How much does the 2021 Ford Mustang cost?

Prices have softened 2.48% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 2,116 listings available, which gives you a solid amount of inventory to compare.

Is the 2021 Ford Mustang a good car?

Yes — the 2021 Ford Mustang earns a 4.71/5 user rating and an 8.17/10 expert rating. The model scores 9/10 across Performance, Cost effectiveness, and Safety.

Owners consistently praise its performance, styling, and feature content, and many also like the fun, engaging driving experience. The Mustang’s retro-modern design and available manual transmission help reinforce its enthusiast appeal, while the broad trim lineup makes it approachable for a range of buyers.

The trade-offs are familiar ones: poor visibility, a cramped back seat, and limited cargo space. That makes it best for you if you want a style-first sports car rather than a practical daily hauler.

With 31.0% of listings marked as good or great deals, you have some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2021 Ford Mustang reliable?

Owners rate it 4.71/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The owner feedback points to a car that many drivers feel good about living with, especially when it comes to performance and overall enjoyment. The review summary also emphasizes that owners appreciate the Mustang’s strong identity and the sense that it delivers what buyers expect from the nameplate.

On the expert side, the Mustang is described as a car that blends old and new in a way that feels durable and familiar rather than gimmicky. Its broad trim structure and available manual transmission also support the idea that it’s built for enthusiasts who want a car they can count on for repeat driving enjoyment.

For used buyers, the main long-term ownership risk is less about outright complexity and more about finding one that has been maintained well and hasn’t been driven hard without proper care.

What should I look for when buying a used 2021 Ford Mustang?

At 73.6% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle history report and then prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if you’re considering a higher-performance trim or a car with modifications. Focus on condition, maintenance records, and signs of hard use, since the Mustang’s enthusiast appeal can mean some examples have lived a tougher life than average.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base EcoBoost includes 17-inch alloy wheels, manual seats, pushbutton start, power door locks, power windows, a leather-wrapped shift knob, 4G LTE WiFi, a six-speaker stereo, and the basic Sync system with a 4.2-inch touchscreen and voice control. The EcoBoost Premium adds 18-inch alloy wheels, a black decklid spoiler, LED fog lights, ambient cabin lighting, dual-zone climate control, power-adjustable front seats, heated and cooled front seats, two USB ports, and Sync 3 with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The GT builds on the EcoBoost and adds a 5.0-liter V8, dual exhaust tips, unique badging, and a unique grille. The GT Premium adds leather-trimmed front seats, vinyl back seats, and two smart-charging USB ports. The Mach 1 adds a fully digital instrument panel, power-adjustable front seats, a split-fold rear bench, and illuminated door scuff plates. The best-value trim is the EcoBoost Premium if you want the strongest mix of comfort and tech without stepping into V8 pricing.
• Powertrain: The EcoBoost uses a 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder with 310 horsepower and 350 pound-feet of torque, with an available High-Performance Package that raises output to 330 hp. The GT uses a 5.0-liter V8 with 460 hp and 420 lb-ft, while the Mach 1 uses the same V8 with an additional 20 hp for 480 hp total. Both engines can be paired with a six-speed manual or a 10-speed automatic, and both are rear-wheel drive.
• Safety package: The standard CoPilot360 suite includes automatic emergency braking, forward-collision warning, pedestrian detection, lane-departure warning, blind-spot monitoring, rain-sensing wipers, and automatic high beams. Adaptive cruise control and parking sensors cost extra.
• Infotainment: Sync 3 brings an 8-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The base system uses a 4.2-inch display, so you’ll want to move up if infotainment matters to you. The system is easy to use, but CarPlay and Android Auto take over the screen and there is no home button below it.
• Fuel efficiency: The 2.3-liter EcoBoost with the 10-speed automatic returns 21 mpg city, 32 mpg highway, and 25 mpg combined. The V8-powered GT with the automatic returns 19 mpg city, 24 mpg highway, and 19 mpg combined. The Mach 1 is estimated at 15 mpg city, 23 mpg highway, and 18 mpg combined.

Which 2021 Ford Mustang trim should I buy?

The 2021 Ford Mustang is offered in 5 trim levels: EcoBoost, EcoBoost Premium, GT, GT Premium, and Mach 1.

Here's the short version:

• EcoBoost: This is the entry point, and it gives you the Mustang experience with the 2.3-liter turbo four, the basic Sync system, and the standard driver-assistance suite. It makes sense if you want the lowest starting price and still want the core styling and driving character.
• EcoBoost Premium: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it adds the 8-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, heated and cooled front seats, dual-zone climate control, and other comfort upgrades without jumping to V8 pricing.
• GT: Choose this if you want the 5.0-liter V8 and the stronger performance identity that many Mustang shoppers are after. It adds the mechanical character that defines the GT, though it does not bring the comfort upgrades of the Premium trims.
• GT Premium: This is the right pick if you want the V8 plus more upscale cabin content, including leather-trimmed front seats and the other Premium-level upgrades.
• Mach 1: This is the most performance-focused choice in the lineup, with the 480-hp V8, chassis upgrades, Brembo brakes, MagneRide, and GT350-derived hardware. It suits you best if you want the sharpest factory Mustang experience.

The standard CoPilot360 safety suite comes on the Mustang, but adaptive cruise control and parking sensors still cost extra.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2021 Ford Mustang?

This is a moderate market for selective buyers, so it pays to compare listings carefully and move quickly on the right car.

• Deal availability: 31.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 2,116 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 2.48% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 73.6% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $28,501, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2021 Ford Mustang's resale value?

The current average of $30,742 sits slightly below last year's $31,524.

That price movement suggests the Mustang has softened a bit, which can help you as a buyer today but may temper short-term resale gains if you plan to sell soon. If you buy at the right price and keep the car in strong condition, you should be better positioned than someone who pays near the top of the range.

The Mustang’s strong enthusiast appeal should help support demand over time, especially for well-kept examples with desirable equipment. Trim, mileage, condition, and maintenance history will matter a lot when it comes time to resell.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.71/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2021 Ford Mustang safe?

The 2021 Ford Mustang earns a 9/10 safety score from our experts.

Ford’s standard CoPilot360 suite includes automatic emergency braking, forward-collision warning, pedestrian detection, lane-departure warning, blind-spot monitoring, rain-sensing wipers, and automatic high beams. That gives you a strong baseline of standard driver assistance for the class.

You should still note that adaptive cruise control and parking sensors are extra, so not every Mustang comes equally equipped. The car’s visibility is described as good for an American sports car, which helps, but you’ll still want to pay attention to parking and low-speed maneuvering.

Should I buy a 2021 Ford Mustang or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2021 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2021 if:

• 31.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 73.6% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 2.48% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.71/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• Ford added the new Mach 1 trim for 2021, expanding the lineup with a more serious performance option.

Consider the 2020 if:

• At $26,155, the 2020 costs less than the current year's $30,742 average.
• It offers multiple powertrain choices and strong value for money.

The bottom line: If you want the newer model-year advantages, broader trim choice, and a stronger safety and tech package, the 2021 is the better all-around pick. If your priority is spending less up front, the 2020 is the smarter value play, especially if you can find one with the equipment you want.
