I've never seen you look happier! That was an amazing ride!
Such polished presentation these days
Thank you so much!
You guys always make me smile. I have an ecoboost which always gives me between 10.5 L and 11.0 L in the city. It has 19 inch wheels, I find the ride quality very good. Also, I applaud how quiet the car is, road and engine noise are well suppressed.
I'm doing 7L in highway going at 110Km and 10L in the bad roads of Montreal but you are spot on the ride quality has nothing to do with the older stangs
You’ve sold me this car, expecting delivery to Yamba on the beach , Australia, July 22nd. The V8 “roar” sounds awesome in my lounge room over my surround sound speakers.
You’re both so right, it never gets old!😀
Fun fact about my Wife. This was almost 4 year ago. She COULDN'T SLEEP after taking a test drive of 2018 5.0 Mustang GT premium at the local dealer. Needless to say. We went and pick up her new ride the following weekend.😉
Awesome!! 👌
Had a 2017 California GT convertible and now a 2021 hardtop GT with the PP1 package and LOVE it! Great review
I’ve had my 18 G.T. Ragtop since new, love it and look for excuses to drive. Mine is lightning blue metallic and people just love the colour. It’s equipped exactly like this one and the adaptive exhaust is awesome ! The sound is really the core and that sweet Coyote motor never disappoints.
Could a tall driver use it? I am tall 6' 6" and could not fit in a corvette or camaro but would like a sporty convertible.
You guys are wild!!!!!! And what a fun review , thoroughly enjoyed it, Great Job!!!!
Thank you so much!
Years ago I owned a 1990 Monster Miata (Mustang 5 litre/5 speed conversion). I'd often pull into a gas station or parking lot and have guys look around for a Mustang with that V8 rumble.
Then they'd realize that sound was coming from a little Miata. Priceless!
Awesome story!
I always wanted to drive one of those!
I really enjoyed this review! You both looked like you had so much fun with this Mustang GT!👍 Thanks for the feedback on the 10 speed transmission!
Thank you so much, we had a lot of fun.
Great review. Thank you!!
Nice presentation. Smart couple. Changing POV's. They deserve several Oscars including best actress, actor and dialogues.
I own a 2015 GT premium coupe in manual with the performance pack in yellow. It’s a great car and been a blast to drive for the past 4 years. The newer ones with the upgraded interior, tech and suspension improvements are worth looking at. I think it’s time you put one in the family stable. Fun review! Cheers
Thanks for sharing, it would be a fun one to have!
Such a beautiful cover pic (people & car). Got me to watch the video every time I see this !
Another great video! Thanks guys!
Our pleasure!
Loved the review and loved the car, especially the sound of that V8.
Thank you so much!
Best car reviewers on UA-cam!!!
Awe, thank you so much!
😆 That’s the best ending where Zack ask you you would consider Mustang! Aaawww the lovebirds! Awesome video guys! 👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you, so glad you liked it!
@@andreaspencer9813 I enjoy it very much!
I had great fun with this video! Greetings from Ecuador 🇪🇨
So happy to hear this, thank you!
Great review. Hope you guys are managing the extreme weather.
Thank you, it was really hot but much better now.
Greetings from Germany! Got a Mustang GT Convertible in Twister Orange. Absolute eyecatcher.
Great review as always. The Mustang has to be one of the most iconic designs ever. I absolutely love them. It was a hard choice last year when I bought a new car. The Mustang or my unbelievable Stinger GT. Stinger won because of the overall package in my opinion. If I do get another car it will be a Mustang just because it is a Mustang.
Cheers from Oz.
The only downside I can tell in the US is that you can't get the Magneride shocks with the convertible package.
And she's wrong, the default transmission in this car is the 6-speed Tremac transmission.
Think this is my 17th Mustang. 2020 GT. All the extras. Every generation of Mustang is improved. My two continues gripes are the radio graphics and the sound system. The graphics looked better to me in the 2014 model for example with the built in mp3 hard drive. I have the upgraded B&O system, great improvement to the 9 speaker system but that bass still needs to kick more. Remember the Mach 1000 system with the dual mounted trunk subs and the amps on the rack. Was so cool.
