When Ford debut the new Mustang at the LA Auto Show, they haven't announced the pricing of this pony car. But now, they've did. Base price for a standard V6-powered 2010 Mustang is reportedly $21,845, including delivery charge. For comparison, its biggest competitor will surely be the Camaro, which starts at $22,995. The other revived pony car is the Dodge Challenger, which in base V6 SE form begins with a $22,545 sticker price. Each of these entry-level models comes equipped with a standard V6 engine, though the Challenger comes only with a four-speed automatic while its competitors offer a stick. Anyone wanting an open-air experience has no choice but to opt for the Ford, as the Blue Oval's offering is the only modern musclecar with an optional drop-top.Moving on to the higher-up V8 GT model, Ford reported that it would start at $27,995. Like the base V6 model, the GT is the cheapest among the big pony cars. The V8-powered Camaro starts at $30,995. And the Challenger HEMI V8 R/T model is a little cheaper than the Camaro, at $30,545. But let us not forget that the Mustang GT is down on power compared to its deadliest rivals.
However, there's a clue with Ford cheap pricing for the Mustang. Whereas the Shelby GT500 is expect to be priced around $42,000, there's a huge price gap between the GT and the GT500. So the question comes, will Ford come up with a Mustang to fill in that gap? Well rumors reported that Ford may come up with a 5.0L V8 Mustang with 400hp at the 2009 Detroit Auto Show in January. So we have to wait until then.
