Because your Mach 1 also has said Gen 3 Coyote. FYI that all gens of the coyote tick, Ford has already said it’s a normal operating characteristic of the motor.

Is what Bill said true about the first Dark Horses being optioned by Ford and not the customers? Does that mean the first deliveries are all for dealer stock or the first custom orders won’t be truly custom?

That’s what I heard. I also heard that the first Dark Horse cars built will be optioned by Ford, NOT the customer.

Best quote in there. “THE CUSTOMERS WILL DECIDE”. As it should be.

There’s plenty of Mach 1/GT350/GT500 folks that daily their cars. It’s really a matter of personal preference. Personally, I buy cars to drive them so if I bought a GT350 or a GT500 you bet I’d drive them frequently or even daily. A 500 would struggle in the snow even with proper tires but a...

They want your business, they just want ALL of it now including aftermarket. Sucks for those guys that built their business around customization for enthusiasts.

I would agree that mild bolt ons will be a thing of the past as it relates to the s650 and Ford wants it that way. They’ll have setups with Roush, Saleen and Shelby (and I’m sure FP will have some kits as well) and Ford will get a piece of all those sales. So anyone looking for power adders...

Yeah I’d heard different thoughts on timing. Some people thought they’d wait and release it for the 60th anniversary and some thought early release in ‘23. I initially thought they’d wait for the 60th but after they announced the date of the unveiling I changed course. There’s no way they...

I would say that if anyone wants the last MY of the s550, don’t wait because all indications are it will be a short run. From what I saw last night, they are targeting first deliveries of the s650 for summer 2023.

Yeah once the calendar flips to a new year they can’t call anything produced after that the prior year. That’s mostly why manufacturers start producing the next model year in fall the prior year (there’s probably some sales and logistics reasons too).

I stand corrected on the S. The way they were talking at the reveal last night made it sound like the S was going to be street legal and only the R was not. Makes more sense that both would not be street legal though.

That’s what I got as well. And the R is SCCA/NASA ready right off the delivery truck.

I thought I saw MT82 but maybe? Either way, the GT does not get that Tremec from everything I’ve read.

GT keeps the MT82. Dark Horse gets the Tremec

Good question, I’ll ask him next time I see him. He drives it around town most of the year too. Only time I haven’t seen it is right after it snows. Once the roads are cleared he takes it out though.

F Type R in British Racing Green is an absolutely gorgeous car. A guy in my subdivision has one all blacked out and it’s a thing of beauty. Sounds great too. BUT, it will break and it’s costly when it does.

I think the some of the wheel and brake customization is long overdue. And the Dark Horse S & R as track-ready options is good too. I don’t know, maybe it is the same amount of options as there are currently but it feels to me like they’re throwing some new options out there for the last hurrah.

You hit the nail on the head for me. The rest of car I’m good with but that dash is a nightmare. I’ll stick with my 2022 until they improve that dash
