i will never sell my 2022 GT500. It's a monster
Just bought a 2021 GT500. It’s truly the most amazing car to drive. It’s what every muscle car should be.
Compared to a new Mustang that thing looks 10 times better than the dark horse!
Even though the interior of S650 is still not great, this interior is worse. No thanks.
@@bobbyjones2112 can’t have a mustang video without bringing s650s into it, so weird. Just appreciate both cars
you are 100% correct...I own one and would never buy the new S650 at this point.
@RepEvox Lol yeah, because the sweeping giant touchscreen is just so much of an improvement. These are better.
@@DrBeef216 did I say that? if so where? are you a paranoid schizophrenic? this interior is a derivative of the 05 interior and looks dated.
This taillights looking much better than the new ones imo. That bloody red look so gorgeous.
This looks wayyy better then the new style
I'm so glad you reviewed this car Joe. Wow, this car has power!
I haven't been in a new Mustang, but I did get to drive a 1967 Shelby GT350H a bunch of years ago. What a thrill!
Ooh man you lucky dog! That is one of my favorites!
1966
It’s not one of the greatest, it is the greatest!🚗
Love to hear it.
Agreed.
Low 10's with drag radials on E85. Pulley upgrade 9's. NHRA changed the rules, any car post 2014 can run down to 9.0 under 153 mph without a roll bar.
Definitely the best performance Mustang built , this car has no rivals in its class. The lap times and acceleration are supercar level
You hit the nail
On the head
2014 GT500 is a beast as well
5.8 Liter Yup Another Good One Love The Body Style as Well
Definitely and stick
My two favorite cars ever are the c7 zo6 and the gt500. Each extremely awesome in their own way!
I think it looks pretty good, but I love how the GT350 of this gen looks much better tbh
You have great taste
This Mustang is sick! Really love the red and black too!
You have great taste
Thank you! The colors on the GT500 are absolutely beautiful
@@TheSpeedDemon64it really pops in the sun
Check out eruption green my fav!
I don’t understand not liking the gloss black. It pops so nice
It looks nice when it's brand new, but shows scratches and smudges more easily. Flat black is better for wear and tear.
@lj5190 I have the tiny gloss black spoiler on my 2022 GT, and I swear that it gets scratches if I turn to look at it too quickly lol. Still love how gloss black pops on a car though
@@lj5190ceramic coats keeps it looking new.
Nice looking car Joe!!!👍
Eruption Green/Brittany Blue Metallic, analog gauges and manual gearbox, (I prefer manual) yees dream car!
The GTD uses an R version of the 5.4 engine regarding upgraded internals and a dry sump oil system for heavy cornering. Ford advertised 815 horsepower. When you build a track car like the GTD. It's not all about horsepower. It's the overall package starting with the 8 speed DCT transaxle. The Multimatic active Areo and Suspension components with a top speed over 215 mph. If you attended the Rolex 24 at Daytona. You saw the Mustang GT3 win the GTD Pro Class with their team car finishing on the podium in 3rd place beating competition like the C8 Z06 GT3-R. Mercedes AMG. Porsche 911 GT3. BMW and Lexus. The GT3 Mustang uses a 550 horsepower 5.4 Ford engine. The GT500 is an aggressive and amazing muscle car. But Ford has taken the Mustang to the next level creating a strong track car with the new S650 Dark Horse and IMSA Dark Horse R racing class that for the first time will compete in WEC at the 24 hours at LeMans along with the Mustang GTD Pro Something that never happened for the S550 GT500.
I’m diggin that color
Rapid Red is one of my favorites, especially with the stripes
@ word
Such a beauty😍
This is the best Review of the year so far...
11 flat quarter-mile? 2020-2022 GT500's have been 10.50s bone stock (Proud owner).
That dash looks 1000% better than the new stick on screens running across the top
Oh God, tell me about it! It’s like they had it right and then had to mess it up.
It's correct. Screens are wrong. We know it and Ford needs to do something about it.
I’d much rather get a s550 mustang and mod it to my hearts content with the leftover money than get a s650. It really is disappointing what they did with the new mustang.
As an S650 owner, I do like the digital dash on the S550 Premiums and Shelby's. However, I do think the infotainment center display is an upgrade for sure, both software wise and physically.
@@S650Ryan Same, The S550 guys cry more than Honda boys.
