Short answer, hell yes
Tried to make it short but yea that works too😂
@@Grizzly5.0 I still want quite a few s197’s that generation made me fall in love with mustangs and coyotes in general. Got to own a 13-14 deep impact blue gt in manual one day
@@prodbybigl yea i just love these body styles It looks more of a muscle car than anything other of the mustangs. Definitely worth it.
I wanna get a 2013-14 gt but idk if I want 1 with low miles or not. Higher mileage more risky but good maintenance and swapping some parts should help that
@@rickyyvf3717 if you can get a lower mile s197 you should go for it but I got mine with 60k and runs perfectly I’ve seen these cars go perfectly to 200,000 only this is the usual oil and clutch maintenance Ect
I think this gen mustang is the best looking one of all the generations. The rest…
Yea I think the same although I absolutely love the bumper and wide grill the 2020 GT500s have.
Hell yeah! Got my 2011 in 2013 and still in love with it
Keep it stock forget modding! It'll be worth more in the long run. Nothing says "been beath to death" like modding.
I don’t really care about selling it what’s the point of me holding on to such a beautiful car made for enjoying and modding. That’s my veiw on it at least if I had a lambo or koenigseggs im beating it till kingdom come lol
S197 are the shiz. I have an 11’ premium and love it. Best body style, easy to add some power. It’s an overall nice looking and fast car.
I definitely agree with you lol, there’s are by far my favorite style and just everything about these s197s are iconic
I got lucky with mine. Bought it from the original owner. He had ordered every option available from Ford at the time. Brembo brake package, short throw shifter, glass roof, saddle interior with heated seats. 19” wheels. 3:73 gears. Etc. I have since purchased a 13’ Boss. So I’ll be selling it, but I’ll miss it! Luckily the Boss is the same body style, but a lot more balls!
thank you, I needed this
No problem I’m glad I could help you out.
I bought my 2011 Mustang GT in 2019. I fell in love with it when I test drove it. I wish I would’ve waited and got a 13-14’ but I still love it!
Yours has a really badass stance with those rims.
I’m a new subscriber!
Thank you man I appreciate it and there’s just something about these s197s man I had the same experience wasnt even expecting to buy this car but saw it in the lot in the back and once I sat in it and turned it on I knew I had to own it😂. Thank you for subbing! Trying to make more content but unfortunately the weathers getting pretty bad due to the Canada wildfires
Better than c5 c6 vette? You tried both?
@50shades_of_memez bruh you in the wrong place this for 2011 mustangs, keep it moving😭😭
These motors are great i have a 3rd gen sitting around 29k miles always loved the top end cayotes have and the sound is just intoxicating
Sheeesh 3 gen? Have you done anything to it?
Nice ride and appreciate the video. I’m definitely looking at the pump and driveshaft now that you mentioned. I bought my 2011 a couple months ago with 99k, she’s looks great inside and out and sounds so sexy lol. It has some mods but all I can tell you is a intake, exhaust and some kind of tune as it has a svt sticker in the door jam. I definitely need to get a Coyote owner to go over it with me and tell me exactly what I got. I been having clutch issues since day one so I haven’t even detailed the engine bay and gone over it yet but after I get the clutch issue resolved I definitely want to start adding son bolt on’s and get her right.
Thank you I appreciate it and I’m sorry about the clutch issues hopefully you can get that resolved soon so you can start having fun and have buyers regrets after each modification part you buy!. Hope you have a good day
If you want to know exactly what I have done I have a list of my mods in my description.
Wow I love your car!
GTSE TWINNN!!!!
I am the second owner of a 2011 GT Kona Blue with a P1SC. Getting ready to install the Boss intake. Was wondering if you made an install video of that? Thanks.
I’ve never really gotten a comment or even just met anyone in real life with a Kona blue mustang so it was cool to get this, but yea unfortunately I’ve done a lot of the mods throughout the years and wished I would’ve started my RUclips channel a while ago but hopefully the boss Intake installation goes well🙏🏽
Beautiful car
Thank you so much🙏🏽
Great looking car and I love the wheel color with the dark blue 👍 You got my attention when you said the DW pump was one of your favorite mods I have to ask why that is? I also noticed you didn't have much to say about the boss intake was it not what you expected? I have a 14 with the same mods plus headers, gear and converter it's a fun car for now 😁👍 I subbed and showing support 😀
First starters thank you I appreciate the support🙏🏽 and the DW pump is a mod I wish I would’ve done first I’m full bolt on besides the long tube headers and the pump is the most recent modification I’ve done and after driving a few miles before wide open throttle I felt such a different in not only performance but also idle and throttle response it’s one of those mods I rarely hear about but it’s a modification I feel is one if the the most important support for any build. The 302 Manifold is a good add on and a good practice for car lovers that want more hands on when it comes to wrench work and when I first installed it and tuned it I definitely felt a difference and was satisfied, still to today I’m satisfied with the 302. And love to see a fellow 11-14 mustang owner these are going rare and just want to keep these types of s197 body styles alive.
