I’ve got about 10k miles on my GT convertible and primarily with the top down. I wanted the covers when I bought my car, but it didn’t include them. I figured I’d go a couple thousand miles and see if I still cared. I don’t at all. They’re completely unnecessary, they can damage the top, and...

Yep. The active exhaust is night and day better than the base exhaust. The AE sounds as good as a Mustang can before it becomes obnoxious to most people. There are cars that sound better, but not many.

They had a couple 60th on the lot when I bought mine. I prefer the look of the GT/CS to the 60th.

I have it the opposite. I have quiet set to the star button. It’s the only reliably way I have found to immediately turn off track mode regardless of what the screen is trying to do. It also lets me set it to quiet mode immediately after start up.

Sport mode is pretty similar to normal, it just opens up a little bit earlier across the power band and throttle application. Track mode leaves the valve fully open at all times. I love track mode. But I basically use either track or quiet at this point. I never use sport and almost never use...

Absolutely! 6 hp is everything when you have 100 hp to start with. You’d need to measure in hundredths of a second to be sure anything changed at all when you already had 480 hp.

The active exhaust that comes stock is more than loud enough. After a full year with it, I can not imagine wanting a louder exhaust. It gets the job done and sounds incredible. Its already a nuisance as it is. Making it louder would be obscene for a road car. Now if it was only for the...

I test drove a dozen Mustangs before I bought my 24. For overall package the active exhaust is the only way to go. For normal driving I keep the exhuast in track mode because it sounds great. But for freeway driving I put it in quiet to eliminate the drone and excess noise. I also use quiet for...

Interesting. It looks like skoda only puts it on their sporty trims, but they do have it and it does work by holding the brake and then gas together. But the regular ones dont get it, even with the DSG.

My GTI with the DSG had the same thing. It was a simple no-nonsense launch control and it worked great!

Yeah my last car was a model 3 performance. It is basically impossible to make a Mustang GT launch as hard as that car did. But launch speed has nothing to do with why I bought my car. I wanted something that would be fun to drive at any speed and not a one-trick pony.

I used to wear vivo barefoot shoes back when they still used Kevlar for the soles. Those were the best driving shoes I’ve ever owned. Vans have practically rock hard soles and I’ve never found them to be good for pedal feel.

I would put money on this being the cause. I have a 6 speed 2024 and the car doesn’t release the autohold brake well. Bill start assist hasn’t been a huge problem, but the auto hold that engages the brakes every time you stop makes the “auto throttle” really struggle. The fix is to either give...

I got the mini spare with my GT and it was only about $400. I think currently they’re about $650 or so. That said the last thing I’d want to do is haul around a spare tire designed for a brake system my car doesn’t have. That is unless it can fit in the spare tire compartment under the trunk. If...

I insisted on the 401 package so i coudl set the memory position to cover when my kids are in the back seat. Wish both sides had the memory setting.

Daily. It’s why I bought the convertible. It has about an extra inch of headroom when closed and it’s a non issue when the top is down. My kids love it though I wouldn’t put anyone with particularly long legs back there.

Molto bene! That worked and I can do that until I have it fixed properly.

My last car was a 22 Model 3 Performance. Autopilot would actually center in the lane and by the time I sold the car it was a really solid system. my 24 GT has lane assist but it seems to mostly wait until I touch a line then hugs the damned line and makes recentering way harder than it should...

My only issue after a year with mine is that the passenger side quarter window now doesn’t close all the way. I have a service appointment to get it fixed next week. Other than that, its been an entirely great experience.

On one hand 26 mpg is way better than the 16.2 I’ve overaged over the last 9k miles. On the other, that sounds like pure freeway driving which isn’t nearly as fun as twisty roads with constant elevation changes. It’s been a great 9k miles for sure.
