    “Our data shows 17 year olds are dying to spend $72k on a mustang” lmao that’s savage
  • @TML34
    Remember when we thought the 370Z was a heavy pig? The manual base was only 3333lbs, that's light these days! 😅
  • @ArchaicLoL
    An S650 GT in the 60,000 dollar range is mind blowing I remember when the GT could be had for 30,000 dollars.
  • @SelimxBradley
    I can't believe how expensive cars have gotten. These 2 cars should not be over $50k each.
  • @my4cars528
    Ford leaving tie rod end lock nuts loose is hilarious
  • @Trussme96
    Ford asking $60k for a Mustang and leaving tie rod nuts loose is so on brand it hurts
  • @ZDY66666
    What manufacturers don't understand is that cars shouldn't feel like playing video games because video games are made to feel like the thing in real life. I want my game to give joys of driving not the other way around
  • @tri3pleagent
    $62k for a GT is utterly insane. The only variation of the 2024 GT worth it's cost is a base GT with 301A. That's where I'd start and just mod from there.
  • @milesfathi
    I wish the Z was 5 -10k cheaper. I've test driven it twice now. Despite the fact that I really like it, the experience and the quality does not match the price tag. This probably explains why at least here in Canada these are sitting on dealer lots despite msrp pricing.
  • Mr. Savagegeese tripping over the lift adapters @ the 12:16 mark and still leaving it in the final video edit is both savage and real at the same time.
  • @WhosPacci
    The Mustangs’s screen 100% kills any desire I might have had to buy one. It looks so tacked on and kills the look of the interior.
  • @Browean
    I just remember when these things went for $30-$45,000…
  • @kayakkevin
    I am amazed Nissan had the balls to change the Rogue this much generation to generation. Its truly a step in the right direction. The old Rogue was slow and boring and this one (while you cant put your klds in it) is WAY MORE FUN! 😍
  • @ShadowBend
    The previous S550 interior was just... better. The dual cockpit layout is just definitive Mustang. My 09 and 2015 both have it. I don't even mind a digital display, again the S550 did that better with it being integrated into the dash. The exterior is growing on me, as most redesigns do. But the interior would be something I'd have to live with instead of enjoy.
  • @petrbenda3406
    The prices of these cars have recently exploded into unhinged dimensions. Here in Europe the list price of the current Mustang (i.e. previous generation S550) with some options is already on the same level as the Porsche 718. I love the character of the V8 in the Mustang (especially with the adjustable exhaust valves after the facelift), but it will be very difficult to justify another Mustang when I can have a mid-engine Porsche for the same price.
  • @chrish8487
    Car and Driver tested an S650 with a MT and the performance package which weighed 3947! That's almost as much as my freaking Sienna and roughly 750lbs more than my C6 😳
  • @Papolucho702
    Every Mustang owner unaware of the tie Rod issue is gonna be looking within the new few hours lol
