10/10 for that Stranger Things reference
How many airbags??? What safety features? Abs brakes? Traction control?
Damn. That magnetic color looks damn good. 51k on a Mustang is expensive though but its got the digital cluster and magneride suspension which I want.
How about test driving in real world conditions, stuck in traffic? Would you still pick a manual over auto?
Iconic car, such a beast!
Claire Kennedy I still love my 392..a cat delete and some drag radials and I got em....more comfortable too....10 speed is dope though
Interesting switch on the transmission recommendation between this and last year's California Special convertible review. On the CA convertible you recommended the old 6 speed auto. I'm wondering if that is because that car is more of a "cruiser" and this one is held to a higher performance standard.
I tested 10 speed yesterday, 6 speed today. I'd definitely pick the 10 speed! It felt a lot quicker.
Demogorgon from Upside Down - Awesome! I want this car BAD!
If your knee is resting on the door panel -or console for that matter, you’re not seated properly in relation to the pedals.
i have 14 tracpac and don't want to give up my solid rear axle
Wickedly. Must be from New England.
Fully loaded camry is almost $40.000 nowadays. What expensive for V-8 fully loaded sport car are you talking about?
ShaneO Radiosho what a better deal than this? Just wondering your opinion?
ShaneO Radiosho I'm asking what is a better deal for $55 if you think it is expensive for the mustang?
Georgii Arakelov I get what you mean. And besides the camaro SS there is no better deal for the package at 55k. No other companies offer what these two offer for the price. As much as I love dodge, they don't offer the same all around performance and technology for that price. Yes it's expensive for a mustang because mustangs normally come in around 35-42k. But even at 50k there's is no better bargain besides the 6th gen 1LE. Now you could buy a slightly used GT350 for under 55k now so that's probably a better deal.
So how much does the V8 model cost with stick shift and a LSD?
falchulk I just want to know if you can get that under $35k? If so I'm interested
That would be a GT with ZERO options (6 speed manual and LSD are standard).
$35,995 MSRP
lysergic acid diethylamide you really do want to back to the sixty's
Blake Swan you can. Wait a couple of months keep your eyes on Ford's monthly incentives
did they trash that lousy transmission t-82 in the 18 ??
Cupholder is still in the way of my right elbow for a manual transmission.
This car is too good for you.
Are you reviewing a mustang or a kia??
Front end, inspired by Nissan 370z Nismo.
I really want that new 370z Nismo too.
Dema from the upside down lmao
Ford's moto for the Mustang used to be "Fast, Fun, and Affordable". That $51,000 price tag for a GT. Would make me immediately pay the extra $5,000+ for the GT-350. Mainly due to the depreciation. Standard run of the mill Mustangs don't hold their value at all. (Pretty much the second the tires leave the lot they drop in value by $8,000. The GT350 and the GT-350 R and the upcoming GT-500 will hold their value down the road much better than a Premium GT. (Or any other version)
Scott only problem is that many dealers have marked up the Shelby’s by thousands.
If you find anything as fast and nice for the same price I will be impressed
Lately Ford's MSRPs have been crazy high I think you can get the car for $48k, but discounts are not available on a GT350. Also you really want to get the PP2 package on the GT, not PP1+magneride which is what this guy had.
Car review editors always mention MSRP pricing. If you pay that when buying a Ford product, then you are not buying wisely. Most Fords have Factory, and dealer rebates and other incentives. There are exceptions like the GT350 and other special edition models that dealers will even mark up over MSRP! But for the most part, you can get pricing below MSRP significantly.
I love the new 2018 Ford Mustang, but what I think would be even cooler if Ford would take the Mustang logo and put it on the hood similar to an AMG Mercedes-Benz. I think it would give it an even more unique look and make the grill look a lot cleaner!
Hi cargurus, I'm one of thousands of guys that go to your website to day dream about buying cheap sports cars that are still way to expensive for me.
