CarTell take
We haven't driven the Mustang yet. On paper, dark Horse at $104,990 plus on-roads is BMW M2 money. Cross-shop the M2 if AWD comfort matters more than NA V8 character.
Why consider it
- One of the last new naturally aspirated V8 RWD coupes on sale.
- GT and Dark Horse retain a proper Tremec 6-speed manual, and the Dark Horse covers track use that Mach 1 buyers wanted.
What to know
- No ANCAP rating, Mustang has skipped testing again.
- RWD only with no AWD option for the Australian winter buyer.
Who it suits
V8 fans, manual purists and track-day owners who want a naturally aspirated rear-drive coupe under $115,000. Ecoboost is the badge entry, Dark Horse is the enthusiast top.
