I purchased a 2014 V6 “base model” about 3.5 years ago. Since then I have put about $10,000 of aftermarket mods into my car and have completely customized it to my own liking. I love that I don’t pay a lot in gas, since it is my daily. And I love that for my avg driving, I get the most bang for my buck when it comes to how much of the car I use. I know with a GT, there would be a whole lot of power in that car that I would be paying for that I would rarely ever get to use. The V6 just makes sense. If I had to do it over again, I wouldn’t change a thing.

Not to mention, if you put that much in mods, it is probably as fast or faster than the GT but your insurance is way less.

True, 17 and was thinking about a v8. Could afford it, but realized it don’t want to have to afford it. Just a waste of money, I think about “but more power!” And then I think, “well, when would you have to use that power” and the answer is always on inclines like exit ramps or getting onto the interstate. Other than that, showing off or going too fast on the highway. Not worth it, especially considering I have little experience with light cars with big engines lmao.

All these comments are so ignorant, you just rational the fact that you couldn’t afford a v8 with nonsense. I have a 2014 5.0 and I use my power band every single time I drive it. On the highway especially. There is no possible way any mustang v6 would never touch the v8 in terms of performance. And if you do for some reason mod a v6 it still wouldn’t be close to a v8. And if you are modding a v6 you’re an idiot and should’ve just got a v8 if you’re looking for performance.

I’ve owned several v8 Stangs over the last 18 years or so and have been around mustangs since birth. I’m a v8 guy and currently track a 12 5.0. That said, I have owned a 14 3.7 manual for over 4 years and have daily driven it since. I never thought I’d buy a 6 but I’ve truly been in love with my cyclone from day one. I chose it over a 2010 4.6 gt. I have better 1/4 mile slips in my 3.7 than the 03 Mach 1 manual and 07 3v I had years ago and for the money they are hard to beat. With a few upgrades(mainly rear gear and tuning) its a blast to drive anywhere. I ll take my 3.7 over my wife’s $50k suv any day!

I grew up in the muscle car era but this V6 would put some of those vehicles to shame. It has plenty of power, is beautiful and good on gas! And not even expensive. What more could you ask for?

I just bought a 2012 V6 Mustang yesterday. It only had 14,000 miles on it! It’s practically brand new. There was just one owner before me. The guy just covered it up and kept it in his garage. I love this car more than anything I have ever driven. Before this I had a 1995 Ford Bronco. I got into an accident and unfortunately we had to deem it totaled. That truck was my baby. But I had to let her go. I wound up getting $26,970.00 for it. So after a couple weeks of careful consideration and searching for the right Mustang, I found a unicorn and jumped on the opportunity! Your Mustang is beautiful man! 👍🏻

I bought a 12 V6 Premium convertible back in 2013. Since then I have driven it from Florida to Colorado, Texas, and New Mexico. My V6 Convertible can get a real, true-to-life 30mpg out on the highway. Around town, it is more like 20-22 mpg. And it does that while pumping 305HP that is a blast to drive. I'm closing in on 100k miles now and still have had no real maintenance issues with the Mustang, and I also like to get down and blast off at the red lights sometimes. The V6 Cyclone is an amazing engine, worthy of respect.

If you haven’t purchased an exhaust yet, take a look at the Borla S-Type/Stinger. They’re pricey but in my opinion are by miles the best exhaust for the 3.7L. You would not be disappointed! If you want sometime a little louder, the Roush exhaust sounds mean too and doesn’t hurt the wallet quite as badly, but they are also not quite as refined.

Thank you Sir! You helped me to "convince myself" that v6 is good enough and v8 is not the only Mustang that one can desire. Same with power - over 300 km is really decent. I had Focus ST which is 250 km and I could not understand why people upgrade them to 300 km+ :) Basically you get 100km/h in 6.7 sek and in Poland if you forget yourself in the city, you can lose your driving license very quickly. And I agree with some folks below - this video is really nice to watch ;)

These model year v6 mustangs are dope as hell, fun to drive and still have great power.

