the release of the new 2020 Shelby GT500 means one thing...depreciation for older mustangs!
now more than ever has it been a better time to dip your toes into the mustang lifestyle than by getting yourself a 2005-2009 s197 V6 Stang!
in this video ill give you some good reasons why you should give this pony another look

Race as a type of sport, it challenges people, not the car. Any car can be a racing car if you put a racing driver behind the wheel.

Don't waste your money buying performance bolt ons for a V6. For the same outlay you could buy a stock GT and still be way ahead performance-wise. Even a turbo V6 will only just equal a GT equipped with only a CAI & tune. The only real advantages of the V6 are lower insurance, lower vehicle taxes (Europe), lower price, and less weight. Gas mileage isn't that much better to be a game changer (unless you romp the GT gas pedal to hear that V8 sing), and the GT is equally as reliable. If you're going to buy a V6, get one that's rust free with good paint, and enjoy it for what it is. In the meantime, start looking for a wrecked '11-14 GT to buy from a salvage auction to use as a donor car for a Coyote swap (plus many other parts) project. Then you can rescue two ponies (V6 bodyshell & Coyote GT mechanicals/interior) to build your dream Mustang.

It's fun to drive with 210 HP. If he was talking about a 1994 to 1998 mustang GT you guys wouldn't be complaining but yet that car only had 210 HP as well. Smfh why can't we all just like mustangs period? Besides we all know it's not always about HP. And btw I race my V6 and I never find myself wishing I had a V8 but that's just me. Do better guys. We all want the same thing. Not to mention Shelby built a 08 V6 terlingua Mustang. If he thought it was worth his time, you should too cause it destroyed V8s.

I am not in drag racing or spinning wheels like hell drivers etc. But all your negative comments about the v6 Mustang let other people feel bad about their cars! Some guys brag about their v8 mustang 2009 or 2010 that is better etc. But the 4 Cylinder ECCOBOOST has 305 HP and the V8 2009 315 not a big different, so what is the point of a V8 here if the 4 cylinder has like the same HP?? And i am sure that guys that have a GT-500 or Shelby talk shit about those that have a GT and so on, and the very first model Mustang, the Early 1965 Mustang (or as many refer to it, the 64 ½), was available as a coupe or convertible and featured a base 170-cubic inch six-cylinder engine with a three-speed floor shift transmission. So V8 came later and if it was not for the V6 their were no V8!!! cheers!

@arrowphillips6902 4 жыл бұрын

raymond kock awesome comments but there is a reason the 4 cylinder engines at the track are rebuilding after every race and the v8s can run all season long. It’s because to get the same hp out of the smaller engine you will have to build it to it’s max and that just means it will fail faster. A 700hp 6 cylinder would be equal to a 1400hp LS motor but the 4 and 6 cylinder will probably blow after a couple races if not one race....ok built right the LS will last a full season and even let you drive it 3000miles from race to race. There is the weight difference...Think of it as 1 hp for every 5lbs that you loose. And yes the LS is Chevrolet 🤪

@DVJFan ok bud, this ain't getting nowhere. Btw I just want you to know that I'm not talking out of my butt, I own a 2009 GT/CS and I'm part of a Mustang Club called Redline Coyotes. All the things I have said have been out of my personal experience not something I read online or saw on KZfaq.

I mean if you want the 4.0 v6 enjoy having low 200 horsepower stock. I just bought a 2011 (first year of the 3.7 cyclone) v6 for 9 grand with 47500 miles great condition no exterior problems and it runs 305 horses stock. Just wait and get a 3.7 it’s a really fun and reliable car

I got divorced, traded my money pit BMW 335D for a S197 V6 Mustang, Surprisingly I really didn't feel like I had that much less power. Also plenty of inexpensive mods. Tomorrow I'm installing a BKK CAI and Pypes Street Pro axle back exhaust.

