um… that’s why I said TWO DOOR sports coupe.

Congratulations! What a great feeling to finally have the dream car and be enjoying it day to day.

BOOM! Take it from someone who knows a thing or two about what the Mustang is and isn’t. /thread.

puckup refered to a truck. Some have more doors. It’s still a truck. cars didn’t even have doors at first (motorwagon Then more. Then things started to specialize. We had suv types, trucks, sedans, coupes, etc. Nobody calls an suv a truck. Nobody calls a sedan a coupe. you can twist and turn...

we know the history of Iacocca and the mustang. The point is the mustang is a two door sports coupe and not a 4 door sedan or anything else. Never has been. By the way, even the 1964.5 had v8 engines. Just because it offered a less powerful affordable entry level does detract from its sporty...

a jeep is a jeep. A truck is a truck. A coupe is not a sedan. There has never been a 4 door mustang, ford GT, Camaro, corvette, or viper. To my knowledge there has also never been a 4 door challenger. nor should there be. lambo and Porsche do it right. When lambo wanted to make an suv, they...

LOL

If it has four doors and is a sedan, it’s not the same car as a two door coupe. Simple stuff really.

even better to call it what it is - its own thing. no one is confused or upset and everyone is happy. If it fails, then it’s not a failure for Mustang. It’s its own thing. This is called a win-win snd that is generally considered “good business.” the only thing is you need a marketing team...

not really. It meant a truck, regardless of doors. Note that the Torino and el Camino were never co fused with trucks or given truck names despite having beds.

actually it is you who are trying to rewrite history. The fact is the mustang has been a two door sports coupe since inception. trying to pretend it’s done nebulous idea that can be morphed into anything at all is fantasyland. when anyone in the world since ever thinks of Ford Mustang, past...

instead, your arguing for a nonsensical naming scheme. The Porsche example was brought up to show how a smart comp ad my does it versus a company grasping at straws currently.

LOL A truck is a truck. A coupe is not a sedan.

Realty check: If it has four doors, it’s already not identical. A two door sports coupe is not a four door sedan. it’s not a complicated concept.

of course the mustang name bothers us. Bothers a great many people, when it’s not attached to an actual amustang. looking similar and performing similar is one thing and that’s fine - ford used to have the mustang while mercury, it’s sister brand had the capri - and that worked well. There was...

The 2025 zr1 is hinting at a 6:4xx run. GT2RS territory. meanwhile the GTD, a a much more expensive car, is merely targeting the GT3 times. hopefully the 800+ go number is VERY conservative.

Saw this a while ago. Didn’t like it then snd font like it now. RTR nostril lights? What the heck? And wheels don’t go with the car. now… where’s that new mustang they teased under to cover recently? This can’t be it because we saw the whole thing months ago.

negative. Of course, Ford holds the cards to take it whatever direction they want. But the nature of the car has been set in stone for a long time. The Mustang is what it is. Its handlers may try to fool us, but people know better. This is an experiment reflective a a culture that doesn’t...

The interesting part of this is that Ford said it was done with sedans in favor of SUVs. the only car they’d make would be a legendary sports coupe - the one and only Mustang. and… here comes a SEDAN… but bearing a name it doesn’t represent? It’s as bad as calling a truck or an SUV a...

economy of scale only works if you’re making/selling more of the exact same thing (I.e. coyote engines, a10 transmissions, shift knobs, body panels, frames, metal stamping, etc. But if you’re making an entirely different car - Mach e, Mach 4door, etc., there is no economy of scale to be had...
