@@RaitisRides I don't understand the comparison to the Camaro... Mustang is so far ahead in its own class/league. I don't see the point in comparing it to 3rd place: Mustang was first More iconic Mustang has never stopped being in production while Camaro is on its second death sentence Mustang sells more More fun, and more power as you described Interior is FAR better I don't understand comparing it when Camaro is not in the same class, ITS NOT EVEN IN THE SAME MODEL YEAR for crying out loud haha. Any similarities are a mere coincidence. Don't degrade the mustang like that, Joe 😢
I have to say that Iconic Silver is my favorite color on the S650 Mustang. Boy, does that convertible look and sound amazing! Thanks for showcasing this one, Joe!
Hi Apostle Joe, I love this new Ford Mustang GT Convertible "The Apostle to the Muscle Cars" and I think this S650 platform looks. Like I've said before, I really love the fake corner vents because without them, the gray corners would look rather plain jain on the metal.
I have to disagree, it misses on a few crucial key points.. I was very seriously considering purchasing one, until I heavily researched them. The Camaro 1LE is closer to the perfect muscle/sports car, compared to the Mustang (GT, anyway.)
Same, I'm a Camaro girl. My twin is a Mustang girl. We're fraternal for a reason I guess 😅. Whenever we go out we always get asked how come we didn't get the same car. Camaro fits me better. We switched cars for a short period but I instantly missed my baby boy. The Mustang interior did an overkill with the screens, one would have been more than enough. I like my traditional gauges, also the center console is deeper in my 23' Camaro. Camaro has a more aggressive look. I'm the older twin, my Camaro is black so people instantly know I'm the oldest and I mean business 😂
The touch screens set off the dash are bad news. Joe, you're doing a good job trying to sell them. Still quite happy w/my '21 GT/6 manual, options galore😁 The new dash layout is a Zonk with a capital Z.
As a lifetime Pony Car owner, l concur that this Gen of Stang is sharper. That has not been the case since the 67 Camaro, which was way cooler than the humble Mustang.IMHO
The rear end looks like a dented soda can. My twin has one. I have a 23' Camaro. I'm the older twin. There's a reason why she trails behind me, I can't get over the rear end if I'm driving behind her. Plus twin A comes before twin B 😅
You're also right about handling. As soon as I drove her Mustang I was like nope, had to get back in my Camaro quick 😂 she always complains that the Camaro hood is too long.
Why did you switch? I have a blacked out 23' Camaro. My twin has a carbonized gray 24' Mustang with the nite pony package. The 6th Gen Camaro was the best one. 🥹 Hopefully they'll bring it back.
Those screens are what made me go ahead and pull the trigger and get a 2022 vs waiting for the 2024. The re-design was nice but I just couldn't get over those screens lol
Seems like FORD is loaded with those 24' Mustangs. It would be nice to see if FORD finally got the 24' Rangers and F150s in! We gotta see the first drive!
Wow, Joe the convertible Mustang looks amazing top up or down, especially in the silver & black!!! Great video! Did you experience any glare on the two screens with the top down???? I know that there isn’t any glare in the coupe. Nice comparison to the Camaro. The coyote engine is definitely superior especially if you add a Super Charger (SC)! As you said in the video the sitting position & view while driving is much better in the Mustang. Now there is a significant different decision to be made if we are considering the SC Camaro ZL1!!!!!! Cheers Joe‼️👍👊💪😎🇺🇸
Joe, great review as always. Just watched the video on the Camero. That one's great too. I can't stand those huge screens. An hour after you drive that car off the lot that screen will be covered in finger prints.
Okay, I am willing to admit I am a Mustang guy. Presently on number 7 which is a 2016 GT convertible in triple yellow. I just finished watching the Camaro segment and I keep getting hung up on the boast of the torque. Yes it has 30 more Ft/lbs BUT it takes 1.2L more engine to get it! Regardless, enjoyed both videos.
I like the roomyness of the Mustang. I would like to at least see an option for a tonto cover, and I'm not a big fan of the billboard style infotainment. I would go with the Mustang over the Camaro.
Been going back and forth between the Mustang, Challenger and Camaro. I like the Camaro just because I've had a few Firebirds in the past but never had the Camaro (preferred the firebird Styling), The Challenger just because I like the Larger size and the 60s look, and the Mustang because I'm older and so the tech packages (like their driving convenience packages, whatever they call it) is pretty appealing when i just want to relax and not "Drive".
