    Wooohooo! It's Mustang Wednesday this week. Doesn't have quite the ring to it. You guys should have seen Matt around this car haha. Every time someone drove by he had his eye on it, every opportunity to drive he was thrilled. That's what it's all about!! Drive what you love. Stoked for you to get your Bullitt!!

      Matt Maran Motoring Matt I have a 16 GT Premium manual in magnetic grey. I still haven't gotten used to the front end of the 18s and the no signal hood style is so much less aggressive and it's a huge deterrent from me upgrading. It just looks sad now lol But I do love the quad tips and active exhaust and a 10speed auto that consistently puts you into the 11s with just a few upgrades. It's a love hate thing for me lol

      It seems that they might be keeping up with a pattern 2010 they had a refresh and kept it from 2010 to 2012. The new S550 went 2015-2017. 13-14 refresh and so I’m guessing they’ll keep this style for 18-19 and in 2020 they’ll probably refresh it again or even scrap this and make a new one

    I special ordered my 2018 automatic GT and it arrived with 3 miles on it. Two years later, I still react like this every time I hear the roar of the 5.0 engine. Though when I floor it, the tail end immediately begins to fish tail. I did buy a donut spare tire, which adds approximately 30 lbs to the rear end for $330.00

    A fantastic car. I rented a 2018 GT in Central California last month, and the car returns agent asked me how it was. I told him it was "life changing." I get it now. The 2018 GT absolutely rules as a fun and comfortable daily driver.

    I'm sure I know what I look like every time I drive ours. 14:36 is it. I've been a truck guy for years, but my wife's first car was her dad's '68 fastback (and we still have it). So we waited and waited to get a new vehicle and decided on the 50 year split and just picked up a 2018 GT with the 401A package and couldn't be more pleased with it. What a beast! Great job highlighting all of its great features.

      hey Matt, is the dark highland green only for the Bullitt? Also, how would you say the new mustang feels compared to the base Stingray? Both the same amount of horsepower, but the mustang has that 10 speed with a little more weight.

  • @danmurphy1994
    @danmurphy1994 6 ปีที่แล้ว +15

    Ford just keeps building upon the 5.0 NA V8 setup.. It's becoming the best naturally aspirated engine on the market! Sounds a lot like the 5.0 V8 in the Lexus LC500 and GS-F actually. I love that the redline is over 7 grand, this harkens back to the 60s where for example the 1969 Boss 429 engine had a high red line for its day due to it being a straight up racing engine. I really wish Ford wised up with the lincoln brand and stuck their arm deeper into the corporate spending budget for the continental and just used this engine for it, maybe even adapted the Mustang platform to be a long wheel base, RWD architecture true luxury entry. Surely money is there its' just the willingness to play on the same court as the big 3 from Germany aswell as Lexus, Jaguar and Infiniti even Maserati that Ford is lacking in.

  • @jswandog
    @jswandog 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I get that same goofy smile on my face when I let my right foot get heavy in mine too! Such a blast!
    This ten speed is amazing! Blips through gears when getting on it, but provides nearly 29 mpg when cruising at 75. PERFECT!
    That's the best I've seen yet so far, and I only have 700 miles on mine since April. May get better mpg....
    The smiles per mile are way more important in this car! So much fun!

      Really depends on what you like. The Auto is more relaxed. You get to just chill, enjoy the sound, but you're not as connected to the car.
      With a manual, it's the car experience, right? You decide when to shift. Me personally, I'm going with the auto. I'm not a huge fan of manuals. I know, I know...I'm a weirdo.

      It took me months to decide. I eventually got a 17 GT over a 17 2SS or 1LE. The price was better on the GT PP and I was worried about blind spots. I drove a 18 SS recently and the blind spots really aren't bad. Camaro feels tighter, better handling. The LT1 is a torque monster. If I could do it over. I'd get the Camaro.

    Love you enthusiasm during the test drive. The coyote motor is legit. Found your review because I'm considering an 19 GT AT. Everything is pretty jaded after owning a 15 Z07 and 17 F-Type coupe R but for $30k, its a fun toy.

    100hp less.. Ford please take out the bulk..😎 oh and Matt is way too excited 😜😜

    These Mustang's are so good that local town folk are actually driving them through the winter months instead of their trucks or beaters - I am in Alaska. That has to say something since these Mustang owners install $1800 winter tires and putting some extra weight in the trunk.

    I have the 19, the things he complains about were fixed apparently in the newer year. It also is faster than the Bullet. They say the Bullet has 480 hp but new automatics are always faster. Mine chirps the tires up to 4th gear. I was lucky I bought the last 19 on the dealer lot and got 12K off list. I bought mine to have until I could get a C8, but I love this car so much I think I will just keep it.

    • @placebo267
      @placebo267 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      If you told me I would have bought a mustang 5 years ago and I would have called you crazy. The 2015-2017's are my favorite years other than the '66. They really improved the car from the 2014 to 2015 model year.
      The new front end just doesn't do it for me, it was love at first sight with the 2015-2017's though. I think the 2018's are just too busy up front, it's all squished and looks distorted to me. IMO, its nowhere near as clean as the pre refresh S550's.
