Mustang Price: MSRP, Trims & Real-World Cost

The Mustang spans a wide price range, from the four-cylinder EcoBoost to the supercharged Dark Horse SC. How much a Mustang costs depends on the engine, body style, and equipment you choose.

The 2026 prices below are from MotorTrend and include destination. That makes them closer to a real starting cost than a bare MSRP. This page treats 2026 as the current model year. A newer model year may be priced differently, and no 2027 prices were verified here.

The EcoBoost Fastback is the entry point at $34,990. The EcoBoost Premium Fastback is $38,340, and the EcoBoost Convertible is $42,435.

The Mustang GT Fastback is listed at $49,795. The GT Premium Fastback is $54,075, and the GT Premium Convertible is $59,575.

The Dark Horse Fastback is $67,075. The Dark Horse SC Coupe is the top of the list at $105,485.

For the question most buyers ask, the 2026 Mustang GT Fastback is listed at $49,795. Step up to the GT Premium Fastback and the price becomes $54,075. If you want the GT with a soft top, the GT Premium Convertible is $59,575.

If you are shopping for an older model year, such as a 2024 Mustang GT, pricing is set by the used market rather than Ford's current list, so compare used listings and dealer quotes for that year.

The 2025 EcoBoost Fastback was listed at $33,915, the 2025 GT Fastback at $48,555, and the 2025 Dark Horse Fastback at $66,375. Each of those is below the matching 2026 figure: $34,990 for the EcoBoost, $49,795 for the GT, and $67,075 for the Dark Horse.

Both years come from the same source and both include destination, so the comparison is like for like.

• Engine and trim: EcoBoost, GT, Dark Horse, and Dark Horse SC each sit in a different range.
• Body style: The convertible costs more than the matching fastback.
• Equipment level: Premium trims add features over the base car.
• Options and packages: Ford offers packages that add to the listed price. No option prices were verified here.
• Dealer pricing: Dealers set their own selling price, and markup or discounts depend on supply and demand.

Popular trims, especially the Dark Horse and Dark Horse SC, can attract added dealer charges when supply is tight. On the other hand, slower-selling configurations may come with incentives from Ford or the dealer. Ask the dealer for a written quote that shows any added items and any incentives applied, and check whether the incentive depends on using Ford's financing.

A new Mustang gives you the current model year, a factory warranty, and a choice of specification. A used Mustang can cost less, and prices depend on year, trim, mileage, and condition. If you buy used, ask for the service history and have an independent mechanic inspect the car, as high-performance trims may have been driven hard.

• Insurance: Rates depend on trim, location, and driving record. Performance trims often cost more to insure.
• Fuel: The engine you choose affects what you spend at the pump.
• Tires and brakes: Wear is faster on powerful trims.
• Maintenance: Scheduled service costs depend on the dealer and the work.
• Depreciation: Value declines over time, and the rate depends on trim and demand.

Payments depend on credit, term, and down payment. Compare the dealer's offer with a quote from your own bank or credit union. For decisions about borrowing, consider speaking with a licensed financial professional.

Ford's official website lists current Mustang pricing. Ask an authorized dealer for a written quote that itemizes the price, options, taxes, and fees, especially if you are looking at a newer model year.
