I have not been able to find any website where I can track my VIN or have it show a meaningful status myself yet. US and Canadian sites just says they cant find the VIN/Order number. I might just need to nag the dealer for updated screenshots every now and then. I think once they start...
Definitely not some random number. The vehicle status has also changed to "serialized".
I haven't been contacted by my dealer either. I pinged them and asked them for an new screenshot of my order.
Well I'll be damned. Just got a reply from my dealer. I have a vin for my Dark horse. Not sure how accurate it is, but the ETA is 5 April 2024.
Now just give me the price Ford!
Wow, that's exciting. I haven't checked in with my dealer for a while. Was just waiting on pricing. I better check and see if I have a vin as well.
Just silly really if people have vins and cars, but no pricing. Lol
I don't know if Ford is reading these forums or not, but I will not be taken for a ride. I've already been waiting nearly 2 years for this car but in the end it's just a toy. If they try and take me for a ride I'll take note, avoid Ford for any future vehicle purchases and move on without a...
Agreed. For me, the weirdest thing about the Z is that square front grill. Looks like a 65" TV mounted to the front. I think the Throttle House guys had some weird stability issues with it as well. Speaking of which, here is a old but good GT vs Supra comparison from them
Amen to that. Totally agree. Same argument as auto vs manual Mustang.
The overall package is why I chose a manual Mustang. Not saying everyone should do the same. Each to their own likes and requirements but for me, I'm happy with my choice.
This is true. We were not discussing top speed though. We were talking 0-60 times.
Reasonable common sense assumed. Like the 0-60 of a Nissan Leaf is not that spectacular, but a Plaid or Rimac Nevera is pretty epic if all you care about is acceleration.
The other component as you'd know is the ratios. That Tremec should have shorter gears than the mt82. I think 1:1 is 5th in the Tremec compared to 4th for the MT82.
New cars are a little heavier as well.
Like you say, it's early days. We will see and know more as we get more data.
Of course the auto is faster. No one is arguing that. If ultimate speed is your thing, buy an auto or a EV. Comparing manual Mustangs, I don't think the S650 is bad. Certainly the DH isn't. If you look at the 1 foot figure (which most professional outfits use these days) in that video, he did a...
This doesnt look to bad for a manual car. Pretty repeatable as well. If you look at the screenshot of the Dragy, the 1 foot which most publications use these days was 4.1s.
Pretty similar to my GT order. I have a GT and a DH on order both pending pricing.
My GT order is Atlas blue with manual, black accent package, Magneride, no Recaros.
My DH is Blue Ember, manual, with Recaros.
I saw that this morning. To be fair he just could not get that thing to hook. Some PS4S's with bigger tyres should sort some of that. I think that is a base car so it has skinny tyres on the rear.
But for sure, if you care about drag times or 0-100 times, the manual is not for you, get an auto...
Totally agree. The DH is the new Mach1. Its more track focused. Not that I'm going to be taking mine to the track on a regular basis or going to be drag racing it either. We buy these things for the emotions it stirs up. So yeah I'm not going to feel the 20HP. I also ordered mine with the Tremec...
