I will take Savagegeese over any self-proclaimed internet expert. Your car is probably 85% if not more standard mustang or do you have the special Shelby wiring and hoses too? Did you see those on your rack? Oh and now mine is just a standard GT again despite having quite a few of your vaunted...
Like I said, don't watch Savagegeese for your own sanity, because that is exactly what they do...put it on a rack and go over the car in detail. You will not like what you hear-rental car parts on your beloved Shelby. If you really think they put different general parts on your car you are...
308. Lol. You and some of the other Shelby die hards would do well to not watch a Savage Geese video when they start talking the underbelly/innards of your cars. They have some special Shelby parts for sure but for the most part they are the same "rental" car class as the lowly Mach 1s, GTs, and...
I am headed to the 60th event at Barber next month...I imagine that is where they will show the next performance variant whether it is Cobra, Boss, DH something or another, but I don't think it will wear Shelby at all.
It honestly seems a bit disingenuous at this point as Shelby didn't make the S550 "Shelby" cars. It was Ford Performance and the hand built engine done at the FP Romeo plant which is even shut down now. It was just a licensed name. Even dropping your car off at Shelby to get a real Shelby...
I have the opportunity to run Talladega again for Memorial Day with our mustang club-I hope to be able to do it this year. Two guys who did it last year with their 350s said a bunch of warning lights illuminated on the dash while they drove the banks but then went back off on the way home. Is...
Ford would lose my purchase if something happened to my Mach 1. I would only want the DH and that is too much coin for what it is, and they made too many missteps on design. I would buy a new C8 at this point.
I am with you...I prefer the blade spoiler or no spoiler. I understand the utility of the larger wings on track but I think they look kind of ridiculous just driving around. It was part of my decision in not going HP.
I need to get them to do the TSB...mine isn't terrible but I think it would probably improve it on normal. Ford needs to address this problem (including all of the pending class action cases) by doing a refresh of all S550 10 speeds with the S650 programming which apparently is much better. I...
Wife has the 22 Kia Telluride...objectively the nicest car in our house...fit and finish far beyond Mustang and has all the bells and whistles. Kid has a 17 Subaru Outback. Finally, I have my beater 18 Nissan Versa...cheapest new car around...has crank windows lol but it is paid off and perfect...
My dealer has offered me the same several times...trade in the M1 and get a DH. No dice for me even though I am still paying off my loan. I am thankful Ford appears to be very serious about keeping the V8 going for some time. Kudos on that, but they would have to do an interior refresh and ditch...
Really nice to see people holding onto these cars and enjoying them years in. April 2024 will be 3 with my Mach 1 currently at 27K on it...no intention of selling/trading for a long time (knock on wood).
AT. No clue really. normally I see 4.6 but one day (fall weather), I must have really done a great job of smoothly getting into the accelerator as not to wheel spin much if at all and saw the better time. I did have recently replaced front tires...not sure if that played into it but my rear...
No way I would pay a ADM for a DH. If something happened to my M1 where I needed a new car, I am looking for lightly used 22 GT500 or a C8 for that amount of $.
I have no intention of trading my Mach 1. The C8 thing is purely to get a mid-engine sports car...I grew up with Countach's on the wall so an attainable car like that is a draw. I still would get a C8 over a DH though. I would also be open to a gently used 22 GT500 in Code Orange but those seem...