My only issue is that rotary style gear select, just looks odd in a car like this. Now I’m not some “all muscle cars need to have a manual transmission” gear head, heck I just learned to drive stick like 5 years ago so I’m far from a car aficionado lol, but man, this car would be perfect with a manual transmission.
It looks so crappy, like they took it out of an Escape because they ran out of budget or something lol
I also don't understand why there was no manual. The TR6060 would've been up to the task with just a few small changes.
My Customized Red 2013 3.7lL V.6 with performance Exhaust is the best Mustang ever built! For me😊
V6 are you serious?
@dj4monie fast enough for this old man.
Beautiful beast 🔥🔥🐍
I've seen so many of your vidz but your passion in this n almost in tears I must say I will be coming to test drive this badgirl Monday!!
I should've bought one new for $86K when I had the chance a couple years ago. Amazing car.
Now they are going up
In value
Steven's the most envied passenger prince on the internet
I will relay the message to him!
Joe and Lori and Steve keep up the good work real true and I love the video 💯
Of course it is, never get tired of your Mustang content ..
This and a GT 350 R are definitely timeless classics I definitely want to get one or the other because of its versatility versus a hellcat challenger or charger
I love these mustangs !😊
Great Review. Very nice car
Your drive really showed how much power that engine puts out. Really packs a punch.
Fun Video Joe .
Joe Raitis bangin them fast car babies great Video
That/Those Colors! 😲🔥
Wow,Joe I am a chevy guy, but this car is awesome, l wished I owned one of this iconic cars.😊😊😊.
Yes … yes it is Joe
Thanks for your vote
Love the smile yeah it needs that 6 speed tremmy for sure..
another banger . well done . incredible car and great driving .
Beast of a machine
Smiles per Gallon....the GT500 brings out that raw emotion, just like the GT350 does in the S550. Just brilliant cars!
I rather have this than any S650 gen.
@@Scuderia_Ferrante s650s live in mustang community’s heads rent free
You know I love me some gt500 on throttle action!
This is my dream car I have a picture of it on my wall I can even hear that V8 in my dreams I look at it from sun down to sun up that car is the exact spec car that is on my wall.
Definitely one of the greatest . Love the color combo and the stellar review.
Gotta love that cotton ball sky. Keep On throttling my friend!
The GTD is a very exclusive car, there should be a more accessible car for the rest of the people. It is a shame that there’s no longer a GT 350 and 500.
I agree the Shelby was truly a legend laid to rest too soon.
There's talk at Ford of an S650 replacement coming for the Shelby GT500 which will carry one of Ford Performance owned name tags. The Mustang Cobra or Boss.
I mean there is a new 2024 gt350 and 350R. But I mean nobody likes it
You can't be more happyer than you right now in any European cars
Enjoyed✨✨✨✨ that’s a nice ride
Good review Joe! I will probably never get rid of my 2022 GT500 in eruption green. I’m the only owner of it.
IMO, it’s the best GT500 period! It does everything, I love mine!
9:28 gosh that roar
I know right! Music to
My ears!
"Oh baby, give it to me. Give it to me!" 😂😂
Sort answer yes, I can't wait to own one of these bad boys 😈
That’s the best Looking Mustang ever built IMO. Absolutely gorgeous and love the front end and the nailed it with the whole car.
Mr Raiti the GT500 is my favorite mustang to see in rear view mirror as i pull away from it😂
If things go as planned I’m looking to possibly buy a 2020/2023 Shelby GT500 to join my C6 Vette. Love my manual 6sp/500 HP C6/46,000 miles on the clock. Love banging the gears. Still plans to do a heads/cam package in the LS3 but these Shelby 🐍’s has always had the attention of a Corvette guy. It sure would be a dream stable. Manual Corvette and a duel clutch 🐍!
Really enjoyed watching this one and have seriously considered buying one of these. Though from a fun perspective, to date, I don't think you have topped the "WPM" (Wow's Per Minute) than the Porsche 911 Turbo S review.
The only thing holding it back is the transmission if you want to track it. The dct cuts power when it gets too hot on the quarter mile runs.
In the beginning of the video, this car looks so good it almost looks computer-generated when he's outside of it talking away... great setup, although no manual is a sin but otherwise beautiful
Call me crazy but my favorite Mustang built is either the fox body Mustang GT with ground effects kit (the white/blue color!) or that Mustang bullit they sold with the dark metallic green color. Neither are the fastest but they looked and sounded awesome, plenty enough power for fun, etc. realistically on the street, you’re not going to fully run out a vehicle with all these 800hp vehicles. I currently use a Model Y Performance for a DD and even that in seconds you’re already pushing speeds that’ll send you straight to jail, let alone some crazy super snake model etc
Love the sound, especially the down-shifts. it sounds like a dog growling!
