o0n8 Posted January 14, 2019 Report Share Posted January 14, 2019 I thought car designers were going to start moving away from the giant audi like grill. Leave it to Ford to be about 20 years late Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted January 14, 2019 Report Share Posted January 14, 2019 Rumor is 4200lbs, it's ugly, and auto only. Old farts will love it, I hate it. BRB, 80k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeitgeist57 Posted January 14, 2019 Report Share Posted January 14, 2019 Man, 4200lbs...I know there's a honkin' blower under the hood, but carbon fiber whaaaa?? I thought my CTS-V was heavy at 3800lbs. Rumor is 4200lbs, it's ugly, and auto only. Old farts will love it, I hate it. BRB, 80k. Old farts with money are the ones buying this monster.

CRed05 Posted January 14, 2019 Report Share Posted January 14, 2019 Looks pretty good to me! Way better than the Supra. I thought car designers were going to start moving away from the giant audi like grill. Leave it to Ford to be about 20 years late I don't think Audi has any plans to move away from it. https://st.automobilemag.com/uploads/sites/11/2018/08/Audi-PB18-Electric-01.jpg That thing will suck up a small child.

2highpsi Posted January 14, 2019 Report Share Posted January 14, 2019 Expected tons of CR hate for DCT trans... not disappointed. I think it looks great. I'm also sure the car with the DCT will perform better in 99% of situations with 99.9% of drivers than any manual trans could. BUT I also don't think Mustang buyers care about the real world performance AS MUCH as they care about how fun it is to drive. This WILL be the most capable track weapon to ever wear a Mustang badge. It won't be the funnest one to drive. I'm eager to see how well it sells. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha. Yep. I wish Ford would have made the DCT an option. I have a feeling that it will handle everything, track wise, well. Ford also is claiming stock 1/4 times in the 10s. I'm interested to see how it performs when it comes out.....this fall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny story I have a handful of vehicles that are permanent saved searches on my auction sites. I’ll set different criteria and I’ll get notifications if anything matches. Well one day last year I get notification of a couple GTRs matching some criteria I set. One of the criteria was “red light/As-Is” I set this because I was hunting one for a project car, so blown motor or bad trans would have been great. I didn’t end up bidding on them, but I found it really odd that the seller was Ford Motor Company. When I look for the reason why they are listed as-is, I see an announcement that the body and unibody had been cut and put back together on both cars. Now I’m not saying that Ford bought them and tore them apart to get notes for the 2020 GT500.. but they didn’t buy them just to help Nissans sales figures.

Aaron Posted January 15, 2019 Report Share Posted January 15, 2019 Very cool. Ford bought some Ferrari 458 motors when designing the voodoo motor. Was it Acura bought Rahals 991 gt3 for nsx development I think? Cool stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manufacturers tear apart competitors stuff all the time, not really surprising to me. It may not always be to steal anything in particular, but sometimes to see how they did what they did and possibly improve upon it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caseyctsv Posted January 15, 2019 Report Share Posted January 15, 2019 While I would always prefer a manual, if you haven’t driven a car with a good dual clutch auto, you should before you form your opinion. I was one of the biggest haters on here when people were defending the DSG in Audi’s and similar set ups. Now that I own one, I appreciate the differences between it and a torque converter auto. They are way more engaging to drive. Clearly not manual transmission levels of engagement, but way better than a run of the mill auto.

kirks5oh Posted January 15, 2019 Report Share Posted January 15, 2019 I’ll wait a year and see how they perform. 4200lbs, if true, is certainly a bit disappointing no matter how fast it is. If it can hit 10.8’s and consistently trap 130+, I’ll likely buy one. Shocking to say that considering I can easily remember being amped about a car running 12’s from the factory trapping 110. You can still get a gt, gt350, and an eco boost with a manual, so let’s not all panic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
10phone2 Posted January 15, 2019 Report Share Posted January 15, 2019 http://i.imgur.com/DjiBNSq.jpg way too classy. Your missing the 20 inch rims, mismatching body parts, and tribal graphics that may have been cut from duck tape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
