Title: New 2016 Mustang
Post by: birdman on December 15, 2014, 10:44:23 PM

Last week the new 2016 Mustang came through my work for testing purposes.
It's the GT version. I missed it but my work colleague didn't.
It looked,felt and sounded great.

kind of embarrassing to note that even the 4 cyl version puts out more grunt than my v8!

I was quoted 60 to 70k for the 4 cylinder version depending on options from City Ford at Zetland, Sydney.

I saw some at the All American car show, Castle Hill.

I think they look good, especially the convertible. I was surprised to see how much boot space there was!

I did notice that the rear seats sit pretty high though, so I'm not sure how well a tall person would sit in the back seats, therefore, a convertible would be preferable !  :smile:

When it first came out, there were info about the pricing, something like this. ( http://www.nocarnofun.com/pricing-about-the-new-2016-mustang-gt350-and-gt350r-at-49995-and-63495/ (http://www.nocarnofun.com/pricing-about-the-new-2016-mustang-gt350-and-gt350r-at-49995-and-63495/) )

Anyone knows how much a brand new 2016 Mustang would cost?
