How many are regretting

[LETHAL]

1.5 yrs later....

Regret, no.

Still wishing for tuning and interest in general and sales to pick up for this car, yes.

The temptation to go back to a S550 (Mach 1 or even a GT350) is there, but thanks to the market, many of us are upside down badly on these cars.

If I could afford it, my temptation would be the iconic 69 Boss 429.

Looks like the Mustang sold 2399 units in January 2025 compared to 3771 units in Jan 2024 so -36%.

Good grief. It’s only one month, but still…

Regarding interest, I remember watching parts installation videos on YouTube from LRM, CJ’s, American Muscle, etc., all the time in the early S550 days. There’s barely any videos for the S650. I still don’t think I’ve seen a Borla install video from any of the channels yet, unless I missed it.

OK dont shoot me.....but .....

I still think they made a mistake with the screens (well not the screens but not integrating the screens)
No tuning is hurting
I mean the cars are DAMN fast with a whipple- but I think....well I think we are seeing the same thing with the S650 GT350 - people are tired of seeing the same motor with the same whipple in 1000 different variations - outside of some different exterior mods....the only option is whipple or no whipple and I think people are bored/ over it

How many videos can you do on an S650 with a whipple?

Im not going to get into which looks better S550 vs. S650 because I think they both are great looking cars- but why would anyone move from an S550 to an S650 when you cant tune them and the pricing is way higher ...

I do not hate my screen, but honestly, I've seen FAR better integration of that theme recently in other brands. Ford says they focus grouped designs for the new IP I have to say they did not bring in MUSTANG owners for the groups.

Yeah, they are fast with a Whipple... but that is just that, a $10-12k cost just to get anywhere, NA builds are what most Mustang owners want. Tuning is critical for that,

No regrets here at all. After nearly 4K miles I smile every gear change with the H-Pipe. Addicting sounds to be honest.

Things I miss: The illuminated cup-holder and Tuning.

My only regret so far is NOT having bought a 2024. I couldn't get the wife to go ahead with the purchase, and the pricing changed. The 6MT used to be about $8k less expensive. So, we ended up with a 2025, but paid a bit more.

My only regret is not buying two or three of them while I was at it.......

 

[LouG]

My regret is not being able to afford a DH 6 spd as well.

No regrets but wish tuning would hurry up and get here. I'm ready to start really spinning this Roush.
