  1. Rumor: S650 Mustang 4-Door Sedan Will Debut in 2022 with 3 Engine Options

    I was thinking about how Mustang could become a subbrand (if it isn't already, technically speaking). We have Mustang and Mach-E... ...could the potential sedan be called Boss-E? :rockon::headbang:
  2. V8, V8 Hybrid, All Electric, which mustang will be the most desirable?

    I'd go with the V8 hybrid, but only if it answers these questions in the affirmative... 1. Does it get fuel economy that matches or exceeds the current EcoBoost? 2. Is the power/torque delivery lean more towards natural aspiration than turbocharged? (I don't know how supercharger power/torque...
  3. Stangmode from YouTube says S550 will be last Gen ICE GT500?!!!

    Two things keep me from liking the new Z more than I likely should. 1) The front grill (I feel like the lower rectangle section could've been closed off and it'd look less grill-happy), and 2) It's a 2-seater. It's still high on my "Cars to Consider in 2025" list (mainly because I still want to...
  4. Stangmode from YouTube says S550 will be last Gen ICE GT500?!!!

    I wouldn't mind this at all. If they stuck with the S550 for a little while longer though, do you think that would affect the theoretical "Mustang Sedan" from being produced/released? (still wondering if a Mustang with a Boxer-4, NA or turbocharged, would sound better than the EcoBoost, with or...
  5. S650 is out there somewhere, isn't she?

    If it ends up costing as much as a Taycan or even a Model S, shouldn't they just make it a Lincoln instead of going the "4-door Mustang" route? I'm fine with either honestly, but who knows if I'll be able to afford one or even a traditional Mustang coupe before 2035... Back to engine choices, I...
  6. Rumor: S650 Mustang 4-Door Sedan Will Debut in 2022 with 3 Engine Options

    If one of the derivatives does turn out to be a sedan, would it be named "Mustang [new name]" or just go by a new name altogether? Either way, I'd call the sedan variant either Falcon or Torino if they want to use older nameplates. Or if they give it a new name altogether, I'd go with...
  7. Get a Shelby NOW? or Wait for the S650 ? ? ? ?

    Tough to say. After seeing GT350s/GT500s on the road and in dealerships, I see my EcoBoost and still say to myself, "But I like my car better, even if those two surely drive better both on paper and pavement." Price and fuel economy aside, I just don't feel that same connection or draw towards...
  8. Predictions for S650 Shelby

    Everyone's thinking the potential hybrid V8 Mustang will be the top trim for the S650. I'm wishing it were the base trim instead. I love my EcoBoost, but if a V8 is irrevocably synonymous with the Mustang, I'd ideally structure the lineup like so: Mustang Hybrid: smaller displacement NA V8 (if...
  9. Predictions for S650 Shelby

    I'm admittedly still very much in the learning phase regarding the internals of cars. Would a hybrid setup give a naturally-aspirated engine more responsive torque at low RPMs, without the initial lag or sudden jolt of acceleration that turbos tend to have?
  10. What Should Come Standard Across All Mustangs Going Forward?

    Besides safety tech and a minimum 8" touchscreen/infotainment, at the moment I can't think of anything that isn't technically considered a luxury/option at this time. It probably doesn't help that I just woke up a short while ago, even after considering making this thread since last night. What...
  11. Rumor: S650 Mustang 4-Door Sedan Will Debut in 2022 with 3 Engine Options

    Interesting. I don't mind the synthesized sound myself. Just thought it was an odd pairing at first, enhancing a V6 with V8 sound. That said I'd be completely for it if they offered that as an active-exhaust-like option on a completely EV-ified traditional Mustang.
  12. Rumor: S650 Mustang 4-Door Sedan Will Debut in 2022 with 3 Engine Options

    I was just watching POV videos of the F150 Powerboost, trying to make sense of how they synthesized V8 sounds into the cabin. Do you think if the Mustang does end up getting that engine instead of its own V8-hybrid... 1. They'll do that piped-in sound? If yes, 2. Do you think they'll provide...
  13. Report: Next gen S650 Mustang will have full 8 year life cycle

    Main thing I'm looking forward to with the S650 program is whether those rumors of AWD, hybrid powertrain, and/or the potential return of a V6 engine option are real or not. Oh, and perhaps most important, if the V8 survives for the S650 and possibly onward or not (through hybridization or...
  14. Report: S650 Mustang To Use Unique Platform with CD6 Architectural Bits

    I'm definitely not an engine expert. But considering how far four-cylinder engines have come as far as fuel efficiency goes, why haven't we seen the same for six- or eight- cylinder engines (NA or turbo)? Does it just come down to emissions output or is there more to it than I think there is to it?
  15. Report: S650 Mustang To Use Unique Platform with CD6 Architectural Bits

    How'd I miss this when it was originally posted? Assuming any of this is legit, I've got a lot to think about... "GT350/GT500...105" wheelbase." I'm guessing these models would be your truly track-ready Mustangs if they're going to make them exclusively as 2-seaters? "Base Mustang, EB, GT, and...
  16. Mustang S650 Design Previewed by ‘Progressive Energy In Strength’ Sculpture

    I'm assuming this render is from the same Ace from this forum? I like it, even though this take looks more like an evolution than a whole new take on the Mustang. That said, I wouldn't mind if the S650 looked like this, even if it doesn't look like it takes any cues from the sculpture previewed...
  17. Report: Next gen S650 Mustang will have full 8 year life cycle

    I guess if we're being technical, the 5.0 would be considered the gateway to the GT350 and GT500...or the Mach 1 and GT500 starting with the 2021 models. But I was thinking more of a V8-engined vehicle that serves as the gateway to the GT. Although, now thinking about it, maybe having two V8...
  18. Report: Next gen S650 Mustang will have full 8 year life cycle

    Even if the S650 only winds up with the I-4's and V8's again, it got me thinking. With all the advancements made with optimizing fuel economy, why hasn't anyone tried going back to making a lower powered V8 and promoting that as the entry-level "gatekeeper" to the full-muscle variants of these...
  19. Report: Next gen S650 Mustang will have full 8 year life cycle

    I thought I read (here, I think...and potentially also as speculation) that the S650 was going to ride on a heavily revised version of whatever the S550 is on right now, and that the CD6 would be for what comes after the S650. As for the potential powertrain choices...maybe the V6 option is...
