nobody gives a **** how fast a car is in a drag race.
The 6MT could take 20 seconds to run the quarter mile and I would NEVER choose anything but stick. I won't even buy a hellcat without stick, nor a ZL1 or any of the Blackwings. Or an M4 unless it's stick. I bought the S5 because it was the...
currently: '19 GT/PP1 and '23 EB Coastal
since 2018: '17 V6, '19 EB/PP, '21 EB
I've driven: '19 GT/PP1+MR before and after IRS/chassis fixes, '17 GT, '20 GT, 22 Mach1 A10, several GT350 and GT350R
all above except the Mach1 were 6MT
Test driven a variety of years' EB/GT A10 to (re)confirm the...
save the money because the Ford rollbars/dampers are useless.
Put the braces on separate, stop-the-hop kit and IRS fixes, a BMR/Eibach front bar, FP Track damper set or Bilstein, set of camber plates (you want handling, you REQ those), and BMR SP083 front spring set and the PP1 rear lateral...
10 speed from GM is much better tuned than from Ford, no question. But you buy the 1LE for the 6-speed. Automatics... the nerve of some people. /SMH
And you couldn't GIVE me a A10 Mustang, that trans tuning is such a pile of shit it's beyond disgusting.
Go to a CarMax and borrow one for an hour. You may change your mind. Mash the pedal yes it goes like stink but was otherwise boring to drive and have to constantly battle the computer that thinks lugging the v8 is how to drive. Give me my ss/1le Camaro any day.
The challenger needs a fair bit...
Not sure why you're not looking at a Blackwing (no NA v8 being the problem, I guess. I agree, the 5V should have come NA or Supercharged). The GT you selected is several steps backwards from your current caddy. You really need to buy the Dark Horse trim to get a car on par or better than the...
amazing handling suspension is not harsh. If it is, the purveyor of said suspension SUCKS at their job.
There are MANY on M6G that credibly assert PP1 suspension is complete crap. If you don't know that PP1 suspension is crap, you clearly are not competent to evaluate suspension. I have had...
Rubbish.
The pp suspension if anything like s550 is garbage. You want the Ford performance Race package or Steeda or Bilstein dampers for something half way decent that's also small coin.
Remember people this is not in the slightest a "new" car it's just the s550 with different sheet metal. We...
Do you people not look? Levittown has a kit, so does Steeda. You can get the parts from Rockauto and barely used pairings from ebay thanks to the Shelby Store.
You can get a square set of summer tires for 1000 to 1400.
All useless shit for street driving and trivially sourced for FAR less from Ford parts or vastly better parts from 3rd party. The only thing that is tough to get is the torsen.
toss the performance pack and get the Steeda H-pipe for your stock exhaust (200 vs 1200). If you just gotta have the 6-pot brakes for some reason you can get them for less than $1200. The PP is a HORRIBLE deal ever since 2020.
Another own goal FAIL that GM isn't so stupid as to deny it's customers. It's like @Ford Motor Company doesn't bother to look around at it's immediate competition and just assumes they are untouchable.
Hey op, you unknowingly did the very next thing - start a thread that will span 40 pages before the first car hits a dealer lot. 😀
No offense to the high quality posters above.
The press is paid to loudly shill for Ford. They don't dare tell the truth.
The unreal engine is 20 years old. But doesn't mean the wrapper software isn't chock full of bugs. The app was brought up because even though a high school dropout could write better code and yet with all it's millions...
There will probably be no less than 3500 built. Assuming there is demand for that many. If there are no parts or customer shortages we could see 5000 or a LOT more in the follow-on years. I suspect however that about 5000/yr will be the limit simply because there are no customers beyond that...
fix bugs. let alone try to improve it without breaking things. The FordPass app is incredibly unstable and crashprone. Maybe (likely) it's outsourced but what does it tell you that they haven't fired that dev team with prejudice? What does it tell you that they even QC and approved it for...
git yourself an X-plan code thru your employer or MCA. Or look for existing plan member. There's a few of us around these parts.
I didn't see a ADM Hall of Shame thread so I'll just mention that Ted Britt of Fairfax is currently (3/30) attempting to gather unto itself a nice $20,000 per DH...
