The Mustang has a unique look that sets it apart from other sports cars. Its long hood and short deck are instantly recognizable, and the 2024 model year has some exciting design updates that will turn heads. The front grille has been revised with a new shape that emphasizes the Mustang's aggressive stance. The headlights have been redesigned to be sleeker and more modern, and the rear taillights now feature sequential turn signals.

Under the hood, the 2024 Ford Mustang GT is mechanically stock, which means it is equipped with the same 5.0-liter V8 engine that has made Mustangs famous for decades.

The Mustang GT also features a standard six-speed manual transmission, but a 10-speed automatic is available as an option.