Horsepower is way more than what they claim if you put it on a dyno. With a 16 or 17 percent you are at 493 to 497 crank horsepower
I've seen 504-507 on a 16% drive line loss. Remember, crank minus 16%, not wheel plus 16%.
Are you diving by .84 or multiplying by 1.16? Because those two aren't the same lol.
Plus a HUD is still missing
the last real mustang that required you to drive it and not it driving itself was the s197, in fact for me, the s197 is last mustang
Drive test one youll see why its woth 50,000..its great car..fast and nimble..aster than scatpack challenger..0 to 60mph..
Good review. That 10 speed auto would be expensive to fix I bet. I prefer the hood on my 15 vs the sloped down look. i like seeing the bulging hood while driving. I understand its not good for aero. Too bad the mustang’s price no longer makes it the working mans affordable muscle car imo. So yes buy used since these cars depreciate like rocks. A great car still ... just getting close to corvette pricing.
The auto trans didn't downshift when you braked into a corner? Whaaaaaaaaat!!!!!
Ford says that it goes 0-60 in less than 4 seconds, since I am really lazy and I won’t find an empty backroad I am gonna take their word for it...
I can never get over how expensive these cars are.
ItzMorphinTime22 they wonder why no one buys rwd sports cars anymore. Maybe because they have all become $50k. I'm not paying that
The price reflects whats offered. If you want to save 20 grand then buy a Toyota.
Blake Swan considering a fully loaded Toyota Camry v6 is 40 grand it's not bad. Plus this has the performance pack which is miles better than 2015 version and this also has magnetic shocks it's not bad
love the mustang logo but dont like it in the middle of the grill,
just saying
Not judging, but why buy an auto 5.0?
New automatics are pretty quick. I tried the 10 speed automatic yesterday, it was very quick! The only issue was when I tried to use paddles, there was some 2 seconds delay from the moment I shifted up or down and when it actually changed the gear:|
An automatic doesn’t read minds it reads sensors in the vehicle and can’t respond to ever nuance that it encounters thats why there’s paddle shifters for spirited driving as a reviewer you should know that, in manuals you also miss gears so whats the difference I know because all I drive are Manuals currently own a 2017 2SS manual, the same thing happens in any auto car no matter the price there are limitations to all automatics my next car will be an automatic I love the new ten speeds.
He is wrong about a number of things. You can disable EVERY nanny while driving with a button or toggle switch.
Ford made the front of this car look more like my mom ex station wagon from the 60s and 70s. Upgrade the technology but keep the car looking like a muscle car rather than a space mobile
I only like the mustang convertible
It’s a catfish, the one before was a hammerhead shatrt
For 51K I would buy a gently used GT350
Good luck with that. They are selling for at or over new on the secondary market
Regular GT350s are on Carmax for $49-55k in my area with under 10k mi. I guess the new 2018 models are about as fast so the value dropped on Shelbys.
$51,000 US??? That's ..ummm...remarkable
Dude, great review, but like all things new, you have to use and learn. The 10 speed is a marvel of technology, but you have to learn to use it. In other words, your assessment of Ford's 10 speed auto is menial at best.
Dam no more v6
Yawn. Anyone from MT or C&D as well as a dozen YTers would have tested that 0-60 no problem.
Should have taken out the 6 spd. Yikes.
Stick shift option is a bit cheaper. I’ll stick to my current mustang.
This is why you buy a used 3 year old mustang GT and save 20K.
He said save 20k not buy it for 20k. I see 2015 mustang gt base models going for 25-26k now. 435 hp is more than enough I feel
Varun Menon yea of course base models depreciate lower. theres nothing special about them. But a premium with magnaride and the performance pack would retain more value
used muscle car is one of the worst decisions, esp a stick, all to often people sell them because they have abused them way to much, not knowing how to treat them. buy at your own risk.
