Default upgrade recommendation

I recently purchased a 2010 gt premium and trying to figure out what upgrades I should do. Any feedback would be appreciated.

Welcome to the forum, glad to have you and congrats on your first Mustang.

The first thing I'd do is start a new thread in the Tech section, under General Tech, or in the forum for your specific year. You'll get a lot of advice over there. Good luck

It depends on what your goals are for the car. I think the mustangs perform pretty well so I focused more on appearance. Wheels and springs will dramatically change the look of your car and set it apart from the hundreds of other mustangs you probably see in your area. If performance is your main objective go with a tuner, intake, and exhaust.

I look to Craig's list and the forums for used parts to save some cash. There is no shortage of parts available.

I appreciate the feedback. I think I will focus on appearance for now.

Two very popular areas to upgrade are suspension upgrades and appearance upgrades.
