2026 Ford Mustang

The last naturally aspirated V8 pony car standing. The Mustang GT's 5.0-liter Coyote makes up to 486 horsepower and still offers a six-speed manual.

Expert Verdict

Buy the GT with the manual while you still can. The EcoBoost is fine but misses the point.

Pros & Cons

What We Love

  • Available V8 and manual gearbox
  • Dark Horse is a legitimate track car
  • Digital cockpit is a big upgrade
  • Convertible available

Things to Consider

  • Rear visibility is poor
  • Back seat is nearly unusable
  • EcoBoost sounds artificial
