JETSOLVER

I don't see why not. SVT did Mystic, Mystichrome, and almost the gold Mystic/chrome and if ever there was complicated paint, that stuff was it. Ten years from now a stripe delete GT350R in Liquid Blue will command the same repect as it did Monday.

Separately, can someone tell me how diesel engines fit in with CAFE, and is the EPA the problem, or does Barry just not have gasoline in him?

This is the reason I came to the website, as this is the second time this very afternoon I read this. http://www.themustangnews.com/content/2015/01/ecoboosted-future-ford-performance/ My heart is getting a workout this early week, between yesterdays display of my kind of Ford Blue, and the knowledge that the idea of no more 8 cyl engines has been put back a few times now. As a kid, I recall looking at our 64 Galaxie 500XL Fastback with its crate 427 and Father's Day dual Holley 4's during our 1977 Family vacation down the Pacific Coast highway pulling a travel trailer from Alaska to Mexico and wondering if I would even get to buy a new V8. The Mustang almost died its first death, and the second was even worse...I wrote one of those letters re the Probe, and even as I recommended (and sort of co drove there for a while) a Probe GT, I knew that wasn't long for the world either. The idea that people are seriously put out in 2015 that our sacred internal combustion monster is a dinosaur is a bit much, but then, recently as a species we haven't been too forward looking. Performance is open to EVERYTHING that makes the experience better. For some, it is apparently really ugly office chairs in a hardwood floor Benz, for others it will be super hybrid pocket rockets. I wouldn't have believed in 77 that I would have already had a 650HP daily driver 97 SVT Cobra (traded from a 94GT), nor looking real hard at the GT350R now. That said, a spokesperson for us along the lines of Heston's "cold dead throttle foot" might stave this off another few years. Figure Leno will take the gig? One last clutch drop run throught the gears everyone?

Interesting as we just drove our new to us 2010 SEL for the first time yest. Living in the pretty far north has taught me a few things about snow and all season tyres, and driving my then 500+ HP Cobra in the winter taught me a few things about decent skins for each season. I fell in lust with the Dunlop Wintersport M2's on the snake, and things have moved on since then. Pretty sure this is this falls major purchase... UK winter tyre guide I had the last generation M3 winter sports on my Cayman, and I am pretty sure the next generation will be worth the price. They are almost a full up all season, and if you can live with the wear making these only a two or three year (season) proposition, worth a long look. I am used to changing rims for summer and winter, and even everyday driving vs. track days, but the very idea of a usable all season has me wondering if that road out to the farm could be tamed in March in northern Alberta...

I don't follow as closely as I used to, but how does "It is widely believed that the next generation Mustang will be based on an new smaller, global platform using an independent rear suspension and will be sold in more parts of the world including the UK, Japan and Australia." Co-exist with this? Autoweek/AutoAlliance Either way, I have to admit the Boss has grown on me (minus the dopey exhaust bling), and one never knows...

Remembering the first time I cracked the owners supplement in my 97 Cobra, and looking back on that original bulletproof Teksid dancing machine; the one that never had to be overt; Yes. Performance, Substance, Value and Exclusivity. I don't see this car as the moral or physical embodiment of that. It seems overwrought, and the mere fact that it comes in two flavours is mighty cynical after what SVT originally tried to do.

Wish it were so. Read yesterday in the Ford material that there was insignificant improvement. The reason they left it on was to milk something for the aftermarket (is the Stang a $Bil a year yet?). To me, SVT fan as I am, this is damn cynical to take a name that was literally built by taking a seriously deep breathing small block race engine and trying to build enough to go racing with. My take, Ford achieved more before they gave SVT to $helby. To me, this car is a step back from the effort SVT could have, and should have. I fear that this is closer to a sticker job than it ought. I also mea culpa that SVT being killed P.O.d many of the people who might consider shelling out for a Boss. But they won't cover the streets the way the SVT Cobra's did, and they sure won't rule them like the Termi's did. Sorry Ford, I have blue blood in my veins, but this, ^ , is not my idea of a Boss, let alone THE BOSS. (And I really, really, really wish that taking weight out would be partially returned in that missing control blade rear as the Aussies have...THAT in this I would pay for, with cash!)

My link The tide has turned, wonder if it's red, or out...? and that Infiniti Essence sure reminds me of a Cobra Coupe...all shiny and full of good GT bits... pics to follow, the newest forum is, er, difficult...

Bit late, but yea, mine was done by WMS, before we tried to figure the Aston Stang... hmm, "for reference..." hat intake before

Thanks! I had one as a boy, grew to admire as a lad, and bought a copy as a foolish young man. Still working on it... (edit) any and all pics of Gurney-Weslake headers will be taken at face value... priceless...

seeing as we still get a tonne of fliers, this looks an adequate solution...and they laid off 300 questioners to pay for them. (which I very much agree with...)

We have work to do that adds value to the human condition... or not. ish.

so many choices, so many posts to go...

A sample of the problem; Globe and Mail, opinion Somehow, this has been framed wrong. Electric isn't a panacea, it is a challenge. First to the top is the first to be challenged. Anyone? I wouldn't be caught dead in a Prius, but most folks think that is the "smart choice". compete or die Surely there is an option other than if or not? and don't call me Shirly...