Even though the cassettes were made of plastic (largely) but it was one those plastics we love to keep, along with a octagon ball point pen for an occasional fix. 🤣
Nice Machine honestly I'm a mustang Guy All the way but I have a question for Joe and it doesn't have to do anything with the car, what I want to know is that I didn't do things correctly financially and I'm 59 and I want to know from you Joe do you think it's to late for me and I apologize to everyone else that's in your comments for changing the topic hopefully you write back I would really appreciate it thanks and God bless everyone!
The Camaro and Mustang had interesting marketing, Chevrolet was going for the value proposition with the Camaro SS, and they packed it with a lot of standard equipment where Mustang went with something akin to the old Mustang 5.0 LX and then could be optioned up to reach the same level of equipment as the Camaro SS. When the cars were introduced, the Camaro had a little higher price of entry compared to the base Mustang and when the Mustang was optioned up to match the Camaro it would end up more expensive. Ford still follows the same marketing program; you can step into a base Mustang GT which is again more akin to the old LX Mustangs (albeit with the standard level of equipment modern cars come with) and unfortunately a base GT is nearly 43k these days and you can option it up with the Performance Pack and get essentially a Camaro SS (base) for nearly 50k and the equivalent of the SS 1LE is the Dark Horse w/handling pack for nearly 68,500.
I really do feel like pissing people off right now! I want to get ahold of a Mustang, and run it open-header! 😁 And, install a train horn! I'll blare it when folks least expect it! 🚂
Hands down, this Mustang…….i just can’t get past that generic looking and rather sterile dashboard. What in the wide wide world of sports was Ford Motor Company thinking? That dashboard used to have such a MUSTANG look. Now it looks like it’s prepared for electrification……..I HOPE NOT😳
Joe you brought my favorite car again? Don't play with my heart, man my heart works by battery 😅(I'm kidding). such a nice coyote V8 roar. I Love it , You are Awesome on giving Muscle car driving passion to us.
Great video joe but I’m tired of the 10 speed get one with a manual 😆
The styling and proportions are on point.
You nailed that point home David
never understood why they go out their way to block off the front vents why not just keep it functional it never made sense to me lol
Alright Joe I’m team Ford Mustang all of way!!!
Sounds good to me!
Lol😂
@@RaitisRides I don't understand the comparison to the Camaro... Mustang is so far ahead in its own class/league. I don't see the point in comparing it to 3rd place:
Mustang was first
More iconic
Mustang has never stopped being in production while Camaro is on its second death sentence
Mustang sells more
More fun, and more power as you described
Interior is FAR better
I don't understand comparing it when Camaro is not in the same class, ITS NOT EVEN IN THE SAME MODEL YEAR for crying out loud haha.

I agree with e everything you just said. I have one in race red but it isnt convertible a convertible with a stick speed would be a lot of fun
I wish they would offer a removable hard top version
Love that coyote v8 roar!
Tell me about it!
This is one of the prettiest shades of silver I've ever seen. Love these wheels with it, too.
I don't like convertibles but this Mustang is a fantastic car.
Ford does something right with this beauty.......
I feel the same way.
Hey Joe - You did a video asking this same question just a couple weeks ago !
Hi Apostle Joe, I love this new Ford Mustang GT Convertible "The Apostle to the Muscle Cars" and I think this S650 platform looks. Like I've said before, I really love the fake corner vents because without them, the gray corners would look rather plain jain on the metal.
If I’m getting a silver drop top mustang, I’m checking that California special package! The touch of blue looks awesome!
Bro Joe be standin on business in every thumbnail, love it 💀🤣
Less go ! On throttle 🔥🦾
You know it coach
Good video. Nice ride.
This muscle car is just perfect
Especially the color!
I have to disagree, it misses on a few crucial key points.. I was very seriously considering purchasing one, until I heavily researched them. The Camaro 1LE is closer to the perfect muscle/sports car, compared to the Mustang (GT, anyway.)
Yes of course Joe, But I still prefer a Camaro.
Same, I'm a Camaro girl. My twin is a Mustang girl. We're fraternal for a reason I guess 😅. Whenever we go out we always get asked how come we didn't get the same car. Camaro fits me better.

You and me both
If its american muscle cars then its always mustang for me joe!💘🐎
As a Mustang owner and fan I have to say design wise Camaro was nicer, sadly.
