  1. Why did you choose an automatic over a manual.

    Some folks like one, some like the other. No right or wrong, just individual preference. I personally like ā€˜em both.
  2. Getting squirrely?

    Here in the great state of GA I’d have to guess a lot is left up to officer’s discretion. On two recent occasions I’ve had LEOs fall in directly behind me and I never took it out of track mode. I behaved and never even got a look. But I’m 75, clean cut, hat not on sideways and my car looks nice...
  3. Getting squirrely?

    Yeah I totally agree. The sound of these cars is a huge part of their appeal to me and I make no bones about it. If they were exactly the same but sounded like a ā€˜70s Coupe de Ville I’d probably have no interest. Ford is well aware of this; otherwise why do they offer the AVE?
  4. Getting squirrely?

    Iā€˜m not sure I know what you mean here, Alan. In fact, I’m sure I do not. Be that as it may itā€˜s pretty simple; if you like loud and are willing to deal with any rebuke from offended parties, then rock on. Personally, I am. Anyone offended can stay home with earmuffs and a helmet on if they...
  5. Went ahead and stepped up to a Dark Horse EDIT: First drive impressions

    I am curious I’ll admit. Does it interfere with the operation of the AVE in any way?
  6. Went ahead and stepped up to a Dark Horse EDIT: First drive impressions

    90+ mile first drive impressions, ~48* in N GA foothills, track mode only: *couldnā€˜t stand it any more, had to get out *the big Trofeos weren’t any worse in cool weather than PS4s. They do tramline a little *the tramlining doesn’t matter because between that and the Tremec this car needs...
  7. Why did you choose an automatic over a manual.

    I’m 75 and wish I could ā€œlikeā€ this twice!
  8. Dark Horse hp vs GT hp

    Thatā€˜s a darn good question, I’ve wondered the same thing. Hopefully someone here actually knows. 486 in the GT seemed good but 500 is a nice round number. Truth is I’d about bet it’d be hard to tell the difference.
  9. Went ahead and stepped up to a Dark Horse EDIT: First drive impressions

    Thanks, yeah those 315/30s are some pretty serious meats for sure! It’s killing me to not be able to get out and try ā€˜em out at least a little. But I just checked the temps and it’s 30* now with a 42* high around lunch but only for an hour then back down again. Unusual for N. GA but it’s going...
  10. Why did you choose an automatic over a manual.

    Did she say why? Just curious… My wife never learned how to drive a stick and she gets a little worried that a situation might come up where she needed to drive but couldn’t. I’m lucky enough to have both and mine aren't DDs so I just go with how I feel on a given day. And of course how my...
  11. Went ahead and stepped up to a Dark Horse EDIT: First drive impressions

    HA! Guess I’m gonna have to learn the secret handshake! That is, right after I learn how to use the darn parking brake. It seems erratic to me and just when I think I finally got it off it just wants to blink at me.
  12. Went ahead and stepped up to a Dark Horse EDIT: First drive impressions

    I have once again made a liar out of myself and did what I said I wouldn’t. I guess the name grew on me over time so here I am. I have needed to get back down to three so I did a two-for-one trade yesterday for this new Dark Horse. I haven’t been able to drive it yet due to cold temps and wet...
  13. S650 slow......what's the truth???

    So, what’s a track pack? Just wondering if I missed something.
  14. My car feels slow

    Everything’s relative I guess. My 2020 A10/3.15 GT premium convertible just turned 5,000 miles and feels faster every time I drive it. I have no clue why. It lives in track mode, period. My theory is that these Coyotes pick up some muscle as they break in.
  15. Dark Horse HP ride height

    Quick couple of questions about the DH with Handling Package: How much if any does the HP reduce ground clearance compared to the standard DH? Iā€˜m thinking about the ability to go straight over a 2.5ā€œ speed bump, very slowly. I have zero problem now with my non-HP Mach 1s. How much more...
  16. Do we think Ford is going to make an S650 GT500/Cobra?

    I’ve got a feeling the next anything Ford brings out between the DH and the GTD will be a hybrid. It only seems to make sense and would serve to get Mustang fans accustomed to the idea of non-ICE propulsion. In a way I’m glad because that will eliminate it from me even giving it the most remote...
  17. Getting squirrely?

    Here you go: -use only the best 93 octane you can find -put the car in track mode EDIT: I shoulda said if track mode seems too aggressive start off with sport mode and work your way up to track -don’t manually disable any other traction or stability controls for now -two hands on the wheel...
  18. Do we think Ford is going to make an S650 GT500/Cobra?

    I thought the ā€˜24 EB was already upgraded with a new engine. Am I misinformed? I took one for a demo drive a few months ago and was totally shocked at how strong it was!
  19. Do we think Ford is going to make an S650 GT500/Cobra?

    These comments are likely accurate and then some. I’d say I’m watching this yet to be announced car with some interest but I’m not sure if I’d be willing to make the sacrifices necessary to grab one. I don’t like even paying sticker but I really hate the thought of ADM. As a dealer I never...
