Today is the first day here in NW Fl to have real "cold" air. AIT's averaging in the 50's, ambient was around 40 this morning, what a fast trip to the gym lol

I bought my car in march but done a bunch of work to it but average AIT'S in the 120's ish, so while ive appreciated the car and its quick, today made me a believer. The real cold air has made a huge difference and I'd almost guess how the car would run on e85. Even the high rpm sound is much more aggressive.

The only downer is, obviously cold pavement and traction is now an issue 1-3 gear lol Happy cold air day

We've seen teens overnight in MN this week. I had the Mustang out last weekend burning up the rest of the E85 to get it ready for winter storage, it was in the high 40s and zero humidity that day. The car flat out ripped.

Been in the 20’s overnight and 40’s during the day this week in suburban Chicago. Supposed to be 70 Friday thru Sunday, so I’m planning to ceramic coat my car while the weather is nice.

Every time we get into the 60s - 70s it's like, "Oh yeah, there it is!" The car just wants to rip it up. Our weather is in the 90s so much during the summer that it is a real treat when Fall hits.

Same here this summer was particularly thick and hot. We were triple digits in June and never got lower than 90s in the over night until about 3 weeks ago lol



This "cold snap" is unusual here this early but damn what a difference with 60 degree ait's and about zero humidity... well for here in the swamp

I'm a little further south than you in the Tampa area, was 59 when I got up this morning and 66 now. I love the cool weather we get and looking forward to being able to drive comfortable with the windows down for the next couple months (hopefully).

Around every 1000’ of DA is a 2.5-3% change in HP. We had 34°F yesterday morning. At around 8AM, the DA was at -1380’ here. Highest DA day I saw was in August at 3380’. That’s about a 11-12% increase in power yesterday morning over the highest day in August. :).

I live in NW FL as well and this cold weather is great for boost. My commute to work was a blast this morning. My tires hate me now. Haha
