Nope, that’s not the Sport mode I meant. Though I think it’s supposed to say “move the gear selector to the left”.

The car theoretically has a ‘sport’ mode, even if it only changes the throttle mapping. I don’t think it changes the engine output. I hardly ever use it unless I know I need to dart out into a gap in traffic. For that, it does its job with gusto.
Oooh, T6 with Polestar, I like very much. Mine is Caspian Blue. I had to drive 800+ miles round trip to grab the one I wanted.
How old is that chart? It still lists Suzuki, Saturn, Pontiac, Saab, Hummer, Mercury, and Scion....
If you are unfairly and dangerously imposing your will upon others for selfish reasons, then you are suspect. If you are advocating oppression or violence then you’re suspect.
But where do you draw the line? There’s an infinite spectrum of belief.
I think there needs to be a line drawn between not participating in discourse, and actively (and violently) preventing it. The first is reasonable, the second is reprehensible.
Then why do you keep citing comparisons of Mustangs on Perelli P-Zero tires and with upgraded suspensions?... those don’t come on any base Mustangs, not one.
LSD is standard on the Sport model you quoted ($33,570). If you’re talking base model z your price differential balloons to 5k. Sure the base model Ecoboost comes with LSD, its base price is $32,140 with all seasons... With summer tires $34,135... Why do you insist on using model base prices? Ford sure as hell…
I suppose I’d be most mad if I owned a 2007 Ford Shelby GT500. A car that cost $45,000, has 500 hp, a top speed of 185 and only beat the 2011 V6 by 1.5 seconds on a 4 mile track... or a 306 hp 2006 Nissan Track Edition 350z by the same measure. See how this transitive logic works?
If you can find a better, more direct comparison, please feel free to share. I ran with what was available.
No, you’re right, it’s not $5k less, it was $11k less, because the NISMO 370Z that barely beat it was $40k, vs. $28.7k for the V-6 Mustang with the Performance package. Boy, you sure got me there. Seems like a pyrrhic victory.
Wait, A Mustang GT can get to 60 and back to 0 in the time it takes a 370Z to get to 60? You should quit your job and become an automotive tester. You’re a fucking magician!
And a Mustang GT is better than a Z at literally everything for only 3 grand more, so even if performance metrics were the sole basis by which someone buys a car, the Z still shouldn’t be purchased.
Consumers share part of the blame. They wouldn’t behave in that manner if it wasn’t effective on a significant portion of the population.
The US is full of European cars? Since when? Not one of the top 30 best selling vehicles in the US is ‘European’. In fact, you don’t run into a European vehicle until you get to #49, the Jetta (at just under 15k units moved last month). After that, you don’t run into another one until you get to #62, the Merc C-Class…
The no-car.
The CCA on the Subaru OEM battery is kind of pathetic. After one winter, I replaced mine with a AGM battery with double the output, and never looked back.
