>>13948926
Ford won? Nah, it should be said as "Ford winning hearts since the 1903"

Probably sitting on my couch shitposting like usual.

Ferd is GOAT. I can't wait for the new GT. I wish they would do more SVT type stuff though like Dodge does with SRT. The Focus ST and RS are cool, but we need the Explorer and Fusion with a Coyote. Although I guess that's why Ford is the one US company that didn't need a bailout.

>>13948971
i do not know, did they solve the ecoboost problems?
you know the soot on the valves that they said you cant clean off with hydrocarbon based cleaners since they will melt the cats?

last i heard, (last year lol so please tell me) you had to pull the heads as the official ford fix and clean that shit by hand

>>13948926

>spending $63,500 on a Mustang

Ford is the pinnacle of automobile engineering.

V8s that rev high and are better than bmw v8s

V6s that outperform bmw 6s

Bmw is shit tier. Ford is god tier.
Honestly who would buy a shit tier model x3 over a fully loaded Ford Escape. Are you retarded.

No idea, but that's of minor inconvenience.

>>13948992
its only minor if its easy to clean. last year you had to pull the heads and clean them but like i said things should have changed by now.

with any direct injected gas engine they are going to have to face this challenge. maybe some water injection or something? i have no idea. im not an engineer.

>>13948987
I have 150k and have noticed the cat is losing efficiency, car doesn't warm up as fast and doesn't retain as much heat as it used to after sitting awhile. My gfs car only has 40k and still warms up very quick.

For some reason I'm pretty hype for Fusion ST. Pretty sure it'll have AWD considering the normie Fusion already has AWD available with the 2.0 tarbo.

>>13950845
Has Fusion ST been confirmed?

>Pretty sure it'll have AWD considering the normie Fusion already has AWD
Agreed, I'd imagine it'd get a slightly detuned 2.3L EB from the Mustang and RS, maybe 290hp.

The Camaro is literally a benchracing machine now. Yes, it gets better numbers than the moostang, but you can't see out the damn thing.

>>13949337
The camaro costs more than the GT350r. That is comparing it the the lesser model almost (and is half the price) at the base model GT. The GT350r is the real contender and it won.

let's address the things that aren't subjective.

>faster
>cheaper

doubtful. Subaru has already claimed that they won't turbo it, so GG with that one. The car is already close to as expensive as base model GTs without being an STI version, so it won't be cheaper either.

All GDI engines have the issue because the fuel is injected directly into the combustion chamber and bypassing the valve.

Bow, bitch.

The 350R is impressive. But for that much money Id rather have a more comfortable and practical luxury car like an M4, ATS-V, C63 AMG, etc. That will do a lap maybe a few seconds slower but still be damn fast. Or just buy a ZR1.

>>13951390
Put both cars at the same horsepower? Of course the lighter one would win, but who cares. I wish we had an admin on this board that would ban people for stupid shit like this.

A car like the GT350(R) is usually a person's second or third car.

Assuming the BRZ STI concept was a production car, it would be turbo. That concept had the turbocharged GT300 engine which makes 300hp. It would still be slower than the Mustang GT, but still be very fast. I doubt it would be cheaper too, probably closer to the Camaro SS. None of that matters though, since the BRZ STI probably won't happen.

>>13954726

Pretty sure adding hand made carbon fiber and more leather would raise the cost more. It's supposed to be inexpensive.
