    That’s wild. As a young man fresh out of college, working my first real job, I bought a brand new 2002 Mustang GT in Mineral Grey color, with all the options I wanted on it for $23,000 out the door. It was easily affordable to me then. Now as a 45 year old, working in my career for 18 years, this new Mustang GT is completely out of reach for me. The price of new cars is crazy.

Prices are still crazy, but if someone buys a car they truly love and plan on keeping it for 10+ years, it doesn't seem as bad paying a high price. Provided that person can afford it in the first place.

    Hey Joe, great review. I drove the GT yesterday myself. My son owns a Ford dealership. The car is definitely impressive. I sat in the car playing with both screens for about 30 minutes prior to ever driving it. I had absolutely no issues at all using the AC controls while driving. It really only takes time to get familiar enough to know where to look for the controls. I was very surprised at how soon that I adapted to the two screens. The level proximity to my eyes makes viewing the screens second nature and doesn’t distract from driving the car!!! Ford has hit a grand slam with the S650. I drove a 2022 GT PP1 car immediately afterwards and found that I ultimately desired the S650 over the S550 hands down no chance at all to select the 6th gen over the 7th generation. The GT feels like sitting in a cockpit, as a Fighter Pilot, I noticed this immediately!!!
    I attended a seminar last month put on by the Ford engineers and they reviewed 113 new & improved areas on the new GT. The S650 is definitely a new and improved generation by leaps and bounds. The steering, braking, handling, acceleration, transmission (both 6M & 10Spd auto were enhanced), seat position, sound (from the exhaust & B&O stereo), comfort and ability to push the car with more confidence obviously makes this S650 a better Mustang GT. The aerodynamics, downforce are also improved. This Mustang has the lowest coefficient of drag of any Mustang!!! More downforce of any GT. It is soundly an improvement as a new generation should be. Ford kicked ass on this S650. Also the engineers stated that Ford released the ECM encryption to Whipple, RTR & another company. So most new owners, should by this time next year, have the ability to mod their S650 just like they would have modded their S550. We were told that by having the over the air company updates that Ford is not legal to change your enhanced modifications on your ECM. Granted many people are not open to change. That’s understandable. But I really didn’t like the rear end of the GT at the September reveal but seeing it in person yesterday I completely changed my opinion and absolutely like the back side better now. The painted panel, as opposed to the past cars back panel being black, changes the appearance significantly and I changed my opinion after seeing the new tail lights and lower diffuser area when comparing the two generations side by side. I believe we will see numerous Mustang GTs on the road!!!
    Lori you did a fantastic filming job as always. Great work by you both!!!! Blessings to your family!!!🔥💪💕😎🇺🇸✝️

      Heavens-sake dude, I have zonks: Ford should have put the Tremec 6 spd in the GT, but Ford is cheap. That’s why I ordered a Dark Horse. I was pissed that the Recaro seats didn’t come heated/ventilated as advertised at the September reveal but Ford decided since the normal Recaro seats are 36 pounds lighter they made the proper decision to save on weight. There should be an option to delete the back seats like in the previous GT 500, but you cannot do that on the DH. The dead pedal needs to be larger & match the other pedals. There are numerous zonks but after all it is not a Porsche, Mercedes Benz nor BMW. Overall it is a much improved Mustang and that’s why I ordered it. I have better vehicles in my stable. Be positive, people respond to good attitudes not BS Comments!!!

      Manual is fun, but it's also a pain when you get stuck in high traffic. It can get mundane sometimes when you're just driving.
      Plus people don't expect you to have stick anymore so they get right on your ass at stops.
      One of the biggest things is the quality of the Getreg they carried over. Because it seems to be an unreliable piece of junk.
      For me personally I would go with the 10-spd on the GT specially if you just want a fun daily.
      If it was going to double as an autocross or track toy, I would get the Dark Horse with that sweet Tremec.

    Excited to hear the positive feedback, seeing as I've had mine ordered for the last almost 4 months now. 😅 A little concerned about the steering feel (both you and Throttle House mentioned it) since I'm coming from the new 2023 Type R. That car carves through corners and everything about the drive feels amazing. I'm hoping the Mustang doesn't disappoint too much, but considering the advantages, I think a little give in the steering is reasonable.
