Lots of rules and regulations already mentioned in this thread. Plus if you buy the car through a base dealer you technically have to own the vehicle for 10 years before being authorized to sell it to a local national. This probably ensures that the depreciation basically nullifies the potential...

Like it or not the car is becoming another device for people and as such consumers are expecting their vehicles to do more and be fully integrated to their mobile devices. I like this direction and have been in love with Tesla's screen that keeps the cockpit clean as well as the digital...

Isn't it funny how we expect this from most of the devices we use in our life but for some reason cars have remained largely held back? I think companies will have to face the music that is being developed in a post-iPhone/smartphone world. The landscape is changing and cars are becoming another...

It's not Ford. I was told of a recent rule that all companies are no longer allowed to post "official" times from the ring. I'm not sure why, perhaps too many tourists coming to try and make similar times and end up crashing? I live maybe about an hour away from the ring, before I moved I was...

Well let's hope so. I am still about a year out before eventual purchase but I am strongly considering a used 2016 when ready to buy. Having CarPlay would be icing on the cake for me but I'm not above a work around either :D Unfortunately the Camaro has the upper hand with a less cluttered...

Hi Whitney, Thanks for taking the time to respond to crazy fanboys on an internet forum! In all seriousness though I do hope that Ford is working on this and realizes how serious this option is for many buyers and potential buyers. I am not familiar with the costs involved but as a...

Looks bad guys, I have to say I'm very disappointed in Ford at this point and this may affect my eventual purchase. No CarPlay for 2016 Fords http://www.macrumors.com/2015/12/01/2016-carplay-vehicles-list-us-models/

This would all depend on where you live and what the allowed decibel rating is wouldn't it? I've seen polizei checking motorbikes for loudness, not sure how often they do it for cars.

It's certainly more conservative in nature which is not bad. I really like the Model S design but it clearly is a different car for a different purpose when held up against something like a Mustang. I hope they succeed with their affordable model plan in the coming years. Mustangs aren't...

I always encourage people to learn a bit of German while they are stationed here because these situations happen so often but in all honestly I doubt it would make a difference. Still, it never hurts to have a bit of firepower on your side. I know it's just a matter of time before dumbass hits...

Sorry about this man, really shitty but typical when German police deal with Americans. I am surprised they looked at your video at all as from what I understand about German traffic law if you were to go before a court this footage would not be used as evidence. This goes for all dashcam...

Thanks internet person. Time for my least favorite part about learning, independent research.

Thanks for all the insight into the low/high grade gas debate! The carbon deposits you speak of due to using premium fuel and slower burn caused by it, how long would it take these deposits to have a negative effect on an engine? 5 years? 10 years? Difficult to say? I am genuinely curious!

I know there is a big stink about lower grade gasoline but I would never even consider anything lower than a premium. I tried lower grade fuel on my Saab and it absolutely hated it. I could feel the motor struggling and at the next fill-up I put in premium and the whole car woke up. Gas is...

I'm living abroad and will be purchasing an American spec vehicle. You are correct that the euro models come with the performance package upgrades minus the pressure windows in the center console. I see both sides of the argument but at the end of the day it is indeed a sports car and will...

I know I know. If I wanted practical and efficient I would buy an Audi or BMW but they lack any actual character to me which is why I am leaning on a Mustang so heavily. Worse case scenario I keep my Saab as my beater and treat my future Mustang as a weekend warrior. Either way I win by...

Awesome, thanks for your input. Looks like it's not TOO much of a difference. I'm always paranoid due to the altitude here where I am. I notice a drastic change in how efficient my engine is when I travel to lower elevations for example in my current car. I know lots of people do not care...

I'm considering the Performance Package on my future purchase but it looks like there is some negative effects on overall MPG compared to the standard gear ratios. can somebody who doesn't drive in a city chime in with MPG numbers? My daily commute is typically over 50 MPh (sometimes 70 with no...

I don't feel that's the case at all. It's just business and Ford is looking to save costs wherever it can as exporting is expensive. Think of it as them testing the water. If they decide that it's worth it the can begin producing the cars overseas in their factories that are already established.

What an original and well articulated thought. Your contribution to the content of this thread will be tough to top. That being said.... I think Ford managed to maintain their scope for Mustang while making this car. There is a lot of thought that went into it and it's always easy to say...
