I saw an S650 in person for the first time at an auto show in January, and my immediate reaction was, "Oh, it looks better in person than in pictures." I looked inside, and while the screens weren't powered on, they still looked smaller than I expected. My overall impression was that if my '18...

It sounds like everyone is disappointed by the lack of steering feel, and these guys came to a different conclusion than SavageGeese did.

Posting mostly for humor, but there are some good observations here as well:

I'm not sure if this is the right place to put this, but Edmunds did a Dark Horse track review:

More discussion about that video here, from a previous posting: https://www.mustang7g.com/forums/threads/motortrend-2024-mustang-gt-vs-2023-challenger-scat-pack-wb-head-to-head-review.158276/

My hood on my 2018 was off like that when I went to pick it up, so I said something at the dealership and they did the same thing to fix it - adjusting the rubber stoppers at the top - and was good to go.

I can't find the video now but I saw a review video that said Porsche did this to reduce noise and fuel consumption. The long gearing, especially on the lower gears, reduce the RPMs when starting and driving at lower speeds, which keeps the noise down when driving at lower speeds. All due to...

Yeah, that was a weird review. And it's almost like the reviewer had seen other reviews of the '24 and just wanted to say something different.

I'm not an American Muscle shill or anything, I just had these pop up in my feed, so I'm passing them along. Here, they dyno all generations of the Coyote on the same day using the same equipment. As they point out, the torque seems off, but anyway, here it is:

Are you paying the same now as you were in 1985? If you're paying more now, wouldn't that mean your rates have gone up? I think what BlackFerret meant is that overall, insurance companies charge more to insure cars that have a history of higher claims, but they don't just raise the rates...

I had a 2004 New Edge SN95 Mustang with fake side scoops and a hood scoop glued on, and those were my biggest issues with the exterior. I think the styling of the subsequent versions look even less appropriate for side scoops.

As I recall, the first versions of the SN95 side scoops did that as well. That was changed with the mid-cycle update.
