What You SHOULD EXPECT When BUYING a 2015-2018 Mustang GT

2015-2018 Mustang GT what you SHOULD EXPECT when buying!
In this video I talk about what you should expect when buying a 2015-2018 Mustang GT. This applies for 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018 Mustang GTs. I talk about key aspects such as the 5.0L Coyote motor, independent rear suspension, interior, exterior, and performance package. This is not only my favorite Mustang to date, but the best car I've ever owned in general. I also talk about buying a forged set of wheels, my new euro tails, as well as a final update on my Whipple Supercharger before it's arrival and first video!

i test drove a 2015 gt premium and i traded my bolt on 2011 in for it that day. i love the s550. it does feel like a whole new car, it's hard to explain it to people who ask. love the videos man! keep it up 👌

Thanks Wes, I appreciate it! The 11-14 cars are awesome and I would never knock on them, but the s550 has been amazing for me too.

you're making up my mind on getting one of these. It's just enough modern and just enough analog on the interior. I've heard ppl say that they think the higher end mustangs are just cooler and have more character than the new vettes. I kinda see their point.

[@nelsonericj]

Yeah Jeff, go ahead and show the new wheels and tires before the Whipple. I can't wait to see them. I think it's so great how excited you are with your mustang and these new mods. I am the same way and sometimes can't even sleep if I have something like new LED lights coming the next day. I guess I am obsessed too. Like you, this is one of the most amazing cars I have owned and having people like you modding and showing allow the rest of us to experience what it's like. Is your shop in Florida? I am down in Boca Raton. Looking for a good place to go to do a Cat-Back and maybe a shifter like you got. Keep up the videos!

[@JeffAshton]

Eric Nelson thanks Eric, definitely have always had a serious passion for Mustangs, I wish I had documented my s197 like this. I've been patient with this car and now everything is coming together so definitely an insane amount of excitement! As for the shop, eventually I want to get into installs once I can hire a tech, but in the meantime just performance parts.

So much content for you to put out lol. I say put out the tail light video, put out the wheel video, then whipple. I am so afraid you are going to regret not getting a dyno or a final run on a track before the whipple .. but man I am stoked for the outcome.

[@JeffAshton]

Codeblue I know it's crazy all of it coming together. The issue I had in stock form was clutch protection would kick in even with advancetrac off when using my drag radials. I needed a tune honestly. My best pass was 13.008 on DRs but that was missing fourth gear. If I didn't already roast my street tires I probably would've ran on the crappy pirellis.

[@vid1fl]

I had a chance to drive a 2017 Mustang GT in California for a rental car and ever since I love this mustang version even more when I first saw the 15-17. The performance pack is definitely a great option and I love the premium package as well. I have a 2017 F 250 now and will get the Mustang later on.

[@bigogtt4905]

Hey I love the supercharger setup but for the type of driving and racing I want to do with my 5.0. I want to do the square setup and keep it all motor. I would see what it does stock. Then do what Scott did to his FBO coyote built forged internals. I love have his car sits as well. I have seen some videos on youtube of the smoking tire and I can do a size 18 or 19 inch rim with 295 wide tires all the way around. But I debating getting the premium and performance package because most people spend more money replacing most of the suspension parts. And the base model would probably be better for weight savings. Also looking forward to the whipple install man.

[@JeffAshton]

BigOG TT thanks man! 🙌

[@bowchickawowwow6246]

Hey Jeff I just started watching your video and I love every one of them, I have been looking for a 2017 gt premium fully loaded and wanting to put the whipped super charger installed my self if it's ok with you could you do a video while you are doing the installation please that would be greatly appreciated thank you.

[@JeffAshton]

It's happening this week so stay tuned! :)

[@mannythrash508]

I got a base I didn't need all the extras tbh got custom red katzkin leather seats on the doors as well went from 255 square stance traded tires and rims from a 2020 mustang (mines a 16 4k miles) now I'm sitting 295 rear and 275 front got a carbon fiber cowl induction hood off another stang for 200 bucks threw in a k&n cold air intake got my SR lowering springs waiting to go on

[@MustafaGT]

I installed my ROUSH SC on my 2016 a few weeks ago. Did the install my self in my garage. One of the happiest days of my life :) :) :). I laid everything out just like you will. Install was very easy. Just very tedious and time consuming. On my car there were only 2 bosses that I needed to shave off instead of 3 in the front cover. The third one was already shaved off. I think on the 2016 they removed that third boss from the front cover. So you will save some time on that :) Then you got the intake boss. Enjoy and make sure you take your time.

[@JeffAshton]

Awesome man, congrats on your ROUSH supercharger and on doing the install yourself.

[@DontRug]

@@JeffAshton what was your most expensive repair on this car?

[@Knards]

My 2015 Pony isnt a performance package. In fact it has the 3:15 year end which means Dale Jarret and the Brown UPS truck beats me ff the line. I think that rear end is going to be an advantage as a daily driver. I wont be racing it on a track. I totally agree with you, after 23,000 miles I cant find anything I dont like. Except the backup light that is useless :). I am getting a Roush 670hp supercharger, that should be enough power

[@Aresfire2]

I want a lot more Torque for 18. If so a Lightning Blue Black Accent Stang will be in my garage with Procharger and long tube headers. In that case I don't think I'll order dual mode exhaust and swap for Mag ride with carbon dash performance package.

[@marcasswellbmd6922]

I just Bought a 2017 GT Yesterday.. I will be picking her up this Thursday coming up.. Lightning Blue with 8,909 Miles on her so 9K.. 6 Speed manual.. I was Blown away at the power and comfort of the car it has the performance package too with same wheels...

Very nice car but my man, at 4:04 you really swung that door open right in to the lift!! That sounded so painful!! Love the coyote

[@dalebrooks304]

I have had my 17 for about a year I don't have the premium package. Would rather have climate control but it doesn't oh well. My complaints about the car are the small rear view mirrors, lack of a backseat, and to get anything in the backseat the seat does not slide forward as well as tilt like my 06 used to. I will never figure out why Ford didn't do that. Other than that 435 horsepower is plenty and the car handles like a dream and I'm very satisfied with this car

[@craiglearn8843]

I’m going to potentially get a 2021 premium gt with performance package this week.. would you say $52k CAD would be an okay deal? That’s after the 3500 rebate and a 3000 work partner discount. They don’t want to go down on sticker price considering the rebates and discount which I understand but wondering if anyone has experience. Is this the kind of car right now that doesn’t get a discount?

[@notfug]

Would it be more worth it to get the premium and upgrade parts or just get the premium and performance pack.

[@mustang4life844]

but yeah the 5.0 modular engine is nice and all but I'm a true old school push rod fan love the cam sound on them but some ppl say that the 5.0 coyote is nothing more but a beef up 2010 4.7

so this maybe a dumb question. but here it goes when you lower the car do you have to have all the tires realigned? and what catback would you recommend for a aggressive but not obnoxious sound? have 2 lil girls so dont want to scary the complete shit out of them but still want a nice growl. thanks for anyone who can shed some light on this for me.