The 5.0 indeed sounds great. The most entertaining sound in this video was that sinister laugh as you enjoy driving. LOL Great review as always Joe.
Thanks for letting me share my car passion with you!
Damn, these have gotten expensive!
The touch screens set off the dash are bad news.
Joe, you're doing a good job trying to sell them.
Still quite happy w/my '21 GT/6 manual, options galore😁
The new dash layout is a Zonk with a capital Z.
Such a lazy design. I'll wait until they correct it with the refresh, like they just did with Explorer.
As a lifetime Pony Car owner, l concur that this Gen of Stang is sharper. That has not been the case since the 67 Camaro, which was way cooler than the humble Mustang.IMHO
Yo Don ,…lose that corrupt flag
The 1969 Camaro was the best looking/handling Camaro ever.
The new mustang is one of the best sports cars currently. Probably the best in its price range
The stang looks sharp. Better tech but im not sold completely. I still prefer the handling of the camaro
The rear end looks like a dented soda can. My twin has one. I have a 23' Camaro. I'm the older twin. There's a reason why she trails behind me, I can't get over the rear end if I'm driving behind her. Plus twin A comes before twin B 😅
You're also right about handling. As soon as I drove her Mustang I was like nope, had to get back in my Camaro quick 😂 she always complains that the Camaro hood is too long.
I want one of these but I don;t want the car insurance that comes with it. Maybe in my golden years.
They aint bad
bought one ecoboost conv 2024 last week ... very happy ... before i had camaro for 3 years
Why did you switch? I have a blacked out 23' Camaro. My twin has a carbonized gray 24' Mustang with the nite pony package. The 6th Gen Camaro was the best one. 🥹 Hopefully they'll bring it back.
That is so fantastic to hear! Congrats!
This is the ON THROTTLE Mustang I was waiting for! Thank you, Joe! Mine is on order in vapor blue!😎
You are going to love it!
Thank you,@Rides, and hope to see you on one of my Clearwater trips!😎
Those screens are what made me go ahead and pull the trigger and get a 2022 vs waiting for the 2024. The re-design was nice but I just couldn't get over those screens lol
60k ouch
Seems like FORD is loaded with those 24' Mustangs. It would be nice to see if FORD finally got the 24' Rangers and F150s in! We gotta see the first drive!
I'll go with the one that's made in the US
Where do you think this car is made?

Wow that is one gorgeous car with the silver exterior and the 20" optional wheels!
You have great taste!
Easy answer. Nope!
Camaro platform is much better as a drivers car and steering feel, but for daily driver, only car you have. Then the mustang
Too bad Camaro is dead after 2024
And the 4 door one ?
Challengers also ?
My wife is going to love this convertible but only in Ruby Red. As for me I’ll stick with my 2017 ZL1
Happy wife, happy life.
Has Raiti done a new mustang review that has the "nite pony" package yet?
Camaro is definitely the better handling car.
I’m not a fan of silver colored cars, but this looks amazing!
It really pops so well.
Im 1000 percent ford. But that Camaro front end is beautiful.
Mustang front is just a sporty looking Honda Accord
@@twins4life274Camaro is done buddy. Cry.no on wanted them and this is the 2nd time Chevy has killed off that car in the last 25 years 😂. 👏
@@siphotos3282 yeah I'm aware that's why I got a '23
The trans shifts very quick and smooth. Ford did a great job tweaking the trans.
Laverne and Shirley loves this car!
In the 50’s, making out in the back seats was fun! These seats are great in a drive thru movie parking lot!
A big improvement on 2018 to 2023 s550 outside styling. More in keeping with 2015 -2017 styling better looking.
Dealers here in Maryland are discounting between 6-8000 dollars off the MRSP Mustang gT Convertibles. just saying
You provided a shout out to Todd's Air conditioning while on the highway cruise, you're going to need him in FL.
She’s a beauty Joe………love the silver 😎
I'm team camaro ss
man the new mustang lookin good

Joe I’d love to see a review of the Base GT! all of them so far have been GT premiums
Amazing review Joe.
I really like the car but what i miss is the hard too cover.
I really like hard top cover
Joe and Lori and Steve keep up the good work real true and I love the video 👍
Yeah but with the convertible Camaro, with the top down, you have a seamless look. The mustang’s top is exposed
This car is perfection in every way! Camaro is nice but what MC Hammer would say, “U Can’t Touch This”
So glad Ford is sticking with the Mustang. Phenomenal sound. I just prefer the Camaro styling. I don't find visibility to be an issue in the Camaro.
