FO 2024.50MY Dark Horse Fastback 2dr SelectShift 10sp 5.0i With a seventh-generation model looming, Australia's most popular sports vehicle, the Ford Mustang coupe and convertible, continues as a vital presence for Ford. The Mustang can corner, sounds terrific and is laden with tech and safety equipment that includes high and low-speed AEB, lane-keep assist, blind-spot monitoring with assistance and seven airbags. But there no ANCAP stars. At 347kW/550Nm the 5.0-litre V8 delivers a guttural punch, either with the standard six-speed manual, or the optional 10-speed auto. The entry 2.3-litre four-cylinder turbo High Performance Mustang produces 232kW/474Nm and is no lame duck - either in its aural presence or its accelerative capabilities.
