VINs for Aussie RHD Mustangs differ to their native LHD variants, notably with characters 5, 6, and 7 (body code). I've cobbled together this infographic below that explains the 17-character VIN. This information is a result of asking a dealer, a deep dive on the interwebs, correlation, and...

Ford Australia will launch the "all new" Mustang on September 14, 2024 (which is a Saturday). Early arrivals are already popping up in multiple showrooms in SE Queensland.

A two part talk that car enthusiasts should watch. It touches on a number issues, and I especially like the discussion about EVs in part 1. :giggle: The car industry is lying to you… (Part 1) Feat. John Cadogan The car industry is lying to you (Part 2) Feat. ReDriven

General information! Below is a step-by-step tutorial so you can track the progress of your Mustangs voyage to down under. From the Port of Baltimore to Australia, your Mustang will be transported on a Wallenius Wilhelmsen RORO (Roll On Roll Off) vessel. Ask your Ford dealer which vessel...

What's going on in the garage? Well, still waiting on the Mustang to be built, and shipped down under. :ontheloo: In the meantime... Have you noticed how many vendors in the USA do not ship outside of the USA? Very frustrating! I know freight forwarding services exist to get around this, but...

For my fellow Aussies... I was working in Houston all of last week, and after that finished, dropped in on a mate (another ex-Melbournian!) who now reside in Dallas, enroute back home. You've probably heard the saying "Everything is bigger in Texas"? Believe it! He took me to one of his local...

I don't normally buy gas petrol from Shell, but a second S650 to choose which one to keep would be nice. FYI... https://www.shell.com.au/motorists/promotions-and-offers/mustang.html If you win as a result of seeing this post, you're welcome, and sending a carton or two of beer my way would...

Everything You Missed At Ponies in the Smokies 2024!

I stumbled across this video this morning. Most Aussies won't find anything new, but this retrospective look back is interesting all the same. It brought back a few memories of my 1977 XC Fairmont GXL with the 4.9L V8 that I had in late 80's. Fuel economy was abysmal (jets were way too big...

I really like the RTR S650 side graphics. Clean and simple. RTR will only sell these as a part of a more expensive package, and not separately. :crying: I'd get the Steeda Sidewinder decals, if it weren't for their branding. Just want plain, clean and simple. Does anyone know of a...

FYI... Does Engine Break-In Affect the Horsepower on Your 2024 Ford Mustang?

Here we go. A fuel efficiency tax, to push the public towards EVs. Because EVs are going to save the world. Right? EVs, of course, that are only ever charged during the day from solar etc or other renewables, never by conventional base load generation. The ALP is targeting 141g/km as a...
