2018 ford mustang gt review

With up to 800-hp of low-end boost. Wow. The Mustang GT – a very capable pony car that can produce up to 460 horses and 420 pound-feet of torque right out of a Ford factory. Its naturally-aspirated engine is something we car nuts love, especially that low-end torque that’s guaranteed to keep your head nestled on the headrest. But…

It’s one fast wagon. Thanks to Americans believing wagons are icky, the U.S. market is thin on sporty station wagons. Instead, we opt for large, unnecessary crossovers and SUVs that better accentuate our large waistlines. That means we don’t get the Audi RS6 Avant – a 605-horsepower people mover. We can complain about the lack of wagons…
