  1. 2015 Mustang (s550) Specs and Technical Info Guide (GT V8, V6, EcoBoost)

    We saw it, we see it... and? Are we to guess this is the engine line up you expect, hope for, or somehow know will be? I, for one, won't be holding my breath.:headbonk: I'd applaud them for doing it(except the 2.7L they keep saying is a truck engine), but I'm not holding out hope for any of...
  2. 350 hp ecoboost?

    I've been repeating that for weeks, apparently to blind eyes in most cases. :D
  3. 350 hp ecoboost?

    What year model? The manual in a 2013+ only came with the 1.6L Ecoboost. Only in FWD. I should've been more clear; We were talking about 2.3 and AWD. Dodge knew months ago where the power in the Hellcat would be... these guys aren't rookies, believe that. Simply enough, they didn't share it till...
  4. Guess the 2015 5.0 Coyote HP and TQ numbers

    I've seen this before... and it was the same "doesn't matter" in my mind then. When it comes out and we get to test our cars and read about others, we'll learn how it performs. A 4.28 time to 60mph at 3704 sounds excellent... since the car will require a driver to make it to 60(unless it's...
  5. Daytime Running Lights (DRLs) on the S550

    You'll find somewhere else to go and make up for those "lost" miles. :) The plan sounds good though. I'll say this, when it's time to fill the 350, I'm not happy... ever. Most places won't allow a fill before shutting off the card unless I take the card inside and ask them to let me fill. If the...
  6. 350 hp ecoboost?

    Well dang... how about waiting for an invite to the moon... NO CHARGE! :lol: The odds they'll offer a manual in a Fusion... slim and none. I'd be every bit as happy with the AWD 2.3L in my Escape or a Fusion(also AWD) with the auto and paddle shifters. The Fusion has them, but not the Escape...
  7. Daytime Running Lights (DRLs) on the S550

    It's going to be close to 2,600 lb? Whoa... if only it had a really powerful engine, along with the AWD, that would rock-n-roll. :thumbsup: I'll never get that "label this 1 or2 yrs ahead of time" mindset... :tsk:
  8. Daytime Running Lights (DRLs) on the S550

    Yeah, that's the whole idea behind "laser," right? :thumbsup: Think nothing of it... question was legit in my book. These lighting systems have come a very long way since about 2006!
  9. Daytime Running Lights (DRLs) on the S550

    Audi does have them on the market in Europe, as will BMW... but the reason I thought 1st of Audi is that there was a big deal made of the endurance race car having them and I often get caught up in the race stuff more than road stuff. All I knew was they were going that direction and that, for...
  10. Daytime Running Lights (DRLs) on the S550

    Precisely why I'm not driving the M5 anymore... Just... anything costs too much. i didn't NOT keep that around... but I sure did like it. Hit the throttle and it was like... :shocked: as that little V10 stuck you to the wrap around seats! I really couldn't afford it anyway. OUCH on the reverse...
  11. 350 hp ecoboost?

    Seriously? That's LAUGHABLE! Any true car enthusiast would never in his/her lifetime assume that a magazine article can tell them which engine is best, period. Need proof why that statement rings true? Look at Ward's 10 best for 2014... if you can find a single engine on the list which...
  12. Daytime Running Lights (DRLs) on the S550

    I like that car and think it just may be their best looking TT yet. Clearly, it's their best overall version of the TT... That said, I honestly think the Mustang GT will simply annihilate the TT in its highest performing level. The Mustang is going to be far more powerful and make plenty more...
  13. Daytime Running Lights (DRLs) on the S550

    ^ Yes... and it seems that in the case of Audi, they may just have more interest in pushing their laser system... big cost, but then, it's Audi and nothing about that isn't expensive. Very few companies would follow that... M-B obviously, and probably BMW, but the rest will likely hold off for...
  14. 350 hp ecoboost?

    That's a strong claim... Ford holds joint patents with M-B on many things automotive. Plus, unless you really had a repair breakdown, it's just a claim that one company builds better engines than another. In this case, all 3 are very good. Truly determining which(engine) is best would require...
  15. Daytime Running Lights (DRLs) on the S550

    I just :lol: as I noticed my "24" came out... 20! :headbonk: They probably can't get a patent on them either, since LED lights are LED lights and they can simply change their design. I concur, however... it's a bummer everyone basically went for the copy, including Ford impo, except on Mustang...
  16. 2015 Saleen 302 Mustang!

    I agree, it doesn't look customized(though that's exactly what they are). However, when I was looking at new Mustangs in 1988, I still hadn't heard of Steve Saleen or his work on Mustangs... when I happened upon what I remember to be a numbered maroon colored Mustang with what we referred to as...
  17. Daytime Running Lights (DRLs) on the S550

    For Mustang, they should be asking, as a spare is "still" an option. Of course, I never liked the tiny spare either, so... and my car has a spare(that's not properly aired up). I'm just surprised they use the "fix-a-flat" stuff because it doesn't work well with the internal portions of tire...
  18. Daytime Running Lights (DRLs) on the S550

    I don't get it... The headlamps have an auto, on, off or parking lamp position... It's the DRL w/o a switch. I mean, unless someone wants to ride around with the e-brake activated... not a great idea, to say the least. Of course, my car hasn't even got that option! If you meant for DRL, I gotcha. ;)
  19. Guess the 2015 5.0 Coyote HP and TQ numbers

    Oh... aigh't. The Dodge thing never mattered to me, so I wouldn't have figured that one out. I just wish Ford would provide full information. Like kulfyur said, I would expect pricing on the same day. Of course, they may take a page from Ford on this one. I doubt they will.
