Obviously I'm biased, but unless you got the sweetheart Ford financing deal that just expired, idk why you would buy a '24 GT over a '23 Mach 1 for around the same price.
Agreed, this thing is so fugly when I saw the leaks yesterday I thought āno way this is realā. Looks like the top hits of early 2000ās design tacked on to the already questionable S650.
But these will absolutely sell out as status symbols.
Is the DH going to be the defining special trim for the S650, akin to the GT350? I kinda get the feeling it is, since they are emphasizing its ties to the GT3/racing program cars and are releasing a DH R and R+ or whatever.
im also curious as to their response to feedback on the screens and if...
itās a pretty popular opinion with a lot of the greater community. The screens look like ass. Still waiting to see it in person but I would be surprised if it changed my mind. FWIW Iām in my 30ās so not like a die hard traditionalist.
Hereās to hoping the mid-model revision is an improvement.
The eyebags are awful.
I maintain that I don't have FOMO about skipping the DH/early release, but I am excited to see what comes out for the refresh in the way of the cabin and special models.
Good news! If you donāt drive your GT350R, not only will you NOT have to worry about your engine exploding, itāll keep the residual value higher on BaT!
The rest of us literally donāt care.
So my point of comparison is my MY ā21 Mach. I was able to get it for under invoice from Granger, and Zach has already stated the DH will be MSRP. So taking into account price adjustments for the ā22 and ā23 model years, I would be paying something like $7k + over what I paid for my premium...
For cars at these price points, to some degree itās always going to be specific to the desires of an individual, itās not purely āI need a sports car and A offers more capability for lessā. There are plenty of die-hard Mustang fans who will only buy Ford, and really at that point itās more Ford...
I rented a Ecoboost convertible and was really unimpressed with the top mechanism; the quarter windows didnāt work well at all.
I love convertibles, and I love mustangs, but I donāt feel like the modern ones do it well together. Maybe get something more purpose designed like a Miata or Boxster...
Judging from your profile picture, I can see you have no bias hah.
As a Mach owner, I always found it far more frustrating how my car was waived off as ājust a GTā when the performance difference between it and a GT350 is pretty minimal. I say that as someone who would have purchased a GT350 if...
I bought my Mach during that unfortunate period of time where I could get my car for $54k but a '19 GT350 with 10k miles was like $65k. I told myself that was the best choice since I'll probably trade in the Mach towards a S650, but if I'm still not impressed with the later cars I may get a...
I strongly dislike the new dash.
The reason why, is that I'm looking at a S650 from the perspective of it being a 'last of the MT V8's' car that I never end up selling. For that kind of car, I'm not using it for daily driving, I'm using it for fun weekend escapism where I don't worry about all...
I bought a Mach 1 from these guys and they are awesome to work with, as anyone from the 6g forum can attest.
Zach, Iām going to pass on the DH, but when the next Boss/Shelby comes out Im getting back in line if yāall are still around!
