2013 Ford Mustang GT Review // The Perfect Mustang?

[@GrahamCain]

For all those saying, "please show me a 50K mi. '14 for $16K..." You are looking at one! This GT was purchased for $16k with 50K miles on the odometer. The car was purchased and the review was filmed before the pandemic had so aggressively raised the used car prices.

[@ksquaw1297]

here i am about to buy a 13 gt cali special with 104k for $19k 😂

[@Toutvids]

These hold their value very well. Just bought a 2014 Mustang GT with a 6 speed manual with 61k miles for $22,600 last week. It was the only one of the 11-14 models for sale in my area for over 400 miles. A lot of little stuff wrong with it. Interior dome lights needed replacing, one of the plate lights is out, windshield cracked and pitted, the paint has touch up in about 10 spots but they did a lot of work to it as well. New brakes and slotted rotors, brand new exhaust, new (4k miles on it) transmission, new clutch (4k miles) and throw out bearing, cold air intake. Love the style and the power. Basically a bucket list type of car for me.

[@sammiches6859]

I got mine a little over a year ago for $25.6k with a lot of mods already on it with 77k miles. Pretty well taken care of, and I have a lot more to do with it.

[@Nigel__]

Got mine in 2019. Premium package, had 47,000 miles, paid $21k for it. Love it.

[@chargeron3115]

Totally agree. I recently bought a 2011 GT with 112k miles in pretty decent shape for 10k. So much fun and super easy to work on for the most part if you like to turn a wrench occasionally. Love it!

[@everythingautomotiveeta5839]

I bought my 14' in 19' for 17.5k with 42k miles with the premium and comfort package. Zero issues and ADORE the car

[@trey1215]

I bought mine for 19 with 50k miles premium also.

Best looking mustang years

[@hawgfankc]

I definitely think the 13/14 are the best looking S197's. A lot of car for the money on the used market and so easy to mod. Revving out the Coyote in my 18 never gets old.

How is it holding up I’m buying one with 41k miles for 25k but I’m in the fence between that or a stage 2 2009 roush with 50k for 20k flat. The 2013-14 gt is my favorite body style mustang but the 3v is my favorite engine and sound

[@Officer239]

I kinda miss my 2010 GT but I really wish ford would’ve started putting the 5.0’s in the 2010’s instead of the 2011

Got one a year ago. I have a 2005 GT and wanted one more S197. Mine is a super low mile premium too! Nice review!

[@maceldolaimy4944]

that laughter had me laugh cuz I'm blessed to know the feeling of driving a mustang.. I agree, the 13 14 mustang is one of the greatest in all of its forms, 3.7 to gt500 !

[@grod4844]

You said it best; better looking than 90% of the cars out there, plenty of mod'ing/repairing/upgrading parts for the S197 body (aesthetics, performance). I had a 2014 GT 6-speed that I traded in a few years ago, and just purchased a 2010 Shelby GT500 because I missed the body/nose so much.

[@vlasta4939]

Hi Graham, another beautiful video from the heart. I bought one Ford Mustang here in Europe and fulfilled my dream of a GT 28000mil mileage. Top equipment and Brembo package. Very difficult to find here in such a state. Car as new in original condition. I'll keep it forever. A dream come true. Thank you for your videos. Vlasta

[@phantomj29]

I got my 14 GT for 18k with 100K miles back in 2019 before the pandemic and I have to say that I have no regrets while driving on the highway.

[@vlasta4939]

I would like to add that in Europe American cars are burdened with customs, VAT and the price of transport. This Mustang of mine cost $ 26,000. Still, I don't regret it. Enjoy these exceptional cars while we can ..

[@dutycalls4991]

Those 16 grand days are way long gone my dude. If you find any 5.0 with 50k on it for 16 grand, you just won the lottery. You might want to make a follow up video since it's been another year about what these cars are actually bringing. You can't buy that exact car now for under 20k. And with only 50k on it, I think it could go as high as 25 grand today.

nice review. in 1996 i bought a new black on black GT w 4.6 L 5 speed manual. loved that car, it had a lot of Torque but only 210 hp. when i turned 59 last April i bought my 1999 C5 hardtop Corvette w only 18k miles.

[@bradmiller4999]

I do not think they will come down or if they do not very much, the new mustangs are so expensive, this body style will never be made again, how many have clean titles lots of other things. This body style are basically the new Foxbody and prices will reflect that.

Now take it on a road course and shift gears while going around a turn and see what happens. You'll have gear jamb and lock out. The transmissions in these cars are garbage. The newer cars, Shelby, have a much more better transmission with positive shifts through turns and on straights. Nice video but I disagree with they are better than the new Mustangs. JMHO
