Why is it always this guy

I'm not a fan of all the unnecessary words either.

Where is Ford marketing with the sales brochures?

Is it hard to release a PDF?

I got to admit, and I hate agreeing with stangmode, but the base GT looks like quite the bargain. Really makes you wonder if 401A is worth the price of admission. My same build minus 401A and MagneRide comes out to a 9K difference.

Base GT , active exhaust, night pony, 10r80 came out to 43K with A plan
Deal.

I sorta get the internet thing, but there is no way I can relate to anyone with an internet persona. He could be a great dude that anyone would like to BS with, but everyone I've ever respected would want to beat his ass.

Anyway, I agree.
Base has its place for sure and it's by no means stripped like cars were in the 70s/80s/90s.

Cars are like women, all shapes and sizes, hair colors, face structures, etc.

I swear every car I ever bought had a great ass. The designers know what they're doing, when they are allowed to do it.

The interior certainly looks like a "bargain". Look at the dash - nothing but injected plastic. Looked like the average rental car to me, and that was not seeing it in person. Having said that, $40k doesn't get you much at all these days... so something that seemingly looks ok, with a 5.0, is definitely giving the competition a run for its money.

I think some are getting hung up on the vanity of some of the new parts, and taking into consideration the fact of how bad the previous gen base model actually was.

Am I the only one super-annoyed with the jerky camera work? And what is with him being overly zoomed in or out of focus?

This interior looks great. The primary difference between the base and premium was the screen and now that it's no longer the case, there just isn't much difference. I'll probably just throw on a nice Alcantara steering wheel at some point. I personally went with the base to avoid those inevitable booty prints.

Convincing yourself that the "premium" interior makes a ford look any nicer is laughable. I had the top tier 50th anniversary interior in my first mustang and the word "premium" is relative

Does the Base GT come with all of the features listed in the infotainment at 3:36? I see features enabled such as Lane Keeping Assist, Pre-Collision Assist, and Cross Traffic Alert among a base model V8 car? Are these features standard or part of the 301A equipment group? I'm surprised that they even come with this trim level at all.

I thought that these features came standard on something like a GT Premium (I don't know how the equipment groups work). Did they just transfer the same exact screen from the "top of the line" mustangs, because if not... this makes the regular GT almost more of a bargain than before.

All Mustang's come with lane keep assist, pre collision, cross traffic alert, etc. The 401A adds more quality of life features.

A 50th anniversary car is almost a decade old. You can't compare them.

Per my window sticker for a 301A, Ford Copilot360 is standard, which includes Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking. BLIS® (Blind Spot Information System) with Cross-Traffic Alert.

The screens are the exact same ones from the premium, but the premiums literally have a frame around them to make it look like one continuous screen, which might also have the effect of making the premiums look like they have thicker bezels

It was and is the exact same material as the 2023 car. Unless the 24s have improved quality, the interior materials still aren't on par with German and Japanese brands
