Went down to the Tampa area a year or two ago and booked a Mustang convertible for the weekend just as a splurge. When we got there, the desk jockey asked if we wanted to upgrade to a brand new GT convertible they just got in. I couldn't say yes fast enough. It was a '17, but still fun as...
I think I'd have a talk with the dealership about those front tires. Either you put in some serious miles on the track over the weekend or your front end alignment is terrible.
I've rented two Mustangs in the past two years.
In Tampa last year, we got a black '17 GT vert premium with 20 miles on it. We put 400 miles on it in 3 days. The car was a blast and surprisingly cheap.
In LA this past December, we got an '18 Ecoboost premium coupe. I was impressed with...
I rented a '17 GT about a year ago and remember the HID's being good, if not great, compared to my Jeep Grand Cherokee headlights. I rented an '18 Ecoboost a month ago and the LED headlights were fantastic. I wasn't sure they were LED's, but figured because they were so bright and white. I'd...
That's fine and all, but the way they packaged them is ridiculous. Can't get the carbon interior with 401A. Can't get a memory driver's seat without getting all the electronic safety nannies. Can't get the mag shocks without the $4k performance pack. That shit is crazy.
Mammoth Mountain is in California, maybe he lives there? Many places in CA get tons of rain and snow. It's not all LA and San Diego.
And just because you don't 'need' them in VA doesn't mean it's a good idea to run summer tires when it's 35* and raining.
And the fact that it's been repeatedly called the most pure driving car since the BMW E30 M3.
Honestly, I'm more interested in the size of the car. I hate how big the Mustang is. It's like 4-5 inches longer than the 4 door M3. So if my wife told me tomorrow that she'd be cool with buying...
Got you all beat. I built a convertible with basically every option: 401A, PP, magride, active exhaust, safe and smart, etc. Everything except the shaker audio I think. $55,775. For a Mustang. The technology and engine are awesome, but I have a hard time paying that when I can get an M2 for...
I had my Jeep keyfob die on me a few times. I used the mechanical key to get in and the alarm went nuts. Apparently to start the push-button-only ignition, you use the butt end of the key fob and push the start button. There is an RFID chip in the fob that the jeep can read through the start...
After driving a vehicle with parking sensors front and rear, I don't think I'll buy another car without them. I parallel park a lot and they help a TON when trying to fit in a tight spot. But when the system is in basically everything now from econoboxes to hypercars, there is no reason not to...
Saw the truck posted above at the DC car show Friday. Looks great, very similar to the gray color on the new Tacomas and close to Stealth Grey.
If I'm not mistaken, they had a '17 Raptor in the same color about 40 feet away, maybe TopNotch got a picture of that one as well. Looks amazing...
I don't think it'll have anything to do with the PP Auto option. It has everything to do with the new 10 speed.
I put 400 miles on a rental auto 5.0 convertible last weekend and was not a fan of the shift strategy of the A6, even in sport or sport+. It either shifted too quickly into a...
Hilarious that one of the 'similar threads' at the bottom of this one is an ad for the Ford Racing Borla exhaust with GT350 quad-tip valence for Ecoboost and GT Mustangs. :D
I'd be totally fine with the 3.5EB in the Mustang, but I think this is the long term answer.
Like BMW and Mercedes and McLaren, develop a small displacement TT V8 and put it in all the performance cars. This is probably what they should have done with the Ford GT and Raptor, then people...
