Pray that things changed up a LOT since the S550 GT. Terrible steering characteristics outside of the M1/GT350/GT500

this is why every engine has stagnated in size or downsized in the past decade find a german OEM that has NOT downsized their performance engine sizes in the last 15 years barring their very-most limited volume halo models. I source them specifically because they used to be the home of...

Pending test drive and ADM if I buy, don’t know if any dealer will be willingly offering GT PP and DH test drives back to back but I’m only 90% bought in on paper and price. Gonna have to be blown away to buy in before they do their typical-Ford 1-2 year immediate tweaks and something tells me...

Even though I disagree with a good amount of what you say I always enjoy reading your posts lmao

It’s the same formula that applies to everything else with fast-spooling twin-turbo/twin scroll setups, close-geared quick-shifting auto transmissions, and AWD: create an extremely aggressive launch control program controlled by an ECU that can fine-tune torque delivery and rocket from a dig at...

Challenging you to faithfully recreate the Pagani Huayra’s cluster without crying (impossible) On a serious note, I wish that OEMs would take way more creative liberty designing functional, forward-looking tachs. Even the Reventon’s, for as corny as it is, would make acceleration runs so much...

Dude definitely giving me “can’t believe I just paid $5k over MSRP for this shit” vibes

Please don't encourage these practices. Trust your gut.

It's necessary for advancement of driverless systems. Probably will be universal in the next 10 years.

:rolleyes:

Dude thinks over the air updates = SkyNet or some shit

Would be amazing... but it sounds almost too good to be true. Question is, let's say it's around $2500 off at the end of the day like we think. What makes more sense if you want a loaded Mustang with a V8, manual, and all of the fun stuff like Mag ride, active exhaust, and Recaros (and didn't...

If that X-Plan pricing is even remotely correct then it makes a loaded GT actually logical again I don’t remember getting that big of a discount when I bought my loaded 15 GT PP though

Offering a physical set of dash instruments and gauge clusters as an alternative to an interior that's been developed entirely around a touch interface would be nightmarishly expensive, I would imagine. Have you ever seen someone else do that in the industry? That probably gives you a clear...

Totally different climate with different economic factors and precedents to follow. The S550 was a picture-perfect execution of factors both stemming from product, timing, and markets; there aren’t comparable opportunities available to improve upon, but the formula will still work just as well...

I just realized I’m like a halfway hypocrite since I bought a Civic Si back in December and already stuck a Ktuner and TSP flash on the thing… I just know if SHTF I can comfortably afford the bill.

To each their own. Sure, everything’s overbuilt but the idea of having a one-off issue due to a manufacturing defect and then not being able to claim repair under warranty gives me the sweats I feel like 50% of the why behind buying new is to have the latest and greatest, and the other 50% is...

Was referencing the idea of an E85 tune. I think it’s a safe assumption that approved vendors won’t affect warranty integrity

I’m legit surprised to see so many people ready to nuke their warranty for an extra 50-75hp on these things Am I the only one who’s stomach gets in a knot about the idea of buying a brand new car and kissing a 5 year/60,000 powertrain warranty goodbye? I’d rather have peace of mind and treat...
