Figured this should go in here:

No figures for the diesel engine yet.
Since Guard is gone (leaving a vacancy for another shade of green) and we've already seen photo evidence that Ford was at least thinking about it, I'd say a Bullitt model is more likely.
Wow, it's pretty awesome how close they've remained when adjusted for inflation. That makes my 2016 GT barely $1000 more than a 2003 GT even though the 2016 has more of literally everything.
It sounds worse than it is. The 8-speed auto in those cars has very short gearing (1st is 4.71!). It's actually shorter overall than a manual which has a 3.70 rear end.
That is impressive. My bolt-on S550 traps the same but my best ET is only a 12.9. I have the same 235s and they're terrible but that auto seems to make up for them.

There's a full spec sheet at the bottom of the article.
edit: used too many characters in thread title, it should read 216 not 21 lol.
I hope the hybrid powertrain is an option for the V8s. I'm imagining a Coyote motor that comes with the GT350 (or similar) manifold from the get-go and revs to 7500+ RPM but has huge low-end torque from the electric motors. Nice fat powerband. That + 10-speed auto = big acceleration. Or just...
I had almost no credit history at the time so I was paying a 14% interest rate on a 4 year term through Navy Fed. So pretty bad lol. I've come a long way now thankfully
Coming back? We ARE in the golden years. Cars are so powerful nowadays that automakers are having to take other measures to make them faster because they're putting down more power than can be actually used in most situations. Some of them are even decent on gas in spite of that. We've never had...
Has anyone bought a pair of universal Borla S-type mufflers and had them welded in in place of the factory ones? How different would it sound compared to the Borla S-type axle back kit? I've always loved the way Borlas sound but $700+ for a simple rear section exhaust is just obscene.
For those of you who do this in this in their Mustangs - what's your secret? I can't seem to figure out how to pull it off without contorting my ankle in an impossible way. I've had two S197s and two New Edge Mustangs and the story has always been the same. The positioning of the gas and brake...
