2022 Ford Mustang Mach 1

The 2022 Mustang is America's iconic pony car, offered as a coupe or convertible with a choice of turbo four or V-8 power. It squares off against the Chevrolet Camaro and Dodge Challenger, with the Toyota Supra also in the conversation. The Mustang is easy to drive gently, yet it transforms into a sharp sports car when you push it, with multiple drive modes altering the feel. Inside, the cabin offers supportive seats, a modern tech package with Apple CarPlay, and a trunk that fits weekend bags. Some owners note a stiff clutch spring and rattles from the cabin, but these are minor and easily addressed. Stepping up to the Mach 1 from the GT Premium brings track-focused suspension tuning, unique exterior styling, and extra cooling for hard driving. The 5.0L V8 makes 480 horsepower and 420 lb-ft of torque, sent to the rear wheels through the six-speed manual, and you'll feel every bit of it when you get on the throttle. The Mach 1's handling package adds wider tires and a stiffer front splitter, which sharpens turn-in but makes the ride noticeably firmer on rough roads.
