Adds weight but it's also supposed to be more rigid. Great for those that don't want to sacrifice the coupe's nice roofline but want the vert's added natural light with less added weight and price. Also as said above, anything to differentiate the Mustang is a good thing. Just like HUD for...

This is pretty much most people's assumption at this point based on "insiders" at Ford talking to auto news sites. If it turns out false, the massive overreaction from the public should be blamed on none other than these insiders. If I were Ford I would do a little info dropping to tone...

I would hope that before they decide on a CD4 variant for the Mustang the answer would be that both can be done otherwise I don't see the point. Platform sharing is supposed to be cheaper than developing and maintaining an altogether separate sports car platform just for the Mustang (and...

That basically says the same thing as OP's source. No bueno. This is going to be a much longer wait than I expected if it's true. I can't imagine a S197 anniversary edition this late in the game to generate any real excitement.

No way. Maybe on the SVT product, but not on a car that anyone is going to daily drive. That would guarantee epic failure in Europe too.

True but if they stick it in a Lincoln no one will give a rats ass. I hope Chevy puts the GM's TTV6 in the Camaro so it pressures Ford to do the same with the Mustang. I dont care if it threatens the V8's. Let the market decide which one is better. We may just find out that both can coexist.

Every test car has had different wheels... and a few of the pics they look staggered. If this is them testing brakes, could it be a better indication of what type of wheels we'll see?

Yea dealers and their info. They get most of the stuff from the same places that the rest of us do. Most of them are even less informed than enthusiasts. How much of a deposit did you put down, just curious, if you don't mind sharing.

I don't think today will decide much for me. The "face" of the car is probably just the grill. We'll still likely not know about how far back the roofline extends, the rear, and even the side scoop/hockey stick elements. Definitely something is better than nothing tho and it'll be good to get...

Whatever the base is it's not gonna be 350hp IMO. 305hp with a bigger heavier car is working just fine for the cruiser option. If they do, I doubt they do it with the Ecoboost engine that may have more warranty issues with that aggressive tune compared to the standard 3.7L Also I think we...

Ford To Scale Back NHRA Drag Racing Efforts Following 2014 Season The drag racing community has been abuzz in recent weeks with discussions and...

Those lucky bastards. Even Jack Telnack only got to see a full scale model.

It was always known it would be a limited production but they never said when it would end. Now it seems like it's in the bag that this is gonna be the first SE for the S550. Wonder how many units they're planning. 350 a year is tiny for the Shelby version. I'm hoping once they drop the Shelby...

I agree it's been a little slow. I'd like to see more, not less, than your usual refresh. And those countdown videos..... MEH. Ford does too much of that already I think. It's history is great and i appreciate it but it does nothing to get me excited for the new car.

Too early to tell. Seeing it on the prototypes doesn't mean much, they can easily swap those out. I would think tho, if we keep seeing the same size tires over and over it's a good sign they wont be downsizing it for the production version. You know, under-promise and over-deliver.

Yea it looks like it was custom made. But then we never saw a mule running around with actual lights wearing that same camo. Why else would they fit that unfinished nose (with no lights) with a cover that has cutouts? Either someone missed a photo opp or Ford was just playing games i suppose.

Thank you Ford for not making any of these. Let's hope with the death of the falcon, Ford doesn't get any crazy ideas of doing a 4 door stang.

What cover is that tho? It doesn't look like the s197 nose camo from the spy shots back in 2004. it's also not the '13 Fusion camo. I'd say they made this specfically for the s550 with cutouts for where the lights would go but then if you look closely it's pretty ripped up, like they took...

Here's a question, We've already seen much less camo on the s550 nose from these pics. Seems we already know the basic shape of the nose/grille from these? They can put all the padding they want on it now to make it look bigger/bulgier but we've seen it under a very thin cover already...

LOL :bolt: Did not mean to rain on any parades. I'm just saying Telnack was also responsible for the Probe and these designs remember?
