For ‘15 to ‘17 S550 GT owners; direct injection, I think, is not something better, it is just something different. If food on your table depends upon winning drag races, then you want DI. I prefer the EFI 5.0 coyotes. EFI shoots the fuel in front of the valves. DI shoots behind the valves. Think...

GT5.0 gets a thanks for finding this data. 3,379 Camaro units sold in August. Not strong sales. Assuming it is accurate, there is no buzz for C6G. It has to be frustrating for GM. They use a great Caddy ATS sub frame, magnashocks, add Corvette power, sport sculpted C5G body motif and should...

So true, I am so backed into a corner i own two.

I suspected Mustang would see a good month in August. The 2019 Bullitt roll out caught a lot of press attention. NYT, WSJ, MSN all did stories, they were not paid ads. Chad McQueen got press time. The Bullitt wakes up the echoes of what we like about cars. I don't need 460 HP, but I want one of...

How cool is this? Anybody still knocking the front end refresh?

I agree with your message. I am not critical of special order. I have special ordered two Crown Vics and one Ranger. Why did I special order? Color (int/ext), options, packages, etc. Same reason as yours. Autos are expensive, it should be the buyer's choice. Here is what i said that sent the...

When I purchased my 2007 GT in the midst of the S197 craze, there were 100 Mustangs in what Sunset Ford called the 'corral.' Walking the lot and cutting one out of the herd was a blast. What is so special about 'special order' ? I got to talk to five other guys there buying also. I got to...

Damn nice car, just smoking.

Your point is well taken, Marty should pull or black out name, address and finance company. However, there is nothing here linked to a bank account, or a social security number. It is unlikely a bad party will try to make a car payment for Marty. When I closed on my home and had the phone...

Martin, Congratulations on your purchase. You have a great car and that is a straight compliment. Nothing else really matters. I assume the car delivered flaw free and every buyer deserves that. We will kill the thread because all is well. Edco

What did you buy? What are the options?

I live in Missouri. I signed a pre-printed sales contract. The dealer was Dave Sinclair Ford, STL, MO. What dealer did you buy from? What did you buy? Dealers have discretion. Read the contract. I am going to speculate that I have purchased at least as many new Fords as you have. And you don't...

Dear Silver Bullitt, In my state, "but that's all total BS" is not a legal term. Read the contract. Read what you sign. Read all the fine print front and back. In transit damage is covered in print. Should + but that's all total BS is not stated. It is your car. It is your order. It is your...

""Any deposit on a car should be 100% refundable and subject to final approval once the car arrives. I always add that tidbit on the sales contract." "should" is something you write I fully agree with. However, read the contract. There is no use of the word should. It is your car. You take it...

I have factory ordered a Crown Vic and Ranger in decades past. Two bad outcomes. Try to avoid it if you can. Biggest problem is the car is yours when it goes on the rail carrier at the plant. If a kid in Ohio throws a rock at the train and your car gets damaged it is your car! You have to take...

Ford historically starts US auto trends and GM is a counter play. The reason. Top management. GM is a crowded board at the top. Ford is one guy with a reserved parking place in Detroit at the top. I think the Camaro 6G design suffers from too many cooks. I see all kinds of Mustang 6G influences...

I was banned too! Pointed out the Gen5 Camaro sales lead over S197 Mustang was only 8%, and against the second half of the long in the tooth solid rear axle S197 production. Goodbye edco. I do see mostly Dodge commercials on TV. But more Charger than Challenger. Camaro got all kinds of...

Carol Shelby 1960's quote: "Horsepower sells cars, torque wins races." Dodge is proving HP sells cars. Chevy is proving HP does not sell cars. Ford is proving what? good design/engineering sells cars? Anyway the Camaro sales data was not worth the 90 days wait for Chevy fans. It was a good...
