Transformers Mustang

Transformers Mustang

Every once in a while, something that’s purely Hollywood comes up for grabs in the real world, and this time, it’s a villain’s beastly ride. Picture this: the iconic Barricade from Transformers: The Last Knight, brought to life through a 2016 Ford Mustang GT. This isn’t just any Mustang; it’s the Decepticon in police disguise.

Details

This Mustang, part of the infamous 2017 movie helmed by Michael Bay, is grabbing quite the spotlight now that it’s available for sale. Even if the movie didn’t knock it out of the park at the box office, with just over $605 million earned worldwide, the fierce design of the Barricade Mustang has a unique allure.

Starting with the aesthetic, it boasts a one-of-a-kind body kit featuring a front push bar, strobe lights, and a slew of additional LEDs. Performing its role as the tough Decepticon law enforcer required crucial visual enhancements like a vented hood, extended fenders, and a large rear wing. Covering the beast is a Deep Impact Blue coat, marked with white graphic accents, including slogans like “Keep Calm and Hail Megatron” and “To Punish and Enslave.”

Performance

Don’t let the looks deceive you into thinking this Mustang is all show and no muscle. Underneath the hood, it rocks a 5.0-liter V8 engine that generates a solid 435 horsepower. Coupled with a six-speed manual transmission, it’s got the guts to back up its menacing exterior. And with only 800 miles on the odometer, the car’s practically brand new – certainly a rarity for a movie prop.

Extras

Besides the car itself, the sale gets even sweeter with official documents and Transformers memorabilia, some even signed by Michael Bay. It’s a dream package for fans of the franchise or unique film cars.

Market

The exact pricing from Curated hasn’t been officially stated, but it’s worth noting that one of the vehicle’s papers cites an original sale price of $131,970. A few years ago, this particular Barricade was part of a four-car set from Michael Bay’s collection, valued at about $2 million.

If owning a piece of cinematic history that doubles as an absolute muscle car sounds appealing, this Mustang might just be the right fit. Interested parties can check out the listing at Curated’s site—the thrill of being the Decepticon cop is just a click away.