This is a very well done video. I owned a black 2013 3.7 Premium from January 2016 to December 2019. On December 12th, I traded it in...towards a race red 2014 3.7 Premium. Why trade one v6 for another v6? A multitude of reasons; lower miles, better condition (the '13 had endured quite a bit of abuse before it came to me), and I had always wanted a red one. The planets lined up, and I finally got the Mustang I'd wanted. I love my 2014. At a mere 37,000 miles, she still drives like new. It had previously been owned by an older couple in a very small North Dakota town. Never modded, never beat on. I do have plans for the car, but those plans only consist of minor appearance mods. 305 hp is more than sufficient for a 49 year-old guy living in Fargo, ND (this side of the state is as flat and uninteresting as Kendall Jenner). At my age, I have no interest in impressing anyone. I've outgrown all that. I don't show-boat downtown on the weekends, and I learned long ago that any woman who is impressed by the car you drive isn't the kind of woman you want to waste your time with. There are hundreds of miles of sparsely-traveled highways here in eastern ND. Me, my Mustang, some good music, those ghostly highways, and I'm exactly where I need to be. Thanks for the video, Graham!

Anyone who says a 6 cylinder Mustang is less of a Mustang, or the Mustang you get "just to say you have a Mustang" needs to be reminded that the Mustang has had a 6 cylinder since the first Mustangs went on sale in 1964. The 6 cylinders have always been the money makers for Ford that allowed them to do bigger things with the V8 cars. I started with a 2012 V6 Premium manual. Excellent first car. I later had a '15 GT 6 speed Performance Pack, and a '68 289 Coupe project. To me the V6 is a gateway to many things, and it really is a perfect daily driver for a car enthusiast, practical, fun and useable power that doesn't make you cringe at the gas pump. The 3.7 Is capable of pushing 550+ wheel horsepower with forced induction and 550 is far from its max. I still have my first Mustang, the 2012 V6, it now has 150k miles on it and still looks and drives like new. I don't plan on ever selling it.

I recently purchased an old 2012 Mustang V6 manual and really like it! Hell, love it! You definitely notice the lower weight in the front end compared to the GT's. It feels nimble and quick to respond, and has a very nice sound to it, kind of German. Sounds more like a sports car than a muscle car. Good fun for cheap. Good fuel economy too.

Had an '11 GT500 convertible the wife loved but she wouldn't drive it because it was too much power. When she deployed to AF I bought her an '11 3.7L, AT, convertible, shipped off to SAI for the GTS upgrade so she would have her own to drive. Fast forward a few years and many military moves we were on our way to Korea and I just couldn't put the cars in storage again but we could only ship one. Easy choice, gave the GT500 to our son (he was going to get it later on anyways) and shipped the GTS. It's been a fantastic car to drive around Korea and nothing on the Pen looks like it.

I used to think it was V8 or nothing when it came to muscle cars. However, I'm starting to view muscle cars the way I view strength training, meaning that calisthenics, bodybuilding, and powerlifting are all major forms of strength, but the physique and performance output are different in the end. Nobody would argue that any of those types of lifters were not muscular and athletic and powerful. Same thing with a modern era V6 Mustangs. It's not exactly a powerlifter, but it's undeniably a strong choice.

I purchased a 2014 V6 "base model" brand new. The only options on it were the ruby red paint, the electronics package, and the V6 performance package. My first car was a 1967 Mustang GT 390 fastback (oh do I wish I still had it!) four speed, and the '14 will out accelerate it (I have time sheets), out stop it, out handle it by a wide margin, and gets nearly three times the gas mileage on regular gas. With the performance package the '14 drives like it's a go kart, has been dead reliable for 131,000 miles, and is extremely economical for what it is. I agree with everything in the video and have had it from both sides, that is the big block GT and the V6. With that said however, there is one thing the '67 had that the '14 can't compete with, the sound....

@@GrahamCain I inherited it from my brother who was the original owner. I grew up in that car and learned to drive on it, so it was a natural to "buy" it from him when he out grew it. Back then a used muscle car was just that, a used car. It ended up having a rusted out cowl vent, that spread to the floor pans, and that was pretty much the end of it. It was about to rust in half and the doors wouldn't consistently open and shut because of the chassis flex. There wasn't the parts available then to repair it like there is now. Got rid of it for parts and got a VW... BIG STEP DOWN! It's kind of neat zooming around in the '14 and getting the looks I get as a white haired white bearded Granpa in a ruby red kids car!

It feels like it's got 50% of the power of the Corvette Z51, but it's still very fun to drive. It does have enough power & brakes/handles really well. I put the top down and my foot down on the highway and it purrs at 80 mph. It's a proper sports car & a great value! I love that I can drive it anywhere with my wife, dog and luggage.

