S650 Mustang Horsepower (450hp) Revealed In Window Sticker? 🙄

[Dub347sbf]

I don't know if it is 'fake', being able to pull from Oasis, it seems like it is still putting in values from 2023 MY even though its a 2024, because Ford hasn't updated their system yet. Sync 3, 8 inch screen, 2 hood vents, 450 hp..... so yeah, no reason to look into 450 hp. That won't be it.

God damn...I guess I should've explained better lol. I was mainly saying the picture and window sticker exist and are real - that its not an elaborate photoshop. I also have no doubt this (and probably a few other ones) are pre-production vehicles (build sheet shows job 1) just using an S550 sticker template as the build sheet also shows some minor changes vs a 2020 VIN (ie: sync 4, brake option #1, less wax kit (?) and probably a few others).

Unfortunately no HP figures...Ford is tight lipped about that for no reason. I have no doubt for 480+ HP, it would just be a shocker if 450 was standard less PP or some BS.

As for 1FA6P beginning VIN designation - it seems Ford or whoever regulates VINs changed something up after the S197 as 1FA is just Ford-car 6 being restraint type and P being passenger car (P8C being a GT coupe). Also the S650 isn't really...new...and I wouldn't think would require a whole new VIN besides obvious year characters and sequence characters.

If someone has VINs off the other show cars...please share lol. Edit: found a few - white PP with bronze pack, yellow PP with black accent pack(finally!)...looks like at least 30+ cars have been made as at least 5399500 to -38 is all S650. Lots of GT's too.

I was picking up what you were putting down. Any Dark Horses? Curious about about the packages...if they are even in the system yet. Wonder if it comes out as a Mach 1?!

Yeah I was in a time crunch for work this morning after finding this out. No obvious Dark Horses, but haven't looked at each individual VIN. Seems like all 38 cars are all GT's or at least built on a GT platform, all built in October around the 12th. My main guess is press cars - if Ford's aiming for summer next year, now would be the time to start at least QC production (especially with all the holidays between November/December) and start getting some cars out for the press.

Outside of that, seems like the performance pack can actually mingle with other package options finally. Wheels are 18X8 or 18X8.5 again outside of PP wheels. 3.15 standard on the auto, 3.55 with PP or just manual, 3.73 PP manual. Nothing too crazy otherwise.

That's great about the packages mixing. Still hoping for a black accent package on Dark Horse for the black wheels. Thanks for the info!

I have two stickers from 2020 for two separate 350Rs; neither list HP. My 2022 however, does. From previous comments, maybe HP began being listed in 2021? As to the truth of this particular sticker...I think we'd have to see at least one more from another source.

Must've started in 2021 because my 2020 doesn't have it and it was produced on 9/15/20.

someone i know looked up that VIN on the window sticker (1FA6P8CF4R5399537 if anyone is wondering) and it shows up in OASIS as a '24 Mustang, here's some interesting facts about it
-Vapor Blue is also called Whisper Blue and is paint code K1
-The S650 GT is ~45lbs heavier than the S550 Mach 1 (Mach 1 is 4660lbs, S650 GT is 4705lbs)
-For some reason, it's internally called "2024 S650N Mustang"
-Window sticker still has no price on it, same with the options

Okay it seems the heat is on with this topic and rightfully so. I am just going to make my predictions and you can write yours.

S550 GT US: 460 BHP /// S650 GT US: 490 BHP /// S650 DH US: 515 BHP
S550 GT EU: 450 BHP /// S650 GT EU: 465 BHP /// S650 DH EU: 485 BHP

Perhaps it’s 450 GT, 480 GT Performance, 500 DH…

I know PP1/2 previously didn’t have a power increase, but that doesn’t mean it can’t ever work that way.

This thread has aged well. It seems that Ford’s engineers are, in fact, credible.

GT Performance? Huh?

Did I miss a whole model?

Performance package. It says "Performance" inside the GT logo now

Oh ok, thanks. Excuse my overlooking the obvious.

It‘s about time the guys who spring those big bucks get some recognition for their money.