@@Grizzly5.0 good to know thx bud!
@@Grizzly5.0 dw pump never heard of it
whats the cost do u recomend
need 302 intake with it
my fav mods Roush exhaust and ford racing short shifter
@@luke4701 I very highly recommend a DW pump or any sort of fueling system, adding all these sorts of mods without having enough fuel would definitely hold back on the power you can make. Parts like 47 fuel injectors require more fue
Always worth it
Beautiful car bro!
Thank you man, I appreciate it🙏🏽🙏🏽
Well done 👏🏼 👍🏼
Thanks for the demo and info 🏴🇬🇧
Thanks bro I appreciate it🙏🏽
@@Grizzly5.0 You’re welcome 🏴🇬🇧
Keep doing your thing man I appreciate it🙏🏽
@@Grizzly5.0 You’re welcome 🏴🇬🇧
This is one of my favorite Mustangs. I love the refresh they did here. When it had the 4.6 it was pushing out a now "puny" hp rating. Compared to the new Camaro's 6.2 425hp engine. Because of the lighter weight of the Mustang, reviewers praised the Mustang GT with the PP2 Track package vs the Camaros numb driving experience. The new Camaro didn't run from the Mustang like they thought it would. Especially around a track where the Mustang came out on top. This was obviously before chevy got serious about a track focused Camaro. Then Ford put the new 5.0 in the Mustang. Still not making as much power, the weight advantage gave it plenty to beat the camaro on the track. It was the first time for the new 5.0 and I don't know if they initially had any reliability issues. From what I remember it was pretty reliable out of the gate.
Wow I didn’t really look into that, thank you for sharing that!
@@Grizzly5.0 that's just what "I think" I remember how it went lol
Well, either way thank you for sharing that story 😂
🔥🔥🔥
🙏🏽❤️
Love my 2011 gt
Same here bro🙏🏽
Aye bro im looking to get a 2011 gt stick with 73k miles with one previous owner for 19k , i was gonna ask u think thats a good deal and how long do these mustangs usually last as in how long? And how hard is it to maintenance and how expensive, u are the perfect channel for my situation rn lol new subscriber
73 miles is pretty good I’ve got mine for 65k and now it’s at 75k and the only true maintenance I had was to replace the timing belt cover which leaked a bunch of oil(it was the previous owners fault bought a bad gasket) other than that I’ve only done work for Performance or cosmetics. These coyotes last quite a bit if you treat the engine and transmission right. I haven’t changed the clutch yet no slippage nothing wrong. If you take care of these it’ll run perfect even around 200k that I’ve seen. For now I suggest going for these s197s it’s a great bang for your buck and with any maintenance or parts it comes pretty easy and straight forward. Thank you for subscribing btw, I very much appreciate it🙏🏽❤️ if there’s any other questions just lmk
@@Grizzly5.0 fuck yeah broi appreciate the quick response
No problem bro🙏🏽 keep doing you
I believe any year mustang is worth it at anytime. You gave me an idea for a video. Thanks bro. I have a 06 v6 if you wanna check it out. I get alot of hate and idk why. It’s one of the cleanest v6s I’ve ever seen
Good luck on the video man! I’ll definitely sub and keep an eye out for that and your honestly true about any year, they all have different things but i appreciate and love any stang build….except the Mach E I’m sorry idc what anyone says😭 that’s the only model where I’m like…..why?
@@Grizzly5.0 yeah I don’t like the Mach e either 😂
my best mods
Roush exhaust sounds great
ford racing short shifter go through the gears like butter
I have a 2012 gt convertible love it
Yea I’d go with those to, is it the one on your profile picture?
@@Grizzly5.0 yes
Niceee
Any problem with the convertible top
@2ktalk no not really
How much and how hard was the boss assembly under the hood
It was like $300 for the boss and I would say it took like a hour to install it’s pretty straight forward I would say do it in the morning when the engine is cold and making sure you have a lot or rags for the fuel that leaks out whenever you pop the fuel rails out
I want one but I heard the chinese transmission are crappy
Yea mean these MT82s are like glass but I heard the automatics are better if your worried about the transmission. So for after 3 years of ownership I haven’t had grinding or anything just changed the trans fluid couple times and no problems
So it's not too risky to get one with a mt82? My only concern is forking over extra down the road for a repair/replacement
The MT82 is perfect when treated right of course like any other transmissions when taking a pretty big beating when either tracking,drag racing or anything hard it can wear out pretty quickly without doing slight modifications to the transmission, as a daily and cruising it’s a perfect and well equipped transmission. There’s a joke amongst car enthusiasts that the MT82 is a “glass transmission” because of people abusing the gears. So as long as you treat it right the only repairs along the road is the usual with all transmissions (just from my knowledge personally and from what I’ve heard)
@@Grizzly5.0 appreciate it! That helps a ton
I still enjoy my 2011 GT, the transmission is fine in these, but you can at times have the lock out when shifting under spirited driving. The key to shifting during spirited driving is that you can not lazy shift, you have to shift with purpose, otherwise you'll get locked out or grind.
