2011 Mustang GT Review | Strong Foundation

[@BuzzytheBlue]

Hey guys, I hope you enjoyed this review. If so, you could really help me out by heading over to my newest one, it's on a 2017 Mercedes AMG GT. It's not every day I get the chance to drive/film such special cars, so I'd really appreciate you taking a look. Even a couple views can help KZbin suggest the video. Thanks so much! kzbin.info/www/bejne/pqa7pH-ra990rLM

Facts

[@LawDogg]

I adore my 2014 GT. It’s a street brawler straight from the factory, and I get more looks, stares, and compliments in this car than any I have owned in my life. I get excited drive it, just as the when I had a brand new 1987 Ford Mustang GT 30 years ago. Very much the most bang for the buck.

[@MrPachellid]

And this engine was underrated in HP from the factory as well. I believe it was closer to 430-435 hp when released. There are some articles/reviews out there where it was put on a dyno and was proven to be more than what was advertised. These are modern day classics. The dedication of the design team of the Coyote was unprecedented during its development! Piston oil cooling as well too, which was eliminated in newer versions. Badass road machines!

[@VTOffRoadAdventures]

The oil squirters were removed in 2013 I believe. The hood vents became standard to help reduce heat in 13 for this reason. The biggest issue with the 11-12 coyotes is the rod bearings being the same as the 4.6 3 valve engines. I did the write up on how to fix the coyote knock when mine started knocking and I discovered the part number for the bearings is the same for the 4.6.

[@sornywrx]

I was watching this video and within 2 minutes it had me coming up with an excuse to run an errand so I could drive my 2013 GT. If I hadn’t already bought one this video would’ve sold me. The production quality is as good or better than some car reviews I’ve seen on TV.

[@BuzzytheBlue]

Thank you! I really appreciate that. I really enjoyed using mine as an everyday car, made running errands a blast haha!

[@christenn32]

I also have a 2011 6 speed manual and I love it. I put a supercharger on it last year and it made an already great car better. Even makes those dreary Monday morning drives to work fun. I typically hold on to my vehicles about 5 years, just enough time to pay it off and move on to the next one, but I have no intention of letting this one go even after 10 years. I suppose I'll eventually move on to a newer Mustang, but this one will sit in garage right next to it.

[@donnsamaa]

Very good review,,made me way more comfortable & happy with my decision on choosing the 2011-2012 5.0 for my next car

[@joanstehlik235]

I'm loving my newly acquired 11' GT 6 spd. 3.55 Brembo pkg. Black w/beige int. Found it a year ago with 16K miles. Still practicing everything this pony can do.❤

[@BuzzytheBlue]

Nice! My car could’ve definitely used the Brembos haha. Don’t know what you’re running for wheels/tires, but I’ll say this, going to a 275 section square tire setup made the car handle amazing, even with an otherwise stock suspension. Something to consider in the future!

Just 120 views after 48 hours?? Man you must be the king of underrated channels... Well, I sure won't leave and I'm recommending you :-) May your perseverance lead to grand success! I take your opinions serious because you drive so many miles in the vehicles you review.

[@BuzzytheBlue]

Thanks John, I really appreciate that; I assumed a car as popular as the Mustang would perform better than say my Z4M but the KZbin algorithm often proves me very wrong haha! However, 392 Challenger video did this exact thing for almost a year before blowing up, so I never count a video out.

Fantastic video. I picked up my 2011 GT about a month ago and have been absolutely loving it.

[@visionop8]

Ive got a stock 2013 GT Premium and I'm never getting rid of it. This is probably one of the only reviews of a stock 2011-2014 Mustang GT I can find. It looks like they improved the brakes after 2011 because mine are factory stock and they look larger and they stop on a dime and are very grabby. My fiancee has a 2012 Mustang GT which is also stock and the brakes are visibly smaller and her car does not stop as hard as mine does. I've also had the same complaint about the stock suspension and I plan on changing it. We both have the Getrag MT82 6spd transmissions and though they aren't the best we haven't experienced any problems with them at all and they work rather well. Thank you so much for this review!!

Great video, still have my 2012 Mustang GT, only car I have ever had for 10 years. The key to handling is Watts Link rear end, koni or ford racing suspensions, 6 piston Brembo, Bama Tune or SCT, if you have a Gregtec manual, spend the money and drop a Tremec, enjoy...

Thanks Michael, do you have the Tremec in your GT?

[@michaeltabanao9014]

@@BuzzytheBlue no its the 6 speed auto , which I almost did not buy, however its bullet proof, no paddles, just 1, 2, 3 then drive. With a tune bama or sct tune has firmer shifts and all gears go to redline and gets up and goes. If you prefer the manual and you get a good price on the car, look at American Muscle or Late Restoration. They have the Tremec transmission for purchase. Drop that in and worry free

Why is this the best mustang review ever??? Currently saving up for a 2013 GT!

