2018 Ford Mustang GT Premium Review - Quiet Mode is a God-Send

The 2018 Ford Mustang GT is available with quite a few options, but there's one that I couldn't live without. M.S.R.P. - $53,260.

Love the 18' GT with the new updates and features. Great review.

[@AutoAcademics]

Thank you, Man O War! This current-gen GT is a ton of fun.

[@Tbird761]

Your video style is far and away better than anything else I've watched in this category on KZbin. Showing a couple seconds of the feature you're talking about while you talk greatly enhances the amount of information coming across. I appreciate the extra effort that must take in editing and production. Do know that it does not go unappreciated.

[@AutoAcademics]

Thank you, Tbird761. We truly appreciate it. Thanks for watching, too!

[@cornbread70s4]

Man I just discovered this channel. Since subscribing earlier this week I’m binge watching your shows !!!

[@AutoAcademics]

Thank you, Cornbread 70's! We truly appreciate your support. Thanks for watching!

[@argonaut6386]

I want one and the neighbours aren't getting quiet mode 🤤🤤. Everyone here wants an AMG Merc or BMW M series but not me 😊

[@AutoAcademics]

Ha! It's a great car, Jason Bucks, UK. Thanks for watching!

[@musclescars4793]

The 10 speed auto is butter I love my 18 performance pack

[@AutoAcademics]

We're sure you do, Kelon Patterson. Enjoy your car and thanks for watching!

[@manamidrunk]

If you are wondering how to add extra stuff to MYMODE, just move to the mode you want and change settings, for example in my PP2 Standard i went to Sport +and just changed the exhaust to Track, mainly to annoy my neighbors. :) Mines a 2019 with active exhaust so not sure what options are available on other set ups.

[@Ribery763]

Mustang is the only thing ford makes right. great car and great review

[@AutoAcademics]

Thanks Ced Mc!

[@mrphildc]

Quiet start is a good feature. Thanks, Chris, for the demo. We not the sequential tail lights an homage to the Mercury Capri?

[@davidbadgett6332]

Great review!!

[@AutoAcademics]

Thank you, david badgett! We truly appreciate your comment. Thanks for watching!

[@JakeRoberts73]

Good for me cause my autistic son is scared of loud noises

[@pedrofernandez3893]

Now that there's mo longer a V6 model avail, this is the only way to go.

[@AutoAcademics]

The EcoBoost is a good performer, too (actually better than the V6), but the Mustang is truly all about the V8. And this one is glorious, pedro fernandez!

[@melissadavis3936]

Chris you know I've been waiting on this!! 👏🏽👏🏽❤️😍

[@AutoAcademics]

Ha! This one's for you, Melissa.

[@YNTGUNS]

Good job!👌

[@AutoAcademics]

We appreciate your comments, RED_10R. Thanks for watching!

[@Torsee]

Looks like a hell of a lot of fun! That is the V8 that has the Flat Plane Crankshaft? Can you drive it on Regular gas? Great video as always!

[@AutoAcademics]

What Ford has done with this Mustang is amazing. The GT uses a cross-plane V8, unlike the GT350's flat-plane version. We were totally amazed at how good (and LOUD) it sounded. And yes, according to fueleconomy.gov, you can run it on regular fuel, but premium is recommended. As always, thanks for watching, Torsee!

[@NorwichFLA]

Awesome cars

[@AutoAcademics]

Thanks for watching, F224asking Blank!

[@jerseypagan7553]

That engine didn’t sound too healthy when you popped the hood

[@boomerbangbang8487]

Love mustangs but if I get one probably won’t be able to go over my neighborhood speed bumps since they are tall af!!!!!

[@Wicked_10r80]

Do all 2018 gt have this exhaust mode

[@robertforcars7388]

Is it doing the “typewriter tick” yet? I like them too but I’d go GM or Mopar with that tick a lot of them are getting.

[@trewon1]

Most if not all 5.0's develop the typewriter tick. It's been around since 2011. Most cars run fine with this tick with no durability or performance issues. No evidence of medal in oil or "real" engine scoring. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gXTbfZmYbKZ6m7c

[@shanebanich1498]

Hemis are famous for the tick as well!? My challenger had it

[@Torsee]

Flat Plane Crankshaft! Turns fuel into Music!

[@TonyM-zi9rq]

The 5.0 Coyote does not have a flat plane crank. You have to get a GT350 with the 5.2L Voodoo motor to get that.

[@Torsee]

Cool, didn't know. Still sounds good.

[@TonyM-zi9rq]

@@Torsee Yesssiree it does!

[@funkyhomosapien1]

You battery fluid is low!

[@mikepetrilli4686]

At Ford quality is job none! My 2021 Mustang GT premium was a big lemon. I could live with the cheap plastic interior and glitchy electronics but the clucky garbage 6 speed manual transmission was just garbage! I'm not the only one who thinks so, look at the class action that has been launched against Ford. Fortunately I was able to sell it and buy a real car from another manufacturer. It's no wonder Ford stopped building cars...I'll never buy another Ford...EVER!

[@Diddy_Doodat]

Lamest review ever lol

[@IMGONEIN60]

Torsee no only the GT350 & GT350R have the flat plane crank.

[@lookahere]

Yes you can drive it on regular gas.
