The Cheapest NEW 2024 Ford Mustang GT: And I BOUGHT It! 

Love it, great video Roman!

Call me old school but I like the analog gauges much better. Great looking vehicle though. Awesome purchase!

I think you got it wrong. The new GTs have 480 HP and with the active exhaust they have 486

I remember buying my base model 5.0 6-speed new in 2019, and it was $33k after a little incentives. Big difference for nearly the same seats, engine, and gearbox

I question the reliability of the dual screens. They should of kept the real gauges and buttons. But it is a beautiful car

Those dual screens are a crime.

There's nothing cheap about the price of the new Mustang. No more young people driving off the lot with a new GT and crowd killing at C&C.

I HATE the dash in the new Mustangs. Two iPad sat on a dash. No style or attempt to make it look like anything else. Looks cheap

Nice buy glad ford is keeping the v8 going for 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Brand new 20 miles won't boot up 😅 thank you for leaving that there

Nice upgrade! I used to have a 2014 5.0, had it for 5 years. Awesome car! Sold it to get a ZL1, and as much as I loved it, decided to sell it and get the last 2022 GT500 in the same Atlas Blue as your new 5.0! That color looks gorgeous in the sun! Congrats on the new car! Looking forward to lots of videos with it!

Everyone saying they should have got the manual should remember that the GT comes with the MT82, which is known to be a poor manual transmission. Ford needs to get rid of it and only use Tremec.

The old one had much better gauge cluster - throwback. Dislike the square cornered screen sticking up - no style to that at all.

Perfect timing - I have a 2018 GT Premium with PP1, 6 speed, Active Valve Exhaust and Magna Ride. A little over 60,000 miles. Stone cold love the car. I am thinking about, at some point getting an S650. My next car would be optioned similar. 6 speed is a must - can’t possibly consider the distaff transmission! Big no go is the iPad dash 🤢. Think I’ll be driving the 2018 for a couple more years. Happy motoring 🤠

The gauge cluster setup looks like they literally just stuck a screen on the dashboard and called it a day. They could've tried to make it look integrated at least

The '24 GT has 480 HP std, and 486 with active exhaust. 2018 to '21 had 460-horse. 2022-'23 had 450-horse due to the carbon trap in the air intake tubing from the air filter box.

Cool new car. Congrats! Just hope that the lengthy delay for the screen to boot up is not a precursor of bad things to come. Personally, I prefer the old school interior of your old 2014 GT.

What a great video you guys! Thanks for showing off your new Mustang. I love the colour you got, I would choose the same one for my car. The exhaust is incredible as well.

TFL stating this might be the last V8 they (being an automotive review site constantly buying new vehicle) ever buy made this hit a bit harder then the individual announcements of engine discontinuations; I always kept saying to myself “Oh, I guess I’m switching to the other manufacturer for a big N\A ICE” but this makes me realize there may not be any other manufacturers pretty soon 😢

I remember the very first car I ever bought with cash was a 2013 mustang GT…32k….oh how times have changed. That’s a crazy price hike for 10 years difference

I love my ‘22 GT. I’m excited that Ford is investing in the future of the V8 for some more years. There’s two things I can’t get past on the one in the video. The first is the lack of a third pedal. I get resale but the trade off between the difference in price and the daily joy of changing gears just wouldn’t get me into an auto. Second, just not a fan of the screen in place of the gauge cluster. My dash is digital but it looks built in and the new one just looks a little out of place. However, nothing can take away from the sweet sound of Mustang firing up. Who needs a radio with that exhaust? I hope y’all enjoy yours half as much as I enjoy mine.

I hope you can do an immediate mileage test, and please get the oil from the first change reported on by a lab on possible contaminants. Love the paintwork. Are you going in for PPF or Ceramic coating? A video on paint prep and ceramic application DIY style would be awesome.

Sweet ride! Love that color and it sounds great. Great video!

Video idea...Cross country road trip, coast to coast, "What it's like to road trip the last V8 muscle car"

In a few years those screens will look like crap. Not to mention I bet the startup lag only gets worse over the years.

Thanks for the video, I could never see myself selling that 2014 for that new one. Good to see a real world video and not a hype video for the new one. Definitely like the older gauges and interface better. A mustang has never had rectangles in its design language. That interior was a big mistake in my opinion. I think the blue was the best color.

Yeah, 42K aint too bad, but i remember when V6 was 20-25K and a GT Premium was under 40K.

