A 7th generation Mustang arrives in 2024, but the sixth generation has more than enough to satisfy. The GT is the least expensive way to get a V8 under the hood of this famous pony car and a six-speed manual is standard. You can opt for a 10-speed automatic but really, why would you? The Mustang remains a classic with plenty of options to turn it into a track monster, but some find the interior quality to be sub-par. The Mach 1 will give you better handling and a bit more power. If you’re looking for monster power, step up to the Shelby GT 500.
