Looks nice. I get the issue with where the white is; however, how many of these cars are going to get many miles on them to wear out the seats anyway?

Not enough unfortunately, most will end up as paperweights :nono::bawl:

Not sure if this is the same one news articles are talking about today, because the ones they post have been blocked by YouTube for Copyright.

^ you are kidding, right?

Definitely not.

There's been so much talk about this new engine, and comparing it to the Ferrari 4.5L in the 458

One couldn't help but expect numbers for Ford's 5.2 to be higher than Ferrari's 4.5 which puts out 570 hp

Seeing it advertised now at only 526hp, it's kind of a letdown

5.2 has a MUCH broader power band with much more usable torque (at 25% of the price :D)

The VooDoo motor has much more torque compared to the Ferrari's though. You also have to consider, Ferrari is close to bleeding edge when they are building their motors, especially when it comes to the kind of materials used. It may not be space age stuff, but if Ford were to use the same materials for the sake of getting 600hp+ N/A, they wouldn't be able to sell it for 60k and less.

This is a Ford and it is still a mustang, they are awesome numbers for what it is, if you wanted a 100k mustang then that would not be a mustang ever again.
