Ford Mustang 2018
Carsguide Senior Journalist Richard Berry had this to say at the time: The Mustang GT is unique in Australia as a relatively affordable high-powered rear-wheel-drive coupe. It’s also accessible in that it’s easy and fun to drive. This car lives us to its iconic name and in my view is the best Mustang Ford has ever created.

Ford Mustang 2018 Q&As
Check out real-world situations relating to the Ford Mustang 2018 here, particularly what our experts have to say about them.
-
Is the 2018 V8 Mustang worth the money?
That's the big question on our lips too John, and I'm afraid we won't be able to answer it until we drive it when the car arrives in June. Given the Mustang's popularity, I'd be very surprised if dealers were willing to deviate much from the recommended price after launch. Perhaps 18 months down the track when demand subsides though!Â

When will the 2018 Mustang arrive in Australia?
A Ford spokesman told us: "The 10-speed automatic will be available in the 2018 Mustang, which is due in Australia most likely around mid-2018 at the earliest. An evolution of the current Mustang, the 2018 model will benefit from increased Driver Assistance Technology, including Autonomous Emergency Braking and Lane-Keep Assist. We would not speculate on the outcome of any potential future testing, but would reiterate that consumer safety is a priority for us, and we are constantly developing more safety technology for consumers. The 2018 Mustang will benefit from such advancements." With respect to a safety rating we can't say what it will be until the new Mustang has been assessed by ANCAP, but you would expect it would be given a higher rating than the Mustang currently has.