@@Wooley689 yes I go through the same thing and good tip to keep in mind for those that struggle with those mt82 transmissions
Get a better shifter and push clutch all the way in it'll be fine.
Hello Steven😂😂😂😂😂
What was the mpg before the mods?
I honestly don’t pay attention to that but I’d say after the mods I’ve done it’s gone down slightly, at least for me I’m sure it’s different for other people but there wasn’t a big jurassic change for me
God I want my 2012 back 😭😭😭 I love your wheels
Thanks man i appreciate it😂 what you got now? Go get your 2012 back 🤣🤣
@@Grizzly5.0 You’re welcome and a 2009 Hyundai Genesis sedan..had a baby and wasn’t comfortable putting him back there so I sold it 😭
@datboydre that ain’t bad tho those genesis can look very nice and ahhhh ok I understand now😭😭😭
theyve gotten so damn cheap im leaning this way. 302 manifold, good intake, longtubes, tune on 93 or e85, and easy 425whp from what ive seen. And only 3600lbs instead of 4100+ for a Challenger
Coming from a 2007 mustang gt convertible that got totalled last October yes the 2011 mustang 5.0 is worth it I loved my 07 but my 2011 is better in every way looks and performance
I’m sorry to hear about your stang being totalled, the 2011-14s are probably the best body style and just best mustang out of all the years…except for the 1969s
@@Grizzly5.0 it's all good I was sad to see it go but I will admit I should have never gotten a convertible to begin with that was the one thing I hated about the car other than that awesome car just not enough power but my 2011 more than makes up for it no more leaky top and the coyote motor is just amazing
Watching hella videos for this model lol, my 2011 mustang gt with 29k miles and one owner is shipping in from Atlanta Georgia to the bay area lmaoo
Ouuu congratulations, welcome to the crowd killer club 😭 where’d you get it from?
K chulo esta tu mustang karnal soy el k te acaba de saludar en el carwash🫡
What suspension work have you done?
SR Lowering Springs and also Whiteline sway bars/control arms and a BMR Adjustable Panhard bar
@@Grizzly5.0 Thank you!! I see these have a 1.5 drop all the way around. Do your rear tires poke a little and if so with this drop do you get any rubbing?
Nope everything works perfectly and i have 1.5 inch spacers to give it that poke front and rear no issues there either
@@Grizzly5.0 That's awesome, your mustang looks awesome. I have 305/35r/20 on the rear and want to go with the eibach pro kit which have a 1.5 inch drop in the rear but I I don't want to deal with any rubbing. Thank you!!
305s? Sheeesh😮💨😮💨 love that set up and thanks man I appreciate it 🙏🏽
what make and brand are those wheels?
They are downforce wheels, it’s a LMR package
I would get the 2014 GT
Same here bro I love the taillights on the 2014
Can it be a first car and what about daily driving it?
I daily my mustang that’s why I tend to keep it fbo for now it’s enough for the street and have fun with, I however don’t drive it in the snow ofc with the right snow tires and weight in the trunk it’s perfect for snow as well. For a first car it’s probably not The Best unless you’ve dealt with or are able to handle horsepower because these and like other cars of this nature give a lot of adrenaline rush so if you can handle that I’d say go for it with these mustangs, best car I would recommend!
@@Grizzly5.0 Thanks!
@@Grizzly5.0so your basically saying don’t get nervous with speed or straight up don’t push the gas?
Up to you how you talk what I said at the end of the day I just said what I thought of the top of my head I like speed many like to keep these as daily’s with no rough driving
Why change the fuel pump if you're NA ?
E85
More fuel
I think any mustang is worth it at any time
quit putting mods in like this and a 2011 will last forever
Still to expensive for. Nearly 15 year old car
50 year old cars and even 10 year old cars be too expensive too so….
@@Grizzly5.0 yea, I live in Florida and you can’t find many below 25k.. you can get an s550 for that much 2015 model. I’ll keep looking
" It " could mean anything . Worth what ?
Worth getting worth buying idk you fill in the blank
@@Grizzly5.0 You made the video , not me .
@guynoir4733 you asked about the video, not me .
@@Grizzly5.0 I did , probably shouldn't have . I have a 57 Cadillac , is it worth it ?
Mine is the shiz