I currently have 2008 V6 Base Model Mustang with Auto Trans!...I would like to do a Dual Exhaust Conversion, a good Tune up and possible Vortex V6 Supercharger upgrade to 330HP!...Also I am looking at Tires and Wheels upgrade along with Suspension and Brakes upgrade! I've upgraded my Stereo system and put in some LCD Lightning Exterior a Interior so far...I am Just Saying!...God Bless!

I have a 05 v6 auto and I put on the pypes true dual mid muffler system and man was it an upgrade. 4.0 is pretty big for a v6 so it sounds awesome plus I think it added 10hp maybe not sure. It'll definitely hold me over until I get a 13-14 gt manual someday. Good luck with your build!

@@denniscampanella1816Thank You!...I too, am looking at the 2013/14 Mustang GT but with the 6R80 6sp Auto Trans!...When I was in High School I had a 66 Ford Mustang Coupe that I fixed up like a 66 Shelby GT350 Coupe! There is a Company that converts 05 thru 14 Mustangs into a 69 Shelby GT500/CS, a 69 BOSS 302, a 69 Mach 1, a 68 BULLITT Tribute Mustang and a 67 a Eleanor Tribute Mustang!...My favorite Mustang was the 69/70 Shelby GT500/GT350 Mustang's! So I am thinking of getting a 2013/14 Mustang GT and having it converted to a 69 Shelby GT500/CS Edition by a company called Retrobuilt.com I can get a Whipple S/C Stage 2 to Boost the HP to 750HP that is 50 State Street Legal!...So you might want to Check them out, they are known as Retrobuilt Motors Today!...May you have Success on your 05 V6 Project!...God Bless! BTW!...The website for Retrobuilt Motors is Retrobuilt.com They are also going to release Conversions for the 2015 thru 2020 Mustang's in the Summer or Fall of 2019!...I am Just Saying!

I think it's funny someone mentioned that the 3.7's are better. While they supposedly are like 95hp difference. My stock 4.0 with only a slp power flo can pull on them. I was impressed enough to keep up with a 2010 gt 5.0. I wish I filmed the couple of times I've raced them.

I agree 200% with you man. 20 years ago their wasn’t much you could do with the v6 cars be it mustang or Camaro. Nowadays cheap turbocharging is readily available and with a little no how you can have something different, hell you can throw a 2j into one of these things or better yet an sr20 and really piss people off. Hot ridding is all about taking your car and making it into something unique and bad ass and screw what other people think.

but still people like me around, so my mind was not changed. I just don't like V6 motors, they produce almost as much power as V8 cars now yeah.. but use almost as much fuel from my experience. making them feel kind of pointless? loved my 3.6 Cadillac, but felt it would have been better with a small V8, and a mustang? I just would not be able to bring myself to get a V6 Mustang. because I just like the whole thing of having eight cylinders.

personally i would still get a 2v gt from 99-04 i have a 2017 gt nd daily drive a 01 gt with my mods and tune its pushing 250 hp to wheel around 300 crank hp which is not back considering the 2v dont make alot na hp but has 270 ft trq to the wheel which is around 320 to crank this v6 models only make 220 hp to crank so thats only like 170 180 to wheel is the 05-09 mustang interior way better then the 99-04 o yes its a better interior but again dont sleep on the 2v from 99-04 u i got mine for 3200 with 140000 miles bone stock bought from a older couple dat only drove it on the wekends ive droppe another 3 thousand on the car with mods and wat not so for under 6500 a 2v gt is good bang for its buck and u cant replace that v8 rumble

@kristophermartinez6928 5 жыл бұрын

There’s nothing reliable about the 4.0, because once that third timing chain gives out the motor is coming out, the 4.6 3 valve is bad as well with the phaser problems but that is owner neglect with the oil changes so it can be prevented. But those 4.0s aren’t the guides and tensioners will give out at one point and then that 2 or 4 grand u spent on buying the car will go up another grand or so if u take it to a shop and swapping the motor isnt easy since the rangers and explorers that had the 4.0 and also had 4x4 have a fourth chain on the vary bottom. It’s better to stay away from the 4.0 save more and get a 4.6 if u want the first gen s197 but understand what ur getting into don’t just jump into it.
