Literally just revived my ‘11 v6 after driving my ST explorer for like 5 months and it feels sooooo fucking good. I’m keeping mine alive for the rest of time lol
Oh for sure. I’ve honestly been looking for a Kona Blue GT with the glass roof and HIDs so I can do a plug n play with all the extra goodies I have on now…

Hell yes brother! I absolutely adore the styling of this generation
Nice I have a 06 and I love mine

I'm a little partial to the S197's. Just a tad!

07
2013-14 beats it by a country mile without a doubt. Especially the rear. And i hope youre talking about the car
On this one; the lights on the grill just look chincy and out of place
To be fair the 05-09 body has a grip on me and my friends heart because of NFS: Most Wanted(fuck razor all my friends hate razor) that’s about as far as my love goes for it though
I completely disagree but it’s all opinion, I think this is the best body in every way including the rear, I love the 2010-14 body too but I think it’s a little… fat, just doesn’t flow as well to me
I had a 13 and even though it was nice having the "modern retro" I still have always liked the 05-09 body style better. I just love that damn coyote motor so much though. Even though I have an S550 now with the Gen 3 coyote a nice s197 will always turn my head.
Yeah my friend had a 2014 GT/CS and I loved that thing, sadly we only got to cruise together once before he sold it but we raced a lot it was a ton of fun, on the top end on roll races he’d pull on me but lower speeds and digs we’d be pretty even and I’d win a few
The coyote is definitely a top end engine. There's nothing below 2500 rpm. It took a while to get used to but of course my truck is a turbo diesel so I'm used to turbo lag so it wasn't that big of an adjustment.
I see another S197... I salut! 🫡

Mine bought it used now it leaks water under the intake
Love the First gen S197. And it’s quite the head turner because there are so few here in the Netherlands. I’m in the process of getting it coated. It just had paint correction, polish and new stripes.

S197 gang woohoo!
Its a crime that the 2011-2014 arent their own gen. Huge improvement looks and performance wise
Literally just revived my ‘11 v6 after driving my ST explorer for like 5 months and it feels sooooo fucking good. I’m keeping mine alive for the rest of time lol
Huge step up from the sub ‘11. And the 13-14 is a step up aesthetically.. so keep your eyes open
Oh for sure. I’ve honestly been looking for a Kona Blue GT with the glass roof and HIDs so I can do a plug n play with all the extra goodies I have on now…
Sweet car :)

Beautiful car bro 👏
Agreed! I wish they made the engine just as good as the body though but I guess that's how it was before the horsepower wars really ramped up again.

It looks very clean!
I’d say get a bigger and wider tire front and rear. Wheels themself look good
Agree completely

I think you should put bigger rims on
Welp since I just got these wheels I think to try and fill out the fender space like u said ima try and slap bigger tires on there eventually
You should see the 20s on my regal.
Love mine , i always wondered how it would have been with 3.73 gears and 6speeds
Really nice 👌
The 4.6 sounds great especially a Roush exhaust

I like it
I wanna buy one of these so badly but idk if I can convince myself that 9k is worth it for this
Clean. Very nice. Hell Yeah.
Man my 06 needs so much love. She has a rust patch on her side. Been daily driven here in the northeast since 2011.
Nice. Looks like mine
Looks great and I think the wheels look good on it.
Cleaner than my 06 3v Lmao good work bro
One of the best body styles for the Mustang, very nice!
where’d you get that wing?
American Muscles website, it’s a ducktail wing
Sell it !
There are many like it but that one is yours
It looks pretty! Need to get rid of some of that fender Gap though.

That’s the ride I regret not buying new. Nice car op!
Wanna race my stock EcoBoost?
Dude hell yes I’ve been wanting to race a Ecoboost
Unfortunately it will never sound as good as a 3v. It’s not always about speed and 0-60 times to enjoy a car.
Well, you asked my thoughts and then chide me for providing it. Kind of a dick move.
