  1. S650 GT Convertible | Miami International Auto Show (pics + vids)

    Very nice review and photo set. My main concern with the screens is That there is no sunshade for them. I recently replaced the head unit in my F350 with an aftermarket so that I could use apple car play in it. One of the biggest problems I have with that is that in any kind of light, it gets...
  2. Ezra Dyer: Mustang Is a Vibe.... It's an Attitude, Not a Format.

    Wow...the absolute hatred on this thread... Sorry, but I think Ezra hit the nail on the head. Yes, people like "their" Mustang, but lets face it, everyone has their era. I know people who love fox bodied Mustangs. Some love the 67 mustang shape. Others the G5 body style. I also know people...
  3. No fog lights on the S650

    I live in Delaware south of the canal. That means that where I live, there is a tremendous amount of fog that tends to hang around. I have a BMW and an F350. The BMW has much better headlamps than my F350. They turn when you turn the steering wheel, auto level, they have great projection...
  4. Chief Engineer of S650 Mustang talks Coyote, EcoBoost, Dark Horse Upgrades

    except, that is one of the cars Ford is putting itself up against. The whole point of the S550 was to go more upscale in the market. At this point, you either do, or you don't, and part of that should be better numbers for a similar or higher price.
  5. S650 Coyote V8: Differences in GT vs Dark Horse

    Taurus size is more to the 5 series than 3/4 size. I know, as I was cross shopping those two (plus the Lincoln). Today's m550 is 536 hp beast. Chevy SS was 415 hp..and as you said, this was years ago. Today's Charger Scat Pack is 485. So based on that, I would expect minimum 425-430 hp from a...
  6. S650 Coyote V8: Differences in GT vs Dark Horse

    don't know what you are seeing, but top end luxury performance sedans are in the upper 400s to almost 700 Yes, I know, they are much more expensive than the SHO was, but with the SHO, I would have expected upper 400s by now.
  7. Chief Engineer of S650 Mustang talks Coyote, EcoBoost, Dark Horse Upgrades

    I seriously doubt they would limit a HP number just to keep it under a previous generations HP figure. They might limit it to ensure longevity of the powertrain over a broader range of owners though. They would also limit it if a future Shelby model was not expected to have that big an...
  8. GT or Dark Horse? (The Important Differences)

    this is why I hoped they would put the DCT from the GT500 as an option
  9. The new dashboard is a big mistake IMO

    My first introduction to a digital dash (and automatic shoulder belts) was a 1985 Toyota Cressida. As you can see, this was very much a design of the 80s, but back then, it was very different from anything coming out of almost anywhere outside a TV studio. One of the biggest problems was...
  10. NEW Gen 6 3.0L Whipple Supercharger for the 2024 Mustang!

    hmmm, This looks like it won't be able to make use of the dual air boxes either. I wonder why not.
  11. 2024 Ford Mustang Mach 1 Potentially Spotted Testing With Current Model

    one other thing...they don't have a lot of years to make everything happen with them going electric in 2028, so I would expect to see a lot of "last hurrah" versions, sort of like Dodge is doing this year.
  12. 2024 Ford Mustang Mach 1 Potentially Spotted Testing With Current Model

    First off, I think that if you were to consider today's Mustang lineup (EB, GT, Mach 1, and then the Shelby models), then even though the GT is (absolute performance wise) might be moving up to where the Mach 1 was, in a relative scale, the GT remains the same, and the Mach 1 is replaced by the...
  13. Do you like the new rear lights on S650 Mustang?

    Looks like I was seeing it the wrong way...yep, heat extractor.
  14. Gen 4 Coyote 5.0L V8 Specs & Photos (S650 Mustang)

    yeah..but doesn't it face forward...meaning it's pushing air INTO the engine bay? If it was facing the other way, I get that... Looks like I was seeing it the wrong way...yep, heat extractor.
  15. Gen 4 Coyote 5.0L V8 Specs & Photos (S650 Mustang)

    Okay, going to ask the elephant in the room question. When I first saw the louvers in the hood, I was under the assumption that it was trying to do a mild "ram air" type of situation, where that cold air was going to be going into the engine. Now that I have seen the setup, all those louvers...
  16. Do you like the new rear lights on S650 Mustang?

    It's definitely a nod to the Mach E (they have a similar light bar). I know that will immediately piss a number of people off, but I see where they got their inspiration from. That said, I like the tail lights, and I actually (mostly) like the front. The one thing I am not 100 percent sold on...
  17. The new dashboard is a big mistake IMO

    One of the biggest problems automakers had with getting computer chips is that they were all REALLY old designs that were not kept up to date or made modern. They mostly used old outdated processes for manufacturing. Moving to a more modern/single chip design will provide a huge benefit to the...
  18. The new dashboard is a big mistake IMO

    I drove a Mach E GT this weekend. If you give it a fair shake, I bet most would find that it isn't a bad vehicle...for a crossover. It had decent pickup (really good pickup for a SUV) and went around the corner as fast as I would want to take it with a salesperson in the car and in an...
  19. The new dashboard is a big mistake IMO

    umm, not sure where you get the "replace every year" I own an iPhone. I tend to replace mine every 5-6 years. I tend to replace my car every 10-12 years, and probably for the same reason. After a while, things start breaking or (in case of a computer) it can no longer do the job I require of...
  20. The new dashboard is a big mistake IMO

    I am going to be honest here...What I see is a bunch of old guys sitting around complaining about "it used to be better in our day" The fact of the matter is, it's different. I suspect it's also lighter overall - weight being something mustang owners have been complaining online about...
