Diabolical!

Nothing wrong with a 6. Get what you want, and don't worry about what other people think about it.

Just out of curiosity, I was told that the S197 V6 only gets one more MPG than the GT on the highway and gets the same city MPG. Does anyone still have their window sticker to confirm? I have a hard time believing that the V6 and GT get almost identical gas mileage.

If you do some reseach around these forums, you'll find out that, in the real world, the V6s aren't a whole lot better than the V8s when it comes to gas mileage. Sure, it's better, and if you drive like a grandmother, it will be even a greater difference. But, in my opinion, it'snot enough of a difference that it should sway someone towards a 6 instead of an 8.

A previous poster said the V8s get "horrible" gas mileage. That's just ridiculous, and uninformed.

Looking at my window sticker right now.....19 city mpg/28 Highway mpg.

Last time I filled up I got 24 with mostly city driving. Yes, I was easy to the take off at the stop lights and I shifted sooner and used 5th gear more.

Holy old Thread!!!

I agree, the battle between V6 Vs V8 is getting old. As you say, to each their own.

Hey a stang is a stang. No matter if you have a classic , mustang ii or new one. I got the 6 because it is what I wanted. I could not get a 8 with all the features for the price that I payed for mine. Also getting every bit of juice out of a 6 is a bit more tricky then a 8. more of a challenge.

man forget the people who hate on us, they are just jealous we smoke there v8's who guys know what im talking about, everyone always ask me is it a GT and i say hell no its an automatic v6 bitches and i love it and they always say how slow it is, so i just fill the parking lot with rubber and smoke and that just about always shuts them up.

absolutely nothing is wrong with the mustang having a V6. the V6 is there for those of us who can't afford the 30k pricetag of a new GT or someone who doesn't need the power or wants to save some cash on gas or insurance but still want a mustang. especially for younger people. no one should have a V8 mustang for their first car. they need to respect the power of a V6 first before moving on up in the world to a V8.

I would have to say the 4.0 V6 is one of the best sounding stock 6 out there. It also can be one of the fastest with the right mods that for sure!
