  1. Thinking about going from GT back to a slow car

    Getting 15.5mpg on a stock 2010 Audi S4. 14mpg on a boosted car sounds like a bargain :) GT gets pretty good gas mileage, comparatively. OP -- good choice holding on to it. Maybe consider a used Fiesta ST? They are like 10K now. Shit, now I want one!
  2. April 2018 Mustang Sales

    If the Fusion can be axed, the Camaro can easily be axed considering they have the vette. Crazy times
  3. Mustang Ecoboost Rental

    I've owned an ecoboost fusion, and at the time the new ecoboost mustang came out 1/2 way into my lease, would have loooooooved to swap for an ecoboost stang at the time. You're taking things too far there. I do agree about the V8 though, it's irreplaceable. I like, not love my Audi S4. It's a...
  4. Ford Axing all cars except Mustang and Focus Active Crossover in North America

    I don't like the move (shoulda kept the fusion) but keep in mind they're not axing sedans at Lincoln. With the MKZ in 2013 when I got my Fusion I thought it looked better than the Lincoln counterpart, and for a lot less. Maybe Lincoln will get some love finally? I guess sedans are going...
  5. Dyno Numbers - Disappointed

    1) Curve of powerband 2) This is why people dyno before and after, the dyno is a measurement device that is not absolute, reference points are needed.
  6. Ford Axing all cars except Mustang and Focus Active Crossover in North America

    Four dour mustang someday with hidden/trick door handle? Maybe they are taking the sedan to Lincoln? Shocked. I woulda thought the Fusion made the cut -- if you want a sedan from Ford it's the Fusion. Combine some of your disappearing Focus and Taurus sales into Fusion, and that sounds like a...
  7. 2019 Camaro refresh to compete with 2018 Mustang refresh

    Positives: Rear 180 degree camera added. I'd have to drive with this always on in that thing. Negatives: Ugly front grille, horrific bowtie placement, taillight downgrade
  8. 2019 Camaro refresh to compete with 2018 Mustang refresh

    That grille is hurting the front end more than anything. The curves do not flow with the rest of the lines.
  9. 2018 Mustang GT questions

    Anyone know if there will be factory cloth recaros available? 2015s PP included Recaros, not seeing this on build and price with 2018, it still shows a cloth seat.
  10. January 2018 Sales

    Yes, he's going to be boring and count beans. However, Mustang is probably Ford's most well known model. The last thing a bean counter does is retire a nameplate that has the highest Q score out of all his cars. He's more likely to abuse the nameplate for sales with a vehicle that either goes...
  11. Mustang or M240i

    Yes, it is hyperbolic. On top of it, an M235i in most instrumented tests is only around .2 behind the stang in a 1/4 mile, 4MPH lower trap speed. In a lot of spots on the street the M235I might actually be quicker, so anemic is a pretty silly word to use. An Xdrive M235I probably matches the...
  12. Finally Got to See One In Person (Exterior Feedback)

    Yup, they'll let you float a little over 80. On I5 once you're out of the LA or SFbay area, you can go 85 and never get pulled over. 90 sometimes but only if you're in a long line. Whenever I visit family in Ohio I'm always shocked at how grandma the driving is. Here in California if you're 5...
  13. PP2...........starting to appear at dealerships

    Agreed. You have to buy what you enjoy, and unless your specifically buying a track car I think you can have more fun with a GT350 in terms of the unique engine and A+ exterior. It has a lot of "Wow" factor that creates huge smiles just walking up to the car and turning it in, you're in love...
  14. Finally Got to See One In Person (Exterior Feedback)

    Ya you can drive 80 on highways with zero fear of cops. A bit short of 130 but at least its not Ohio driving.
  15. Mustang or M240i

    You have a way of making your point in an argumentative, non-friendly way. I remember those M235I vs. S550 threads because I was part of them and for the most part agreed with what you said just not how you said it. Things can be conducted as friends, just assume everyone is a buddy. :cheers...
  16. December 2017 Mustang Sales

    Yup, and a lot of these crossover folks view Mustang/Camaros as daily drivers... visibility, trunk space, rear seat all matter.
  17. 2018 without active exhaust?

    Sure, but from a dealer's perspective I'd think for $895 the exhaust would sell the car faster. 301A w/ big screen/nav + active could sell a lot of cars.
  18. December 2017 Mustang Sales

    He's not wrong in one way it is a weekend car, impractical overall. That's basically why it didn't sell. Even many owners view it as a spare car.
  19. '18 Steeda Q-Series

    Nice Wheels. Hopefully someone makes an aftermarket bumper that gets rid of the triangles at some point.
  20. Oil change far too early on '17 GT

    In the Mobil1 study on Mobil1 0w40 they noticed no degredation in oil performance until around 7500 miles. 5K is short, I think we can go 7K safely.
