32 & have always wanted a mustang since High School. The 2005-2008 year models.
i kinda agree with his decision of the s550 mustang is the best buh my favorite mustang is the 2013 mustang boss 302
I've loved mustangs since a was a kid and keep trying to figure out what mustang I want to buy since I was 10 and obviously broke and eventfully figured I didn't want one anymore until I recently bought my first mustang (08) and first manual transmission after getting bored of automatics. Now I'm hooked again and want more 'stang!
*My personal favorite is the Foxbody. Its fast but not too fast and you still get that sweet 5.0 soundtrack.*
Just a slight correction the 03 cobra was not the first year for IRS suspension on a mustang all svt cobras between 99-04 had the IRS this includes the 2000 cobra r.
Fox bodies are hot right now, but buy your clean sn95s before they get hit with the collector tax
Facts
It’s begun in California 🤦🏾♂️i could find them for 3k max now it’s starting at 6k
I have a 88 fox body lx with a 5.0 motor and just saw a cobra sn95 for sell I just closed my eyes. Like I don't need another one right now 🤣
I respect that you put a 85-86 mustang gt in the thumbnail
The turbo gt is the legacy car to today’s ecoboost mustangs. The Svo was an awesome car (got to drive a 85/5 which is the highest horsepower 2.3 turbo foxbody 205 hp) avoid 79-82 because the fuel lines give out a catch fire 🔥
New edge was my first car, will alway have a spot in my heart ❤️
I’m so glad I have an S550 for the reliability, looks, and modern aspects but man I really want a fox body but people selling notch’s have way too high of prices haha
Verts seem to be fairly reasonable, I got my hands on an ‘85 loaded with everything (and most of the added features actually worked) for $5k even, with 47k on the odometer (might be 147k, but if it is, it’s definitely right for that mileage). They’re supposed to be a little wobblier than their full-roof counterparts, but I don’t notice it much.
Its crazy yall just released this the day after I bought my Honda cobra.
🤣
IMO Fox Body,especially the Convert Saleens of early 90's with the high mount center brake light!I LUST for ONE
That was the most vague list I’ve ever seen. Great on the breakdown by generation. Still have no clue which model year was preferred by mod ability or price. Thanks for trying.
I own an S197 auto... Should I get another S197 6 speed or pony up for an S550 with that 10 speed Auto? I hear so many great things about that transmission.
SN95/new edge for me. It's a blank canvas. Be the artist , your tools & parts are your paint.
Loved the video
2012 boss 302 is my all time fav mustang.
The terminator is a close second
I have a 2020 GT buy my fav years are the 03-04s and the 13-14s
Thanks for the feature! Love the video!
more on my 67 mustang @that_black_67 on Instagram
I got a 2010 GT
Love the body style and quality, plus the 4.6 is really strong and sounds sexy.
The Mustang that's right for me is the one I own, a 2016 GT convertible. Of the previous versions, I do like the S197's but the version I think it would be coolest to own would be a 1966 with 289 and four speed manual.
Buy before it goes up in value. I might be looking for one too
I have a 2002 Mustang GT 4 years with her and 169,000 miles on her. And I did a lot to her. Just rebuild the trans and engine put alittle more power and I’ll be good, not done but good!
Sounds like a money pit...

Fitment industries can you do a video about a
1994 thunderbird super coupe
I recommend any s197 :). I have a 2006 v6 and I have no complaints
Mustangs are so cool. My favorite look is the 10-12 front with a 13-14 rear, followed closely by the 15-17, then the 67-68 as the best classic, and SN95 and New Edge tie for 3rd with the Fox body as a VERY close 4th. 3rd and 4th place also kinda depend on mods, though. Some Fox builds I like more than a New Edge.
I always will have a soft spot for the 99-04 mustangs. I had a friend who had a modified cobra. After 3 speeding tickets he sold it. I miss that car. I had an 99 v6 explorer. It seems like forever ago but I graduated in 2019
Saving up for my 3rd mustang: 1994 mustang GT
i like the fox body fastback and the red Cobra R
What takes 5 days for you guys to process an order?
You should do witch best generation is best for you on the the Dodge Charger excluding the hellcat 2015 that’s a whole other beast I been waiting for one of those can’t ever find videos on the 7th gen like it just been forgotten, it’s time of existence was cut short ...
I'm torn between and sn95 cobra, 2015 gt premium, or foxbody notchback
Since the day i saw rhe new edge mustang i was in love with it. Imo its the best generation but idk im just biased since i grew up liking it and everyone i knew around me had one😂
Can y’all do a so you want a Lexus is350 next?
NGL yalls SO YOU WANT A S550 MUSTANG video had a bit of an effect on my getting my 15 over the 14 TYVM
I feel guilty saying this as a die hard Honda fan and civic owner but I’ve always had a soft spot for the foxy body
I love my little civic but seeing mustangs slide around screeching really gets me
Well i already have a 67...and i love it. Just wish it had that gt350r 5.2L and 10spd in it
Kids. Gave my 09' to my daughter and looked at new stangs, then went and bought a real mustang - 67 coupe for daily driving, happy i did 😊
I have a built 400 wheel 2018 ecoboost 6 speed manual and a manual 2017 gt perfomance pack 3 bone stock. Love both cars equally even tho they both the s550 body style but gotta say no other feels like the GT
I recently got a 69 coupe and honestly with older cars you kinda have to figure some stuff on your own.
Fox body. Legend! Perfect size, Hatchback with Kicker box in the back. T-tops and a 5.0 what more can you ask for.
90s and early 00' were hard for Mustang lovers
Yes finally some knows about the 87 t top with the updated headlights its a rare car
74-78 are underrated but the fox mustangs are seriously awesome.as are the 94-04(sn95/s197)platform are awesome too.
There will always be a special place in my heart for the 2014 mustang, the last “muscle” body style imo
I got one :)
I have a 98 Gt with rod knock. Classic sn95 stuff.
Those 10r80s GTs are insane. Especially with a tune
Shit the stock engine with stock tune will pick up power on premium on the 18+ because the gen3 is 12:1
Longtubes and E85 they run hellcats hellcats lol. 10R80 is a cheat code.
