Are you ready for the endless shitposting when the 2018 gt500 is revealed to have a twin turbo Ecoboost v8?
Wether or not they go for a Ecoboost voodoo or stick with the 5.0 the up and coming gt500 is bound to have turbos
I'm ready

>The EcoBoost 5.0 V8 program has been under development for a several years, and first made it’s public appearance in the Cobra Jet program in late-2012. The underlying purpose of the EcoBoost V8 project was to power the next-gen GT500. The 5.2L FPC program contributed to delaying the 5.0 EcoBoost program, but this V8 Twin-Turbo program is now on track again, and will make it’s debut in the next GT500 and 2018 F-150 Raptor, and could possibly become a second-motor option for the 2017 model year Raptor”

>>15565143
Twin turbo on an aluminum block is a mess waiting to happen.
Also boosting a the voodoo would be stupid. High revolutions and throttle response are the hallmarks of the voodoo, and both of those will be gimped if they turbo it.

And like every other shelby in the latest generations, it will be supercharged, so you might as well delete the bait thread Alphonse.

Why would there be endless shitposting? it has a V8 and not a V6 and i'm interested in how it will function to be honest.

To be completely honest I'd really like to see a TT V6 Mustang with AWD and under 3800lbs. That's the next logical step. RWD simply isn't useable at the power level modern cars have.

It's the only thing that would cause me to ditch my Termi. I simply am not impressed by random huge HP numbers without the traction to back it up.

That might jack up the price to the point where most people who can afford it will go buy a performance Audi unless they throw some half-assed AWD-train that makes the car handle worse to keep the cost down. i think all of the AWD trains Ford has are FWD-biased so they would have to design a new one entirely for the mustang which they most likely aren't going to do because of cost.

Would be nice if they used the Falcon as their AWD performance platform but they're killing the falcon and Ford doesn't seem very adventurous with their platforms. When was the last RWD Lincoln besides the town-car and navigator? the LS?
>>
>>15565665
Fuck I wish I could get a Barra in the states.
>>
>>15565665
The stang is already a cash cow for Ford so I honestly think they could keep the price point. It's going to need a major update anyway due to the alpha platform GM has now.

They could save a lot of money by shutting down 5.0 production altogether and share the V6 with the rest of the fleet.

I see it like this:
Rental Tier: FWD w/ 2.3L I4
GT: AWD w/ warmed over (tune only) 3.0L V6 shared with upcoming Lincoln Continental/Navigator
GT500: AWD w/ 3.5L V6 shared with raptor

I don't see the need for RWD outside of trucks which have already replaced the old school luxury barge market in the US.

gt500 has 285 rear and 245 front. might have gotten wider at front.

ZL1 (the more direct competitor to the GT500) has 285 rear and like 255 front. still really wide, but it's suspension is a lot better and that's what made it a significantly more manageable car. that, and the extremely sophisticated traction control that premiered on the ZR1

mustang is RWD, has always been RWD. I doubt they'd go front wheel drive.

besides, if you wanted an awd sportscar get an audi or a subaru or something

and the mustang makes money right now. believe it or not, chad knows the value of RWD because it means you can do wicked burnouts. it is also better for drag racing.
>>
>>15565812
Is that the GM firetruck v12 out back??
>>
>>15565857
If you want a less capable Mustang due to tradition, why not buy one of the widely available less capable old ones from its 50 year history?

AWD is the future and it will be on Ford's radar when the next Mustang is due out.

How much does the GT cost? 400,000 fucking dollars....The body panels alone probably cost more to replace than the average annual US family income. The two aren't even in the same class. The GT500 will cost a less than 1/4 of GT at $80k.

Buy a GT500 blow $20k on modifications and i bet you could make the GT500 run circles around the GT on a track

I don't follow racing or any of that shit because its all hyper cars with performance that doesn't translate into the real world. I don't know if there is a race car in whatever series you watch that has V8 that is both supercharged and turbo charged. Its a hypothetical.

All i know is that the ecoboost mustang has been btfo'd hard by the camaro with a N/A V6, the turbo six M4/M3 duo has been BFTO'd hard by the camaro with a N/A V8, and the Viper with its N/A V10 has BTFO'd almost every car in the same class. Sure, maybe the GT wins more on a track but in almost every real world example your "replacement for displacement" meme fails

Its hilarious how hard you are projecting your cuckold fetish right now. Get out of your moms basement and get a job so you can actually buy a car that isn't a 4 cylinder shit box

>That camouflage hides a new front end optimized to feed air to the GT500’s distinguishing feature, a twin-turbocharged V-8. Clues that this is no ordinary Mustang are sprinkled all over the front end. Check out the zippered panels above the grille, across the leading edge of the hood. It’s clear that the section can be removed, which is typically the case when cooling vents hide beneath manufacturer camouflage. Neither the Mustang GT nor the GT350 have openings there (the GT350 has an extractor vent farther up the hood, but it faces backward), and the lower fascia appears to be unique. Look closely: The diagonal spars separating the lower air inlet from the outboard brake-cooling ducts tilt outward, while the same pieces on the GT350 face the opposite direction. These give the lower intake an upside-down corral shape that mirrors the right-side-up corral shape of the iconic Mustang grille. Students of history will note that the outgoing Shelby GT500’s face featured the same flourish. And is that an intercooler we see down there?

