Trying not to sound too fanboyish on S650 as I do think there’s elements of it that missed the mark. BUT, Mustang, Corvette and CT5-V BW are the last American V8 cars standing and only two of them have a manual option (again, for those that want it). Would y’all rather Mustang just blow away like a fart in the wind?

Do I wish Ford put more effort/thought into some parts of the car? 100% I do, there are some very glaring opportunities for improvement. But they also could’ve said eff it, competition is out so we’re out too. At least they have an opportunity to fix a few things on a S650 refresh (assuming they follow precedent and have a refresh in a couple years).

Like or don’t like it, totally your opinion. Just stating the lens through which I’m viewing.
I am fine with it blowing away. I've never had a Mustang and will likely never buy another one.

I like the S650's allot. I got no complaints. The Bumper isn't really great looking, but it's not terrible either.

I like the interior changes. Some hate the screens, I sorta like them but don't need them.

I heard tuning was mostly locked out? That would annoy me. But stock for stock I had no complaints I would happily buy one if I wasnt locked into my current one for awhile.
I think the interior is horrible. Not like the 550 is much better, but i like the analogs in my car as i see mine as a throwback anyways. The 650 screens are dated already. They could have integrated them into the dash better but it looks like they're still stuck in 2018 and just trying to appease the soys.

I owned a convertable with a billet shift knob. You bet I had a sock for it.

Fair enough. You do own one of the best Mustangs ever made. And in the best color.

A few shades off from perfection… Ford Performance Blue…
!

I would never buy the S650 due to the two IPads posing as a dashboard. The Dark Horse does NOT need eyeliner… what were they thinking?

I wanted to up grade… but I can’t with the available option.
So I am happily keeping the Shelby, but bought a new toy:

FP Blue is a great color, but I’m a little biased towards Grabber Blue 😉

S650 has some miscues for sure, hopefully they clean it up with a refresh.

Congrats on the new Bronco, beautiful color! Can’t say I’ve seen many red Bronco’s around. Most of them around here are Cactus Gray, Eruption Green and the darker blue. I’ve seen a couple of those Tiffany Blue-type color ones too with the white wheels. I’m not well versed in the Broncos but it’s some kind of limited edition or something I think.

It's not a Shelby because it is a 650.
