without sounding sexist I believe this toned down package with chrome accents will appeal more to a female audience (yes females do drive Mustangs) which may have been the intent of the Ford marketing group. For those guys who like it no disrespect intended.
agreed heat is temporary on the street once the a/c cools things down. But on the track you run with windows down and typically no a/c. So starting in a hot car made worse by the black color was my only point. Don't get me wrong I've owned four black cars and love the color it just doesn't work...
also love black and it looks absolutely sinister BUT! I will not never own another one. Impossible to keep clean, every micro scratch is visible, and if you plan on tracking the car as I do summer track days can be hot and you will just bake in a black car! Every time I see a new color/stripe...
In the 2+ years I have owned my 13' Grabber Blue Boss 302 I've never received a wave from another Mustang driver. Don't get me wrong the car does receive it's share of attention and have had several people pull up next to me at traffic lights and ask me to rev it up! (Corsa Extreme & baffles...
the more I see of the Avalanche the less I like it, stripes or no stripes. It's just way to dull and looks unfinished. Now for the black w/red accent stripes! After owning four black cars I promised myself never again but that just looks sick! Just gotta keep that California Duster in the trunk...
its definitely different if that's what you're looking for but IMO unfortunately not in a good way. Very odd color and might look better with black stripes and roof but it's just not for me. With so many great paint color options not sure what Ford was thinking with this??
two car colors I have owned that showed absolutely NO dust was my 2011 STi in Satin White Pearl (I think the case with most white cars) and my current 013 Boss 302 in Grabber Blue. When it comes to keeping a car looking clean dark colors are a love/hate relationship for sure. That's why when it...
the unit is wired into the brake and clutch and initiates a rev match only when the the brake and clutch are depressed simultaneously as when braking and downshifting. The unit will not rev match if the brake only or clutch only are depressed. As the duration and timing of the rev match are...
I would suggest contacting Auto-Blip and asking about the S550. The unit hooks into the drive by wire system so should not be a problem. Once installed it's a very easy calibration and the duration & timing of the rev match is completely adjustable to your driving style. The unit can also be...
If that's true let Ford work out all the bugs on the "limited" run of 2015's and I'll wait for a full production 2016! By the time the 2015's are being delivered you'll be able to order a 2016. Not sure who among us would sign up for that but to each his/her own!
so if a limited run of 2015s does happen and assuming Ford starts taking orders in May for the standard 2016 Mustang who would want a 2015?? So lets say I can order a 2015 GT350 within the next few weeks and then 4 weeks later I can order a 2016. Does that make any sense?? I know its all...
production schedule for the 2016 Mustang was just posted per the following:
7/31/15 -15MY Job Last Date
5/11/15 -16MY Order Bank Open Date
6/11/15 -16MY Scheduling Begins
8/03/15 -16MY Job #1 Date
So if 2016 Mustang "Order Blank Open Date" is 5/11 will Ford start taking orders for the...
A base GT is @ $ 33K so I agree just under $ 50K sounds about right for a base GT350. $ 15-17K premium should more than cover the adders. Fully optioned a GT can approach $ 46K and so the GT 350 at just over $ 60K also sounds about right. Let's not forget what Jamal Hameedi said that when asked...
we always seem to forget performance numbers from the muscle car era are just not competitive with 45+ years of advancement in automotive technology. The 1970 Boss was "fast" for it's time; 0-60; 6.9 sec, 1/4 mi. 14.6 @ 98 MPH but many family sedans will beat that today. Also when comparing...
So disappointed this color will not be offered!! I was under the impression this was Avalanche Gray but that's not the case. IMHO Magnetic is to dark, Avalanche looks to much like a primer, and this medium silver/gray would have nailed it for me. So now after much agonizing I'm going with TY.
make mine T-Yellow, black roof, black stripes (undecided on white or red accent stripe), track pack. My first color choice was gray/silver w/black stripes, black roof as shown in early Ford vid. promotion. I was under the impression that color was "Avalanche" Gray. But appears it's more of a...