Love the wheels on this Mustang! Looks just like the S550’s wheels but in alloy!
Yeah they really pop!
I like the roomyness of the Mustang. I would like to at least see an option for a tonto cover, and I'm not a big fan of the billboard style infotainment. I would go with the Mustang over the Camaro.
Nice review. Thanks for calling out Ford on putting that stupid antenna on the back still 🤦🏼
😂😂
Great minds think a like.
Mine has no antenna.
@@erniedukes1603 You must not have a convertible...

Great review as usual. Thanks. Man!
The billboard screens kill it for me. It looks like the dash was a after thought.
The silver stang need black rims
Even though the cassettes were made of plastic (largely) but it was one those plastics we love to keep, along with a octagon ball point pen for an occasional fix. 🤣
I love the way to think!
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Cleanest looking convertible mustang in a while imo
Nice car, nice video...
Staggered wheels? What size are the tires?
I like the pig snout
All great except the ridiculous screens, not integrated and they lost the awesome traditional gauges.
Mustang the best. I love my 24 gt premium.
Nice Machine honestly I'm a mustang Guy All the way but I have a question for Joe and it doesn't have to do anything with the car, what I want to know is that I didn't do things correctly financially and I'm 59 and I want to know from you Joe do you think it's to late for me and I apologize to everyone else that's in your comments for changing the topic hopefully you write back I would really appreciate it thanks and God bless everyone!
I thought those were 4 piston brembos up front ?
Are you showing a mustang or camaro? Ford dealer providing nice Mustang for advertising or Chevy?
😂
I was thinking the same thing.this guy shamelessly plugs Chevy endlessly.
@siphotos3282 normally he gives great reviews. I like his style. But this one he was off his game. Lol
Come on it’s a Strut Tower Brace.

The back end reminds me of the Ford Maverick
Ford must have thought they needed to make the Mustang look like both the Camaro and mustang since Chevy stopped making it
They need to start figuring out how to integrate roll bars into these Mustang convertibles.
That would be a nice touch.
Fonzie from happy days is impressed
John Wick loves this mustang and he will knock the doors off this convertible car!
Nice cruiser.
Obviously more people feel like the mustang gt is better. Look at the sale numbers between the 2 over the past 5 years.
James bond the movie “Gold Finger” has the ford mustang convertible
Speaking of Vanilla Ice, I hear he's renovating houses these days and has a show about it.
Gloss black on the front is a ZONK if you plan do drive this thing. Also might want to rethink going 155 mph in a vert, esp with no hood pins.
I appreciate your thoughts on this one.
Drove both 2024 cqmaro ss and 2024 ford mustang gt. Bought the gt. Mustang sounded better, was faster. Wish i had the money to buy both though.
Steve mcqueen say this bullet is a nice piece mustangs.
Yes
Why would you not have a Camaro beside to do a proper evaluation?
I really do feel like pissing people off right now! I want to get ahold of a Mustang, and run it open-header! 😁 And, install a train horn! I'll blare it when folks least expect it! 🚂
1:20 Just like the corvette isn't the corvette. Chevy should have called the mid engine corvette the Corvair. Like the 60s rear engine Corvair.
I love what you did there!
Hands down, this Mustang…….i just can’t get past that generic looking and rather sterile dashboard. What in the wide wide world of sports was Ford Motor Company thinking? That dashboard used to have such a MUSTANG look. Now it looks like it’s prepared for electrification……..I HOPE NOT😳
Love the car; don’t like the exhaust note!
I think it lost some character in the headlights compared to the previous model.
As good as it already looks, that droptop Mustang needs black wheels and a red interior to really set it off.
Joe you brought my favorite car again? Don't play with my heart, man my heart works by battery 😅(I'm kidding).
such a nice coyote V8 roar. I Love it , You are Awesome on giving Muscle car driving passion to us.
Fonzie from Happy Days says “Aaaaaaaaaaaaa…”
Nah Camaro better. A Camaro won last week in nascar and a Camaro wins today
I want a camaro ss is better
Their isnt anything camaro about those cars but the name
That's why they stop making them.
Well there is no more camaros
Camaro lost twice bro. They quit making them twice for a reason
