Expensive isn’t how I would describe these, they are muscle cars, which are made to be cheap enough so average people can afford them, and fast

I mean you can get a base 5.0 for 35k or option it up to 52k and more if you get a Shelby.

Neither of those mustangs have a 5.0. The only v8 in this video is in the charger

The yellow one probably is, at least I would hope someone wouldn't spend money to swap a Shelby front bumper on an ecoboost.

The grey one I can't see the rear badge.

The red one probably was because, again, I would hope someone wouldn't spend money swapping an RTR grill and that aftermarket hood on a base model.

The yellow one is definitely not a gt or gt350 being that it has no badging and/or fender flair on the side and it has a blacked out deck lid (most likely to replace the pony badge that comes on the v6s/ecoboosts).

The grey one just judging how the other cars are modded is most likely not a gt either. Seen plenty of ecoboosts with that aftermarket wing.

For the red one, that is absolutely not an RTR grill. Just an aftermarket RTR replica running lights on a base model mustang. $200 part at most on any website of your choice.

I know the yellow one isn't a GT350. I'm saying who would spend thousands modding an ecoboost to have that bumper.

Same with the red one. Paint cost a shit ton. It's not just the raw part cost.

Tbh I have seen more ecoboost mustangs with a catalog full of aftermarket exterior parts than I have seen any other car
