After spending the last 2 months traveling for work where I had to pack up 2 suitcases and various other stuff I have to say I'd would much rather sacrifice rear seat space and get more trunk room. The back seat is already practically useless for adults, so small that if I'm going somewhere...
I noticed that too back when the spy shots first started rolling out, looks like a few inches less space between the rear of the door and the rear wheel well.
F**K ethics. Ford has been dangling this in front of our faces for over a year now. A picture being "leaked" or just simply released by Ford isn't going to do anything except add fuel to the desires of car enthusiasts and add more potential customers to the "I want one" list, this whole...
Even though it's a major departure from the predecessor I absolutely love it. The aggressive styling pushes it farther into the world sports cars category which is probably where it's trying to be, but for way less money. It makes me hope I'll still like the Mustang in 2015 even if it's a...
Of course you still have people who buy a car based simply on looks alone (I knew a girl in the 90's who bought a teal green escort just because of the color) but with the rumors that the eco4 will cost more than the v6, will those type of buyers be willing to spend the little extra for the...
Good point, competition will be tough for a 4 cylinder Mustang. There are actually lots of nice looking exciting cars offering decent power from 4 cylinders. If someone is shopping for a sporty 4 banger will they cross shop a BRZ and a Mustang? I am about as Mustang loyal as it gets but I...
It's getting harder to tell the v8 from the GT these days. Here is a Cali special 5.0 and a MCA V6. Look almost identical except for the 5.0 badge on the side.
Yeah I forgot about that part. A friend who has a 3 series was telling me how he went in for some recall work and while there they wanted to do his oil change, radiator service and new belts........price tag $700+. If I recall the oil change alone at the BMW dealer was over $200.
I do agree with you on the price part. I don't think anybody is buying a V6 Mustang to save the planet, that's what the Toyota Pious is for. They buy the V6 because it's in their budget. I don't know why anybody would choose a V6 if they could easily afford a V8 (including the other expenses...
Does Ford Australia export the Falcon to other countries like GM Holden does the Commodore and Caprice? I don't know if the export of Holden is keeping GM afloat but maybe if Ford had done the same it could have bought them more time.
Yesterday I was watching an old Top Gear Australia...
I was at the local BMW place last week looking at a used X5 and noticed a shiny new M3 on the showroom so popped in to take a look. While looking at the $70000 sticker I realized what a joke it is. Are you really getting $20000 more car buying a M3 over a Mustang? Sure the BMW has nicer...
When I got my first Mustang nearly 25 years ago it had a V8, as did a lot of cars in 1989. Back 30-40 years ago a V8 the norm, now four and six cylinder engines are. Now some 4 cylinder engines are making way more power than some of the V8s from just 10 years ago. I love the sound of a V8 and...