Great car. Great color. And, as said, everything you need and nothing you don't. What's not to like? And a discount, too. I would personally like an interior that's not black, but there's actually a lot of positives with the cloth seat centers, so I don't think that's in any way a deal breaker, and in Colorado I would think cloth seats are arguably a plus. Makes sense to get the auto given you don't plan to keep it long, etc. Congrats!

How's the engine? Oh, it's amazing. How's the infotainment system/electrics? Yeah....Ford really struggles with that.

This is how the big 3 view it's customers. Trade in their vehicles when they're bored with it within 2-5 years that's why they don't focus on reliability.

I’ll watch every video you make with this car, so please make plenty! You chose an excellent spec and color. That’s a Forever Car if I’ve ever seen one! Considering the fact that a used Dark Horse (or optioned out Premium Performance Pack) will still be over $42K three years from now when they’re on the used market with 50k miles, many of us will be shopping for these base models. I’m very interested to hear your thoughts on what higher trim features you might miss as you rack up the miles on this one (and HOPEFULLY slap on a few performance mods).

I could only dream of a dealer in my area (WV) giving $5k off a new Mustang! Might be worth a flight to Colorado!

It’s a good thing GM is discontinuing the Camaro. If not it would be tough to tell them apart.

ugly tablets inside. Otherwise on the outside looks great. Sounds amazing also, nothing can beat the V8 sound

I remember when cars were affordable.

Send it back save some money get tommy a door jeep or a used Highlander 12:55 the geese Agree with me

I'm fine with automatic even though I grew up driving a manual. In my area and at my age an automatic is easier. And sometimes others drive my car so I definitely wouldn't want them grinding gears on my manual.

Dang the quiet mode still has a nice rumble that is loud

The geese were impressed with the car and were discussing it!

It is strange since before seeing this video I went to the Ford website trying to decide on what Mustang I wanted. Still undecided but I had picked that same configuration as yours, same color, etc. except a manual. Very interesting info about the discounts out there in CO. May be worth a trip out there for a $5K discount. Thanks for another great video. Looking forward to more content with the new Mustang.

Beautiful color! But like the rest of the comments here, you’re buying the last V8 muscle (pony) car, and you should’ve paired it with the manual transmission

Nice car but I wish they did something different with the gauge cluster. Looks unfinished and almost like they forgot about it and just stuck a tablet as a placeholder.

Awesome purchase guys. Hope to see some road trip videos and it's overall livability.

I was interested in a 2024 premium GT… but the amount of screen there is in the car.. I definitely prefer my 07 GT500. It was like half of the whole dash board. And it’s super quiet and does pick up as fast as I would like

Just got base model with 301a. Great advice on get what you want and nothing you dont need.

Very nice ride overall, but I’m just not feeling the trend of gauges on a tablet. I love digital gauges mind you, but I don’t get the appeal of just slapping them on the dashboard on what looks like an iPad. Everything else looks and sounds great though!

Funny how dealer said manual harder to sell, but when buying a manual requires dealer premium (markup) 🙄

I bought a brand new Mustang GT premium in 2006. I got the Ford "A" plan and it was $25,000. 6 years later, traded is for a 2012 Camaro SS 45th anniversary.

I like his choice. A lot of Mustang GT videos deal with GT Premium with PP which is the highest trim before dark horse. This would be more 'wise' and 'practical' (?) purchase in my opinion.

Congratulations on your new Mustang! 310 hp is plenty for me. I can't even max out the hp in my area. I'm sure that you'll put all of your hp to good use.

My wife has been eyeballing a s650 GT to upgrade from her 2016 V6. Hopefully Ford got their quality control under….control.

manual vs auto= engagement with the manual. A mustang isn't the best car at anything but its an affordable gateway into an enthusiasts car.

I recently looked at the new Mustang GT's but they have 2 things that will keep me from ever buying one, (just like new Dodge Chargers and certain Challengers), openings in the hoods for rain and snow to mess up the engine compartment and probably void a warranty truth be known AND the second thing is the capless fuel fill with no locking "cap" or plug available just like the Chargers. People say to me its too hard to siphon gas and I said I'm worried about jealous people putting stuff IN the neck/tank not the other way around.

Wow that mustang is beautiful but the price is another story to tell 😅,,

There’s a GT in Manassas, VA for $37,xxx

The blue and black rims is the perfect color combo

One thing a must have with 450 plus hp car is track pack. Bigger brakes, wider wheels and upgraded wider tires.

