If we compare the sales numbers for sports cars with other brands in 2024 the sales are still much better for the Stang!!
Only BMW has higher numbers if you add the two and four series models, but that would be like adding Mustang Mach-E to the mustang number and in that case Ford would win...
Now that we all have in our 2024 Mustang a fully configurable instrument cluster with custom gauges, I was hoping that Ford would include some cute notes on the speedometer like I recall in my 2016 V6 mustang that had a nice note "Ground Speed MPH". I hope in the future they include some...
For those that may not know, but Ford knows.... in 1986 I had the best Mustang with Bosch Anti-Lock brakes and great V8 and the best seats and interior and it was called "Lincoln Mark 7".
Why not make a four door Lincoln based on the S650? That would help increase the sales of the S650...
If there are buyers undecided and thinking about getting a Mustang..........Here attached is a concluding cut page 66 from December 2023 Car&Driver magazine on the 2024 ECO-boost Mustang.
BTW- in October 2023 CD issue had the concluding lines for the Mustang GT ;

For those that have purchased the DH, The 2023 Ward's News Letter (copy attached) I will quote the Author Drew Winter
"Most hardcore enthusiasts can only dream of owning a 500-hp street- and track-focused performance car that also can be a daily driver, but that is what the Mustang Dark Horse...
If your price is locked with the dealer where you ordered the car I would wait until it arrives.
I waited for 5 month to get my DH and it was worth the wait. I am guessing that prices will go up very soon once the tariff wars start and dealers will make sure that the cars they have on their lots...
Yes, the prices are going up, but I purchased my mustang for the V8 and the 6 speed manual. Find me another new V8 American car with 6 speed manual that costs less ?
I think that they(FORD) have done more then nothing in the last 20 years, just look at the chassis IRS, MagneRide, brakes and other safety features. I am not sure you need re-design iconic vehicles every few years as long as you can properly target the product to the next generation.
Note Ford...

In Europe they state that the 2024 Mustang is true re-birth of the American Icon!
Here are the...
In the year 2023 the lowest price V8 sports car was Camaro priced around 40K. Since they no longer make that car if you select the 2025 Model year~45K Mustang GT today, there is no other new V8 car on the market under 40K. Ford can keep the price as is today or increase it, but if you want to...
I agree with your impressions! The DH is worth the extra cash over the GT. You should check out this video. The DH has the best stopping power for a car that has a curb weight close to 4000 pounds. In addition the sound of the engine alone is amazing under acceleration and manual Tremec is...

Please see if this touch screen UI stuff could be simplified. For example could all the lighting controls be just on one screen under a single button "Lighting Controls". Why do I have to touch four levels down for each of those controls? As I am reading the User Manual if the UI was simpler...
I am following the tire break-in period per tire manufacture should be 500 miles. During this time the engine is doing it's break-in period as well. It is funny that I never noticed tire break-in back in the good old days being advertised as required, I guess the rubber and mfg. process has...
I totally agree with you about the heat and AC control screen. I keep hoping that maybe a software update in the future could improve the interface and make the icon buttons larger as my fingers are bigger then the icons. Hey, if Ford can give us different dashboards maybe they can improve the...
