What I said was "Camaro is too expensive for what you get". I didn't say it was too expensive. And I think sales figures show that I'm 100% correct in my opinion.
There's something a little off about anyone who prefers a Camaro to a Mustang.
I can't explain how you would think that. The...
I agree with a lot of what you said. Ford tends to build the Mustang with comfort as top priority. Even the GT350 I owned was very soft and comfortable on the road as a daily. I put the track handling suspension from FP in my 2017 and it's still significantly softer than my GR86 stock...
I will admit if there's a better car out there. There are lots of better cars out there, depending on your budget and what you want to use the car for. The 911 is a much better car than the Mustang. So is the Cayman. Just two examples.
I do tend to prefer front engine rear drive cars...
I don't really care too much what other people think. I don't take polls to decide what to think. I decide what to think based on the information I have available to me.
It does make a difference the size of the track for sure. I agree the Camaro is a hair faster on small tracks, whereas the...
Wow, lots of Chevy people in the Mustang 7G forums.
I get so annoyed by Alpha chassis nonsense. The Mustang chassis is slightly better than the failed Camaro's chassis. Mustang times were slower when the Mustang was equipped with less sticky tires, but once both cars had similar tires the...
It can be tough to tell if someone is using sarcasm or not when reading. I was responding to you saying a GT350 owner was biased and you are annoyed that the Mach doesn't get more respect. Maybe that was meant in sarcasm and you don't really mean either of those things. If so, I apologize...
So you are saying that in a thread about the next GT350, current GT350 owners are biased and shouldn't post in here? But Mach 1 owners who are disgruntled definitely should come in here and poop on the GT350?
Sounds about right.
I think the S650 is an improvement. I never loved any of the...
Anytime you add double the amount of parts you are going to reduce reliability. And I'm sure Ford tested the DI / PI systems, but they didn't test them for 10-20 years. That will be found out in the future. PI alone has been around for 30+ years and it's dead reliable. Adding all this extra...
It remains to be seen how well direct injected Ford Coyotes will hold up over time. Port injection is proven technology.
But definitely the Mach 1 brakes are cheaper to replace than those on the GT350.
You have to pull out cars that are used exclusively at the TRACK every single day to come up with your failures? Sorry, but that's nonsense. Yes, on track I understand more things can fail. Especially if you drive on track all the time. That's normal for any engine.
Yes I believe that...
Is he interested in selling? Just kidding. Anyway, I should say that I'm a hypocrite because I sold my GT350 out of reliability concerns and ended up with a regular GT. I really prefer the Voodoo over the Coyote, but I trust the Coyote to last (especially the pre-2018 version with the iron...
I've never heard of a single Voodoo blowing up. I put 33,000 trouble free miles on mine.
I have heard of 2019s with bad valves. And I believe that the piston rings and piston skirts are somewhat fragile. Especially the rings in the first few years of production. Possibly some rings may have...
My thoughts are that I absolutely loved my GT350 and I still want another one. I think it would be terrific if Ford would do an S650 version. I would be fine if they called it Boss as well. Especially if it was a Boss 351.
5.4 liters would be preferable to anything smaller, that's for sure...
That was pretty much the best version of it. Spray bores and DI are not improvements in my opinion. Forced induction is fine and all, but more cubes are sorely needed. Or less weight in the car.
Edit: not that I'm a fan of the pushrod engine. It could be an improvement on the Coyote - I...
I'm surprised there are so many strong negative reactions here. It's almost like people forgot what the current junky Mustang interior looks like and all of a sudden it's become a perfect gift from God. You have to admit that all that hard plastic with the fake stitching on it is pretty...
Yeah Chevy cheaped out on the engine. DI without port is asking for long term trouble. The SS 1LE isn't a bad package. If the car had better ergonomics and a good engine I would have bought one. Well I didn't really like the clutch or shifter either. Or the visibility - I felt like I was in...
