The old D2C platform used by the Mustang is completely unsuitable for an EV. Far more likely is they will use the new 'small EV' platform already in development for an EV Mustang and leave the ICE version to run on with the D2C with possibly one more facelift. Why Ford’s Small Electric Vehicle...

The irony of complaining about greed in a capitalist country!

When is your GTD arriving? :crackup:

Well if you are happy to ignore Ford Blue officially lodged figures then crack on and make up whatever you like! If Ford were making what you suggest they would be doing better than Porsche and ALL other car makers except Ferrari. Is that really likely?

It was 15 years ago! Things have moved on a lot since then.

I know. I was pointing out that a global company makes products for a global market not just the US!

So this one? At $11.5k 5.0L GEN 4 MUSTANG CRATE ENGINE W/ FLYWHEEL| Part Details for M-6007-M50D | Ford Performance Parts

I keep saying Ford is a global company but it doesn't seem to sink in for some people! :wink: In fact there are very few car companies that are not global now.

Re 3. - it has always surprised me that some Americans call the Mustang a 'sports' car when it even has GT in the name!

Globally 4 door cars are far from dead. Hence why Ford sell the Mondeo / Fusion in China and the Middle East. German market is still very strong for 4 door / estate cars hence BMW/Merc/Audi offerings

Gen 4 is more expensive as I suggested - actually $15k 5.0L GEN 4 ALUMINATOR NA CRATE ENGINE| Part Details for M-6007-A50NAD | Ford Performance Parts

But since then lots of us have grown up :giggle:

It certainly can. Here is an example of what a 2030 Mustang could be, as in not all EV's are dull SUV's. MG Cyberster | UK’s First All-Electric Roadster | MG

It isn't actually pure Lithium in the battery! It is a Lithium compound! Chemistry folks - go and look it up! And your comment about recycling is just plain wrong! At least do some basic research before spouting misinformation! How Are EV Batteries (Actually) Recycled? - Union of Concerned...

Interesting figures. I got £32.5k for my 2019GT with 30k miles against a new S650GT for just under £60k. So my old car cost be £48k-£32.5k (£16k) in depreciation over 6 years and it cost £27.5k to change to the new one. Obviously Mustangs here are rare and hold their value very well.

2025 will be better than 2024 as Ford didn't make any Mustangs at all for many weeks because of constraints on supply.

I did post the engine prices yesterday ($3k for the Ecoboost and $14k for the V8) There is your answer!

That must be why they sell so many Ecoboosts, and have even dropped it here in Europe!

You just can't be wrong can you :giggle: I expect you still can't get a GTD and are sore about it :wink:

You did read the article? In Ford's defense, the current Mustang's price is in line with those from 30 years ago, accounting for inflation. A 1995 Mustang GT coupe with standard equipment started around $21,500. That equals approximately $46,000 today, a bit less than the 2025 Mustang GT's...
