After getting burned, he recently fell down and hurt his eye I believe. The man needs to take a break

When he posted it late last night I thought the same thing 😂

Because they want the attitude and feel of a Mustang, but in a 4 door. 🤣 it’s never been done before! (my favorite marketing term they keep using)

They could do it but it would be a heavy girl.

Cadillac has the CT4 and CT5 they’re not that big (quite fun too). Camry does well because of price and reliability.

Honestly it’s not a secret that their board doesn’t like sports cars for historic reasons. Akio is the one who spearheaded their new renaissance as the CEO (now as the head of the board), but did it over time. He’s trying his absolute hardest to create enthusiasts cars that can capture each...

I know that, they did that because historically they don’t sell many. They recently looked at it though and thought it was good enough to create new sports cars in house with the Celica, Supra, MR2, and a new GR86. They also created a new sports cars platforms platform that pivoted into the...

Yeah it’s crazy to me. Yet these other manufacturers see those small sales and still develop new platforms. I just want to know the thought process behind it all.

That’s what I’m curious about honestly, just because in other worlds that small amount of sales was just enough to justify new platforms. For example Supra and GR86 are drops in the bucket in sales comparably, they were collaboration cars for that reason, but now they’re developing/developed 3...

Yeah but they also outsell those cars by a good amount while being down. I always think it’s crazy how Mustang is down on sales, yet the Supra in 24 sold 2,600 cars. Even outsold much cheaper coupes.

I could only imagine. They would be skeptical, but some would say the Mustang is still outselling other sports coupes by a decent margin, some would say a new chassis would spark more interest, etc. Pretty much what 1987 said above

Shelby ran into a lot of issues with that car is all I remember. GM didn’t make it easy either with him making a Vette competitor.

Can’t believe I forgot about the series 1! Shelby had a whole bunch of issues with that car getting it to production.

Closest they got was that Cobra concept Ford was thinking about producing, but that ship sailed long ago. and like you were saying, even back then if it were produced it was supposed to cost around 83k. That’s in 2004. Lol

When I say debacle what do you think I mean? That the Mach E isn’t good? I’m talking about the video and podcasts where employees working on it and around it didn’t want to name it Mustang, or how Farley said they originally changed the name from just “Mach 1” because of backlash but doubled...

Hate sidetracking threads but the whole Mach E debacle is so weird and stupid. Lol. All the internal struggle with the naming and Farley contradicting himself, is the reason why I can’t take these people seriously when they say “Ford wants to make Mustang into a brand.” Farley wants to make a...

It’s understandable to an extent, but Carroll in his final years did pivot the Third party Mustang line into entry level GTs and modifying special edition Mustangs. He kinda figured out where his shop can go while the Ford Performance group got the legacy names. Now we have GT350 R and...

Yeah, all the “Shelby” cars after the Ford/Shelby reunion could’ve easily been Cobras or Bosses essentially. I could see why Ford went in with the Shelby names though, it was historically the first SVT/FP group for them. Things are just too different now (and like you said a big mess with how...

Just a supercharged widebody kit car.
