Agreed, I've seen brand new cars on the lot that already need to have the rotary tool treatment to get the swirl marks out.
Those of you who take delivery of a new car (Mustang or not), don't let the dealership wash it for you. Just tell them you'll take the car as is. Unless of course...
The relation of the headlamps to the grill on the Camaro is better. It has better symmetry and better design language overall while the Mustang is just bad symmetry. The Mustang's headlamps do not work with the grill design or the grill does not work with the headlamps, however you want to...
You can't drive a 500 or an 800 hp car on the street like its meant to be driven. It's like bringing an Abrams tank to a pistol match. To be fair its not necessarily about the hp number so much as it is about the performance level. You could have a commercial truck for instance that 400 or...
I'm remembering how things went when the 2005 Mustang came out. Nobody got discounts on that car until the end of the 2006 model year. You could get MSRP, but not discounts. This is not a Corvette with a limited customer base. This is a Mustang that costs less and will draw more customers by...
I'm not real critical of the Porsche flat six motors. You have to give props to a 3 . something liter that cranks out that kind of power. But I hear they are very maintenance intensive and if you don't pour a lot of maintenance into it the motor will pretty much kill itself. Again, just word...
That was pretty much my point. The Mustang isn't that much heavier than the Vette so complaints about it being heavy just don't make sense to me. Not everything needs to be Miata light. I wouldn't buy a Mustang that was small and light like a Miata, that defeats the point.
True, but what does it weigh as compared to the flat six in the 911 for instance? Or the 1.8 in the Lotus?
I heard somewhere that the 1.8 engine in the Lotus is only good for about 40,000 miles and then you pretty much either have to replace it or rebuild it because it's run out due to how...
Don't expect to get any sort of money off or rebate by next Christmas. The car will hit the lots in August and by Christmas time demand will still be high. More likely you can expect dealerships to mark the car up over MSRP instead. It will take about 9 months to a year before prices start to...
I thought it was balsa compressed between two sheets of something, etc etc. Could be the C6. The point being, Corvette is not a car that is laden with all sorts of exotic materials. It's pretty common stuff and they have just done a variety of things to save weight where they can. European...
