  1. Dark Horse vs Nismo Z vs Supra - Everyday Driver

    There are four major elements that distinguish the Z versus the Mustang, 1: American heritage, 2: sound (for the GT), 3: back seats (even though they are tiny), 4: trunk space. The later two apply to daily driving, especially when 3 or 4 passengers are required.
  2. Car and Driver Lightning Lap 2024 - Dark Horse Mustang Results

    More safety equipment, more electronic modules, more frame reinforcements, you name it; the cars get heavier, and until composite superstructures become cheaper to build, every new model tips the scale further over. Mass market cars are not going to significantly supersede their predecessors in...
  3. Price Increase

    The problem I had when I ordered mine, was that, being a new series car with generally favorable options (quad exhaust, nite pony, vapor blue, A8 transmission, GT premium), the dealer I bought from was more than happy to let me walk, as I had my own financing set up and turned down the extended...
  4. European Pricing & Configurator Released for 2024 Mustang

    How does the EU regulate aftermarket upgrades to power? It's possible there may be a tune kit available in a few years, but the US is obviously more permissive in emissions.
  5. Am I being unreasonable with my dealership over a cover issue?

    Don't dealerships make most of their money from servicing? Why be so thickheaded over a $600 item and make it right, they'll more than make up for it later? I've groused about my experience, not the same as yours, but it left such a bad taste in my mouth that I'll never go back.
  6. Lego Speed Champion Dark Horse arrives March 1st, 2024

    Not a Mustang, but in the Ford family.
  7. European Pricing & Configurator Released for 2024 Mustang

    So the German configurator of the GT goes for around 65k euros (x 1.08 for USD), Greece around 85k euros, and Portugal around 125k; ouch. Buy in Germany I guess. Am I missing something here?
  8. European Pricing & Configurator Released for 2024 Mustang

    I will never own a black car. Living in Florida we have rain, bugs, and quarterly dustings of yellow pollen. I'm far too lazy to detail my car more than twice a year. I find a dark grey works wonders as an alternative.
  9. Anyone taken delivery or seen in real life GT in Vapor Blue?

    I'd call it a smoky blue. There is metallic flake, but it's not overdone, even in bright sunlight. As others have noted, is appears less blue and more grey in low light, but so do most things. It's a beautiful color, but as suggested above, there is no way to know if it's what you expect...
  10. Challenger or S650

    To say that a Challenger handles as well as the newer Mustangs (6th and 7th gen) is hard to comprehend. As I stated in a previous post, the platform is ancient and while it was not terrible, the LX platform was ungainly compared to my '24 Mustang. Crosswinds and standing water are not nearly...
  11. Did I just get ripped off?

    Essential Ford dealership in Stuart FL charged me $399 for "ceramic coating"; I tried to get them to remove it (and $199 for an ETCH) from the purchase price, but they refused. It was an ordered car, so as far as they were concerned, since I had my own financing and had already negotiated off...
  12. Exhaust Pop

    Mmm. Not horse friendly for sure. I guess it's normal mode for you. But kudos for the consideration, given a bucking horse is no fun for the rider or passing vehicles.
  13. Exhaust Pop

    It pops, it bangs, it slaps as the 'yoots say... It's a very animated sounding engine, which is why I got the 5.0.
  14. Front inner wheel well issues

    Maybe a duct tape plug with a flange to allow one to pry it back out for maintenance.
  15. Official: 2025 Mustang GTD Revealed! 800+ HP 5.2L V8, Pushrod Suspension, $300K MSRP

    I wonder if they can make that hood as an aftermarket add on.
  16. People keep saying the 24 looks like a Camaro....but I mean look at this older Mustang...I think this looks way more like a Camaro

    I guess I have a wonky eye for esthetics compared to some others here, because I think the S650 is gorgeous, the 6th gen is a good looking car too especially compared with previous gens save the 1st, but the 2024 GT is the best look Mustang built since the '70s. I've never had trouble...
  17. Front inner wheel well issues

    I imagine any welders out there could fashion up a patch, but they'd have to grind away the galvanized coating and so would have to treat the metal with rust resistant/epoxy based paint.
  18. Rear Passenger Rattle

    It's getting really annoying; I have half a mind to have my wife drive the car around an empty area of a parking lot or around the neighborhood while I side in the back and try to isolate the area. It's a plastic sounding, very superficial rattle. I agree that I'd rather not be without the...
  19. Rear Passenger Rattle

    Any updates jexsk?
