  • The fifth generation 2018 Ford Mustang GT is a modern, rear-drive performance coupe. But even great cars can benefit from a refresh now and again. We take a look at the 2018 Mustang GT to see how both visual and engineering changes make this icon even more of an automotive thoroughbred.

Was a problem convincing the cops and courts this is what happened because I was fine standing next to my race red California edition of this car and the family that hit me had minor injuries in their giant SUV.

      cadsux I looked at the v8 Lexus. I’m sure it’s got superior design than the coyote. But it’s double the price I’m sure Richie rich sports folks will buy the Lexus. Honestly even if i has the money for the Lexus I wouldn’t throw that much into a vehicle. You’ll be looking over your shoulder all the time , thinking who’s going to accidentally hit you

    Cars don't need 90% of the features on this Mustang like dynamic cruise, lane departure, or collision warning. All it does is drastically increase the price of cars for features any good driver does not need. Sadly, if the Mustang didn't have these features car reviewers would complain head over heals about the lack of "tech". Now that this Mustang has the features, car reviewers complain about the price! Unbelievable...

    Thing drives me nuts is people complain about the interior of this thing. It'll run an 11 second quarter mile from the factory!! And then they say a M3 which costs 30 grand more has a better interior...well, no shit. Though they neglect to mention the repair bills on the BMW when it's out of warranty and that 5.0 coyote is still howling along.

    My Dad told me the story of why he didn't buy a Mustang in 1966. He was going to the dealership to purchase one when my Mom told him that she was preggers. My Dad thought he would do the responsible thing and get a "family car" which meant he bought the Fairlane 500. So I missed out on the Mustang back then but my Dad and I talked about buying one over the many years since. He passed earlier this year after a brief illness that caught us all by surprise. He left me some money which gave me the option of finally getting that elusive Mustang. This video sums up why I love this iconic Pony Car. If one car could sum up what is great about America, it is the Mustang. I looked at several Mustangs but I just couldn't bring myself to buy one. The Mustang isn't a practical daily driver for me and it doesn't come cheap. So I reluctantly passed on the 'Stang and bought a Kia Soul Exclaim with the Turbo. The Turbo 4 puts out more horsepower (201) than many of the V-8 Mustangs of my youth (70s - 80s) and the V-6 Mustangs through 2004. So that will have to be my substitute in this lifetime unless I hit the lottery. That's when I skip the GT and go order up the GT500 with all of the bells & whistles.

    Bye the way, it wasn't even close. Furthermore, the quality on plastic and performance today, look ahead, $$$
    Once you buy a performance car today, good luck to the future is because the manufacture holds yours wallet, my suggestion is to INVEST that money, making interest!

    One HUGE thing missing from the review, which is no mention of MAJOR problems with the manual transmissions. It’s well documented that the shift forks are breaking because they switched from steel to aluminum. You can find multiple videos and articles on this online and there is a 3+ month wait time for a replacement transmission (still using the aluminum, not steel forks). Do the public justice and mention these things in your reviews instead of making the mustang sound so wonderful.
