The Ford Mustang has always been about freedom. It makes sense when you think about its name. Surprisingly, how the Mustang got its name is actually a major topic of controversy among some people. Regardless of the true origin of the name, what has stuck around when it comes to the Mustang is the principle of free-roaming horses, as well as P-51 Mustang planes. The Pony car has long been combined with both icons, both in photography and videography, as well as special edition P-51-inspired models. 2024 Ford Mustang Engines With the introduction of the new, 2024 Ford Mustang, people are customizing their cars through orders like never before. Starting at just $32,515, the new car is a bargain for its feature set and performance. Under the hood is your choice of either a 2.3-liter EcoBoost Turbocharged Inline-4 cylinder engine producing 315 horsepower and 330 lb-ft of torque. V8 Mustangs feature the 5.0-liter Coyote naturally-aspirated V8 that produces 480 horsepower and 415 lb-ft of torque. The top-of-the-line Dark Horse keeps the Coyote and takes it to 500 horsepower and 418 lb-ft of torque. Transmissions 2024 Mustangs with the EcoBoost engine only come with the 10-speed automatic transmission, while the GT buyers choose between a 6-speed manual or the 10-speed. Dark Horse models get the Tremec TR-3160, the transmission that was in the 2015-2020 GT350, and the 2021-2022 Mach 1. Standard GT Mustangs get the tried and true MT-82 6-speed manual. Option and Color Take Rates According to Ford, 27% of all orders thus far have been placed with the manual transmission. Interestingly, 50% of EcoBoost buyers have opted for the Electronic Drift Brake when optioning the High-Performance Package, which is a higher take rate than on EcoBoost HPP cars over the past 3 years. Of all the available options on the 2024 Mustang GT, 22% have opted for the Performance Package, and 26% have checked the box for the Nite Pony Package. The Nite Pony Package includes a black grille, roof, wheels, badges, rear spoiler, mirror caps, and black bezel headlamps. The top color choices owners have chosen for EcoBoost and GT cars have been, 17% Shadow Black, 13% Oxford White, and 11% Rapid Red. Dark Horse customers have overwhelmingly preferred Blue Ember at a take rate of 39%, 18% for Vapor Blue, and 16% chose Shadow Black.

One of the joys of owning a car is making it your own, whether that be adding visual or performance modifications. This can get confusing, though. What happens when you buy a cold air intake from one company and a supercharger from another company?  And who are you going to trust to do the work for your new vehicle? This can be very daunting and frustrating, especially if you have a budget you want to work with. The Benna Toy Store offers custom vehicles from Shelby, Roush, Waldoch, and Tuscany Motor Co. by Fox Factory, and instead of trying to figure out who is going to build your next vehicle, we already have those vehicles at our dealership waiting for you to come check out and drive home. We take the fear out of dealing with aftermarket parts, service, and customization by building and modifying vehicles for you. If you are looking for a vehicle in a specific color or with certain options that we don’t currently have at Benna Ford, we are happy to sit down with you and go through everything that you would like done to your next vehicle.
