I think people also confuse twin turbo with sequential turbos...

I go to the Portland show just to see the cars "in the flesh"...

There's only so much you can get from social media and the internet..sometimes you gotta see it in person and touch it.

I go to the same one for the same reason... Saw my first S550 there the year it was massively icy, was great because the show was completely devoid of attendees, front row seat for everything!

seriously? look at the front grills and foglights. nearly the same... get some glasses lol.

If you would mistake those 2 cars for each other, you need glasses... A vague similarity in the grill shape, but hood, headlights, well, everything else is totally different.

I go to the charity preview usually...

less people
free food
...and a tax deduction!

I agree. The "oh it looks like" narrative is a little silly. It says more about the manufacturers making historically undesirable cars look sportier. They are all going to have a grill, 4 wheels, and a vaguely similar shape

GT500 will have an EcoBeast 5.2 CPC twin turbo & 10-speed automatic.

They trademarked the name for a reason. They need something "beasty" to contend with the HELLCAT.

Cobra would suffice

Ecobeast......the only thing that gives me hope that, one day, we might see a turbo charged V8 from Ford

Now.....it's almost a week since those spy shots were posted. I'm sure I'm not the only one want to see some new ones :headbonk:

I'm on the edge of my seat.


As more time goes by, I'm trying to figure out how I might rearrange my finances to find room for a GT350...I am REALLY hoping for some nice improvements from the base GT to save me from forcing me to reevaluate my retirement plan.

Judging by some of the comments in the GT350 section, you may not need to rush into ordering a GT350, as rumours there suggest it might be around for a few years yet!

That's would make a considerable percentage of the population think it's a performance package. Most people have little to no understanding of engineering principles like efficiency. They rely on marketers to make them feel like they're making the right decisions. It's just the nature of society.

Wish they would use "TwinForce" from the MKR concept

I know it, its just sad. I liked the early 90s 300zxtt but i couldnt imagine it having as much appeal being called economy lol.
