Thrashing the 2025 Ford Mustang on road and track!

[@Mouldyturnip75]

Why not. Good to see a brand still holding onto its race heritage and providing owners with options to drive them like you'd expect. Go FORD.

I miss the Falcon...

Good to see Ford holding out with the V8 ( Stellantis? Anyone home??)

[@Jtemple30]

@@Dugite-u7j Stellantis is busy building overpriced EVs that nobody wants to buy lol. RIP Challengers

Very good real world review 👍🇦🇺

[@peaceloveandunity97]

I think the car is pretty special just because they carried the mustang on, i am heart broken as we all are about holden and ford Australia, so this is special to me

Production on the 2025 doesn't start until Nov 1. So how is that "Thrashing the 2025 Ford Mustang"?

[@DWH300]

Do you have the ability to test a Dark Horse R. You'll find it's a completely different track car since it basically a race car setup by Ford for the new IMSA Dark Horse R Mustang racing series.

[@destinyangel5]

Is this new 10 spd a bit quicker? did Ford adress the complaints and make it better or still same as FN 10spd ? The FN 10 spd auto had a slight delay on first to second and the Fn Gt 5.0 seemed a bit slow to get off the mark .

[@nickkostakis9600]

Great show with two BRILLIANT cars I don’t want to mention that eco-boost. It’s a joke. I love the V8 power and fantastic sound 😊

[@jessicaphoenix1312]

Nice S550.650 Methinks the Mach 1 and GT 500 are better options and better bang for buck, especially until the S650 is tunable!

[@jesus_built_my_hotrod]

Cool car with the V8

[@edthomas8486]

If you don’t like the rev-match why don’t you turn it off???

[@DWH300]

Have you driven a manual GT with Rev match. To be honest it's a huge help especially on the track. I find it an excellent feature. Maybe test drive a new manual S650 GT. If you can find one. Test drive a Dark Horse.

[@Deano.1978]

The Tremec vs Getrag ratio comment makes sense. 1:1 in the DH is 5th, on the GT its 4th.

[@darrenpowell8229]

I’m pretty certain the DH has a 3.73 diff compared to the 3.55 in the GT too which would make sense with the lap time too and acceleration between corners.

[@stewart-D]

Gen 2 has mt82 in which 1:1 is 5th , ford changed that in 18 onwards to 4th being 1:1 , this was for economy and it killed it for track use

[@Deano.1978]

Dont have much choice when it comes to new American muscle. Chevy doesnt make new Cameros and Dodge Charger Challengers are way overpriced, have severe lot rot, and terrible quality.

[@damoryan3873]

This should be fun

[@stewart-D]

Can’t tune them ! These cars thrive on the aftermarket , especially boost

[@wadeayoub9799]

you will be able to tune them in the near future.

[@turbotheamericanstaffy]

Absolute rip off price. The FN looks way better. Mustangs are meant to be affordable for the working class. Since its launch in Australia it has almost doubled in price. It's not twice the car.

[@djgreeny1]

Cool car. Poor review.

What has happened to motoring journalists ? They seem to have become dweeby, pencil necked, gamer types. Where have all the men gone ?

[@STREETMACHINETV]

Scott Newman is a better driver than you even dream that you are, and a motoring journalist of many years. He came fourth overall in the Optima Ultimate Street Car Challenge in an electric Hyundai and that's after they penalised him for showing up in a standard car. If it wasn't for that he would have come third overall. Think about that before you make silly comments.

[@7071t6]

mustangs version of a hsv basically, badging and suspension and brakes thats it, you would think that they would have ashelby version meaning a supercharged engine and with the new suspension changes and better brakes, plain and simple and i bet a lot of owners will get oen and have them sit in a shed ,thinking its worth more than gold, all ford owners are like that its a bloody car mate, nothing special, its not a shelby or gt40 plain. would not buy one even if you gave it to me, would not own one, HOLDEN all the way and Chevy all the way full stop. I would buy a new C8 corvette any day of the week compared to this crap.🦘🦘✌✌

[@mahcooharper9577]

The C8 is way more expensive than the Mustang and isn't a traditional muscle car. They're not real competitors.

[@7071t6]

@@mahcooharper9577 yep but a way better car and much better looking ,compare the shelby to it maybe, but they are more expensive and you do not get a new shelby for less than 250k ? So a C8 depending on options is way better value for the money?

[@mahcooharper9577]

@@7071t6 it depends what you want. I'd rather have a larger, front engine rear wheel drive manual V8 muscle car than an auto only mid engined V8 faux supercar. I can honestly say if the C8 and Dark Horse were the same price I'd still prefer the Mustang. I wouldn't pay C8 money for a Dark Horse, but when they bring a hugely powerful Mustang out (which they inevitably will) it'll be more appealing to me than a C8 even if it won't lap a track or do a quarter as fast. Like I say, they're not competitors. They're not the same thing. People who bought WRXs weren't comparing them to SS utes. The Mustang isn't trying to be faster than the Corvette.

[@7071t6]

@@mahcooharper9577 i know i just like the c8 i would buy one if i could afford it and even a mustang if i could afford it plain and simple,cheers 🦘🦘✌✌

[@mahcooharper9577]

@@7071t6 I agree, the C8 is a wicked car. It's just not to everyone's taste. Compared to a Ferrari it's amazing value, that's for sure.
