Let’s just say … once broken in… put it in drag mode.. go from about a 10mph roll the first time so it will catch first gear…
I will be seriously surprised if you don’t start literally laughing the first time you experience the way the A10 shifts in drag mode at full throttle…
Driving around...
The 10 speed auto really is an awesome transmission .....
Have you guys used drag mode yet? Its pretty cool
I had an A10 PP1 S550 for a few years- I really really liked the A10 (and Im a manual guy as well)
One of my buddies added exhaust- forgot which one- but it definitely changed the experience of the car...what is amazing to me about the C8 is how incredibly well it gets out of the hole on the street....
I also like the interior of the C8 alot- I know people complain about the row of buttons-...
Ive driven a few C8s and I thought they were too quiet even with the performance exhaust option- they need some serious exhaust work
GMs small block is a good motor but lacks personality ....
I think it was a little soft as well..... definitely fast- but less of a connected feeling when...
Not sure they will insure a GT- but those with Dark Horses might want to check out Haggerty or similar -
Car has to be garaged- and you have to have a second car- but you can do a stated value policy which makes it really nice should something happen
I have a stated value on my car for 95K -...
I’ve seen S550 PP1 cars in the 11 100% stock
I’ve driven a few C8s and I’m sorry but they are faster than a stock GT A10 car …
should add I previously owned a 19 PP1 A10
OP is obviously a troll …
I would have more fun with my responses but I don’t want to get banned by a moderator…
Do we get a free pass on breaking forum rules if responding to a troll?
Faster doesn’t always equal better
otherwise we would all be driving Teslas
It’s amazing because when I was younger I only cared about which car was faster in a straight line …
but even before Teslas … I owned a few S2000s in addition to my Mustangs and … I mean definitely not fast but such...
The s650 is total pile of junk and most horrible car ever built in the history of cars #historychannel
ford needs to put on the Red Bull RB19 chassis #gokart …….then add a top fuel motor #moretorque ……then lower the weight by 3000 pounds #elephant
then when challenger guy buy he can ask Ford...
I love that in one thread....
Shelby?? get out of here boomer!! Dark Horse for life!!
Now in another.....
Boss 429?? YES LFG!!!!
You all S650 people are confusing me.....or it could just be that Im getting old and confused more easily lol
Is someone with a Challenger or Charger REALLY complaining about the age of the chassis in the S550/S650?? I mean doesnt your chassis go back to like the 80s or something??
And your complaining about the Coyote being a 14 year old engine design?? - and you have a pushrod motor??
The Coyote...
chassis development has come a long way. I daily drove a 19 GTPP1 A10 - and its not scary if you know what I mean- I mean if you hit a slick spot it will step out on you if you are flooring it off the line - but for the most part it is useable power
You hit the nail on the head on asking why no carbon fiber wheels for these tests....
I can attest to the carbon fiber wheels making a difference....
The GT350R even dynos higher than the GT350 due to the wheels .....
lol I get you there … I used to be a classic car guy and compared to those… the s650 is a Rolls Royce and Ferrari combined lol
the last 2 I owned … 67 Shelby GT500 and 56 Ford with a built 428 CJ