I am glad you are driving a real American muscle car. Great review.
Thank you so much, very fun!
Dear Lord, i want that white Mustang GT convertible.... but I live in the snowbelt. Summer nights driving it would be heavenly.
That V8 gives better mileage than my Ecoboost and the V8 is a Hell of a lot cheaper to repair as well.
On the Ecoboost, to replace the timing belt, they have to take the front cover off the motor… that’s a thousand dollars there, just to take the cover off and put it back on. Under that cover is the timing belt, the water pump and the oil pump.
Talk about screwing the consumer over for repairs.
While I had the cover off, I replaced all three.
$ 3600.
Not a hope in Hell I’d ever buy another Ecoboost.
Crappy engine in the long run, too. Get the 8.
Got a 2020 gt convertible,love it!!!
When you said “thank you Ford” I thought you said thank you lord.
Our Ford, who art in Michigan.
@@nolij7765 hahaha
Oh God Oh God. Don't stop.
Awesome video
Good review. Mach 1 review pleas. Also 5 videos a week.....wowza. You both are the most hardworking UA-cam auto reviewers out there. MACH 1 , MACH 1 MACH 1
GT350 FOR ME
@@Motormouth... Nice car, but plagued with issues. Owners are suing Ford in federal court for $228 million. The lawsuit claims that transmissions and differentials on their high-performance pony cars are allegedly overheating at high speeds, sending the car into limp mode.
Thank you, glad you liked it!
Awesome review ‼️
Thank you! 👍
My wife & I rented the GT hardtop in Vancouver. It was way too OBNOXIOUS for her in both sound and colour (Kermit the Frog green). I applaud Ford for making this Beast still though. Thanks again for the fine review!
It is so loud, you want attention, you've got it with this one. Thanks for watching!
@Hugh MacIsaac lol! Our neighbours were pretty good about it all when we had it for a week. But I guess they knew it was going.
This generation of Mustang GT (2015+) is the sweet spot in the lineup, with all you want (smooth reliable V8, nice interior, limited slip etc) but none of the expensive high maintenance stuff (carbon wheels, back breaking ride etc). No price markups either. More expensive then they used to be, but comes with a lot more than it used to.
Thanks for sharing!
The 15MPG City/24 HWY numbers are ridiculous! For a V8, I have absolutely no idea how they made an engine that big to crank out so much horses while sipping some little gas. Ford could make a pure sports car and lose the air cooled/ heated seats and other bell and whistles and this thing could sell like hot cakes. Love it!
They have these in the Philippines and there's no way I'd buy anything other than the V8. Screw fuel economy, that sound, that rumble, heaven..
Great review guys! Zack, I didn't know you were such a huge Mustang fan. Who knew..
No, he's always loved the Mustang!
Mustang GT350 and 911 GT3 Touring would be one hell of a garage!
Great review as always. We are definitely hitting a bit of a final hurrah for big V8 motors.
Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed it.
Great job and great car. 🙂
Great car 5.0 amazing! Great review!
Thank you! We had so much fun!
I have a 2018 GT Manual Convertible with Performance Pack and MagneRide and the upgraded interior, it is a BEAST!
That's the car!
WOW!
That’s awesome!! Have you found it to be really reliable too? Any perf mods? I just drive a friend’s vert with the gt manual perf pack the other day and it sure sounded nice with the active exhaust!
I agree with Zack ,don’t like black wheels . It’s way overrated. I like some bling on my shoes,
GOOD VID!
How is the road noise with the top up at 110kph, i.e., on the highway? Is the soft top insulated for sound or a simple one layer top? Thanks !
Nice review
I am currently in a 2011 MB cabriolet, and have a 2021 Eco boost premium convertible on
order. itching that it'd be here yesterday especially after these reviews.
Nice looking mustang. 🤓😃⭐👍🐎
2019 Ford Mustang GT 5.0 black convertible my baby❤️
as they say..there is no replacement for displacement...always liked these..even being a Mopar guy...the Mustang transcends brands..it is just a great car...period..Zach...keep working on Andrea..have a feeling she would love to look good in one of them..Happy Canada Day.
