3 New Muscle Cars for Under $50K in 2025
What is the purpose of muscle cars? To many auto enthusiasts, that's like asking a luxury fashion collector, 'What is the purpose of designer handbags?' You either get it or you don't. And if you get it, you know that muscle cars are classic American status symbols. Vintage muscle cars easily sell for hundreds of thousands of dollars — and some have sold for millions. Find Out: Read Next: It's usually the classic muscle cars that go for the most money, but muscle cars made today can still be very expensive. That said, there are some muscle cars being made that aren't completely out of reach of middle-class buyers. Let's look at three new muscle cars that are under $50,000 in 2025. Starting price: $46,560 The 2025 Ford Mustang GT is the most premium — and most expensive — of the three cars on this list, each of which is a version of the Ford Mustang. This model features a 5.0-liter V-8 engine with 480 horsepower and 415 lb-ft of torque. This sleek machine with a tech'd out infotainment center, can propel from zero to 60 mph in approximately 4.2 seconds. Check Out: Starting price: $37,545 For under $40,000, you can buy the 2025 Ford Mustang EcoBoost Premium (coupe; convertible is closer to $45,000). This powerful car can go from zero to 60 mph in 4.5 seconds — really not that far behind what its superior sibling the 2025 Ford Mustang GT can do. Modern drivers will appreciate the wireless device charging, satellite radio and dual-zone automatic climate control. And let's not forget the heated steering wheel. Starting price: $31,920 Here we have the most affordable 2025 Ford Mustang iteration, and the most affordable muscle car in 2025, period. The 2025 Ford Mustang EcoBoost delivers 315 horsepower and 350 lb-ft of torque. This car may be relatively inexpensive, but it's hardly a lemon. Both diehard racers and first-time muscle car owners have great things to say about this model.

What 'Retro Movies' are playing at Bloomington's Starlite Drive-In in 2025?
Gearheads take notice: The Starlite Drive-in Theater's Retro Movies this year will feature plenty of grease, grilles and growling engines, ranging from the 1968 Ford Mustang GT fastback from the Steve McQueen classic 'Bullitt' to the 1977 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am in 'Smokey and the Bandit' and the 1994 Toyota Supra MK IV used in the original 'The Fast and the Furious' movie. But don't fret if gasoline, gaskets and gauges aren't your thing: The Starlite, 7640 S. Old Ind. 37, will be offering plenty of entertainment for families with little ones, with such fantasy classics as 'The Dark Crystal,' from the mind of Muppets creator Jim Henson, or the animated adventures of Fievel Mousekewitz in 'American Tail' or the live action adventures of Atreyu and the dragon Falkor in 'The Neverending Story.' Here's the lineup for this year's Retro Classics. Movies will start a few minutes after dusk, which means showtimes will vary. Admission to these movies is free. You may be cool, but you'll never be as cool as Steve McQueen when he speeds after bad guys in San Francisco in his black 1968 Ford Mustang GT fastback. Famous movie critic Leonard Maltin said the movie features one of the best car chases ever captured on film. Here's your chance to see it on a big screen. This romantic musical comedy from 1978 features chart-toppers such as 'You're the One that I Want,' and solidified the star power of Olivia Newton-John and John Travolta. Burt Reynolds, Sally Field and Jackie Gleason star in this 1977 action comedy road movie about truck driving bootleggers. From the mind of Muppets creator Jim Henson, this dark fantasy revolves around a quest and a powerful crystal on a damaged planet. Brothers Jake (John Belushi) and Elwood (Dan Aykroyd) are 'on a mission from God' in this 1980 action musical comedy. And while they're asked to play 'both kinds of music: country and western,' you can hear plenty of tunes from other genres, from artists including James Brown, Cab Calloway and Aretha Franklin. The 1986 disaster film was co-written by 'Jurassic Park' author Michael Crichton, stars Helen Hunt, Bill Paxton, Jami Gertz and has lots of special effects. Vin Diesel, Paul Walker and Michelle Rodriguez are in this movie, but the real stars are the cars, smoking tires and roaring engines. Catch the original movie in this series — before it turned ludicrous. Another Jim Henson movie, this one from 1986, and co-directed by George Lucas, of 'Star Wars' fame. This musical fantasy stars David Bowie and Jennifer Connelly. The original 1979 Australian dystopian road warrior film starring Mel Gibson. Weird outfits, weird hairdos, lots of grime, dust, diesel and action. This 1986 sports drama starring Gene Hackman is quintessential viewing for any basketball fan in Indiana or just those who love to root for the underdog. Inspired in part by the Milan High School team that won the 1954 state championship. Executive produced by Steven Spielberg this animated tale tells the story of a family of mice that leaves Russia to find freedom in the U.S. A Howard Hughes-penned comedy starring Dan Aykroyd and John Candy. Think bears and boats and lightning strikes. Another animated movie executive produced by Spielberg, this 1988 adventure film depicts the adventures of a young apatosaurus named Littlefoot and his companions, which include a triceratops, a stegosaurus and a saurolophus. In this 1988 adventure film, a group of kids (played by actors including Sean Astin, Corey Feldman, Martha Plimpton and Ke Huy Quan) try to save their homes from foreclosure by following a treasure map that leads to the long-lost fortune of legendary pirate One-Eyed Willy. Goonies never say die, even if they hear, 'Hey, you guys.' A teen (Kevin Bacon) moves from Chicago to a small town, where a strict dancing ban is administered by the local minister (John Lithgow.) You already know what's going to happen, but you won't be able to keep your feet still because of the chart-topping and Oscar-winning title track. A Christmas comedy starring Will Ferrell as Buddy, the elf. A 1990 sports drama starring fast cars and Tom Cruise, Nicole Kidman, Robert Duvall, Randy Quaid and Cary Elwes. This 1978 coming-of-age movie was written and directed by George Lucas and stars Richard Dreyfuss, Ron Howard and an at-the-time unknown carpenter named Harrison Ford. The 2001 animated comedy features the voices of Eddie Murphy, Cameron Diaz, John Lithgow and Mike Myers as the eponymous ogre who tries to rescue a princess. This 1984 fantasy based on a German novel by Michael Ende tells the tale of young heroes fighting 'The Nothing' with the help of a night hob, a rock biter and a luck dragon named Falkor.

200kmh teen 'wanted to have some fun'
A Dunedin teenager caught driving his new Mustang more than 200kmh told police he "wanted to have some fun in it". Senior Sergeant Anthony Bond, of Dunedin, said police stopped a 19-year-old at 11.55pm on Saturday after he was seen going 202kmh on the Southern Motorway - more than double the 100kmh speed limit. The driver had bought the car, a 2019 Ford Mustang GT valued at about $60,000, about three weeks earlier. He told officers he had taken the Mustang out because he "wanted to have some fun in it". The fun soon ended and due to the excessive speed, he was charged with driving at a dangerous speed and his car was impounded for 28 days. His licence was also suspended for 28 days and he would appear in Dunedin District Court on May 30. Snr Sgt Bond said driving at those speeds was ''a disaster waiting to happen''. "The faster you go the bigger the mess, and at going twice the speed limit, you're not going to survive any crash — it's just dumb."
