  1. Mustang EV Coupe Concept Thread

    Actually, not too early. This month I received a follow-up purchase survey from Ford. The initial survey was about QC, styling, personality, etc. This second survey focused (pun) almost exclusively on why I picked the Mustang, asked of other specific models, if I considered those, and, under...
  2. Black Accent vs Standard Headlights

    $1500. I'd like to see more details. If the headlights do something other than look nice (like, they are a significant, superior light), or the package changes several items which greatly compliment the car, maybe. Otherwise, I think I'd just add black badging later.
  3. Official YELLOW SPLASH Mustang S650 Thread

    A beautiful color; I'd like to see w/black badges and stripes (also black), either rocker panel or over the top.
  4. Thoughts on the Dark Horse Name

    “A dark horse is a previously lesser-known person or thing that emerges to prominence in a situation, especially in a competition involving multiple rivals, …” “a candidate or competitor about whom little is known but who unexpectedly wins or succeeds.” When I think back to all the Mustang...
  5. Price protection

    During the MY22 increases, Ford, in the press release announcing the increase/s, would state existing orders had Price Protection. But you're correct, while Ford might offer it, the dealer has to participate. Invoice and below-invoice deals carry the most risk. A handful of dealers which had...
  6. Price protection

    In each mid-MY increase throughout '22, Ford did two things: 1. Advertised the increase 30-60 days ahead of time, so orders could be placed prior. 2. Offered Price Protection to existing orders. Price Protection is for the price of the car. Destination fees also increased in 2022, with us...
  7. S650 - The designers speak

    Completing a Ford Purchase Survey this AM, some insight on topics covered... Throughout the survey, it was clearly identified I'd purchased a Mustang. Questions consistently asked how I'd compared the Mustang to the following, before making the purchase decision: - Subaru WRX - Mini Cooper E -...
  8. Dark Horse carbon fiber wheel info & predictions

    Given the option, I would not want them painted. If paying for them, I'd want people to know they are CF. :sunglasses:
  9. Shadow Black Dark Horse and Grabber Blue Mustang GT S650 spotted at Flat Rock Assembly Plant

    I'm familiar with the test mule concept. They seem to be making quite a few? In general, how many are made before production begins?
  10. Guess the Dark Horse owners kit

    I was not impressed by the Mach 1 display, with the gears and pinion; it remains in the box. The enclosed documentation though, the brochure and the letter, were nice. I like to see future kits with a scale replica of the owners car, in their color, with a small plaque indicating the VIN. A...
  11. First S650 Mustang with Stripe Package photo

    The past two MYs, Ford has been pretty bad about updating their web site. Not only late to update features, but often with errors. But there's hope. We're seeing more and more reveals, and, we've witnessed some great renderings here.
  12. [FAKE NEWS] 2024 Mustang S650 price leak or fake?

    I wish everyone well with their orders and their cars. I placed an order in January and received the car in June. In those six months, the price of my order increased $3000. Fortunately, I and others received Price Protection, but not everyone did. Destination and delivery prices increased...
  13. Grabber Blue S650 Mustang GT spotted (video)!

    Thanks for the video. IMO, the increase in sightings give promise to an earlier start of production. It's probably the lighting, resolution, etc., but...I'd like to see the same car with a black 5.0 badge and black spoiler. I own a GBM, but breaking things up a bit can enhance almost any color...
  14. Mach 1/Dark Horse sightings

    I can go some days without ever seeing one Mustang. Others, it seems I can't walk five feet without tripping over one. I've witnessed three other M1s in my area, two base models (yellow, orange) and one HP (FJG). But I've only seen each of these once. S550s of various other flavors are most...
  15. What is this part I think it fell off of the car. 2019 Mustang GT

    FWIW, it reminds me of an escapement mechanism mechanical watches use. "An escapement is a mechanical linkage in mechanical watches and clocks that gives impulses to the timekeeping element and periodically releases the gear train to move forward..."
  16. S650 - The designers speak

    Stories involving the process of being accepted for the Pebble Beach Concours or Mille Miglia seem apt. Some car owners will present tomes of information about their cars, gushing about every last detail as to why they deserved to be part of a concours or historic race; these cars are often not...
  17. Abimelec Design - Widebody Dark Horse Mustang

    That...that, uh...No Thank You.
  18. S650 GT Convertible | Miami International Auto Show (pics + vids)

    Yes, turn signals are in the mirrors of mine.
  19. Can anybody translate this for me?

    I focused on this term: "features its new Modular Power Cylinder (MPC) Engine Architecture". If I am correct, some references... https://www.motortrend.com/news/2024-ford-mustang-engine-ecoboost-v-8-deep-dive/ "Oh, and that MPC stands for Modular Power Cylinder, which refers to the combustion...
  20. [FAKE NEWS] 2024 Mustang S650 price leak or fake?

    The base price of a 2022 Mach 1 in early 2022 was $55,000. Ford's web site currently lists a 2022 Mach 1 base price of $56,250. It's difficult to see how a 2024 DH could be at least $6,250 cheaper. From inflation alone, the car should be more expensive still.
