I generally just try to change the oil frequently and keep it at that. I have no idea if any additives are useful or helpful. I did own a 1990 F150 years ago with a 302 that I added Slick 50 to. At one point in its life it developed a really bad oil pan gasket leak. That was an expensive...

Of course all the wind tunnel development was done with the initial design work possibly using clay models or 3D printed prototypes rather than a finished, painted car. It's fascinating how the wind tunnel is designed as well to try to prevent the air from swirling but instead get it flowing...

The Camaro is ok, but I by far prefer the Coyote engine over the engine in the Camaro. I realize the 7G Mustang has direct injection, but at least Ford didn't cheap out and do direct injection only. I'd like a little longevity, please. And then there's cylinder deactivation - great...

More than that. No way you are getting 0% financing with the current garbage economy.

I was very seriously cross shopping Corvettes a few years ago. But then I figured out that I don't really fit in one with a helmet on. And I'm not interested in an automatic transmission anyway. Plus, I wanted a Corvette for the light weight, and after the C5 the Corvette gained a lot of...

I typed something in here, but I just couldn't post it. Best of luck to all of you.

I'm looking forward to hopefully seeing some of these colors in person. As the prices have skyrocketed there are very few Mustangs around here any more. There are a couple Mach 1s in my neighborhood, but I almost never see one during my commute to and from work.

The area below the license plate doesn't really grab my attention in either car. I think the S550 tail lights/rear design is very beautiful and the S650 looks great as well. I like the body color rear area. I'm glad Ford made a somewhat dramatic change to the rear of the car. The S650...

Wouldn't it have been the 3 speed + OD SROD manual trans back then? I know the first few years of Fox body still had 4 speeds. I had an '83 GT that came with a 4 speed and I swapped it over to a T5.

The Coyote 5.0 came out in 2011. 12 years is a good long time to keep the same engine with only smaller tweaks. It's not like Ford just came out with a new, bigger engine 3 or 4 years ago. It's been a long long time. If you want an efficient and clean car, the Mustang should not be for you...

The Porsche Cayman's engine size has continued to increase in displacement and HP recently. Yes they aren't large engines, but it's fine because the car itself is small and light. It's nice that Porsche is dropping the larger engines into that car. And Dodge hasn't increased the sizes of...

If you are happy with Ford adding 20 HP on a car that costs so much, sure go ahead and pick one up. I'm underwhelmed by these 20 hp changes in a small CI engine when it would be easy to add 75-150 HP by just increasing the engine size a little. It doesn't take much of a size change to...

Just having a 5.4 engine would be a small step in the right direction. IMO the S650 Mustang GT should have gotten a 5.4. The 5.0 is tired (has been for years). GM and Dodge build decent sized engines, I'm not sure why Ford can't. Really they should be building 6+ liters by now, but after...

I think it's a personal thing. If you have lots of extra money and really want a new car, then why not? Especially if you love Fords and dislike the competitors for various reasons. At the price of the DH and what I currently understand about the performance specs I've decided it's not for...

My problem with the Mustang seats is the bolsters are slightly too narrow for me. Camaro and Challenger are better in that regard if you get the normal seats. But most people probably won't have that problem because they are smaller in size than I am. I sit on top of the Recaro bolsters and...

I owned a 944 and I loved it. I think the 928 is very cool but I have never driven or ridden in one. My assumption is they are a little bigger, softer and more luxurious than I would prefer. It's interesting to hear from someone who knows better that the ride was firm. That makes the car...

I don't like AWD, so you must not have paid that much attention to my overly frequent posts. I have looked at the TT in the past. I do like small cars and I thought it might be a good winter car. The older TT I drove in the past didn't seem that great. After driving it I lost interest in the...

I think they were smart to avoid making a $100K, 4,500+ lb Mustang with a 4 cylinder hybrid system, automatic transmission only and all wheel drive. And even though the DH/Shelby/Boss halo car would have probably still had a V8, being so heavy and automatic only a lot of people wouldn't have...

I think the new car looks better in the front than S550. The tail looks good, but not as beautiful as the S550. In general I think the restyle could generate some sales. If other parts of the car fit what I wanted, I would definitely buy the S650 over an S550 based on exterior styling alone...

I like the idea of doing things more like Dodge quite a bit. I would prefer a smaller Mustang, but this is something that could get Ford lots of sales with less time spent re-engineering the car. Make packages with 6.2 or 6.4 liter or whatever engine size it is that Dodge has been doing that...
