So is the needle more toward 7 or 4 position? I am actually afraid to check. Cant' change that.

Hi Nitro, Is the steering in your FR-S electric or hydraulic? I test drove a lot of new cars with electric steering and they all felt disconnected. My friend who has a newer BMW told me the same thing. But I guess you can't help it but at least the steering should be accurate and responsive...

I am wondering if all of these low speed ride has something to do with the compromise low cost of the shock/springs combo. Intuitively, with lower cost components, you can't really have it all. You either get high speed performance or low speed comfort but not both. I supposed with a more...

Wait a minute. Are you Ford CEO? I mean this may be the first unofficial confirmation of the existence of the next GT40?

Interesting all these "quite" comments. Denzel Wahsington once said in a movie "the loudest is the weakest", and being a black guy, that should mean something. :-)

The pic looks a lot lower so hopefully the list has a set of coilovers somewhere in there preferably a set of specially tuned multimatics.

That's highly subjective. I've seen vid where the rear end of the M235i can be somewhat snappy but on the other hand the GT seems very progressive. We still don't know how two cars react to back road bumps but I do know the Mustang guys paid a lot of attention tuning the car. Ultimately the...

Sorry I was not referring to straight line speed, but the GT should have an edge in cornering speed.

The 2015 GT is already faster than the M235i by a wide margin so I am not sure why there is a need to upgrade the suspension.

I think the 2015 GT even with no PP will be quite a bit faster than the M235i and with the PP will be very close to the M4. The old 2014 GT with the live axle around VIR is 3:08:6 while the M235i is 3:07:2 (but this was after changes to VIR track to make it faster). If the M235i is only as...

The Boss LS at VIR is 3:02.8. The M4 time is 3:00.7 but the M4 time was done after VIR had some minor track works which might give about .5sec per lap.

The ZL1 and GT500 were tested on the same day with same driver so at least most of the variables are similar, but there could be other factors other than track/driver. The time for GT500 at Laguna Seca is 1.38.7 whereas the Boss LS is either 1.39.5 or 1.41.06 depending on who driving. So it's...

For reference, Car&Driver tested the ZL1 and GT500 at Grattan and according to the article, both had the same identical lap time although the results could be disputed as to who was driving, conditions, what else going on .... The Boss is about 1.5 - 2 sec. off of the GT500, so if the 2015...

Well, looks like Dave's biggest test so far :-).

I am in Southern California/Los Angeles area, where can I see the Mustang? Is there a dealer nearby that may have one for demo purposes? Thanks.

2nd that. Based on the posts here it seems like these Mustangs are popping up everywhere, but here in SoCal where I can see one.

People have crossed oceans, armies marched across great plains, and here we modern people trying to post pictures online :-).

You meant the Irag war and not the war for independence right? :D Part of the charm of UK Top Gear is they make fun of everyone including the Germans and even their own government. It's an entertaining show above all. Cars are sometimes secondary. You sort of watch it for laugh and shouldn't...

I think most modern autos have some sort of locking mechanism to improve fuel mileage, but still I don't think they are fast enough for transient conditions. I am sure the AMG's auto is better than most but probably still not fast enough for constant shifting during acceleration and...
