823. Don't ask me where I got that figure, but I wouldn't be surprised if it made 823 at the flywheel. The rated power will, of course, be much lower.

Am I the only one that would be more excited if the puzzle revealed how much it weighs?

Any insights on how much the damn thing weighs?!

Kill me now.

Just took a second look. Call me crazy, but I think you may be right.

Key word is based. Not a single part on the S7 motor was actually used in a 351 Windsor. If ford swapped out most of the parts on the 7.3, it could be a higher performance engine, but it being a motor that isn't even in production yet, and the 351 Windsor having several decades of factory and...

No Joke. People keep talking about the 7.3L as if it is a performance option. It is not. It likely isn't capable of the performance of the Coyote. That said, the 5.0L probably has another 60-75hp of emissions certified potential in it, but like I said in a previous post, were likely to just get...

Fake news. They started building CUV's 10 years ago. Up until this point they have continued to build traditional cars as well. Now they aren't building traditional cars. One wasn't rebadged into another. Both were built for several years and now one isn't.

That's exactly what it was. As a matter of fact, a friend of mine has a restored 1969 GT, which he believed was a Mach 1 for about 25 years. He recently discovered that it was actually a GT with all of the options from the Mach 1. Essentially, the only difference between his car and a mach one...

Agreed. If I were managing things, it would make sense to just drop the PP2 from the GT, package everything from the PP2 with this bodywork, use the bullit intake and tuning and just release it as a new SE; Pretty much zero development/Tooling cost involved while increasing profit margins. I'm...

I find it highly unlikely that this car has anything other than a 5.0L Coyote in it. If there was a new powertrain in there, the car would be frankensteined with the usual sensor arrays and data acquisition systems. The new splitter, flared fenders, and spoiler could suggest a new PP, but I...

Do we know how much this thing weighs yet?

Fair enough, but what I'm seeing looks nothing like Ace's render.

Well, to be fair, it's a horribly inaccurate rendering. Just a few quick glances at it and the camo'ed shot makes it fairly obvious that the front end looks nothing like that. Not really sure why this was put on the front page. Kinda embarrassing for M6G to be honest.

Assuming per wheel fwd motor/generators, typical peaks are +35hp and +40lbft per motor on mid-range units currently. The motors are quite a bit more powerful than that, but peaking at different rpms than ICEs, so the impact is quite a bit more significant than those figures suggest. Either way...

If this was the hybrid, the front end would not be that well put together. Packaging of the motor/generators is likely far from production ready, and would require some modifications to the suspension, spindle, and brake assemblies that would be either fairly obvious or (more likely) entirely...

I guess it's a win for Ford if enough people like it, but I think it's ugly as sin.

Sorry, but other than a fully optioned GT350, I have yet to see a S550 that meets this description.

None of this does anything to fix that god-awful ugly front end. Ford has given me zero reason to buy this over an aftermarket supercharged 2018 GT with supporting suspension, wheels, and tires.
