Spot-on. For the 2024 MY, the B&O Sound System was included with High Premium, or could be optioned for $1295 with the obligatory Co-Pilot Assist+. For the 2025 MY, the B&O Sound System is a $995 extra that still requires Co-Pilot Assist+, so is $2090 at minimum, and makes the full High...

Ford's US Website has launched the 2025 configurator. Highlights: Dark Horse still exists, DH Premium MSRP increased by $3645 GT and GT Premium MSRP increased by $2600 Ecoboost 2.3L Performance Package and MagneRide removed B&O Sound System now $995 option, no longer comes in High Premium...

SCRA is a "pause button" on legal proceedings while a soldier is deployed, for example if their neighbor is suing them for a damaged fence, the neighbor can't get a judgment in absentia. Or if OP had already bought the car, they might be able to compel the dealership to make a good faith effort...

I hope to see Ford return to cars. To compete with inexpensive Chinese EVs, they need smaller hybrid sedans, not $50k+ SUVs. You're one of the people who convinces me Ford is leaving money-on-the-table by not having a "Panamera 4S E-Hybrid" equivalent in their Mustang "stable". Putting the...

Being shutdown in July does give them a backlog of Ecoboosts to fill in early August, but I'm still prepared for the possibility my blend date gets pushed.

We're looking at these low-swept, 2-door coupes from the late 70s up against a modern car with multiple crash pillars, high body lines, giant wheels desperately trying to keep proportion with the oversized body; the car the Capri resembles is the Polestar 2. I'm okay with the aesthetic, but...

I don't recommend threatening people with litigation, it won't improve negotiations. OP just needs to reach an agreement with the dealership for the storage of the car for a month, even if that requires buying the car now and putting the storage as an addendum to the purchase agreement.

CUV: Corporate Uninspired Vehicle. The most exciting thing about the new Capri is the paint color.

It definitely takes more than headlights and a roofline to make something a "stablemate". The Capri looks like a fun runabout, it's coming in playful colors and we all know the mass market loves their crossovers. But they're only calling it a "stablemate" for the same reason a Mach E is a...

I am glad the Emberglo interior comes in ActiveX for the convertibles, that said from looking through hundreds of S550 convertible listings, I'm impressed how well Ford's leather / pleather holds up. OP's seat cover is damaged and possibly defective, that's not how it wears normally.

You run the wires from the amp to both sets of terminals on the subwoofer. The impedance is fine, don't overthink it.

The way you have it wired in parallel is fine for utilizing the stock amplifier.

It's funny, because the non-premium S550 has the opposite problem: here's your entire dashboard keypad for dialing phone numbers. Oh, and don't worry, for "safety", even when you have a passenger, we'll disable the keypad if the car is moving.

Mischievous Purple, Grabber Blue, Twister Orange? Ford's got you covered. Mischievous Purple with the vanity plate PBJELLY would be fun.

Imagine having the one-and-only Barbie Pink GTD.

The manual DH is the only way to get the Tremec TR-3160. Thanks to the discounts on the GTs (~$5k), you can pick up a GT Performance Package for $15k ~ $20k less than a DH if you want the 10R80 auto with the 3.55 Torsen.

There's no such thing as bad publicity. Mach E sales have taken off since the price cuts, if it was called the "Edge EV" you have to wonder if people would even know it existed.

That's the selling point of a true "grand tourer" convertible, like a Mustang Premium or a BMW 4-series. The Miata is a fun weekend car, but the second you pass a semi-truck on the highway you gain a new appreciation for how much sound-deadening it lacks. The Mustang, on the other hand, is...

The factory that builds Mustangs is closed until at least August, possibly later. GTs have supply chain issues, which makes the date an unscheduled 2024 order will finish anyone's guess.

If you're sold on the Performance Package, you'll appreciate MagneRide. Much like the Active Valve Exhaust, it lets you choose whether it's a quiet drive, sporty adventure, or track day.
