I asked this question about a year ago on this forum...interested to hear responses now from all the new forum members, and those that have now owned an S550 for a while. Would you buy this car again? Simple question, but a great measure of loyalty, etc...

For me, yes absolutely I would buy it again. The combination of looks, performance, refinement, and value make this a no brainer choice for me that I would do again in a heartbeat. No car is perfect, but the pros significantly outweigh the cons IMHO :cheers:

yes, maybe one that was cheaper, not fully loaded. but this is based on finances, if had had a base model I would have a power adder by now. so to simply answer the question, yes, this car is awesome.

I'm eight months into ownership and can't wipe the grin off my face every time I'm in it. I would absolutely buy this machine again.

As far as the car goes, yes definitely I would buy again. It's the best value in performance and daily comfort. As far as my bank account and savings goes, definitely regret buying it and my 2014. I was saving so much so quickly in anticipation of buying one, and then with down payments and monthly payment and insurance and VA personal property taxes, my cash flow is crummy. Definitely didn't stretch my budget, but this isn't a cheap enterprise.

I absolutely would again but I wouldn't sign the paperwork till all the body panels and such were aligned/gapped properly. Would also splurge for the 401A. The 400 is just missing the base bump it should have. Oh and spoiler delete.....

I will have owned my 2015 TriYellow Eco for a year on the 21st, and although it was not the best financial decision of my life, (just bought a new business two weeks before), I would do it again in a heartbeat. I have enjoyed this Mustang more than any purchase I have ever made. Still love it as much as the day I drove it home!

Yup. No complaints. Love the way the auto is programmed in these 550's.

Alternatively, I'd love a GT350, but that's out of my ballpark up here in Ontario.

After five months of ownership, I can honestly say NO, I would not buy the car again. I didn't want to purchase a GT this time around (largely due to the non availability of the PP). While I enjoy the lighter weight and overall better balance of the EB over the GT, it is underpowered in stock form, the stock intercooler is inadequate in size and cooling ability and the exhaust note (minor, in my opinion, in comparision to the power and intercooler issues) is under whelming to say the least...no matter what after market CB is installed. Now, I know I can tune the car, add an intercooler (and a downpipe) and a CB to address all of these issues (mostly) but, I didnt drop 29K on a car to immediately void my warranty. I will keep the EB, and keep it stock, with the hope of Ford offering the GT in 2017/2018 with the PP and an automatic transmission. The GT, with the PP, will have plenty of power for my daily driving, and occasional spirited driving, without having to void my warranty with the installation of an aftermarket tune and an intercooler.

13 months and 4500 miles. Yep. Sure would!

Had an '11, which I loved, a '13 which I loved more, and now this one. I can't imagine Ford making it better. Other than the GT 350, of course.

The independent rear and the interior upgrades are the biggest things. The looks come 2nd.
