GT500 will be faster and it will retain its value better than the Dark Horse if you don't mind having an automatic. But if you plan on tracking, keep in mind that consumables will be $$$$ with the GT500. Be sure you can afford it before buying. I probably wouldn't select a new Dark Horse...

I would hate for them to downgrade the engine to lower HP and make it more like a Chevy pushrod V8. Low end torque is for engines that go into pickups and station wagons. The car does need improved transmission gearing though. That's what the problem is for the manual transmission. The...

I do agree the older fobs seem a little cheap. I didn't ever have a problem with one, but I never owned a Mustang for 4 years. The GT350 made it 3.5 years, which was pretty good for me. The 2015, only one year, because I HAD to have a GT350.

Just what I want to carry in my pants pocket all day - a bank vault. I agree with what you are saying that a big heavy item feels like it has quality - whether or not the item actually has quality.

I really prefer the older fobs over the new ones. The new fobs are just as fat, bloated and oversized as the vehicles Ford makes. Is this progress?

I've had large adults in the current Mustang back seat, and I'm tall. I wouldn't go on a long trip, but it's usable. I think for children or smaller people the seat could get ~1-2 inches smaller. And they could take a foot out of the trunk. And probably 6 inches to a foot out of the engine...

I agree the Coyote is large, but Ford didn't try hard to make the Mustang as small and light as possible. There's a lot of room in the engine compartment, inside the car, and the trunk is HUGE. They didn't even work hard to get the engine close to the ground for a better COG. The 911 on the...

Facial recognition for the starter. You have a key fob, but only use it to set up the vehicle. Who wants to carry their phone around where ever they go? Theft PROOF! Edit: although if the car knows it was you driving and then also has a lot of memory and communication abilities - I can see...

If you've driven a number of new cars you will notice significant differences in the cars that the engineers spend more time on. I noticed a big difference in the level of polish between a GT and GT350, for example. Just minor things, not a huge deal, but IMO they matter and I'm glad for Ford...

I fit into the Shelby Recaros at the track attack in Utah - probably because they were broken down from so many drivers. However, generally I end up on top of the bolsters because they are too narrow for me. I'm sure the Recaros are great if you are the exact right size for them. It's too bad...

I'm 6'4" 200 lbs and the seats are small for me as well. My lats don't fit between the bolsters on the seat back and the seat bottom is also slightly too narrow. I do agree that the Mustang is designed to fit man-sized people, but I wish the seats would fit me a little better. Personally I...

True - you said that you believe Ford stockholders would want Ford to only make the car with the best ROI. So I guess you didn't really say it. You just said that someone else would say it. Either way, I still think Ford did well with the GT. They won Le Mans and got a lot of publicity from...

Not even close. Those engines only made about 300 HP. But they actually were pretty good as a less expensive option.

That's why I suggested an NA 3.7 V6. It would actually weigh less than the 5.0 and possibly less than the 2.3 T. And it is a lot less complicated and less expensive than having twin turbos on a smaller 6 cylinder engine.

I think the DH should BE the GT performance package. The extra naming and styling are extra costs on Ford's side that I think they should skip and pass the savings on to their customers. I agree with being able to delete all the items you don't want for street driving as an available option...

Sorry, but I'm going to pull a @6String on you. Review what you just wrote. You want Ford to make F150 and nothing else? That's the vehicle with the best ROI. Anyway - I get your point about stockholders, but I think when a car company just focuses on the bottom line their reputation falls...

I think it looks good, but I do wish Ford engineers had worked a little harder to decrease the size of the front and rear overhangs. If I buy a Mustang, it's not for practicality and a large trunk. It's for performance first and looks second. Umm, what? Yes, I noticed that right away. The...

The paint color is really cool with a lot of flop and everything. The only problem I see is that there are a lot of angles on the car, so it looks like the colors of the different panels don't match. It was especially annoying me on the hood to the front bumper cover adjacent to the hood...

I agree with you on the double wishbone thing. Heck, 911s don't even have double wishbones until recently. The EV problems are almost completely around batteries. Batteries are too expensive, take too long to charge and don't last long enough. I agree there are charging issues too, but those...

Yes sales are low. They are selling every car that is produced, though. Sales are limited by production numbers. It would be nice if they were making more cars for sure. In order to get one I had to put money down to reserve a car while it was still in the production pipeline, wait two...