Graham you alone have gave me such confident in my 3.7 stang than anyone else on the internet You stood up and said a really controversial opinion and i salute you for it because its a nice opinion to have I already have so much love for my mustang she is gorgeous reliable fast and a damn good car Some people dont know this but the 3.7 mustang is faster than any other GT that came before it with a 305 horsepower and 0-60 in 6 seconds stock When people ask me why didnt i get a gt id just say …. Why would i This car is lighter and cheaper and when i just cruise around i get a gas mileage of 4 cylinder specially now gas prices have skyrocketed and when i bury the throttle its not that different from the GT The only thing id say is missing in the v6 is the sound , it doesnt sound bad but it could sound way better i blame ford for not making it growlier and louder with a deep sound However i remember the first time i heard my car from the outside my friend borrowed it and when he came back i was hearing a really nice car only to my surprise it was my v6 mustang If you want a daily reliable car with a handful of fun id say get a 3.7 mustang and ignore what people have to say

I have two cars now: a 2008 Nissan 350z touring roadster, and a 2011 Mustang v6 that I've had for 12 years. It has a cold air intake with a performance tune, and just with those two mods it is very nimble. It feels very light and is still fun to drive for automatic car. I enjoy my Z with its manual transmission, but the mustang still fills lighter and nimbler than the z, with only a couple of small mods. I am still thinking of adding some steeper gears to it, but it has truly been an excellent car.

Graham, you make some excellent points about the Cyclone 3.7L V6 Mustangs. I agree with you. My wife and I purchased a 2012 Mustang Premium V6 Convertible 5 months ago and absolutely love it. We also drove multiple 4.6L and 5.0L V8 5th generation mustangs. The 5.0L Coyote V8 is certainly the king. Let there be no doubts about that. But my wife and I agreed that much power would either get us in trouble or be hard to enjoy on a daily driver basis with traffic. We previously owned a 2002 Mustang 3.8 V6 Premium. The Cyclone 3.7L V6 is light years ahead of the old 3.8L V6. The 3.8L V6 had some torque but not much else and didn’t get great mileage. The Cyclone 3.7L V6 is a real gem and that is coming from an owner of many imports (First generation Mazda RX-7’s, 3rd generation Toyota Supra, Nissan 200SX SE-R, Acura 3.0CL, and an Acura 3.2CL).

Thank you for your straight up comments and opinion. I have been back and forth on which Mustang to buy. I like the S550 and also traditional style of the ‘11-‘14 3.7 V6, stay away from the 4.0 V6. With gas prices these days the V8 may be out. v6 will be cheaper on insurance too. Sorry for the long winded comment.

I agree with you, the v6 is powerful enough. I went from a 2013 v6 to a 2019 gt and I rarely get a chance to enjoy the extra power because it accelerates so quickly. It would’ve saved me $10k to get an ecoboost. That being said, I’m extremely happy with my gt. I want the v8 sound and I feel it has better resale value and reliability over a turbo i4. If Ford releases another v6 I may switch to that eventually

I have a 2010 v6 mustang. Power and handling as well as breaking are good. Fuel mileage is also impressive. I'm getting 23mpg 50/50 highway city driving. The reason i would like have more power is because now a days there are people on the highways in town that like to purposefully be jerks by speeding up or sometimes slowing down to block someone from either merging onto traffic or from an on ramp. And i know they're doing it for pleasure because once you get close enough to see the driver they give you the HA HA look or some other gesture combined with the look. Not everyone does this. It only happens about twice a week. Sometimes 3 or 4 in a week but thats above average. My point is that with more power you can stomp on it and leave them behind. I'll admit the v6 handles most situations good but not all. Then there is the road rage idiot that is willing to ram you with his vehicle and will actually follow you until you reach your destination. He wants to fight. Probably was looking for a fight in the first place. If your driving a dodge hellcat or faster mustang v8. You can leave them behind. Period. Thats why i wish for more than this v6 mustang.

AND THERE are some mods that can be done that won't empty your bank account. Great gas mileage. On the highway. So . It's not a v8 gt but it's a great car .and fun too drive .

I totally agree. Rented a 2019 Camaro V6 and couldn't believe how good and friggin quick it was. A few weeks later hit the lottery at SFO and got a true SS Camaro to drive. Took it back after 1 day and grabbed an Ecoboost vert. The V* was just too much, too much power, too much rough ride, too much attention to make the thing act civil. I will at some point get a V6 Stang. Mid range torque is a bit flimsy but can be fixed very easily. The 0-60 in 5.5 is plenty fast enough for me...I mean, I aint racing.
