I'd take a V6 over an ecoboost any day of the week based off of not needing premium and actually sounding decent with a custom exhaust. Mine been a reliable and has treated me well. That said, there's a reason I immediately started looking into trading up towards a V8 car after renting a GT for...

Take a look at this thread: https://www.mustang6g.com/forums/threads/how-i-improved-the-b-o-sound-quality-for-free.141052/ Then if the sound still isn't good enough for you, you can replace the sub: https://www.mustang6g.com/forums/threads/b-o-10-sub-replacement-guide.148813/ Then if that...

Hah I wish that would work! They told me payment in full or no delivery.

Thanks for the info. I actually already have an appointment set up and have the final amount from them — but the link they sent me to upload a scan of my license didn't work and they didn't include a recipient address on the wire info. If they don't answer me then I'm just going to show up with...

I had the same thought — basically they won't let you have the car until you pay in full and then sign for it. But I have enough emails to show a transaction so I should have plenty of recourse here. It's looking like I'm going to have to have a certified check issued anyway though because...

How long did it take you to take delivery? I've never bought a new car from a dealership and I was making plans with a friend in the area — so not sure how long it will take lol. Now if only Chapman could be responsive in getting me wiring info then I could stop sweating bullets about being...

Nah I didn't finance. Paying cash. I plan on keeping this car for a long time unless the S650 refresh down the road makes this car obsolete or someone offers me way over market value for it for whatever reason. Plus I don't like being in debt, lol.

I have to say that I'm not too thrilled with Chapman's level of communication. Emailed them 3 times over the last 24 hours to confirm/upload a couple final small details so I can send the payment and no answer from anyone. Guess I'm going to have to start harassing them by phone next if I don't...

Oh these are just the pictures they sent me. Still in the process of doing paperwork etc but that shit is all coming off before I take delivery LOL

I'm off to pick my new ride up this weekend! So excited!

It's not riding on the CD6 platform. It's an updated S550 chassis.

Yeah I figure it's prob best to wait until the inevitable mid-cycle refresh when they do more worthwhile stuff to it. The difference between 2015s and 2018s+ is much more notable than people give it credit for between the tech and engine feel imo, and I imagine the S650 will be similar in that

Glad your wait is almost over! Post some pics when you get it. If it makes you feel any better on the travel timing, I think most people have had to wait at least a couple weeks after delivery to pick up the car anyway. Seems like dealers in general are super backlogged with getting paperwork...

I'm interested to see what it looks like. I'm kind of getting the feeling that it's not going to be a huge improvement over the S550 on the interior end — likely just a tech update with the same quality materials as current-gen. Is it bad that I'm hoping it's not a huge improvement so I feel...

I finally got contacted by Chapman tonight regarding payment etc. Just waiting on the final info so I can give a down payment and then hopefully get an appointment scheduled. Just another 2-3 weeks to go and it will hopefully be mine 🤞 Thank both you and @JSracing for looking. They probably...

I hate to ask, but did you happen to see an Eruption Green Mach 1 on the lot? 😁 From what I've gathered, I get the sense Chapman is kind of overwhelmed with the amount of work they have and are trying to catch up. I still haven't heard from them on whether my car is even on the lot. Ford's...

Yeah that's about what I figured. I think either would look good, but the GT500 hood just edges it out a bit for me. I'd be happy with either though. I'm probably not going to bother with exterior mods (unless decals get damaged somehow, in which case they will be coming off). If I spend money...

How much do you think it costs to have the shaker installed vs the GT500 hood, assuming you have decals cut to fit etc? I know the hood and shaker each cost like $1,500ish last I checked, but no idea what installation would run. I like the look of both but I'd probably also vote GT500 hood—it...

It looks like a solid buy but nothing about the Type R has really ever excited me much if I'm honest.

Yeah that's more than fair. I just wish they were a little more communicative than "don't call us, we'll call you" considering I need to schedule a flight/transportation, etc The wait is almost over at this point, I'm just getting antsy knowing it's either pick it up in either 3 days or 2-3...
