The V6 wasn't even supposed to be a part of this chassis. The 2.3L EB is supposed to be the base motor but the rental car/fleet companies demanded the V6 for the "lower" maintenance costs associated with the N/A engine. As a result, your V6 gets very little in the way of options. I'd be willing to bet that the…

This. The V6 wasn't even supposed to be in this chassis but the Rental Car and fleet car companies wanted the V6 instead of the EB motors for the "lower" maintenance costs.

The answer is "yes". It's both. Mostly dark grey though.

If you've seen Guard in person it doesn't share any coloration with Dark Highlander Green used on the Bullitt Mustangs except for a slight greenish hue. DHG is significantly more green. Guard is a dark grey with a greenish hue to it in certain lights. It's an interesting color but it isn't DHG. I would LOVE to see…

Right, because the Mustang was a "Muscle Car" to begin with... The Mustang, the Camaro, and the Challenger were all Pony cars. The distinction is important, very, very, very important because a Pony car is: "An affordable, compact, highly styled car with a sporty performance-oriented image. Pony cars generally have…

It has to do with the brake sizes, not the swaybars. It's far more expensive to produce a spare wheel that will clear the 4 pot front brakes than it is to give you one of those "road side tire fixer" "Kits". Of course a tire fixer kit isn't going to save you from a total blow out though...

There were some small tweaks made for the 5.4L that stiffened up the front end of the car some. The A-Arm brace is the most noticeable when you get under a later car next to an earlier car but it adds maybe a pound of weight. The real changes were far more subtle. Changes were made to the thickness of the sheet…

Didn't the MN12 T-Bird also change in size (bigger) over the fox based ones? I wouldn't put a lot of faith into changing chassis that are substantially larger in size. Yes the S550 is wider but not in the same sense that the MN12 was to the Fox.

Correct, the car is larger, 70mm more track in the rear and some in the front as well. Wheel base (~107") is remaining the same but track is wider and the car is "lower" appearing as well.

Whoops! ;) Looks like all the pricing is there.

The EB PP isn't new nor shocking if you have been following the 6th Gen Mustang for a while. We know the EB PP will have 14" rotors and "fixed calipers" (Brembo's most likely or some Ford variant thereof) and we can assume by the previous PP/Track Pack cars, it will have stiffer springs, stiffer dampers, beefier…

The absence of the 2014 Mustang in this list is appalling... You cannot tell me this:

Sorry, I had to check to make sure I was still on Jalopnik, you know, that website about cars, and not on Gawker... Still confused as to why this is on Jalopnik...

As for this guy, I'm not going to comment because my response is probably a bit more jaded than most are comfortable reading. All I will say is that this…

My guilty pleasure extends upon my inner bias towards Mustangs. While the Fox bodies were not known for anything good except being relatively light weight and decently powerful and cheap as heck, I go even further into the abyss of Fox Body hell and chose the lowly 2.3L Lima fox bodies. Whether it is an SVO or a…

45 year anniversary badges indicate it's a 2009. Same badges on the side of my GT. The transmission is a 5 speed, Tremec TR3650 used with a hydraulic clutch in the 2005-2010 model years. The new GT's (2011+) use a Getrag MT82 6 speed with a different hydraulic clutch.

Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't the 4.6L 3V flow more air overall than the 4V did. I'm not sure why people think the 4V 4.6L is superior to the 3V. The 3V is cheaper overall, makes better low end torque and still revs to the moon and makes power all the way there. It doesn't take anything to get a 3V to dyno…

It would appear that a large portion of the conversation from a different (IE, not you) elitist snob saying that they are horrible handling cars, has been removed which makes context a bit messy now. The handling part was aimed at that person, not at you. I just figured I would spare the spamming and address it in…

A set of all snow tires works wonders for winter driving a V8 powered Mustang. So does a manual transmission. So does some common sense. The family comment is absurd as well, you can still fit a car seat in the rear, and children fit back there easily. An adult can sit back there too. I've done it and I'm 6'5",…

Why go to all the hassle of swapping in motors that were never in the car, a 2.3L Lima Turboed would make great power, be "Capri" like, and not require gobs and gobs of money spent shoehorning a non-standard motor into the framework it was never designed to fit in. The mod motors are huge in comparison, at least with…
