Analog and buttons trim!
Hate that digital touch screen stuff

[@jamesdabney6582]

I wish they would have a complete show of the car.

[@paulelliott682]

And for the 2025 model boys & girls the horse will finally run clockwise

[@theshadowtalks]

Great job. Thank you!

[@franciscojhernandez2001]

When would be on the market or dealerships?

[@jamesdabney6582]

I wish they would have shown the external side of the car.

[@alphonsothomas3651]

The car only has 500 hp and 418 torque, so that car is still gonna be slow on the street or track. Ford needs a real GT race car which that Stang isn't. So I'll keep my GT350 on deck

[@MikeYeary]

He said they'll be at the dealerships in early summer, so does that mean that if you made an early order, you'll get yours around then too?

[@imanoob5201]

nope

[@mikehouser8308]

We placed our order the same day orders opened and we are still waiting for them to start on it

[@MikeYeary]

@@mikehouser8308 Yeah, me too. Unfortunately.

[@PIKOLO390]

What about the clucht and manual transmition is it good 🤔 ?

[@markjones7417]

From what I can find that appears reliable, and there's a lot of bad information out there, the manual will be eliminated only on the Ecoboost because of lack of demand, and will still be available on the GT. It will still be the Getrag but with some tweaking, so I read, and you'll have to get the Darkhorse or Mach 1 to get a Tremec. I've not seen anything specific on the clutch but I understand the clutch has a better feel for better operation, but I don't know if the clutch itself is different although with 480 HP in front of it that's possible. I'll update as I find out and sort the facts from the rumors. Hopefully I haven't passed on any bad information here. Here's another TH-cam link to another pretty good video: th-cam.com/video/ZYRoxbjmZpM/w-d-xo.html

[@stephenedwards5063]

I really like the dash but hate the interior design of this car. At this price I feel it should be higher quality. I still ordered mine but the interior seems a lil cheap. I would’ve preferred more of a sports luxury, interior design like the Lexus RCF V8. When you start getting to 60k plus you need a premium interior with less plastic. They cut a lot of cost with this car by using the same power train. It’s really a refresh model with a face lift and new dash

[@mikehouser8308]

But when will our orders be started or at least tell us more of what is slowing everything down

[@user-wn9xf2du7l]

Think I will wait on the new Cobra!

[@melvinsmith9445]

Not that many young people can afford those high Ass cars, A lot of older people can't either.Mustang isn't a people car no more,.

[@imanoob5201]

no car is lol get with the times. nothing is cheap

[@derrongee]

A base ecoboost is around 30k, I’d say that’s affordable for most. I couldn’t afford a mustang GT in my late 20s either. I waited until I could afford one in my mid 30s.

[@ludedude5228]

Nice car but you won't touch one for under 100k 😲 if a dealer has one on the lot "

[@theshadowtalks]

Hi dude, I ordered one and the dealership was only given 2 for 2024. I paid MSRP….with the packages 66,025.

[@ludedude5228]

@@theshadowtalks That's because you ordered it. Not a car already on the lot

[@Jimmyxsx]

100k? not even the GT500 is being sold for that kind of money lol

[@theshadowtalks]

@@ludedude5228 What I mean is NO dealer will have one on the lot.

The LoGo dont look to good 😮

[@ghostrider7103]

We know the Mach 1 beat the GT350R by .04 seconds, but what’s the numbers on this? We don’t want to be your test subjects, so let us see some reviews from Car and Driver and others that review new cars.

Where does the Mach 1 beat the 350R

Making a big deal about 100hp per litre with a 5.0 V8, while Porsche makes over 125hp with a 4.0 six.
