Don't care for leather seats but having the larger touch screen and better radio would be worth it.
Karnegis love you dog
Just upgraded my Sync3 OS and now have android auto on the big screen. google maps and pandora powered by my phone and displayed on the main car screen.
It would be nice if they had a radio delete option and have a nice aftermarket system put in.
It does have radio it’s Bluetooth
Same, I use to be all about leather but cloth is more comfortable.
Dude deserves more credit for giving us a no bullshit, straight forward video.
Answer is simple. If you're older, and want the bells and whistles? Get the premium. If you're younger, and plan on doing some modifications to the car? Base model is just for you.
PERFECT answer... because why buy the bells and whistles when you are only going to replace or not use.
krocialblack I’m young and I think the premium is worth 4K more
For me it’s a matter of you are buying the car for performance or buying it just bc you can. People who want it for performance and love the mustang then all you need is the base model, if you’re buying just cause you can then you want the premium so you can have a bigger screen and leather
I paid 4k for the premium and I'm a young dude. Some people just like having nice stuff regardless of age
@@TexasPoonTapa I’m young and got the base…I knew I was gonna replace the radio with the Tesla screen anyway. Only thing I really like is the lighting
Ford has to stop giving us small as screens and forcing us to pay higher for a damn bigger screen.
ok, buy the base then buy the big screen radio separately then slap it on.
Brayan Nexon thank you people forget you can do that lol
Well said
Brayan Nexon exactly they sell factory plug and play kits for $900-1300 for the sync 3 system.
A lot of those unnecessary options aren’t worth the 4K
Michael Cervantez Facts
Thumbs up for showing differences side by side
Your accent sounds like Muscle and tuner.

Steven ЯR Plot twist: It is Muscle vs Tuner
Steven ЯR Well I mean, it is a 435 Horsepower Bald eagle spittin' fire breathin' V8
Mr Арал sounds like Neebs
ABSOLUTELY! I love my heated and cooled seats and the 8" touch screen Sync 3 premium stereo. I drove off the lot with a 2017 GT Premium with the 6spd manual for $32k...
Ron Gravel Wtf where? Lmao I've never heard of that. No doubting you but where did you get yours at?
Carlos Flores probably after trade in
bearatts Good point.
I paid that much for my 2016 gt premium
Used
been looking for this video for so long! thank you so much!!
I just got a ‘17 GT Base Ruby Red like the one in your video but mine is base and it does have Sirius XM radio. I listen to it every day.
We just bought a 2016 GT Premium convertible about a month ago, same yellow as in the video. I couldn't be happier with it, it's fantastic and fun to drive. I'm not normally a fan of leather seats but the air conditioned seats alone are worth the extra for the GT Premium.
I’m thinking to buy one do u agree with me and what advice could u give me
Thanks for the information. Trying to decide what to get....
Thank you for making this video.
Great review. My GT Premium is the by far the most badass car I've ever had!
for some reason i dont understand why the proformance package base gt doesnt come with drive modes my learned that the if the car was going to be driven hard and taken to a church parking lot to do dounts (which i do both of these thing quite often) then get the proformance pack... can you make a video explaining why the proformace pack doesnt come with drive modes
That's exactly the video I needed thanks
good video, really helpful
i bought my 2016 base brans new for 27k after everything, i love my deep impact blue mustang, but the only thing that really hate and disapointed that ford doesnt offer to upgrade is that annoyingly tiny screen...ive seen tom tom and raxiom offer replacement plug and play, but even still they're both insanely expensive and very glitchy....
Bigger display, leather seats and just because I'm a geek the Pony projection looks awesome!
Excellent review
For me it's A) the driving mode switch and B) the leather. The rest I could do without although the projected pony is SUPER cool.
So helpful, thank you
I'm just here for the coyote sound
I hope you make more videos like these there is so many cars you can do this with 😁
Great vid 👍
I could only afford the base GT but I don't care it's still a mustang 5.0.
Obviously.
It wouldn't be a huge difference without it
Exactly!!!
You've answered all my questions I was just wondering what the premium and the basic half in it and you answered all my questions thank you very much appreciate the video I know the basic is going to be for me thanks again
The performance pack adds stiffer shocks, brembo brakes, etc, so there is a difference between the way the two cars drive. Also the premium shown here does not have the adaptive cruise control, just the regular one.
