FIRST LOOK: 2024 Seventh-Generation Ford Mustang | Top Gear

[@DPCcars]

The Mustang stands as a symbol of American automotive culture like few others, doesn't it? From the iconic V8 enthusiasts to the tech-savvy advocates for EVs, there's room under the Mustang umbrella for all. 🇺🇸 I think we can all agree that whether it's old school muscle or modern innovation, the Mustang stirs emotions. And let's be real, how many cars can be a crowd-pleaser and a "crowd plower" at the same time? 😂

[@gaspump]

Well said. I certainly love my S550. And perhaps that's the other thing... I've enjoyed my other cars from a deliciously high revving Toyota 2zz to a smooth BMW I6, but nothing is as visceral as my manual V8 Grabber Blue Mustang, customized to my liking. ... I am also very happy to see that many other cars are now plowing into bus-fulls of nuns and school children.

[@jacquelinecorrig4594]

I'll have to be financially stable in every sense before purchasing my first supercar. The best thing to do with my money is to invest rightly till I can afford one

[@gabrielbruhnr]

The best advice that i learned from Manny Koshbin is don't buy a Super or Hyper car until you have 10 times the price of it in your Bank account, when you purchase a Super car you add a car to your garage but u add also maintenance and unexpected damages that can happen in future

[@gregorridavichko]

I understand Manny advice but that's overkill. If most people did that - they would never own one. The 10-15% rule is enough - especially if you make even more with multiple streams of income. My investment properties pay for my exotics cars. It's many different things you can do to afford easily and responsibly. You don't need a million cash to afford a cheap 100k car, My first exotic was 100k put down 20k- financed 80k. Then traded up to more expensive cars. Now I have an Aventador, so it's not hard at all, Especially if you are making 20-25k plus a month with little to no debt with multiple streams and assets that produce income.

[@valeriejeanmathis874]

If you have that much money sitting in your bank account, that means that you are not investing your money properly. Money sitting in the bank doesn't really do anything for you because interest rates are so slow. It's better to have $1 million in a place where it can make you 5% on returns rather than having that $1 million sitting in your bank account making you 0.5% returns.

I agree Ford I feel like is doing the right thing and I didn’t want to live to see this day come I’m only 17 and there’s already killing off muscle cars. I’ve always wanted one of the top hp model for each muscle car and now it’s making me sad that they are killing them off. I don’t think electric is the way I think alternative fuels and hybrids are the way. What all the governments are pushing isn’t right and it upsets car fans all over the world. And the combustion engine can run so many other things as well. And plus all electric means just more strain on powerplants and the same pollution that was from the cars is just going to be coming from the power plants. There must be another way to save cars with engines someway some how I hope someone finds a way and really soon S.O.E. (Save Our Engines).

[@ThabileTheTrainer]

Old school muscle meets newfound precision. Looks cleaner, minimalist and easily recognizable than the old one. I rather like it. Kudos to Ford! The Mustang is coming with guns blazing!

[@jinxtacy]

It's weird because in that color at first glance I thought it was a Volvo in their Swedish racing green. After testing out an m4 a couple years ago. I was wondering why people didn't just save the money and buy a Mustang if they wanted a gigantic coupe that handled well. Personally, I wish it was just shrunk down in total scale by 15 to 20% and it would be a pretty amazing car for my taste.

[@JakeyBaby6]

Can we not get a new Capri? I'd leap at something from Ford with retro styling but aimed at the GT86 and MX5 and affordable.

[@lukegrygiel5175]

Good comment

[@themrmarkprior]

Good on ya Ford. This is the behaviour we appreciate. Enjoy it whilst we can as the end is truly nigh.

[@RichardJones-kx6mb]

Full disclosure, I have a 2022 mustang gt. I smile every time I press the start button and press that third pedal. That said, good on ford. Manual transmission and naturally aspirated v8. In a world concerned less with driver experience and more with tenths of a second on 0-60 times, Ford still cares about those of us who want to enjoy our cars. All I need is a bit of twisty road and no one in front of me.

[@JF-di1nr]

The s650 seats are the same as the s550. I’m 6ft 4 and drove around Australia and found them extremely comfortable and supportive with lumbar adjustment over long drives. So your comment about the seat absolutely bamboozles me and lost me for the video after.

[@paultucker1272]

Ford UK dropped the Ecoboost 4 cylinder a few years back as sales were 80/20 in favour of the V8, so I don't see the Ecoboost coming back for this 7th generation. Also, the last of the V8 6th Gen cars were over £50k, so the price is only going to go up.

[@wainerollins2587]

That's right, Ford UK had started to price the Mustang out of reach for many. That's a real shame because it was originally fairly affordable for its size and power.

[@johnfer98]

The ecoboost is mostly bought by rental companies

[@edwardvickers5506]

I think a mach 1 might be a better buy for the money but apart from the dash the Dark Horse does looks good but how much Ford Uk ?

[@rheser]

​@@wainerollins2587should be plenty of cheap used 6th gen V8's to choose from then❓️

[@sfletcher83]

I bought one of the last V8s and have since been told by about four dealers that they expect the S650 GT to start around £60-£62k and the Dark Horse around £70k.

[@Angry_Squirrel555]

Long live the Mustang! Love the Fox body gauges they’re pretty cool, it takes me back to my first car (an ‘87 5.0 LX). Ford is definitely aiming for Gen-X with this.

Mustang as the last, true sports car? A worthy send-off.

[@saxa21]

Steve M and film Bullit means Mustang will never die. Iconic.

[@kubeanie18]

The chassis is notably stiffer, and it’s been outfitted with all-new suspension and steering systems to improve its handling at speed. Its sheet metal has been sculpted completely from scratch from the nose to the rear deck, giving it a more aggressive, boxier appearance than its predecessor, to say nothing of the interior, which is completely new.

[@msk3905]

I love the 2024 Mustang even though I know several other Mustang fans don’t. Love the refresh outside, love the tech inside and never been a fan of wings but IMO this one looks great. Still love the 2023 as well but I would take either. I am planning on buying a fun car in the next couple of years and have it narrowed down a 67 or 90 coupe or convertible or 2023 or 2024 premium coupe. When time comes I will see what I can get best deal on but glad I have these choices…thanks Ford

[@elvis1745]

I don"t think I've ever seen an uglier screen in any car. It just doesn't work in something as iconic as a Mustang

[@raymonds7492]

nothing on this car is integrated well, even the dual throttle bodies look weird.

[@davewheeler7679]

There's a lot more uglier screens out there but I agree that it is inappropriate in a Mustang. We need more old school cars with knobs, buttons and a normal dash board.

[@gaspump]

I have a bunch of issues with the S650 but what a shame about that big dumb slab of LCD panel. I know it's everywhere... it certainly doesn't mean it's good. What is it going to look like in 20 years? And that goes for any of these.

Are those panel gaps normal ? Looks like it’s has been crushed and badly repaired in the front bumper and hood area . Other than that it does look cool . Don’t like the screens in the interior but I guess they did their customer surveys and that’s what most ppl want these days .

Obviously it does sell, with a large profit margin, or they wouldn't... But it also carries brand recognition, which is worth a lot to corporations

Finally I get it. I want one with V8, stick shift, performance pack and mag ride. What a deal. It looks far better than the C8. It does not pretend to be a Ferrari or a Porsche. But for 50k, it is all sports car. And the interior is tolerable.

No. Panel gaps are a known issue for Mustangs. However, this S650 is more expensive, heavier, slower and uglier than the previous generation. So the panel gaps are unacceptable this time around.
