Yeah this is all anybody is saying far as I can tell. Nobody thinks 87 will harm the engine, it just makes less power. The cost difference is meaningless to me. I personally want every scintilla of power the car can give, all the time. Otherwise I’d have bought something else. It ain’t...

You paint with a pretty broad brush, and seem to be part of the large group that categorically deems anyone who disagrees with it‘s world view as automatically wrong. I couldn’t care less about your first statement. And regarding your second generalization, ok, so what? Who doesn’t have issues...

You know, I started to quote this message and highlight the portions I really agreed strongly with and I thought were smack on the money. But I quickly realized I’d have to highlight your entire post. I‘m glad somebody gets the significance of what Ford has done here without carping about what...

Right. And interior designers can outfit high end homes from the Salvation Army Thrift Store. Ummm, no. Come on guys. It’s great to have pipe dreams and mental dalliances, but not if you think they’re real.

Thank you Paul. I got it home just in time for a spate of seasonably uncharacteristic bad weather in my area so I’ve only put about 90 miles on it. But they were spirited enough miles for me to realize how very special this car is, in every way. I love my Machs but this thing is in a whole...

I know the “making of” video has been posted but until today I hadn’t seen the full ride-along only video. If you haven‘t seen it, here you go: It‘s really amazing, and the sound is surreal! Finally, a Mustang even GT350 owners will probably admit sounds as good as their cars! Or not… I will...

Just one. This comes up all the time so you can do a search and read for days. But why in the world would anyone buy a beautiful new PP GT manual Mustang then cheap out on fuel? I just do not get it! Sure, it’ll probably run on 87 but not at it‘s best. I personally can’t see owning a car like...

Truth is if he trades it to a dealer or sells it to a reseller, he’ll never get more than wholesale anyway. That‘s how they make money and turn a profit. Take a car in at wholesale, put it back out at retail. Of course you’re right in that a convertible will be worth more in the spring than...

Your GT didn’t depreciate $25K in 6 months. You paid too much to start with by ~4-5 grand, so knock that off your 25K. And you have some milage accumulated to, so deduct that from the $25K. Then there’s the accident and painting incidents that are a part of your cars’s permanent record. All that...

If that’s what it takes to avoid the A.S.S. system I would personally consider it a bargain. I find it to be the most irritating device ever foisted involuntarily on a consumer.

Can the actual build date of a new Mustang be determined from the window sticker? I’m attaching mine below. I see up top where it says “blend“ but I’m not sure how to read the date and I don’t really know what blend means anyway. The mfg. data sticker on the door jamb reads 10/24 but shows no...

You do. Unless you roll it in track mode, maybe sport too I’m not certain.

If you guys are actually using the GT3/GT3RS/GTD prices you keep talking about as a definition of relative value on these cars you’re kidding yourselves. As I have said, the GTD‘s price will be dictated by the auction resale market for all but the lucky first round buyers. It’s unlikely to be...

Yeah, this right here! I’m not sure about all the Monday morning quarterbacking here. It kinda cracks me up when civilians are second guessing an all-star team of engineers like this, but such is the internet. I‘m personally proud to own a tiny piece of the DNA that went into such an...

Sure they are. But having an opinion is completely different from expressing it openly, especially in a manner that is clearly intended to belittle the choices of people who see things differently from you.

I‘m not sure why it should “kill” anybody what another person does or does not do with a car he bought and paid for himself.

Thanks for this! I did google it up and it puts my mind at ease. Come to think of it, it sounds exactly like the bump you get from an old 4WD vehicle if you keep the hubs engaged on pavement. Similar principle I’m sure. And no doubt the 305 Trofeos up front add fuel to the fire too. I‘ve...

Whoa, really? I’m [pleasantly] surprised if it‘s normal because it‘s pretty disconcerting. I don’t remember my ’24 GT doing it but maybe I just didn’t turn it as hard.

This right here to me is the best reason of all. I’m old and have a lot of things that could go wrong with me and get us stranded. So two of my three are automatics and I guess I just take a chance when we’re out in the manual. If I have to call a flatbed so be it. I try not to be too risky but...

Title pretty much describes it. This occurs when turning hard say to get out of the garage. Kinda like when you run over something and your tire feels like it slides a bit then pops on the pavement. I say pavement but with these big 305s on my new HP Dark Horse I wonder if maybe the tire could...
