I expect markups on ERay but not sure what the market will be for it. The Z06 is really close to the ERay in acceleration and trumps it on a track. I have no idea what the demand for one will be.
Adding FI to C8 is 25k+. Not really worth it to me. It isn't a Mustang where you can bolt on a Whipple for 10k and grab 300 extra horsepower. For 25k you might get 150-175hp. Those kits are way too expensive for the gains you can get.
I personally think the best package for C8 is 2LT with Z51 unless you are going Z06 or ERay. The 1LT has nicer leather than a premium mustang but you don't get the cameras and vented seats. 3LT I didn't think was a worthwhile upgrade.
The visibility issues were a legit complaint. As was the infotainment screen that was tilted down. Rest of the interior was pretty basic I agree and I hated the position of the vents being right next to the gear shift.
My biggest complaint and the reason I sold the car is at low speeds it was...
IT guys are pretty important to the modern workplace. We are all car enthusiasts so no need to bash people's professions.
I also love a good torquey V8 engine but the Mustang community LOVES the Coyote engine. They like how high it revs and they like how well it responds to boost. I think there...
According to U.S. Bureau of Labor the average individual income as of Q4 of 2023 was actually 59,384. That is a drop of 10k. So 2024 average income is much lower than 2023.
In 1993 a base GT was 15,747 dollars. Adjusted for inflation today that would be 33,818 dollars for a base GT. A base GT is 43,090 dollars. So Mustangs have increased in price 25% more than inflation. Mustang was once a performance bargain. It is not so much a bargain anymore.
Daily driving a GT 350 would be difficult for me for other reasons. Absolutely can't drive it (or the C8) at all from Nov-April since I live where there is snow. And I'm not putting snow tires on a car like that. I have 2 other vehicles with snow tires.
I have not driven a GT 350 so I don't...
I don't agree the Lightning Lap means "nothing". Cars are driven stock and honestly that is how it should be. Comparing results year over year really isn't valid. Mach 1 had a faster lap than the GT 350R. So did the Dark Horse. Is the GT 350R slower than both of those cars same day? I highly...
S550 generation was arguably the best Mustang generation ever. Expectations for S650 were understandably high. S550 had a rough start as well. The 15-17 GT actually had worse acceleration than the 13-14 and the 2016 GT350 non track pack cooling issues plus all the issues with the MT-82. Ford...
