  1. The Battle for Control of the Dashboard

    I hope they have wine bars and free lunches and don't expect them to work or 'nuthin'. If you have those companies on your resume, it gets thrown away immediately if I have anything to say about it. They did it to themselves. I hope they enjoy pushing a mop and broom.
  2. Red S650 Mustang Ecoboost pics from Ford Authority

    burnt red / fire as a deviation from the fire-engine red is nice. I think.
  3. First Time Driving Cars Fast On A Track

    look further ahead. 2 eggs, a bit of toast and water. not coffee or orange juice. true-story. I about puked into my oxygen mask after 15 minutes of doing light acrobatics (first time flying a plane, rolls, hammerhead, upside down etc) when we were flying level and steady on final approach in...
  4. 2024 Mustang GT "Looks Much Better In Person!" (Walkaround Video @ LA Auto Show)

    ahh, so Ford has chosen to apply Intel's tick-tock strategy. :)
  5. Would You Consider a Smaller Foxbody Inspired Mustang?

    and MINISCULE actual production numbers compared to just one of the 6 variations the C2 platform supports.
  6. S650 - The designers speak

    What is this 'hope' nonsense? As Master Yoda teaches: Do, or do not. There is no Try Hoping.
  7. S650 - The designers speak

    It has nothing to do with "doesn't look like my S550". It doesn't look good period. Why is my opinion automatically irrelevant because I happen to own an S550? What if I only owned motorcycles, an Audi S5 (last of the v8+6mt) and Mazda Protege 5 or Kia Stinger? Would my opinion then count? I'm...
  8. S650 - The designers speak

    I don't buy crap just because the fan-boys are gooogly-eyed and drunk on Ford Marketing cool-aid. Maybe you didn't notice my previous statement about not being caught dead in a Mustang prior to S550? I DESPISE all earlier Mustangs except pre-'71. And furthermore I have enough starch to own any...
  9. S650 - The designers speak

    I hate it when people do a 1-liner 'metoo' post but I'm gonna break my rule and be guilty of the same. It really does look like 4 different groups were given a quadrant and then they laid the tracing papers on top and wiggled things around to sorta line up. I agree It's a complete mishmash of...
  10. Hood vent is definitely from Chevy

    doubtful. They're just Honda vents. aka fake - just a styling exercise. :)
  11. Would You Consider a Smaller Foxbody Inspired Mustang?

    nifty site https://www.powertoweight.com/power-to-weight-ratios-by-engine-type/ the Maverick is 3600lbs so hardly much of a savings despite it's size.
  12. Would You Consider a Smaller Foxbody Inspired Mustang?

    the zephyr/maverick could be a RWD platform base I should think. It's a damn shame Ford shot their wad naming a mini-truck Maverick. When they could have used the nameplate for the 'mini' Mustang. Hell, slap that body on the C2 and I'd buy it even if it was only FWD.
  13. The Dark Horse's Pirelli P-Zero Trofeo RS tires look to be the first of their kind

    except that Porsche has their own Cup2 formulation in the recent past so it stands to reason the Porsche version of the Trofeo is likely much different than the version Ford accepted. If for no other reason the cord wrap will be very different since Porsche has "no" weight in the nose and super...
  14. Would You Consider a Smaller Foxbody Inspired Mustang?

    the miata/brz are unfortunately too small for Lumberus Americanus. it's sized for the Japanese male. The Ecosport/bronco-sport/maverick in rear-drive could work. They could call it the Mustang Fiesta. :) or Fiero. or Mustang ST or Mustang FiST. Hell, brand names mean nothing so let's just wield...
  15. S650 - The designers speak

    well, "your love for S650" or at least your faith that the masses will bow the knee seems to be YOUR gospel. :) Only 12 more months to go before we see sales figures.
  16. S650 - The designers speak

    you can thank the M6G admins for the cross-pollination. And secretly I'm hoping Ford Mustang Design finds religion and repents.
  17. S650 - The designers speak

    that has nothing to do with it. Bad design is bad design. :) Emotional and actual investment is 110% irrelevant. I've bought now 1 MY'17 mustang, and 4 MY18+ Mustangs in 4 years. If for some reason my S550 get killed, I ain't buying the S650 ever. Even if you give me one, I'd turn right around...
  18. S650 - The designers speak

    the state of the global economy will guarantee it sells like dog poop. Regardless of it's "merits". I estimate it'll sell at HALF the average run-rate of the 18+ series. Reversion to the Mean is a mean be'atch.
  19. S650 - The designers speak

    and that was plain as the nose on their face. So exactly WHO did they supposedly canvass? And about that 'driver-focused' line - I spent an hour in a C8. What an ANNOYING as hell interior. I guess if you're a "gurl" and your focus is on your phone and your nails instead of the ride, then you...
  20. For those upset with the new design… at least it doesn't look like new BMW M2

    I see designers who ran out of computer time after they got done doing the side doors and were like, we'll just use a butter knife for the bulbous rear. Front and back don't remotely go together.
