As a prior owner of a 2020 GT500 loaded I can attest my S650 Premium interior is much nicer and of higher perceived quality. Kind of blows my mind that a 62k car has no seat memory lol.
You are running on many assumptions. You don't know the metal cost in a Mustang. You also don't know what Ford pays for it and the increase if any.
"Does Ford still make its own steel?
In 1920, Ford began making its own primary steel at its River Rouge automobile complex in Dearborn. The...
Sorry to hear that. The mustang 5.0 has direct injection as well as port injection to increase efficiency and avoid head and valve issues that port injection only causes. I personally will only buy certain European vehicles without a warranty. The new Acura TLX type S is probably bullet proof.
I actually like the looks of the Lexus. Your Audi S5 has a v8 as I recall which is a great powerplant. Yes a cars performance is a deciding factor in my purchases. If you want to cross shop a car that performs as well as the S650 at similar cost you should consider the BMW M240i. I love the BMW...
Just like you these reviewers for the most part spent very little time with the car. In addition the car they spent time with had an option list that does change the character of the car. The magnaride is an improvement over the S550 iteration imo.
How the HECK are you privy to the expenses of Ford and the actual cost of doing business? EXACTLY what tariff is causing a 25 percent cost increase ...? Of course you must have Trump derangement syndrome since you need to insert him into the conversation. Any more made up "^&*()" crap you want...
Make sure we tell Ford to cut everyone's salary so we can get these cheaper. Either that or we have a third world country build them. Send them all to Mexico!
Interesting you drove the cheapest Mustang available and judged the S650 overall...? You think the motor has promise and that's pretty much it. At least that is my perception of your biased review. You do realize that readers of these posts are already owners or are contemplating purchasing a...
I like the current screen setup in the S650 but I totally agree this low profile curvy screen would have looked much better at probably zero extra cost. Ford engineers and designers need to wake up. As much as I like the current S650 I don't think it looks as good as most of the prior iterations...
I plan on trying track and dragstrip mode. I doubt i'll change the tires in an attempt to improve 0-60 times. zero wheelspin huh? I hate to call bs but I gotta say......
2 days ago I decided to try some 0-60 runs with my dragy and just hitting the gas in sport mode I got a 3.91 with a 1 ft rollout on my second run. I was getting quite a bit of tire spin. I bet if it hooked it would be closer to 3.5 to 3.6. I have minor mods. I removed the carbon from the intakes...
I always want a good sound system in my cars (I have had MANY) so I am willing to spend extra for the premium audio system. In the case of my 24 Mustang GT I really like the B&O system. It has great clarity and good power. Some think it should have more speakers but I haven't felt it needs them...