Love that Ford is keeping the V8 alive. I am a truck guy but man this Mustang is making me want one/ Looking forward to more vids with this car!! and yes from a 2023 F-150 owner the infotainment takes a sec to pop up! Its normal

You may want to get a different battery. From my experience buying newer Fords sitting on the lot, the battery they are using is garbage. The Auto Stop Start on my Maverick never works in winter and only works in summer if the A/C is running. The battery always reads around 11.9-12.4v in the winter, but 14.3 in the summer with the A/C running. Dealer gave me a run around and said I should be running A/C in the winter. WTF

Nice to see a sports car without rubber band tires on it, more of a classic look for a change.

That trick also works really well with motorcycles. Buy a motorcycle from somewhere way up north in the winter and ride it back south if you're mad or have it sent to you. And enthusiasts don't care if something is faster. They want better. Just ask your significant other if they would prefer you were faster or better and you'll have the answer to why you should choose a manual.

Agree with shopping out of area for best pricing. However, many States Lemon Laws only apply to vehicles sold within the State. I have flown twice to a different state. Once saved $15k versus all local dealers.

oh yeah! Coyote V8 Forever !

Just picked up my 2024 GT with the B&Q system and bronze package….

FYI 480hp standard, 486hp with the active exhaust.

Those screens are stuid af, i like the 10 year old one better

The gloss black accents are really starting to get out of date. A bit of it isn't bad but i do agree that those wheels look cheap and i absolutely hate that gloss black lipstick on the front bumper. Itd look so much better if it was just body colored.

Love that mustang and the older one! Greetings from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷

I sure like the older dash better. So simple.

Mustang GT V-8 cars are less popular as fuel prices go way up. 42K isn't bad for a almost 500hp sports car. Speaking of basic I bought a 86 Mustang LX 5.0 5-speed with only power windows, sunroof and rear defogger radio delete. It was $11,000 msrp. Way slower of course, but was a mid 14 second car in the mid 80's. Air would have been nice, but for 14 years and 160K miles was a blast!!

I hoped for a manual 😢

That's the perfect Mustang setup, NA 5.0, cloth seats, 18 inch wheels, exhaust.

Base horsepower for a GT for 2024 is 480. Getting active exhaust gets you to 486. Just a 6 horsepower bump.

I bought my first mustang GT back in 2002, it was $24,000 and it was a premium. Now, the price has effectively doubled. Salary sure hasn't doubled for most people in the last 20 years. These cars are now unaffordable to the common man. Unless you want to spend a quarter to half of your income on a car payment.

The horror 😢 it was a trade in....for the 14 GT? Good lord...that's the car that brought me to this channel. Thanks for the memories and content

Love the design, just seems like those screens were an afterthought

Fantastic. My 2019 GT manual might need an upgrade. I have been looking at my local dealer. The active exhaust is wild! Congrats, I'm looking forward to your future content with this vehicle.

Equipment Group 301A is dual-zone temp control and Serious XM - for $2,000!! There should certainly be some bargaining room over *that* unnecessary group (that's part of where the dealer shaved your "$5k off the sticker price").

That's pretty much the only vehicle Ford makes that I'd buy. But it's still not my first choice. Love that color blue though!

Very cool and that muffler sounds great.

Can you do a summary video on the outgoing stang? What broke what issues etc.

Its crazy how it cost double the price from previous model

That’s almost the price of a used 2018ish GT350. These prices 😢

That's crazy expensive when you consider I bought my 2018 PP1 Premium for $43k. when new Dec 2017. I even have the magneride and the adaptive exhaust.

Very nice. Kind of partial to the S197 though. I picked up a 2009 GT 5spd with 22k on the clock about this time last year in Loveland. Sort of wished it was auto, the granny gears and traffic can make driving a workout. Looking forward to future videos.

heated seats are the under rated best feature! Feels good!

All the 2024 GT’s are 480 HP. The active exhaust gets you 6 extra to 486HP.

Yep, older vehicles come with lots of memories.

I didn't have to travel to get mine, and I did a custom order too. STILL got $4000 off, I just told them I'm not paying sticker, and I want a discount. I got it...

