Not to mention repair costs. Bespoke cars, limited numbers, big bill for a new bumper...

The market will not support a $70K electric muscle car, so the price reduction seems appropriate. I saw a nice new red R/T for $41K.

I have a driver side rattle that pops up occasionally, seems to be coming from the B pillar, and it can be pretty noisy.

You have the Nissan Z400, 2024 Challenger (there are some new ones about), Mazda MX-5, Toyota Supra...

Well a gently used Vantage can be picked up for around 90K, its almost the same car, a V8 instead of a V12, but it is an Aston Martin, and a looker for sure.

So how does Mustang keep pace in demand with say a Porsche 911? The 911 sold around 14000 in 2024, vs 44000 for the Mustang. The Mustang is not a prestige car, the 911 is. Do we want the Mustang to become a prestige car, well I can't imagine why? So how does a company increase sales for a...

The Berlinetta would be my second choice. :)

The 599 is still my favorite 12cyl Ferrari.

I enjoyed Hammond's review. This other crap is not "what I needed", please take it to another thread.

May all your cylinders be 8 (or 4 if you're so inclined), and may your exhaust notes wake the neighbors, if they sleep in after 9!

Time will tell regarding EVs. No shade to the F-150, it does what it was designed for, and reliably.

Well, in 30 years, those who have the early versions without stop/start looking to sell these as "classics" can claim it as an "enhancement". Maybe I should hold onto mine...

Range will increase; heavy use vehicles are a work in progress. You are using a metric to compare IC tech to EV tech as they are now; EV tech is in its infancy, IC is not.

EVs pollute a lot less, once they are made and assuming carbon costs of electricity are partly mitigated by the method of power generation. Carbon footprint is better on EVs but it's not green by a long ways; now if you start making the majority of electricity with renewables that have less...

In the not too distant future, say 20 years, lithium is probably going to be replaced, perhaps by aluminum, perhaps high density capacitors/non-liquid electrolytes will become viable, so hopefully the notorious safety issues from rechargeable batteries may be mitigated.

Dodge warranties their hybrid batteries for 10 years/100,000 miles; I don't know what the warranty will be for these, but it's probably the same. Power train should be similar to current cars, 5 years/60,000 miles. Battery replacement is pretty rare though, but time will tell; I am not going...

The Dodge has a universal platform, rather than one dedicated to electric power, so they can use the six cylinder engine. Weight savings with more aluminum, integrating the battery into the frame, and using compact components (vs. having bulky motors and a two speed transmission) could have...

In related news, the ICE I6 "Sixpack" version is being fast tracked for summer's end 2025. The EV is estimated to have a curbweight of 5800lbs; the Sixpack is estimated to be around 4200lbs.

The S550 was the first Mustang I saw since the 1st gen that I thought was a really nice design. Once the S650 design and new interior were revealed, I was sold. In terms of edge, I would agree that the front and rear are more angular, but the side to me is the real improvement because there...