Happy Canada day! Oh he'll keep working on convincing me. lol!
I have a 2016 convertible 3.7 L V6, Ford no longer offers that engine. I paid $24,000 with 22,000 km in 2018! What a bargain. I did some mods; upgraded stereo, new K&N air intake, lowered 1 1/4” all around, new front rear sway bars, 19” wheels, and chipped it to about 330hp. few things worth mentioning; the styling never gets old, it has a classy look that will stay current for years, the trunk is relatively HUGE, I golf a lot and the trunk easily holds my push cart and full size golf bag without removing longer golf clubs, try that other convertibles! My only regret, I purchased a black car…. Now I’m a slave to keeping the $#!?* thing clean…… excuse me I have to go wash my car AGAIN >:-/ lol ….
rented the v6 version recently and it was a freakin hoot. hadn't been in one since the late 90s, when it seemed like everyone had a foxbody 5.0, and the new one reminded me of the old one which was a delightful thing. as much as i love german coupes this mustang really hits the right buttons, just need to get my hands on a 5.0!
A v6? There is no V6.
@@Platos-Den There was, they only killed it off a few years ago. You can still find it at plenty of rental places
Outstanding value for 💸 money, good looking cheap sportscar, it's a winner and a hit here in Australia,okay,really common nothing special or unique, but they sell 'em by the truckload here, fantastic for a Sunday drive and a coffee, thumbs up👍
Indeed it is a great looking car. I absolutely love the looks of it. See quite a few in Sydney. Not sure about value for money when compared to the Stinger GT. I did the exercise and bought the Stinger GT. Also in Oz the Mustang get a 3 star NCAP rating which is surprising. My friend has a Mustang and it is sensational. Absolutely love them.
HI guys! Nice to see you again. Perfect car for the summer....well almost perfect if it weren't for the high heat! How are you guys doing in this heat? It's like either not enough or way too much. prayers to all those who are negatively impacted by the heat wave. Did you see her smile when you said, "Hit it!" You guys look great. Enjoy your summer.
The worst of the heat has passed, we were fine, we have A/C!!
Thank you for putting up the reliability and value retention numbers! Can that be done in all new car videos? Great review!
Yes, absolutely
We are doing it for every review now 👌
@@andreaspencer9813 awesome! This is why I love you guys !
@@chrisdblue Thanks! It's very important information to give out, no one really does it.
Great review! I would take my Gt in coupe form, with a manual 👍
NICE!
Beautiful, if you don't mind it being ubiquitous Nice review
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it.
Magnaride is a must have.
I will take the basic GT with the handling performance package at under $50K... I think, it's the best bangs for the bucks today!
I considered a Premium convertible but by the time I configured it, it was more than I was willing to pay.
Enjoy! Thanks for watching
Sorry Zack! The black wheels rule! I showed my daughter (16) the car with the bright wheels and she said "now it just looks like a regular car." So there you go - the kids know what's up!! :) Enjoyed this vid tho!
Gas prices July 2021 😱
Comminting to work 80 miles
Can be very expensive, that's why my pony ecoboost works for me
I hate black wheels, too! I'm hoping we hit peak black wheels earlier this year and the pendulum is swinging back towards shiny wheels.
Do they drive in snow??
A Porsche will feel like a fancy French handbag, so it's natural women will lust over one, but the Mustang is like the very fun gf or bf who just has sooooooooo much fun. It's irreplaceable. Mustang all the way (V8 of course!)
I do love the Mustang!
I hope that you are enjoying So Ca. IE weather? Funny you are hotter than So Cal.
Such a beautiful, timeless design. The best by far since the original, for me.
I believe 5.0 has its own features and it's damn good too
But EcoBoost has its own features, u can have sports car in way less with great economy. Not a big fan of high performance package as it doesn't make any sense. In that case we can go for 5.0.
Also 5.0 is not a daily driver considering the gas prices which are 1.75 per liter of gas right now in BC
Question: Why the Ontario license plate when filmed in BC?
