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!

Nice presentation. Smart couple. Changing POV's. They deserve several Oscars including best actress, actor and dialogues.

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.

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

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.

[saraaronzon]

I've never seen you look happier! That was an amazing ride!

[bradhunter]

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!😀

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 have a 2018 GT Manual Convertible with Performance Pack and MagneRide and the upgraded interior, it is a BEAST!

[Gmana]

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!

[monikafelicella]

You guys are And what a fun review, thoroughly enjoyed it, Great Job!!!!

[sunnyvalentino]

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.

[richarddemelo]

Good review. Mach 1 review pleas. Also 5 videos a You both are the most hardworking YouTube auto reviewers out there. MACH 1, MACH 1 MACH 1

[liuray]

Such a beautiful cover pic (people & car). Got me to watch the video every time I see this !

[georgem]

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!

[belvederedog]

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.

[tlevans]

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..

[TalismanPHX]

Dear Lord, i want that white Mustang GT convertible.... but I live in the snowbelt. Summer nights driving it would be heavenly.

[chunyu]

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.😉

[stuntmanstu]

Had a 2017 California GT convertible and now a 2021 hardtop GT with the PP1 package and LOVE it! Great review