Do you have any idea what you are talking about?

A bare bones ecoboost mustang with the PP costs $28,540. You can buy the new camaro in base trim with the V6 for $28,190. So its actually cheaper AND faster. No such thing as 1SS V6. 1SS and 2SS trim only come with the 6.2 L V8.

Your picture there shows conflicting stats. Camaro is faster than M4 and I'll just use your logic to say the Camaro is cheaper than the M2 so of course its faster.

I think they should make a two tier system, with the GT350 being nothing but supercharged manual V8s, and the GT500 being whatever engineers find to be the fastest, be it a turbo V6 with flappy paddles or whatever. Seems like a good compromise when there's two reusable titles like that.

Its one damn package that every test done with the ecoboost mustang had with it when tested. I am just trying to keep it competitive with the camaro V6, without it i have no stats to use for the mustang.

Ford positioned the ecoboost to compete with the Camaro V6, hence why its more expensive than the V6 version of the mustang.

The camaro with the V6 and nothing else still performs better than the ecoboost mustang w/ Performance Package. Even the 2.0T camaro is faster than the ecoboost and that is with shit tires.

It is comparable because Ford positioned the ecoboost Mustang to perform directly against the V6 Camaro.

V6 Mustang vs. 2.0t Camaro
Ecoboost Mustang vs. V6 Camaro
Mustang GT vs. Camaro SS
Mustang GT350 vs. Camaro Z/28
Mustang GT500 vs. Camaro ZL1

That is how GM and Ford have set up their pony cars to compete against each other. I think it was a giant mistake for Ford to make the 2.3 L I4 mustang a notch above the V6 as it has lost to both the 2.0T and V6 versions of the Camaro
>>
>>15570525
The 2.0 camaro isn't faster than the ecoboost around a track. Oh and nice job comparing a Mustang premium to a BASE V6. It starts at 25k dumbass without packages.
>>
>>15567184
It's a v6 because the aero wouldn't work with the additional engine length of 2 more cylinders.

Also, if they can make all of the necessary power with a v6, there's no reason for 2 extra cylinders.
>>
>>15570577
And your point?

A base mustang GT starts at $32,645 while a Camaro SS starts at $37,900 which is a pretty big price difference yet they are constantly go up against each other in comparison tests. Using your logic, the Mustang GT would go up against the V6 camaro.

I compared a base mustang ecoboost w/ Performance Package against a base camaro w/ V6. No idea what you are talking about.
>>
>>15570667
Yes, exactly. It would. Because it's cheaper. That's why the Mustang sells 14,000 models a month and the camaro sells 6000.
>>
>>15570688
And that's why the Camaro sells more models than the BMW M4. And the Toyota corolla sells more than all 3 combined. Sales mean nothing

We are talking about performance here, not sales or price.

How is the ecoboost better than the 2.0 Camaro?

The camaro has a 35 hp and 25 lb-ft deficit and bad tires yet still destroys it in the straights, 5.2 vs 6.3 seconds to 60 mph. It is less than a second slower on the track (0.86 sec) than the mustang that has all the performance goodies from the mustang GT.

Motor Trend spent $1500 on better tires and the performance gains were huge.
http://www.motortrend.com/news/1500-speed-secret-three-adds-much/

"the Camaro RS with stock tires lapped the Streets course in 1:28.18, or 0.86 second behind the Mustang EcoBoost. Summer tires on the Camaro resulted in a 1.57-second lead"

But none of this matters since the Ecoboost is meant to compete against the V6 camaro not the 2.0t version. Its barely faster on the track than the 2.0T and gets smoked by the V6.
>>

The camaro and challenger have always lagged behind the mustang sales-wise. That doesn't mean either are bad cars. People also buy whatever is cheaper, not what is the better car.

An ecoboost mustang with the performance package which every performance test with the ecoboost mustang in was equipped with costs the $350 more than a V6 1lt camaro.

If you want a car that will now not only be extremely slower than the base 2.0t camaro around the track but brake worse, handle worse, and ride worse go buy an ecoboost without the performance package.
