The chief engineer did say that the current V8 has 420hp so the new one should have quite a bit more power. My guess is probably 440hp but hopefully 450hp.

cool video. can't believe they are just going to crush that car. The V8 sounded good. I guess they still aren't allowed to show the engine.

I know there aren't many S550s out there, but that's my least favourite with the painted diffuser and the smaller screen in the center console. The lighting also makes it look pink! And yet it still looks great!

Still, good to see it and I can't wait until Jay gets to drive it :)


(and yeah, lets hope that one gets saved from the crusher!)



Oh, and also good to see Dave P's boyish grin when he says they have "plans for the 50th".................hope that puts a smile on your face too, John Z ;)

I'm assuming it didn't have power seats because it is a prototype?

It certainly does TT. Although I have been smiling with confidence re the 50th for a while now, I have been hoping for stuff to point to when people ask me if the S550 will be there. This helps a lot.

As an aside, an MCA insider has implied to me that I will be particularly pleased with Fords plans for the 3rd S550 that will be attending the 50th.

With a bit of wishful thinking, I am taking that to mean that an S550 will be accompanying the Pony Drive that I will be leading from Dearborn MI to Mustang OK.

If I crank up the wishful thinking thing too far, I can see myself driving it and that it will be a Magnetic GT Convertible.:D
