So on July 2nd I was T-boned and the insurance company totaled out my baby, luckily things worked out and I found a killer deal on a 2016 5.0... so here are some picks of my new 5.0

Thanks man, luckily it was just me in the car and no wife or kids! The Stang took the hit pretty well seeing that I'm fine. The insurance company worked with me, I'm in the military with a cramped schedule so they got me the check by the 7th. Couldn't be more thankful

Thanks for your service. Is USAA your insurance company by chance ?

First off, thanks for your service. Second, glad it was just you and that you are ok. Third, nice ride! Congrats!

Since ford has started their awesome summer sales incentives, I have been tempted to jump on a 2017 race red s550.

How do you like it, coming from an S197mustang?

Race red!!! One of my favorite hues. Looks awesome. Probably not the preferred way to upgrade, but you have a nice new ride.

I like the new design of the interior, much more modern feeling, the cup holders are in a much better spot, no longer hit your arm when shifting, as far as performance it seems a little sluggish compared to my S197, that being said the transmission is much smoother and shifts much easier which was a big thing I didn't enjoy about my s197, but my S197 had some money put into horsepower so it's hard to judge stock s197 to stock s550, all in all I love the new S550, it rides great, seems almost luxurious on the inside and is beautiful exterior wise, I just can't wait to start modding, couldn't help myself and order an MBRP cat back already

Very nice man. I have been tempted to upgrade my race red 2013 5.0 to an s550 5.0 but not sure i'm ready to part with mine just yet.