[@scerms]

As a S197 driver myself, this is the most accurate and honest review by far. Yes, it has its flaws, but also many upsides. My car has the Brembo package, where not only the brakes are sufficent for normal to sporty driving, but also the suspension is slightly upgraded, compared to the stock GT. And I cant agree more, this car rewards with the stellar engine and also the looks. You cant get anything near that, for what this car costs. And it can be anything you want, a drifter, a quarter mile tool, a daily driver....or a bit of everything and still looking awesome. I live in Germany and know many other cars, but this has earned my love and its going to stay. Edit: oh, did I mention, what FUN it is to drive 🥰

[@Wooley689]

This review was the best I've seen so far, gave a real world outlook and the footage is superb. I'll interject on why people crash these sometimes, it is because many of the drivers who move to them grew up on front wheels drive cars and have no experience with a rear wheel drive vehicle. They don't take time to relearn before they start romping down and get in trouble.

[@BuzzytheBlue]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed. Agree with you on the crash issue, it comes down to inexperience 99% of the time.

Thanks man! Had a whole message typed recommending something slower but, 🤷🏻‍♂️ at 19 I was driving something almost this quick and was fine. You’ve just gotta be careful. Some tips; don’t take traction control off for months while you’re getting used to the car (unless you’re in an empty parking lot), don’t show off on the street, and most important, don’t drive beyond your ability. Keep those things in mind and go for it! Just remember, respect the car and be humble.

[@rizzlerazzleuno4733]

Nice video. Here's is my take (philosophy) on the Mustang: Starting in 2011 with the improvements in the V6, V8 and now Ecoboost, the cars and engines are so vastly better than the original 65-66, that there is nothing to complain about. Hard plastics, big deal. The Mustang is not a luxury car and has always been built to be "affordable", although that term is not realistic for the current models. The price for a 65-66 just keeps going up and yet try using one for a daily commuter or a long trip, then you will really appreciate the modern Mustang. One reason the 65-66 are popular is the styling. The 2005-2012 was a great retro design. The changes to the front and rear of the 2013-2014 are fine, but lost some of the retro look. I've noticed that the online websites sell the 2011-2014 Mustangs very quickly at ever increasing prices.

[@VTOffRoadAdventures]

I had a 12 GT manual and also experienced some shifting issues. Turns out the issues aren't with the transmission but the horrible stock clutch. A high quality replacement clutch fixes almost all shifting issues.

[@B.Salcon]

Pretty professional video my man

[@kevinbranagan3463]

This review is excellent. As an owner of the exact same car (including color) as the video I agree with all the drawbacks but should add they are easily and economically fixable if you know what you’re doing. He is correct that the early MT82 is in garbage. Shifter asst tends to move laterally under load, I missed 2-3 and bounced off the rev limiter enough times to know. Best solution is a titanium shifter bracket that takes the slop right out. I bought one from Steeda that made a world of a difference. The non-Brembo brakes are undersized as well, but a good quality set of aftermarket rotors and hybrid track pads bring braking performance closer to what it needs to be for a >400hp car. Stock brake dive and bucking under acceleration are also an issue. Firmer set of shocks (I chose Koni STRs) with the stock springs keep it flat going into the corners and reduce oversteer coming out. With around $2000 worth of mild targeted modifications this car is capable of being a world beater.

[@BuzzytheBlue]

Most people don’t understand just how capable these are with a handful of tweaks. Suspension and a good set of tires and it’s a drivers race between this and an E90 M3 on any road/track. I love my M cars but I wasn’t so disillusioned as to downplay the capability of these Mustangs. Unbelievable value for money.

[@kevinbranagan3463]

There is a video out there somewhere of Randy Pobst doing timed laps around Willow Springs (I think) in an ‘11 GT and an M3. From what I remember the lap times were almost identical. Also I noticed towards the end of the video opening the throttle going uphill you had some pretty serious oversteer….nice correction. I don’t think I could get mine to step out that much if I tried, what kind of tires are you running?

Thank you for this content.

[@BuzzytheBlue]

Would you say the 11-14 coyotes are even still cheaper to maintain than a 5.7 challenger as far as maintenance, fuel etc? I’m cross shopping the two lol. Kinda leaning towards the mustang now tho

[@BuzzytheBlue]

The 5.0 is a much better engine than the 5.7. The more direct comparison would be the 6.4 (392). As far as reliability the Coyotes are extremely durable and reliable, the Dodge V8s are great but I’ve heard of quite a few large failures and problems, the owner of the 392 on this channel actually had a complete engine failure on his 2018.

[@Quintolloo]

BuzzytheBlue geez that’s kinda scary lol, I love the look of challengers but it does seem mustangs have better engines from the 3.7 to 5.0, and even the ecoboosts. Regardless of the car I certainly do want some reliability first 💪🏽 thanks my guy!