Does the base GT w/ no performance pack come w/ drag mode that ford has advertised or is that something completely different from the 4 drive select modes in the optional performance pack?
one look at that base center stack was enough of a turn off. i live in fl the cooled seats are great, premium ftw
I have a 2017 base GT and I feel like a peasant after watching this 😂
You also get the gauge pods and blindspot monitors on the performance pack premium
it's an easy choice for me after this video. The premium is absolutely worth it to me! thanks
excellent video
I only wanted a premium when I was looking. Needed the heating and cooled leather, the toggle switches, and the big radio screen.
Can you change the color of the speedometer in the premium? Thank you
Had the option between Premium or Performance Packs when I was buying my car. I saw no need for the premium, the performance pack on the other hand is well worth it.
Thoose Oil/Vacuum gauges is they only for US models? cant find any with thoose gauges in the dashboard..
i got a 2017 base ruby red gt and couldnt be any happier
Slab_House805 I got a 2015 ruby red premium GT lol red twins !!
I didn't realise I got the 2017 Mustang GT Premium til now I thought this was all stock, thanks for the info bro I appreciate it
Mustangs are so nice, especially if you can find a relatively new one at a used dealership, you can get one for a great price!
Do you all have any information on the 2018 base models yet?
I'd like to see Ford build a Mach 1!
They already built one in I think 1971 I guess
Careful what u wish for, or they might just build and suv
Bradley Zoshak lol Mitsubishi
Car Information Channel
I think he meant why don’t they make a newer Mach 1 like how in the 60s and 70s
Get a base model then build your own Mach 1 with aftermarket or specific Ford performance parts YOU HAND CHOOSE to install😎👍🏾
My brother has a challenger and they offer a 7 inch and a 8 inch screen. Both of the mustang screens look small. Do you know what size they are? Btw whats with the goofy looking mustang light under the mirror? That novelty would last all of 5 mins then I would be looking for a way to turn it off?
Does anyone know if all premium models come with those gauges at the middle of the dash? Or if it's certain trims?
How do i know if it has Performance Package?
Can you add heated leather heated seats like I saw in one of your older videos. I think it was Katz skin leather heated seats.
Is there no chrome Mustang symbol in the middle of the front grill on the base as there is on the premium??
I had a 16 base GT and now have a 19 GT Premium PP1 and yes it is totally worth it. But it’s up to each person.
Does it have rev matching system?
does the pony exist on the eu version ?
I had a base model v6 and traded it in for a premium gt and honestly just the interior alone is far beyond the base model the premium mustang in my opinion seriously is the best looking interior than a lot of other vehicles around its price range
do both have strut bars?
The performance pack gives it that different aluminum trim above the screen not premium
For the base if you want to activate sportmode push down the brakes and double tap traction control, it will prompt up.
Can I get the gt performance package with an automatic transmission?
Bought a used ‘15 premium GT and it’s totally worth it. The base and premium are so close in value used it’s a no brainer.
I just got my base GT for $29,400. I was surprised they came down so low from an MSRP of $35,500. Ruby Red Metallic Tintcoat. I don't mind the cloth seats and I plan on upgrading the stereo head unit anyway.
Kevin Young a local Ford dealership in my area just sold a brand new GT with PP for $29k
Samuel Chan buy 2 at that price
Kevin Young his month I got my GT Premium for $27k...
Where?
Bill Butler, I bought mine at Grieco Ford in Delray Beach, Florida. It was the Saturday during Memorial Day weekend. The key is you never let them close you on the first visit. You always walk out with their lowest price, call them the next day and tell them if they drop the price another grand you will take the car today! That's what I did and it fucking worked!
Beautiful cars!
How about ecoboost vs ecoboost premium is it pretty much similar to these features?
rain sensing wiper blades along with the adaptive cruise control is available on all Mustangs not just premium those two options are combined together
i wonder if you get the base model can you upgrade it to the premium if you take it to ford
I got the 2017 base pp triple black for 29k otd love it as my daily . got all the bells and whistles in my fx2 if we go on family trips.
Is the Mustang GT Deluxe the base model or a different model itself?
My 2017 GT is pretty much setup like that yellow one, sticker was around 37k. I kinda wish I had gone for the Premium, just for the larger screen, better audio and cooled seats. Then again I prefer cloth, and have other vehicles with heated seats for winter, not like the Mustang would be used in winter anyway.
