Ford has officially launched the configurator for the 2024 Mustang, marking the first phase in a multipart launch. This means that you can now build your perfect sports car to see what it will look like and, someday, how much it will cost.
Right now, there are six trim lines of the next-gen Mustang to play with, starting with the Ecoboost Fastback, which starts at $30,920, running all the way up to the Dark Horse Premium trim that has a starting price of $61,865.
Notably absent from the available options are the convertibles. A document first leaked on the Mustang7g forum, shows that the build and price tool will be rolled out in four phases. The first went live today, and features trim levels, colors, and some options.

The second phase of the configurator is set to go live on April 17th, which happens to also be the Mustang’s birthday. It will have additional trim details, full packages, and more. In May, Ford will offer prospective buyers new images and details on the configurator and, finally, in June everything that it can offer will be added to the website.
For now, if you opt for the most expensive 2024 Mustang available (the Dark Horse Premium) and go for all the bells and whistles – including the $5,495 tarnish dark high gloss/Tuxedo gloss black with pattern Painted Racing Stripe, the car can cost up to $79,515.
That is (as Motor1 first pointed out) more than the starting price of the 2023 Mustang Shelby GT500. Although Ford calls the Dark Horse the most track-focused 5.0-liter Mustang ever, it makes 260 hp (194 kW/264 PS) less than the supercharged Shelby.
That’s unlikely to deter Mustang customers, though, and Ford has started taking pre-orders for some 2024 Mustang, with the order banks expected to open fully on April 17.