You know, I’m still not sold on the two screens, but the longer I look at the exterior, the less I hate it. The Blue with black trim looks great in my opinion and I think a nice set of polished aluminum or even (gasp!) chrome wheels might be the ticket. FWIW I see a drag pack wheel and tire setup (skinnies up front and fatties in the rear) when I think of the polished aluminum setup but I realize how much that would compromise the dynamics of the car as far as content goes. I’ve had a 1987 Notch and a 2011 GT, I miss them both. Seeing this one has me nostalgic and itching to go build one online. Best of luck with the car and I’ll be patiently waiting for content with it!

I am a mustang owner myself, but honestly, I would not have gotten rid of that 2014...

Agree with saving $ by having cloth seats. How comfortable are they?

I got the 6 speed manual in my 2021 HPP vert. I bought for the driving engagement. I think in a sports car you want to feel more connected and in control of it. YMMV

Maaaaaaann that trade in definitely helped out with the price! That is probably the cheapest I've seen one get sold for. Lucky man! I want this car so bad, but my trade-in won't be that great, but this is definitely motivation. I love this car, and I am keeping faith, I will get it before the end of the year 🙏🏽 Nice vid!

I enjoy keeping up with the news in the automotive world and your latest insights on the 2024 Mustang GT got me thinking. The comment about the last drive and first drive are very true. I remember when I was ten years old and my parents bought a new car. The last drive in my parent’s 1954 Chevrolet Sedan was very sad day. Your articles and insight on the new vehicles entering the market are always interesting. When I was looking to replace my 2004 Dodge Dakota Quad Cab with one of the newer midsized pickups, I found your reviews helpful in making my final decision. During my research on the Toyota Tacoma, one complaint concerning the automatic transmission was that a lot of buyers did not like the shift points. This was not an issue with my 2004 Dodge Dakota because it was a driver adaptive transmission and the best automatic transmission I ever owned. It was also the most expensive to repair at $2500. As I considered the complaint with the Tacoma automatic transmission, I concluded that the engineers programmed the system for efficiency and not drivability which most likely lead to the complaints about shift points. This sealed my decision to search for a manual transmission Tacoma that was languishing on a dealer lot. In December of 2018 I found a new 2017 Tacoma Extended Cab 6 speed MT at the local Toyota dealership. I have to say that I was disappointed to see the new Mustang GT optioned with an automatic transmission for the various reasons: 1. Trade-in - Lame reasoning in my opinion 2. Members of video crew - teaching opportunity 3. Fuel efficiency - Real world conditions? 4. Performance - Maybe? 5. We review what most people will purchase. 6. As a businessman…go with an automatic. Unfortunately what I hear from many automotive experts is their love for manual transmission but a failure to support them by actually driving a manual transmission vehicle in a long term test. Many of the same excuses are echoed. The automatic transmission has come a long way but is also being programmed for efficiency and not drivability. The CVT, even though it is extremely efficient, was deemed as too droning by the American market. Subaru engineers have gone great lengths to design their CVT to act like an automatic transmission, with shift points as well as a seven speed manual mode, to appease buyers. Other automakers have also used shift points in CVT’s to appease the American market. What they are really doing is making the CVT less efficient to make it more like an automatic or manual transmission. Porsche, BMW, Ferrari, et al., even turned manual transmissions into an “automatic transmission” for the drivers that did not want to deal with the clutch pedal. It has been stated by Andre that the Toyota Tacoma with the manual transmission is a favorite truck. Several vehicles have been featured on FLT with manual transmissions. The only way to get the new generation of drivers interested in a manual transmission is to show what can be achieved with a manual versus an automatic or CVT. Those of us who have driven manual transmissions vehicles a long time take a lot for granted. For example , I reminded a friend recently that they could downshift their automatic transmission on a long downhill to save their brakes. For a manual transmission driver, this is an automatic gear choice. I have seen a few articles that point to an uptick in the automotive market concerning interest in the manual transmission. Let’s hope that it can be brought back from near extinction.

Man my first car was a 67 mustang. I rebuilt it with my grandfather. Then I got into trouble & sold it so my wife could pay the Bills. 20 years later & I don't think I will ever be able to afford one.😢

486hp, 480 with standard exhaust. 460 was the gen 3 coyote

This is the spec I’d get too…the ecoboost is 51k, you’ve got a great deal.

Those dual screens look really goofy. I hope this fad of companies gluing tablets to the dash doesn't last very long.

Add a couple white stripes from the back of the hood scoop over the top and trunk. Love the sound. Gonna be an interesting year.