[@BuzzytheBlue]

QUEEZY Welcome man! Definitely do some additional research too before making a decision. I think I would want a power train warranty if I was to own one of the modern Dodge V8s. My friend with the 392 would’ve been out $10K if they hadn’t covered it.

[@renojpuente]

Also nice review.

[@BuzzytheBlue]

Generally speaking if it’s been well taken of these cars are very simple and affordable to upkeep. If it hasn’t been done already, at 120K it’s likely time for a basic “tune-up”, plugs, coils, etc. Otherwise, these cars really aren’t too fussy. Maintenance/ownership history is more important than mileage.

[@BuzzytheBlue]

The manual transmission is the weak link though so watch out for any consistent “lock-outs” or abnormal gear whine. The MT-82 can last a long time if driven smoothly, but when beat on it tends deteriorate.

[@michaeltabanao9014]

Probably already did this, if it needs it or not, new fuel pump, alternator, plugs, coil pack, battery. Have 114,000 on 2012, no issues. But in the process in replacing things that will eventually go out. If you do long road trips you will be glad you did. I still in the original parts listed above and the water pump. These coyotes and Chevy LS motors are known for performance and longevity.

what should I expect for maintenance bills and mpg for regular and sensible driving it? you say it's daily drivable?

[@BuzzytheBlue]

Maintenance bills are extremely reasonable, I haven’t had a single issue with mine and regular maintenance is inexpensive. They’re very durable cars. As far as MPG it’s obviously not great. Expect to average around 16, unless you’re doing a lot of highway driving in which case, maybe 20. I have daily driven mine for almost two years, love it.

@@BuzzytheBlue I see... Yea I'm looking into making the move from my mpv ford cmax 1.8 petrol (2007 model) I do about 7.8L/100km's so not too good already on fuel and since buying a house is impossible at my age with silly low mortgages might aswell buy a 'stang (live in europe by the way...sadly) Thanks for thale answer

@@hoepsipoepsi FYI, I have a 2011 V6 manual trans convertible and get 34 US mpg at 65-70 mph cruising. I also have a 2019 Ecoboost convertible manual trans and it gets 33 US mpg on long drives at 65-75 mph. The V6 is 305 hp, the turbo 4 is 310 hp. Both have all the power I need.

I just signed all the paperwork & got $3,000 for my 2010 Chrysler Sebring convertible, with a shot catalytic converter, & rebuilt motor, it was $17,998 out the door, $354.00 a month payments, it has 109,000 miles, is that a good deal, it's my first time dealing with the sharks at dealerships. 😂

The stock springs are horrendous. Changed them first week.

[@BuzzytheBlue]

What did you upgrade them with?

[@ynical]

@@BuzzytheBlue steeda linear rate springs. I love these spings put them on 3 different mustangs

[@BuzzytheBlue]

ynical Did you go with Steeda as well for the struts/shocks? I’ve been looking at upgrading for a while now but am wary of hurting the ride quality. The Steeda isn’t harsh on the street?

[@ynical]

My 14 gt I have now I left the stock stocks cause I didn't have money for new ones at the time. That was 5 years ago and never changed them cause the car rides good. My other cars had kyb

[@charliegotosleep]

I did Eibach Pro springs, but be warned... if you lower the car, you need to get control arm relocation brackets for the rear or your car could become dangerously unpredictable when cornering under power. I ended up doing Whiteline upper and lower control arms with the brackets. Car is a dream now. This is how Ford should have built them in the first place.

My 2011 Mt82 Was rebuilt by Ben calimer and it's Awesome!

[@BuzzytheBlue]

Nice! What did the rebuild set you back? Also how’s the feel compared to stock?

[@timn2391]

@@BuzzytheBlue $1400 bucks. I live less then 20 miles from Ben calimers shop so I just dropped it off and picked it up. No shipping fees.

I just got my first gt its an 2011 tuned to shit making over 500 HP im having shifting first to 2nd any tips? The clutch is so heavy

[@BuzzytheBlue]

Is it an aftermarket clutch? Mine wasn’t that heavy. Does it lock you out of second?

[@abc_u_hater]

@@BuzzytheBlue doesn't lock but it feels awkward giving it any sort of rpms shifting into gear at a complete stop and I'm pretty sure it's a racing clutch yes it's got racing cam in it

[@UndeadRoninWDE]

What would you say to getting ROUSH parts put on a 2011 ?

[@BuzzytheBlue]

Not a huge fan of the premium you pay for their parts. I'd just go with Ford Performance or whatever it's called. I doubt they're actually any better than other tuner products, but you pay a lot more, all while still getting none of it back when you sell the car.

[@williamoliveros76]

Im looking for one in Dallas i found so many cheap ones and sold out in weeks!! Literally 2011 mustang GTs for 8.5k

[@BuzzytheBlue]

A running and driving 2011 for that price is an insane amount of car for the dollar
