Ford Mustang 2019
Carsguide Contributing journalist Peter Anderson had this to say at the time: I'm now ready to step on the Mustang train. Not in a dewy-eyed, Steve McQueen, show and shine way but in a, "Yeah, this is a good car" way. I enjoyed the Mustang's long stay over Christmas, as did the legion of passengers who for some reason needed lift somewhere when I had it. Despite arriving at my house in a perfectly functioning car of their own.

The Ford Mustang is also known as the Ford Mustang GT in markets outside Australia.

Ford Mustang 2019 Q&As
Check out real-world situations relating to the Ford Mustang here, particularly what our experts have to say about them.
-
I'm on a temporary visa here in Australia and I want to import a Mustang from the US...
The importation paperwork and costs will vary from state to state, so you need to check with your home state’s authorities on what’s required. Your chosen shipping company might be able to help you with this, but make sure you check it all out at the Australia Border Force website (abf.gov.au).
While your budget rules out the latest shape Mustangs and the early classic models, you might just find a 1980s Fox-body Mustang or a 1990s model that’s already on the road here. Doing it that way, you stand to wind up with a better car than a cheapie from the States that will swallow several thousands of your budget dollars just to land it here. Which is another way of asking why you’d import something that was already available here?
Even if you still want to import a Mustang, be aware that you’ll be up for costs including (but not limited to) pre-shipment costs (removal of asbestos and steam cleaning) freight and insurance, all government charges and duties, storage charges, customs broker’s fees, wharf and transport charges and processing fees. And that’s before we even get to the modifications you might have to make to the vehicle to make it legal to drive in Australia. And did we mention that, right now, global supply-chain problems are holding up literally thousands of containers on the docks in the US?
Perhaps the one advantage you have is that, as a temporary resident, you can (under some conditions) import a car for a limited time (up to 12 months) without paying duties and taxes.

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

Should I buy a demo car?
Demos are not generally abused; they are mostly driven normally with reasonable care, often under the supervision of a salesman.
You’re worried unnecessarily, and besides, the car will still be covered by Ford’s warranty if it happens to have a problem.

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.

Ford Mustang 2019 Interior
Addressing a key criticism of the sixth-generation Mustang, Ford added a number of soft-touch leather trim to the cabin of its Pony car in the mid-lifecycle update. Also lifting the interior is a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and 8.0-inch Sync3 multimedia touchscreen situated in the dashboard.
The rear seats remain cramped to all but small children, as these images show, but extra safety gear also helps boost the latest Mustang’s appeal.
