Don’t forget it was an election year with a lot of uncertainty. People pause on larger purchases Also FRAP in Michigan was closed for 1-2 months in 2024. I think in July they produced zero Mustangs if I remember correctly. I’m grateful that Ford is making a V8 Mustang. I’ll keep buying them as...

That’s exactly my point. Try finding another car that’s sub 60K new that’s as cool as a GT…let alone 500HP or a similar powertrain even…or looks half decent lol…. Can’t find em’ It’s a freakin steal IMO.

Your thread is going to cause WW 3 😂

Agreed with the whining lol. I’m more than happy to pay the price for a car that is becoming a rare breed, that is a hell of a lot of fun, puts a smile on my face, sounds kick ass, is fast as hell, all the while looking great while doing it. A freakin bargain if you ask me. Find me a car for 60K...

https://carbuzz.com/ford-mustang-gt-not-as-expensive-as-you-think/ Here’s a great article that sums it up pretty well. Relatively speaking, I think the GT is a great deal.

That’s 100% spot on. The perception is what matters. Reality is a whole different story. I’m more than happy to spend 62K on a fully loaded GT that I love. I’m also happy to drop 100K on a loaded Corvette - I think both of them are relative bargains in a world filled with boring $75K SUVs.

If you account for all taxes that you pay including sales tax, property tax, income tax, capital gains, etc…. You are paying over 50% of your net income to the US Gov’t. You are a 50% employee of the US Gov’t. You technically pay taxes to flush your toilet- because you have to pay taxes on your...

Most people who buy EVs don’t care about raw performance or the sound of the car lol. They want to go from point A to B. Tesla or EV = Toyota Camry.

Yep most people aren’t flooring their car all of the time lol What if you took away the Mustang GTs V8 soundtrack and traded it for a purely silent but fast EV powertrain? Would you still buy it?

Great analogy Lol spot on

I have a Mach-E and it’s really fast. And is fun overall. The only thing you miss with an EV is the pure raw sound of a V8 and the exhaust note. Also Teslas look like bland eggs in terms of shape. To me, owning both a V8 and an EV…the V8 wins in terms of overall fun factor. Also with a...

55K’ish for a premium GT with almost 500 HP is a relative bargain - IMO The average price of a new car today is almost 50K. Think about that for a sec. A plain Jane, average, boring car that gets you from point A to point B with no soul is 50K. 50 Freakin K lol. 50K is nothing anymore. I...

The average transaction price for new cars as of November 2024 was $48,397, basically a cool 50 grand!! To spend about 60K(give or take) for a well spec’d Mustang GT is actually a great deal relatively speaking. You get a fun, great looking, high horsepower car for slightly above the average...

worth every penny if it puts a smile on your face!

Stop being so Neggytive! Lol. All joking aside, it’s a great car and still a relatively great value for the buck considering the performance and lack of competition. But at a certain point, if the price keeps climbing it’ll make zero sense fairly quickly.

The US has seen unprecedented inflation over the past 4 years. We suffered through Covid, the highest inflation in 40 years, and the the highest interest rates in 40 years. If inflation isn’t cooled off we will see 100K Mustang GTs in 5 years (if Ford is still making them.) But a 100K Mustang...

Nevada here. Where you can drive anything 365 days out of the year. No rain or snow, just sun. A major perk of living out West. After living in the northeast for a long time it got pretty tiring with the freezing cold temps and crappy weather. It’s great if you love sports cars.

This is a cold start after not being started for 5 days. Here is a short video smoke last about 7-10 seconds then goes away. Doesn’t happen if car is warm.

No it lasts about 10 seconds, faint white smoke, then goes away.
