The difference is all of those cars are lighter and have much nicer stuff wrapped around their engines (i.e., the rest of the car). My Mustang has 400+ hp, but I'd be hard-pressed to pay more than the $29k it cost me. I hear the high-end Tesla Model S has similar performance on the high-end model, and it cost over…

Crap... Does everybody use their calendars upside down in the future?

Aren't people like Tesla already working to address concerns like this with wireless charging technologies, etc.? In other words, this probably isn't news to anyone who's working on these kinds of cars. Basically, it sounds like we're just waiting for technology/costs to get there. Eventually, you'd build a house with…

All I can think of when I see this is a Ford Fusion stuck inside going "Killlllll.... meeeeeeee....."

I'm sure the "incompetent, unprepared, embarrassing" southerners will feel similarly about the "thick-skinned, capable, strong character, resourceful" northerners when they're freaking out over a category 1 hurricane.

Smaller air box being bad? Maybe. I won't pretend I'm an expert on how the airflow and all that works, but I can at least say that, on the current Mustangs, the air comes in from behind the grill in a small, narrow rectangular tube that seems like it would fit that new air box better. In other words, I wouldn't think…

I can see the value in getting most kinds of cars used, but I'll never buy a used Mustang (or similar kind of car). Why? Because I know what abuse I've done to mine, and it is low mileage (my 2012 GT has 7k miles, so I laughed at the one in the list) and looks like it is in great condition. No accidents, one owner,…

The rubber steering wheel and missing oil/battery gauges on my $30,000 2012 Mustang GT. My fingers actually have calluses from using the steering wheel. The best part is I think they got wise and started putting the nicer steering wheel in the same base model GT for 2013.

Interesting charts, but I would have loved to have seen something like a 5.0 Mustang from 1993 doing 225 hp and 300 lb-ft while a Coyote 5.0 in a 2013 Mustang does 420 hp and 390 lb-ft. That gives you a sense of 20 years of progress with comparable displacement.

My 2012 Mustang 5.0 does the same thing. Well, it is supposed to, but it was somehow partially disabled when I got the car with like 3 miles on the odometer. I would get some resistance when shifting into 2nd when the prompt displayed on the screen, but it wouldn't lock me out completely. Almost like the solenoid or…

Were they trying to re-create this BMW ad??

Thanks. I had to say something. I thought the comments people were leaving on the local news sites were bad. Now I'm reading through the comments on Jalopnik. Some of the people on here are sick and it almost makes me embarrassed to be associated with them by reading the same site. You all, and you know who you are,…

I knew the owner of the Lambo, Sam. He had a large garage full of nice cars like this. They were his and were obtained with his own money. Before you say something like "Oh, he should have never let a girl drive his car!", know that she had completed several driving and competitive racing courses, so she probably had…

Mine went from costing $30K to being valued at $24K after 10 months. Does this qualify as hardcore droppage?

I have had a 2010 GT (4.6L automatic) and now a 2012 GT (5.0L manual) and both get pretty terrible MPG if you go by what the computer tells you. This includes time sitting in traffic and in parking lots/garages. I'd say I get about an average of 10-13 MPG in the 5.0 after about 150 miles. On the other hand (and this…
