What is your Mustang hot take? (please be respectful)

[CarmeloS]

I've got a few...

1. The S550 refresh and S650 look more "American/Mustang" than the original look for the S550.
Facts, also like @Diode Dynamics brought back the foglights
2. S650 GT front end looks cleaner than the Dark Horse.
Can't comment offhand, but would agree
3. Brembos are more difficult to "chauffeur stop" than non-Brembos.
4. The rear seat is comfortable for long trips.
I'm 5'9, my two cousins were both 5'10. In my old Ecoboost 'vert, one cousin sat behind the other on our way to a jobsite and slept like a log the entire time heading from Jersey to Brooklyn
...which of my takes is the hottest?

Also think the Ecoboost needs a manual again, and that the Cyclone needs to return as well, since not everyone wants a 4banger or V8.

Also forgot to add they need to add front and side mirror cameras! Good for parking in tight spaces, lane changes, and Could make for some very fun and unique track videos as well haha

The Dark Horse emblem reminds me of Bojack Horseman

Alright... someone needs to make a badge overlay...

I may not be in the s650 crowd, yet.

My Mustang hot takes:
1. The s650 is better than the s550 in about every way. Issues I have with the 650 are same with 550.
2. Euro tails should come from the factory as option or standard. Especially on blue cars (my opinion).
3. Outside of the PP/DH spoilers, the stock spoilers from the factory are bland, to me. Ford should offer more.
4. The s650 Shelby America hood looks better than the OEM one (I prefer the very defined lines of it). Not saying the OEM one is bad tho.
5. The s550 refresh looks better than the OG s550.
6. Corsa Extreme exhausts sound good as catbacks. If you add headers they sound awful imo.
7. The s650 RTR spoiler is horrible.

Roast me

Why the waste of time {Liking or NOT Liking } TAIL LIGHTS ? The only Person that's going to "SEE " them is the Fool in the "LANE NEXT TO YOU " at the TRACK !! junqdawg

I don't know about that, I like the flashing light show. It's like a little puppy all excited to see you and go for drivies.

Sideeye don’t matter, gotta be ahead before they see behind

Here’s mine:

“Pony” is such a lame mascot, glad the night package blacks it out

Big difference between a pony and a mustang :-/

A strong wild horse vs a small horse that looks like a toy

Hot take.
Mustang prices keep going up and quality control stays poor.
Body panel alignment and paint blemishes are not acceptable anymore at this price point.

We could throw a donkey or mule on there....big difference there too., lol

Either Ford is still building Monday and Friday cars, or I'm getting less fussy. But I'm quite happy with the build quality of mine for the price.
The biggest WTF I've had was the holes at the bottom rear of the front fender liners.
All fixed now though.

Didn't imply THAT" Just said "THE driver in The Lane Next to YOU. " IN "SIMPLE " language ,I meant ,only one to SEE your tail lights will be the car that you pass on the way to the finish line . Been nitpicked on here a few times ,But "THIS" comment is a real WINNER !! HAVE A GREAT DAY ...junqdawg

 

[sloww5ohh]

I agree, 2014 looks better.

Grey and blue is so tough

 

[Cucurú]

I don't now. But to call a 5.0 Mustang bone stock a GT is ridiculous. This should be used for GTs solely with PPs. Even the GT does nothing for me. 5.0 on the Fender? Pooey! How about 307 or 302? GT on the rear ? What's GT mean, Grand Touring? A big Red SS does it for me. But you can hardly beat the Running Horse. Now these are kick butt badges.