I thought the performance exhaust came on all premium models?
thank you
Can you get the shaker pro audio system with the subwoofer added to the base gt. Or do you have to upgrade to a premium to get the upgraded audio system.
Premium has to be added. Lol they have to bundle things to keep it cheap
It's the "401A equipment package". That package cannot be added to a base model.
The 401A also adds memory seat adjustment, "easy out seat movement" (where the seat backs up when the car turns off) rear audible collision alert, as well as lane change monitoring.
The package is very well worth it. The subwoofer is nice, and the *radar collision avoidance is a life saver*.
You can get the big screen on the Base without upgrading to premium. Although it is like a $1,000 add-on.
What were the two gauges in the center of the dash that replaced the third air vent on the base model?
Joel Ground Those gauges come with the performance package.
oil pressure and vacuum gauge. (both basically pointless)
@@Sahadi420 an oil pressure gauge is pointless? Really? Must have grown up on dummy lights. If you're planning on driving that car like it's meant to be driven then that pointless guage can be the difference between a small money repair and a new motor.
Jeremy Senseney there is an oil light that will go off in my cluster if anything goes wrong with the oil.
The same applies to everything as far as levels are concerned. Do I need to constantly monitor my tire pressure??? Nope. Is tire pressure important??? Yup.
5 years late but i’m on a mustang addiction and obsessed with these
I love my premium GT! So worth the extra coin
The premium package is worth every penny. It will not only enhance your experience but your best believe you’ll make at least 2000$ of that money back when you sell the car. Comparing a mustang with the premium package and one without is a very nice bargaining tool in a negotiation and the fact that lots of people cheaped out and didn’t buy it makes the ones that do have them all the more desirable
How could I get one for
Can't wait til you guys do this with the 2018s. Show us a GT convertible.
Travfdy waiting on the gt 550
What year does the gt have the toggle switches?
2015+
A higher profit margin on the premium model?
I heard they are going to stop making the gt350 and gt500 is that true? What is the base price for those? I still miss my 1970 old school Mach 1
All models should have the mustamg logo up front regardless of trim. The shaker system with built in sub sounds superb though.
I really wish they offered the Sync 3 on the V6 models. Now I have to put the upgrade in myself. Looking at the Moddiction unit. I dont like the Raxiom one that AmericanMuscle sells.
I have a 2016 Base and love it ! Buy the Base and do upgrades yourself lot's to choose from out there . !
The stereo in the base is not bad at all . I don't need GPS or a Sat- Radio . The voice command works well.
If your looking for a new 5.0 Gt Mustang look to spend Base= 30,000 to 33,000 Premium = 35,000 to 42,000
Keep an eye out for the new GT500 and maybe in 2020 the Green Bullet to come back ..!! P.S The new 10- speed
is not bad at all.......!
Aye u called it
yo that celling light is seriously the same one on my 05
Love them wills.
wheels!
Why gitcher wills from lawyers when u can just gittem from Ford?
it's hard to see the difference in the wills, wish they just let you pick from all of the available options.
Planning on getting the premium all the way
I wish I could have had seen a video like this before i ordered my 2015 new... i still kick myself for being cheap and getting the base, still love the car though
Does the 2017 premium have the night time mode ? Ambient lights?
Like the cup holder and the dash lights ?color
Yes, it has the ambient lighting mycolor feature. If that is what you are asking...
Also not mentioned in the video was the extras added by the performance pack. Performance pack has: Bigger wheels and tires (Pirelli P Zero 275 rear 255 front), Strut tower brace, Brembo big brake kit front (6 piston calipers and larger rotors), bigger radiator, bigger sway bars front and rear, gauge cluster in middle of dash, 3.73 final gear ratio (manual only for 15-17), Springs with stiffer spring rate for better handling.
Premium adds a ton of weight to the car especially with the tech package. Leather seats with heat and A/C, more speakers and an amp. I laughed when he said the premium rear bumper was more aerodynamic. Not true, its just a two piece bumper that can be modified easier to accommodate dual tip mufflers.
Buy a base model and modify it to your taste. Premium is just for people who want an out of the box car.
