  1. Quality is not job One at Flatrock

    well, dragging your rear thru the dirt berm and ripping the entire ass out wasn't exactly because assembly was bad... Ford really need to revisit that entire trucklid and bolt on wing notion, though. Did no one run FEA and assume only nice, gentle air flow would ever touch it?
  2. I got to drive a S650 for the first time recently.. I'm underwhelmed

    and your rebut is also almost word for word, so.... :) :)
  3. Challenger or S650

    all are available ala carte for the NB except the sways. Except nobody orders them that way. Mine is highly unique for that reason. And I don't have to put up with the stuck-on artificial fenders. :) It is a damn shame the NB doesn't come with flared arches like one aftermarket guy used to do...
  4. Is Your S650 Spying on You?

    not if you don't pull the wrong one. The telemetry is it's own circuit.
  5. Current Interest Ford Interest Rates?

    because X-plan is neither. It's helpful to remember that sales people know next to nothing about the car, the financing, the incentives, or even if it's raining outside.
  6. Love the car, but I have 2 big disappointments

    I sold my car 2 years later with the protective "peel here yellow corner" still on the display. :) Just get a tablet screen protector of approximate size. Or quit touching it like some neandrathal. :) That's what voice commands are for, supposedly.
  7. Challenger or S650

    with proper camber+toe and 305/30 tires on 10.5" wide the NB can more than hold it's own. Does need actually GOOD aftermarket suspension or the 3-way Bilstein package which almost no NB are ordered with, however.
  8. Is Your S650 Spying on You?

    and you honestly think the on-screen labels are accurate? And immutable? And cover what you interpret them to mean? Come on now! Pull the fuse. Like nuking from orbit, it's the only way to be (reasonably) sure.
  9. How much of the GT/DH power is actually usable by the everyday driver?

    come on, man. Haven't you noticed I'm a one-drum band? :) I keep 'subtly' reminding people only 6MT is the correct choice because it is. :) :)
  10. I got to drive a S650 for the first time recently.. I'm underwhelmed

    unless there is a seachange in political/ecological goals, there won't be any Gen8 that's not a slightly gussied up Gen7. A new platform costs $$$$$ and time. Mustang has been selling well enough despite it's many deficiencies and competitive shortcomings.
  11. Quality is not job One at Flatrock

    dealer CAN fix some things. Or order replacement parts to re-fit if it's that bad. Your deposit is also refundable even if the car is flawless. Weather is warm. Ride the 'strom more. :) See, there is upside to this.
  12. How much of the GT/DH power is actually usable by the everyday driver?

    it's refreshing when the patient understands the doctor's instructions. :)
  13. How much of the GT/DH power is actually usable by the everyday driver?

    hardly. And if for some reason your neurons are unable to regulate your right foot there is 'rain/snow' throttle mode. The coyote and i4 makes no power below 3000 RPM. So if you're gonna be afraid of your shadow stay below that. If you want to drive hard and fast on public roads you'll be...
  14. I got to drive a S650 for the first time recently.. I'm underwhelmed

    short of the IRS, the S550 is just a light update to S197. The mopar twins are HORRID handling. Mine has been significantly reworked but it's still a far cry from even an unmolested Mustang. The big girl will hustle but I make sure to tip my Angel extra and in advance.
  15. I got to drive a S650 for the first time recently.. I'm underwhelmed

    I personally prefer the rev-happy nature of the 'yote. I rev the snot out of my Challenger and Camaro too. That's the beauty of the manual. The Mustang MUST come with th 3.73 across the board in all stick-shift applications. Otherwise it's criminal. The cost difference between Getrag and...
  16. Is Your S650 Spying on You?

    you have to be a special kind of stupid to TRUST software.
  17. What's the consensus, leave top stowed or up for days?

    pity this sequence only works on the beach during Spring Break.
  18. Issues with my s650 infotainment system, collision system, brake squeaking, and car suspension

    crappy-ass USB cables are a known problem. Also how old is your PhoneOS?
  19. What's the consensus, leave top stowed or up for days?

    In Tampa there was a 1530 express that dumped sheets of rain, daily. Here's an idea, Ford. Skip 'remote start' why not have 'rain sensing' auto-roof, or failing that 'remote roof'? That's technology that has some actual usefulness.