Something is seriously wrong with the world, there’s so much corporate greed. The Mustang was always supposed to be an affordable sports car, that was the origin of its design. I have a 2006 Mustang GT Premium that cost me $30,000 out the door in 2006. Now this new one is $51,000, that’s a 70% price increase. I guess in that amount of time again the new GT will be selling for $87,000. People’s salaries are not even increasing enough to keep up with these ludicrous price increases which span more than just the automotive sector.
Your 2006 Mustang GT Premium is a piece of shit, and was a piece of shit when you bought it. You can't compare that car to what it is today, and that's counting differences in standards throughout the years. The GT today starts off at 35,000. If you don't want fancy clusters or magnetic suspensions or heated steering wheels (all of which didn't even exist in 2006 for your GT )don't pay for that kind of shit and the price won't rise to 51,000. Use your brain.
Lol I drive a 4000 Japanese Luxury car that has more power to the wheels than you can count to, you inbred. And you probably couldn't afford it at the age of 40 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Visually, I can't tell that the front changed at all.
52k mustang gt?! Damn
His complaint about the transmission not down shifting when he wanted it to is absolutely ridiculous. If you want it to down shift you have to pull the down shift paddle. That's exactly why the paddles are there. That's like complaining that a manual transmission won't shift for you...
Ugg! I hate it when ppl vlog, drive and look at the camera. You don't have to look at the dang camera. Simple fix, point the camera down the road or stick it out the car or better yet, stick it on your head. Drive first, look at the camera never.
$52k? lmao
First time I see you in a 2 door car
Hammerhead shark . Ford were losing our pony!!!!!
Nice car but not for $51,000
James E. Its with options he have fully loaded gt with magnerized suspension option
That's a very loaded mustang, base price is at $35k and $39k for the premium.
My friend bought loaded mustang exactly like that for 43k wtf. On white fyi
Just wanted to ask or point out that. My brah just bought loaded GT exactly like this video(but hes on white) for 43k. How could GT in this video reached $51,000 ? that all iam asking
It is a really nice car, but at almost 52K I would take a low mile Challenger Hellcat any day over it. I do like the new styling of the GT,s front end and its a good-looking ride, but the lines and sinister old school hot looks of the Mopar together with all that incredible power just does it for me. When Hellcat was released in 2014, it singlehandedly set the standard and was the #1 car in the land. Lol so if that wasn't enough Dodge does one better and recently released Demon, I'm sure its giving the engineers at GM and Ford fits lol.
Catfish front end...
This car isn’t really all that expensive seeing you get a 460 hp v8 + fully loaded car lol
Cedric Henry right. Considering the v6 Toyota Camry full loaded is $40,000
51k
- $20,000
+ 0% finance
+ $10,000 off for showing up to ford
And plastic interior
With belts that snap every 10k Miles
+ 57 gears you will only feel lag while looking like a limp bizcut fan who got a settlement
51,000 for a mustang and over 70,000 or a expedition!? No way!!
you need to learn how a automatic transmission works.. 😂.. First of all you need to understand and feel the transmission when you driving the car
Interior materials is wack
This guy is boring me to death...
So they basically playing catch up with chevy camaro ss
I really don't like its design
So all the changes but yet another fail on safety. A new hero car in 2018 that is not 5 Star??????? I guess it is a bit like Monty python “Dont mention the war” when it comes to ANCAP safety.
2004 is better
Wow! Overpriced and undersized interior! Evidently, I need to be a "loaded" smaller in stature sized person to qualify. Too bad, I'm just gonna have to pass then...Too bad for me?
Edysin Simon is going down to the game and it was so much fun with like can I love you too a
Looks horrible
I'm Not a Ford Guy and it takes so Much $$$$ to Compare to any Camaro for less you get More in the Camaro... I'm a Chevy Guy!
No they don't for Added performance and Handling as Ford Mustang does... Just look at it through all Models of the Camaro... You get More for Less from GM..
Carroll Chevy is inconsistent and dodge is straight garbage...ford best American brand
Hot garbage for 50 grand plus..Lol gtfoh
Good Review. Love the sound of the new exhaust
