    Challenger or S650

    Sort of like how the 2024 Mustang came out in 2015 and has only had small updates ever since?

    Challenger or S650

    Not really. A Dark Horse is a bit over 4,000 lbs., right? A Scat Pack is 4,300ish? That's only one fat guy heavier. And to have a larger, comfy, practical car that actually has four usable seats is well worth that small trade-off. I've had a lot of Mustangs and I enjoy the one I've got...

    Official: 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona (EV + ICE), Scat Pack, Daytona R/T Revealed! 670 Horsepower / 0-60mph in 3.3 Secs

    People have said that for years. 2024 Mustang Dark Horse is what, 4,050 lbs? A Challenger Scat Pack is 4,250ish? The 2025 Charger is all new chassis and platform that's more lightweight, so the gas versions will likely be equal or less than the Mustang in weight.

    Official: 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona (EV + ICE), Scat Pack, Daytona R/T Revealed! 670 Horsepower / 0-60mph in 3.3 Secs

    650+ horsepower in a body that looks like the late 60s Mopars and has 2 doors available? The more I see of it the more I love it. Everybody is focused on the EV version. Yes the EV version will be expensive, heavy, (fast as hell), and annoying to keep charged. That's why you buy the gasoline...

    Official: 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona (EV + ICE), Scat Pack, Daytona R/T Revealed! 670 Horsepower / 0-60mph in 3.3 Secs

    And AWD/RWD selectable. Wow. Can't wait to hear the transmission ratio and axle ratio specs. If they do it right even the base models will be nasty 0-60.

    Official: 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona (EV + ICE), Scat Pack, Daytona R/T Revealed! 670 Horsepower / 0-60mph in 3.3 Secs

    Gotta' admit, I love it. The base model with ICE is 420 HP and with the twin turbo nature of the engine it'll be tunable for big power. It'll also start around $40k or slightly more. And it looks awesome. Hmm....

    Driving Tips - Manual Transmission

    We were always told throughout the years that the more often you’ve got the clutch pedal depressed, the faster the throw-out bearing will wear. So I’ve gotten into a habit of going to neutral when I see red up ahead. This way I use the clutch once, not several times, and then select the gear...

    K&N CAI bolt-on installed on 5.0L GT

    So on the new cars there are TWO of the MAF sensors that'll get ruined by the oil from the K&N filters now. :) Seriously though, prospective buyers should look at that Project Farm video where he tested air filters. The amount of junk the K&N lets through is exponentially greater than a stock...

    Challenger or S650

    I’ve had 2 Challengers and several Mustangs. I don’t understand where the misconceptions about the Challengers come from. Mine was like 4100 lbs. The new Mustang GT Premium is what, 3950? That’s pretty damned close. I also had no problems with the handling. My Challengers handled amazing...

    Mustang GT (manual) vs. Camaro LT1 (manual)

    I’ve seen quite a few videos lately where Camaro SS cars take down 5.0 Mustangs. I really don’t know what to make of it. Of course there are a lot of variables. But I just don’t see how that’s happening. I mean, my car is a ’13 Premium with the MT-82. It’s got a Flowmaster muffler kit and...

    Quality is not job One at Flatrock

    Well first of all the design of the hood is retarded. That 3-angle corner on each side makes it look terrible and it's also nearly impossible to line it up perfectly with the grille and both fenders. Stupid design on Ford's part. The '24 I looked at when my dealer got it in had wrinkled...

    Buyers Remorse on Dark Horse | Car now Scheduled for 22May2023 Built

    I would bag up a low mileage Mach 1 instead of a Dark Horse. They're a little stronger on the dyno, more unique, and will hold value better in the future.

    S650 slow......what's the truth???

    Yes, because a $20k car with $500 bucks in parts trumps a $50k car that runs the same times every day of the week.

    2024 fully loaded Mustang DH is going for more than a 5-year-old C7 Corvette.

    Gouging won't stop until people stop paying it.

    S650 slow......what's the truth???

    I had a feeling they'd be slow. Saw some on the streets at LS Fest last weekend. My '13 GT is Steeda CAI/Tune and mufflers only. I can run with the brand new stuff door to door. It's sad really. But it saves me $50,000 because now I don't want a new Mustang anymore.

    Manufacturing defect for ‘24 Mustang Coupes

    If you can't see the problem with the leather on those seats, there ain't no point in me circling it.

    Manufacturing defect for ‘24 Mustang Coupes

    I looked at a '24 convertible in the showroom this morning. First thing that stood out to me was how poorly stitched the leather covers on the seats are. Obvious wrinkling and looseness in both the back and front seats. Unfortunately this shot I grabbed does NOT show the worst part of the...

    Been out of the loop, s650 v8 lifespan?

    I don't believe they'd invest money to develop a new gen engine for two model years. That would be dumb. We'll see Coyote around for a long time as long as they keep selling well, which they should considering that both major competitors are bowing out.

    New NISMO Z Revealed in Drifting Video Ahead of Summer Launch!

    The problem with the Z cars is they are just so damned small inside. I'm an average dude, 6'3" with my shoes on and about 224 lbs. and I can barely even get into or out of a Z. They are miserably uncomfortable. I understand it's a sports car and you aren't going to have room for boxes, gear...

    Buyers Remorse on Dark Horse | Car now Scheduled for 22May2023 Built

    That in fact is the interesting thing about it. The body sheetmetal of the Challenger hasn't changed since 2008. That's fifteen years. And yet they still outsold Mustang and Camaro both up until 2023. To me that proves that Dodge had the perfect formula on those cars. True retro looks...