BASE is good enough save money!!!I have a 15 base love it plus I got mine for a killer deal I just wanted the 5.0 motor
Love that red
I have a ‘15 mustang V6 and watching this, i wish i could get the GT. But then again i’m still 21 and this is my first car..
Dang good for you, in like 10 months, I might get 05
Does the 3.7 not come with premium options
No
Guys where's the best place to get a new mustang gt premium cashed out the cheapest dealer?
What is the difference between the gt performance package and the California special package?
Zach Young pretty sure the cs is just a body kit i might be wrong and it may include the performance pack but the cs is a body kit at the very least and the performance gives handling goodies
so the base gt does not have a sport mode?
got a used base model for 25k with 3k miles. chose the base as I was gonna upgrade all suspension and wheels. car went from driving like a light truck to feeling like a vette..fords suspension setup for these cars is crap. upgrade to eibach sportlines and koni yellows and put on some 305s in the back 275s upfront and now your cooking..
fernandizo yea ford dropped the ball on the new suspension
FastballFilms #DabsAffilliatedMedia the suspension is way too soft in the base model for that much power. its actually very dangerous
fernandizo I wouldn't say it's dangerous, but it's comfortable for cruising. The main advantage of stiffer suspension is the chassis reacts quicker, making it much more agile and responsive to the driver. Yes, Sportlines are highly recommended, but you can drive the car your whole life and not really need it
That Guy With the Pointlessly Long Username That You Are Wasting Your Time Reading Right Now . nice name..lol. when I first got the car I was scared to take turns in the mustang.. The first day I almost crashed it taking it out of a corner as the rear wobbled on me and caused the car to slip out way too far. after the stiffer suspension turns are linear the car stays flat through the turn with no vertical component. its night and day. This car should have come lower, with a stiffer spring and slighlty more dampened shocks.
When the day comes and I can get a car, I think this is on the list of "Top Cars." I've been doing some looking around and the average generation age of a mustang is 9-10 years and the 5th Gen came out in 2015, so I'll be pretty good. I'd like to customize one of these Premiums and talk to GReddy and to see if I could get a custom widebody kit. I'd get a carbon fiber APR Performance Splitter and Spoiler, and possibly longer down the road, consider getting some Giovanna or Forgiato rims in red or some variant. I'd almost definitely have to go with the Toyo R888 for track, and, after a little bit more saving, some Toyo Proxes RS1 tires. Oh yeah, and some performance upgrades. A Mustang with a custom body kit would be my ideal car, and I could possibly find some friends who would be interested in the idea of creating a track and drag racing team. I have a good name. "100.2 Octane" for the racing fuel mix of 70% 93 Octane and 30% Toluene which equates to 100.2 Octane fuel. And I would need some upgraded injectors for a turbo and some upgraded fuel filters for the gas. I'm going to invest in the stock market later this year with a few hundreds I've saved so I can make this a reality. I'm only 12, but this is my ideal perfect way to buy a Mustang.
Inspiration _ wow you have your entire life planned out
hey its been 5 years did u end up buying a mustang bro!
You can get the infotainment system without the premium version. I'd get a base GT with sync 3 ($2,000) and the performance package ($3995) and call it a day. It's $1995 more expensive than buying premium, but you get the stuff that you need.
Recaro seats and a 6pt roll bar from the factory is all I would prefer..all the other bells and whistles I have ... it's call driving skills.
My 10 year old Pontiac has heated seats and a bigger touch screen and leather seats.Stuff like that should be standard on a newer car like this.Plus why don’t any of the mustangs have a sunroof? That’s kinda odd that there’s no option for it.
Is there any performance differences
Mustang Rider between premium and base models? No
Paid 33k for my brand new GT/CS, money well spent!
and when the 2018 comes out your car will be worth 24-25k ; )
Matt Hartup I think the 15-17 is the one to keep. you can do more with modwise with it because its not DI. plus it looks way better than the droopy 18 face
Miguel Alonso direct injection
I got mine for 45k but I got everything I could of possibly get with it also got it over yr ago but checked online around my area still cost 40+k. The GT350 they where all around 70-90k not the R version just the regular version. Wish they would cost 52k like they advertise but that's just bunch of bs a used one with 7k miles cost 55k around me all new ones over fucking priced I just wish they wouldn't do a dealer mark up so fucking stupid.
So did I. Got it today and I'm one happy man
