Buying a 2019 - questions

[Rambosupreme]

I am in the market for a used 2019 or low miles 2018 GT.
Must have option is the digital instrument cluster.

anytime I do a search in CarGurus or other sites, all GTs have the regular style instrument cluster.

how do I search and filter GTs with digital version of it?

please help.

There are 2 premium packages 400a and 401a. That cluster is under the 401a premium package. Usually the filters take you down to a premium trim but they cant tell you which premium package it is.

I have the 401a on both the Bullitt and the '18. The '18 was used. My suggestion is to look for the '18 or '19 used with the 401a, A10, and STOCK suspension unless you are going to track the car. My Bullitt has the PP1 and Magneride and my '18 with 20" wheels and stock suspension rides better and handles fairly good. Better ride than the Bullitt. The stock exhaust is like "normal" on the active exhaust Bullitt and more than loud enough for me. When I was looking for an auto car the 401a, auto and 355 gears were a non-negotiable. It also had the "safe and smart" package and the 20" wheels. I found I love both. I can't really tell the difference between the stereo in the Bullitt with the "electronics" package and the '18 with its stock stereo. First thing I did after getting the A10 was to block the sound tube. Dumb thing. Honestly, I look forward to driving the '18 A10 over the supercharged Bullitt. I know the purists probably think this is heresy. Own both. Like the A10 lots better, especially with a tune the quickens up the shifts and makes the car more race like.

Rahmbo, keep looking. Make a list of "non-negotiables" including the color. I used autotrader, car gurus, ebay, etc. I would rather have a one owner that was kind of naive on cars and took it to the dealer for every little think including the oil changes. I bought a car with 29,777 miles on it that was meticulously maintained right down to the custom floor mats from a Subaru dealer. Flew to the dealer. They picked me up and the car was flawless in Ruby Red. I even think it was ceramic coated as it is super slippery. This is the 6th Mustang I have bought out of town where the dealer picked me up. All but one were used and every one of them exceeded my expectations. Get DETAILED photos and look for BS in the salesman's talk. All cars except the new Bullitt were at non-Ford dealers. Then if you are very serious and the sticker isn't available, but the sticker off Malroney for 8 bucks to insure the options.

Good luck and good hunting!

Yes, its certainly worth a try. Problem is, in my experience, they either fail to add that in the description or just simply dont know what package it is. (If were talking used)

I can’t comment on your question but if I may ask, why are you looking for used when you can find a 2019 with huge discounts?

As others have said, you have to look for the 401A option package. If that's not something you can choose on Cargurus.com, then you just have to read & look at each listing.

And being realistic, 90% of private sellers wouldn't know that having the digital cluster means the car has the 401A package, and aren't going to put it in the ad. Dealers just won't care, some don't really know, or won't go to the effort to figure that out and put it in the ad. And even if Cargurus.com has a "401A" choice you can make, I'd bet many 401A cars won't be listed that way.

You're just going to have to do your own homework.

Yah, but I think what he is referring to is used. The OP seem to indicate that that is what he is looking for.
