Image Via Ford.com Most good spy movies end with the hero driving off into the sunset in a sports car, right? Well, how about you being the hero riding off in a 2019 Ford Mustang GT? It may not have the price tag of the sporty muscle car, but it certainly packs a punch with its mix of performance and sophisticated style. Any hero would be at home cruising the coastline with the top down as the sun sets magnificently in the background. Let's look at some of the highlights that you'll enjoy in this beauty. more Power Anyone who loves the roar of a V-8 engine will lust after the GT. Powered by a 5.0-liter V-8 with 460 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque, the GT is a performance beast. The V-8 engine is available with either a six-speed manual or 10-speed automatic transmission. Pushing down on the pedal pins you back in your seat and sends you to 60 mph in just over 4 seconds with the wind rushing through your hair as the dominance of the V-8 thrills you. Performance The Mustang's independent rear suspension enhances the quality of the ride as it holds the road with a classic, yet modern feel. The electric power steering comes in different modes, including normal, comfort, and sport modes. The steering lightens up in comfort mode, offering little resistance, while the sport mode adds a nice amount of weight with much more feedback. You can also choose from various driving modes, which change the vehicle dynamics and handling responses. The available modes are Snow/Wet, Sport, Track, and Drag Strip, all of which add to the performance of the GT according to the situation. Technology One of the fun features of the Mustang is the 12-inch digital instrument cluster that changes depending on which driving mode you're in. The advanced technology is personalized. You can select the layout and colors of the gauges. The GT features the latest technology, such as Sync 3, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and a Wi-Fi hot spot. The front seats also can be heated or cooled. Modern convenience is beautifully balanced with retro style. All models have standard performance metrics in the instrument cluster. These include an accelerometer that displays lateral and longitudinal G-forces, acceleration times and lap times, as well as automatic and countdown starts. Certain features are available for track use only, such as the electronic line-lock and launch control for manual transmission. Electronic line-lock locks the front brakes while the vehicle is in gear to warm up the rear tires. Launch control incorporates the brakes, traction control, and powertrain control to enable smooth, consistent starts. These are the features of a performance car. You'll never regret driving off in this iconic vehicle with its sexy style and responsive handling. In fact, you'll be having so much fun that you probably won't even notice nature's amazing beauty as you flash past with the throaty purr of the powerful V-8 resounding in your ears. Every one of your senses will be entertained.
