They could but why invest in a smaller V8 if you already have a 3.5/3.6L engine?! The M177 engine (4.0L AMG engine) is pretty neat but if the F150 doesn't get it the Mustang doesn't get it either...
They might discontinue the coyote and replace it with a 4.0 turbo engine in the future but we...
Interesting questions and the most compelling answer to most of them is simply CD6. However, you told us that S650 will be built on the old platform with major improvements (I hope that doesnât sound judgmental, itâs not meant that way).
Letâs try a shot into the dark:
Derivatives could...
I respect your opinion but if I wanted a 6 cylinder turbo car I would by a M3/4. Whatâs the point of another 6 cylinder turbo car if one could have a NA V8 instead? Besides, your mentioned trim levels are way over the top. I prefer the Mustang as a recognizable car. If I see a Mustang I expect...
First off, it wasnât or isnât my purpose to offend anybody in this forum. English isnât my native language. Besides, I can't do multiquote or whatever you did in order to refer to statements. It helps readability a lot but the only way I know off is to type in [Q UO TE] and stuff by hard...
I bet that the S650 will have manual options. TheS650 isn't an all new Mustang "just" an evolution of the current gen. Why not keeping the manual if it sells well and has a market? S750 will be a different talk but that's roughly 8 years from now...
Ford doesn't have such a car. They have a...
360 camera
Head-Up (optional)
Tremec for the regular GT (optional)
Quad-exhaust
active valves /exhaust
new steering wheel (flattened, better materials and round drive mode buttons etc (AMG-style) and of couse optional to keep the base price low)
AWD (optional)
hard top and speedster option for...
Nice specs but at $100K you might as well consider buying a used 911 GT3... It's a Porsche, it revs up to 9000rpm and is the better track/race car...
I like the GT350 and the GT350R but at a hundred grad itâs just well overpriced. The 2016 GT350 did start at 49995$ and the R at 63495$. A 2020...
Unfortunately not. The only thing we have is a patent from 2017 or something and since then a lot of stuff has happened over at FORDâŠ
At this point itâs almost doubtful that there will be a hybrid V8. The Mustang itself doesnât really sell all that many units to justify high research costs...
These new spyshots from the Fusion/Mondeo successor look almost exactly like the EVOS... The front-end styling is almost identical to the EVOS and it's in line with the sculpture.
Besides, it has the same headlights and I assume the Mustang will get similar ones, which could end up quite nice...
I think in terms of marketing FORD is checking a lot of the right boxes wheather we like it or not.
Building a strong name pays off in the long run. The new Bronco Warthog will be renamed to Raptor. If you want to compete in the world market you need strong brands customers can recognize and...
Fit's the sculpute almost perfectly. Looks good but I also doubt that that would make production...
Besides, to me it looks more like a Lamborghini... Quite exotic and less like a muscle car. Can't wait any longer for the first S650 spyshot
Die Hoffnung stirbt zuletzt!
The first S650 will hit Europe in 2023 the earliest. With further delays the S650 might enter Europe as a â24 model and by then I doubt a V8 hybrid will be an option. Up until now FORD does not offer such an engine so the Mustang would have to carry all the...

Autoweek talked to Carl Widmann who's a Ford Performance chief program engineer. Widmann thinks that gas engines haven't met their day yet and that there are still a lot of people buying gas engines. He's referring...
If they knew they probably wouldn't tell ;)
I sincerely disagree. It is almost granted that there will be performance-variants of the S650 and my guess would be that Ford tries to build into the Mustang brand. Meaning there will be a GT350 around the launch and a GT500 down the road. There...
It's funny how a DCT is considered a "cheap" transmission here in Europe.
"Converter automatic" has been the go to trans for premium brands like BMW and Mercedes and rightfully so.
A DCT might be a bit faster but that will be overcome sooner rather than later. The ZF 8hp in my BMW is just...
I've also not just seen the headlamps but the whole car, facelift included. But I can't tell anyone how it looked like because of reasons :giggle:
sry but I couldn't resist :D
Does it affect a â23 model at all? If production starts in late â22 then there might be no need to delay the S650.
Ford could prioritize high margin S650 versions like most of the electric-car-companies do. Sell the âbestâ product first and release the lower margin products later on.
However, a...
If they don't come up with some lightweight improvements then I don't see a chance that the S650 will be lighter or even keep the current weight.
The S550 is a 60k$ car, at least in Europe, and it doesnât even have front parking sensors, head-up displays (especially cables are quite heavy if...
I agree with most of your proposals.
1. Improve the overall quality of the used materials
2. Next gen digital dash AND a proper Head-up display (optional)
3. High quality steering wheel like the black one amg uses (including the round buttons at the bottom that can startup the engine, switch...
