It's a car you can keep forever, it's awesome

Yay Alex is finally flicking a car around in a review! More of that please.

I'm glad to hear that even Europeans agree a muscle car should have a V8.

I just got my license plate number today for my black Mustang GT. B)
If nothing goes wrong I'll be driving it before the end of the week!

What a great film, great job Alex and Carfection! I can't wait till you guys get to try out the GT350 version of this.

The US version has 435 hp, 400 lbs torque and a top speed of 164. And a little more then that once you get an X-pipe and Roush axleback exhaust on :)

The camera work and quality of this video is awesome!

Well Britain finally gave us the Focus RS. I say pretty fair trade,

[lffit]

saw my first one in France the other day, in black looked stunning, I want one!

I'm glad you guys got the Mustang, Australia too. This car is making friends everywhere it is sold.

I've seen a few here in the UK and every time I see one, I want one!

Alex got it perfectly at 6:00, where he said "Why get it with a turbo 4? Get the big lumbering V8 man, its a Musclecar! " True words spoken from ya buddy... Cheers from the Musclecar capital USA... ^^

Doesn't quite work here in india though. And that's why I WANT it.

When you want to have a bit of fun on windy roads, put the auto in sports mode and use the paddles, you won't get the delays you speak of, the changes are almost instantaneous.  I have the  GT and I love every time I hit the start button, every time I take it for drive (even if it's just to the shops), and I love the 'feel good' feeling when being in the car and even that everyone who has been a passenger also experiences and just feeling great for owning one. 3 things Ford can do to improve (1) move the hand brake to the drivers side on RHD vehicles so that you're drink bottles don't get in the way when using the gear lever[this has been a common negative feedback to Ford in Australia] (2) have drink holders in the front door cubbies (3) have 'active' cruise control as this car is a great Grand Tourer on highways/long trips so it's not necessary to reset the cruise control every time you approach a slower vehicle - which is often for me.

It's fun/funny listening to Brits talk about American muscle. 😎

0:38 GOD DAMN that shot is beautiful. That '65 is rather lovely.

Nice review! Thanks for posting this. I just picked up a 2017 GT yesterday, and whoa what a bunch of fun to drive. Behaves well in corners...except when you want it to misbehave....and it does that very well.

all sold out in Australia..waiting list stretches out to 2018

The wheel is on the correct side in the country of origin 'USA'. we had to make it on the wrong side for you and the other few backwards thinking countries lol. In no way was I being condescending, just poking fun. Cheers!

I have a 67 mustang coupe custom. Cost £1000 to ship and 5% duty. That's all. Well worth doing imo if you love old mustangs. Reliable and hard as a tank too. Love it.