More like a werewolf
Or a serberus
Awesome Mustang!! Great looking color for the GT500! GTD looks great, but I really like the looks better on this GT500.
I have a question: How come the Shelby GT500 didn't get the refreshed front end for the Mustang they release in 2018 Joe?
Because of the extra width of the front end on both the GT500 & GT350
@RaitisRides Ah makes sense
I wish mine was that color! Soooo pretty. Love it!
Sound just doesn't cut it compared to the 350.
This is what I'm talking about! My favorite Mustang ever.....along with the Mach 1. S550 all the way!
That thang is nice I want one sooo bad
You can make it happen
I love the color of this car
I was always a Cobra fan though, in the 90s a Cobra was probably something different than the Shelby 350 and Shelby 500, but it's still a pretty good look though.😕🙂🤓🤠😎😏👍✌️👋👏💪🌾🍀🌿🍃🇺🇲
Love it!!!
I do love this Shelby GT500 & even though this is the apostle to the muscle cars I think CLE did a good job. Now yes, it is far from perfect but love the fake corner vents I think without them you'll just red sheet metal. Plz reply
I always wanted this car. 😢
this car is on fire
20:00 "This was the first dual-clutch transmission in any Ford vehicle".
Nope. The Ford Focus and Fiesta used a dual-clutch automatic that was the subject of class-action lawsuits. I guess you could say that this is the first Ford dual-clutch transmission that actually worked.
The only S550's I liked were the Shelby's. I wish that interior was in my S650 and then it would be perfect.
That's a nice home construction area you found to rip through.
Trying to keep it safe as possible
We can tell when you really like a car and you love this GT500, I wish it was in my garage too. Much better looking than the S650 Dark Horse.
Raiti didn't have this reaction when he bought the last model Challenger. Get the Ford Mustang Shelby GT500!!!! How many more subscribers do you need let's gooo ! Lol
25k Miles on the clock. Passes everything but the gas station. Such a pleasure to drive.
Need a Raiti’s Rides review on a terminator cobra
does this pull harder than the whipple 2024 mustang gt?
Pure hotness🔥🇺🇸
I had a 2018 new mustang GT with Roush supercharger, not the same animal as the GT500, but was a hooligan. Do you think the C8 corvette , or more equivalent to GT500 a Z06, is a more refined sports car and better choice? I drove my Son's 2019 Camaro V8 and it handled much more confidentially than my Mustang even before I added the roush SC. Thoughts Sir?
Now we talking that’s the real deal
I think this is my favorite Mustang.
They should've had those slim bumpy seats like those Mustangs in the 60s, yeah they should've also gave it a regular shifter too though. I wouldn't go all the way and agree with you to the manual shifter degree, but yeah I don't think the rotary shifter is a muscle car type of theme though.
GT500 was discontinued in 2022, no such thing as a 2023 GT500....
Fixed it! Thanks for the heads up
lol
@ you’re the greatest to do it raiti! Keep up good work man
I definitely think it’s in that conversation it’s almost the most perfect mustang
It’s a toss up netween the R and the Cftp. Both are phenomenal cars.
You don't need to use the paddles. The transmission shifts faster in automatic mode instead of manual mode
So much $. Love it Joe.
I LOVE mine!!!! May never sell "Apollonia" now that Ford won't be making anymore factory Shelby's. Will be calling Fathouse Performance soon.
I think it might be worth it if buying a favorite vehicle is not a headache over leasing
Another beautiful Ruby Red Machine ! This is NOT a teenagers car, you need to know what you are doing driving this car or you can hurt yourself and others in another car if you are not careful and don't forget to buy two or three radar detectors while you are at it.
Joe the gt500 has only ONE size front splitter (both CFTP and standard version - same splitter). The gt350R has a larger front splitter versus standard gt350, but not the 500.
Yep, another mustang 😃……years ago my boss had a ‘68 Shelby gt500kr……loved that car 😍
Is there a manual?
Really wish I had bought one before they stopped making them. Now it seems like a steal for that price compared to what we get now.
Ford Should’ve kept the side vent on the fender like the 350. Look more aggressive
