First things first, the intention of this thread is to give opinions on what how you think Ford will design the S650.
Second, this is also a wishlist for things you want or don't want on the S650.
Third, there are many expectations that drive a concept to fruition.
I think it's safe to say we would all like a car that looks like a mustang, with a GT option that can outperform the American competition.
Some people will want a pony-car that keeps true to the original formula, offering sporty characteristics that can be obtained for a reasonable price with room in the back for small children.
Some people will want a more sophisticated sportscoupe that can compete with the best that Germany has to offer, yet for a fraction of the cost.
Some people will want a mustang that can compete against the likes of tenured sports-cars (Corvette, 911, etc.)
I would like to try and avoid the whole standard tech vs entry-level price debate, as upgraded equipment can always be optioned, and that horse has been beat to death in the 2018 refresh thread.
This thread is a first principle exercise of what could motivate the design and fruition of the next big thing. All Speculation, regardless of probability is welcome. Exotic configuration changes are encouraged. Just don't expect everyone to agree with you. We all have our hot buttons.
So what is your hearts desire for the S650 platform.
TL;DR Speculate on what you think or want the S650 to be.
