Isn't that basically Tesla's model? I think the problem is that you have a bunch of franchisees that will push back hard because it would substantially reduce the value of their businesses. I think that's what is (or was) going on in NJ with dealers and Tesla fighting. Basically, they didn't...
I've been contemplating the GT, S3, and new R.
I owned a 2004 R32 bought it used with 7000 miles and sold it a 2 years later with more than 30,000 on the clock. Funny thing is that I made $3500 on it. Not that I would expect that again, but I do think the S3 and R will hold their value quite...
I bet most of its time is made up in corner exit with the S550. That's usually the best place to find time on a street car that I've found. But, it probably is helped a lot with corner entry stability. Especially if they've got the car more balanced and able to rotate better without trail...
Silver is going to be easier to sell than most other colors. Not that anyone on here will ever sell their 2015...
From my perspective, I like subtle. I don't like standing out in a crowd for the sake of standing out. I guess my personality is to have an imbalance of go over show.
Strictly speaking from a peak HP to weight ratio, it is plenty to make up for 80lbs. The 14 Mustang is around 8.5lbs/hp. 80lbs/15hp = 5.3lbs/hp, so it's an improvement in weight to power.
Might be a similar housing, but there's no way it's internals are the same. The 2.3 EB will have to flow a lot more than the ST's to make a reliable 310hp.
This calculator on Gasbuddy is pretty handy for planning fuel stops. It lets you adjust a bunch of variables and optimizes where you should fill up.

It'll be interesting to see how much is on the table for the EB engine as far as just a flash goes.
VW's new 2.0 TSI apparently left ~80whp on the table with a stage 1 flash. Good for 110mph trap speeds and almost 12s in a GTI.

CAFE standards jump quite a bit in 2015 and 2016, which I'm sure Ford is planning for... In fact, I bet part of the reason the new Mustang has a larger footprint is to help with meeting CAFE. Footprint is used to calculate a car's mileage target. The larger the footprint ( to a certain point)...
$ for $, the EB will lose less than the GT in resale given equal condition. If you look at used Mustangs, they all depreciate at the roughly same rate (sans SE ones). So, a lower priced Mustang will flush less money down the drain at resale.
Modern turbo 4s hold there value just fine. Look at...
Keep in mind that the 2015 Mustang suspension will have more in common with your 135i than it does with the 2014 Mustang. So, what aftermarket brand setup that was great in the past may not be as dialed in as others in the future.
I find the best way to do this as a consumer is to let others...