The car manufacturer head office is in Ontario and this is most likely a corporate demo so they would have licensed and shipped the plates to BC
You mentioned a 4500 hundred dollar option which I thought you we talking about magna-ride but the you said that was 2k and together expensive. What is the 4500$ option? Still don’t know.
Performance package.
Good looking couple! Andrea is really fit I saw her guns on her arms! Must be working out a lot with her hubby
Thank you, I do work out quite a bit. - Andrea

Serious question Manual transmission or automatic, I have been driving a manual since 85, is the new Mustang manual transmission still cursed with a bad tranny?
According to many, yes the manual tranny is still bad. However the tremec available in other trims is much better
@@ckarsenal Thanks I thought maybe they would change it out this year.
Stop choosing those beautiful spring days in Vancouver for your reviews! Maintain the myth of the Canadian Pacific Southwest and US Pacific Northwest as chilly, wet, gray environments. Now that we've moved here it's time to pull up the drawbridge. 😜
Lol!
My spare tire is also included... :-)
Zack, Andrea did Brian drop off the Mustang after he wrapped his review? 😉
No, we actually had it before him
No, we had it before him, just had other vehicles to put out first.
love the car but i get tried of the noise of my fellow citizens racing around
I got my Miata Club with 2k miles for 22k. I would rather have the Mustang but double the price.
@Hugh MacIsaac Miata handles like a dream but I always with it had a turbo or a little more get up and go. I know the Fiata has a turbo but probably not as reliable. I would love a v8.
I like the Night Life, you are the only one that I've seen doing it?
Think so
Zach … you need the Mach 1 with a manual tranny … Andrea WOULD love it too 😆😊😉.
Happy Canada Day !!!
Happy Canada Day!
In Australia it's $82000
Why doesn't the convertible need the magneride?
The body is less rigid despite having some extra weight to brace it underneath so it might be a waste. Personally I ordered mine with Magneride anyway...
How come the speedometer is going the opposite way Zack? Oh that's the fuel gauge. LOL. There's a guy who drops his kids off in his 911. Yes the kids fit in the back!! Ok That makes this look like a serious family car!! Let me ask my wife!!
Love your reports . Note that this car is dead in France . The Convertible GT V8 costs 56 400 € but gets... 30 000 € of taxes !!! Crazy country.
You can tell when Zach likes a car because the dad jokes come out with some very bad intentions
If Ford screws up the next Mustang without the world famous 5.0 V8, they are killing an icon. 3.5 Ecoboost with mild hybrid is no replacement for a V8. If they are going of what those enviromentalist wants by killing an iconic ICE engine, I would rather see they kill the Mustang instead.
But just don't called an EV SUV Mach-E a "Mustang" for god's sake. I agreed with Jim Kenzie of Motoring at this point.
Another great review!!!! ❤️ it!! What a life!!! hot car, hot wife, fast cars!! Best car review channel on UA-cam Whoohooo!!!
Wow, thank you so much!!!
Look just go buy a BASE GT & your good / IMO / Soon before the V8's Are history !!!
I’ve got a 3.5 Ecoboost.
If Ford decided to stop using the V8, it’d be No more Ford for me.
Just sayin
Both of you were practically giddy over this car....it sounds great but 50K to start? idk
We had a lot of fun with it.
Mach 1 or a Corvette?
GT350
Does it come with a sun roof?
Lol
Unlike the Camaro. No sunroof option on Mustang coupe.
Lol! Witty
Mustant MAch E Next?
Two weeks
Yes coming up mid July.
So basically the car depreciates at $500 usd per month..
"It doesn't come with for xxxx dollars amount"..." as a option for XXX is a far better way to say that..
Still prefer the old school round head lights built between 2005 to 2009 IMHO
A tall blonde and a mustang. I'm reliving my youth. Stupidly, I didnt hold on to either.
I've driven both convertible and coupe, convertible is way cooler
Just tell your Karen neighbors "Take off!" Tell em the exhaust is factory! I wouldn't mute my car!
And you still have to twist a 20 year old handle to get the convertible top started. Unbelievable.
5L engine seems to be overspec....
2.3 looks fit for citizen.
