Prob adds like 100 HP on its own.

Agreed, area 51, which let's face it, is basically what vapour blue is, looks bloody incredible when there's overcast. Pics do not do the color justice. Looks like they added a metallic blue flake, so this color should really pop in person.

But the design itself is gorgeous. I agree, the issue is the stripes are too complex.

Old pic from a EV presentation about a year ago.

That looks fantastic.

Exactly, we can hope with ford going out of their way to test multiple c8s that something is planned. But I don't want to get my hopes up. Even if they did release something, like you mentioned, gm fanboys would try to turn it into something negative.

Except good design is often seen as design which takes chances while still be attractive. For that reason, good design is almost always divisive out of the gate. Using the Roma as an example, I and several others loved it from day 1, but I can vividly recall people hating on features like the...

True, I literally can't tell most generations of 911 made in the last 15 years apart aside from a few small details. The s650 might bear some small resemblance to the s550, but you can still tell the two apart quite easily. Same can't be said from most other evolutionary designs like Jeep...

Wow, absolutely heartbreaking to learn about Ken's death today. He was an absolute legend than inspired many of us car enthusiasts from around the world. I hope his family is able to find closure during these trying times. Rest well my friend.

Nothing on 90s cars was defined, not the overall shape, not the character lines, and not the surfacing. It all felt half assed, like it just came out of the wind tunnel looking that way. The difference is modern designs like the s650 still have sharply designed profiles, and well placed...

Well if Ford made a mid engine mustang, which seems possible, people would still complain. They would say it's too similar to other designs and too expensive. It would just be trading one set of design characteristics for another. A short hood, mid engine proportions, a low nose/hood. All of...

Agreed, there are a ton of limitations with existing battery tech. Too heavy, takes too long to recharge, and goes through it's range too quickly. Solid state battery tech should address a lot of these issues, but that's still a few years out. The only reason I would buy a Tesla would be to...

All I want for Christmas is a well shot walk around, that doesn't have royalty free shitty music blowing my ear drums into a million pieces.

Agreed, the only similarities between the Camaro and the mustang cone as a product of them both being muscle cars, and by extension, having design characteristics attributed to sporty designs. Things like long hoods/short decks, blunt front ends, and flared fenders. Could ford remove all these...

Again, I agree with you in some respects. But my personal stance is if someone is passionate about something enough to know the lingo, that's pretty cool even if I'm not passionate about it. I'm not gonna judge them and be like, what a nerd lol. Look at sports for example. I couldn't care less...

DLO refers to the window opening as a whole. Not just the rear glass. To each their own, design is my jam, so I can't get enough of the lingo. But I get where you're coming from. With me, it's engineering speak that I can't stand. Take engines for instance, I can tolerate discussions on things...

Agreed, the closet thing we might get is the next gen thunderbird. According to Ford Authority (take that for what it's worth) ford is planning to make a new, more performance oriented Thunderbird. According to inside sources, one of the design proposals in the studio looks vaguely similar to...

Exactly, plus Ford made it extremely clear in their behind the scenes vids that the engine choice was dictated by areo. A v8 simply would not fit, not if you wanted those sexy and awesome buttresses anyway. Plus there's reliability, the 3.5 is a truck engine at it's core, meaning it's guaranteed...

Perhaps, but 600 hp isn't insane by modern standards. Assuming this car will be six figures, if it "only" had 400 hp, people would mock it. To many of these people, even 600 isn't enough, but it's a good balance to me. Seems like 500-600 hp is kinda the limit for a well balanced FR lightweight...

Looks really good, especially in that front 3/4s shot. Modern wheels on 60s cars just look great to me in many cases. But I wish someone would create a new design inspired by the cobra, rather than just using the same shell over and over.
