Product Overview
Ford Mustang 6 (chassis code S550) is a mid-size sports coupe in production from 2015 to 2017, whereupon it received a facelift. It was available with a range of V6, V8, and turbocharged inline-4 engines that displaced 2.3 to 5.0 liters.
Owners will probably enjoy the powerful, V8 in the GT version the most, which is smoother than smaller engines and comes with an exhaust note that is sure to please. With the sweet 6-speed manual transmission, the Mk6 Mustang remains one of the most affordable option for pure driving pleasure.
Drivers who appreciate handling should keep in mind that the Ford Mustang 6 uses MacPherson front suspension, which doesn't provide the best cornering performance.
