7th Gen S650 2024 Mustang

For you gear heads. Ford released their next gen Mustang and it's good to see pure muscle car DNA featured with this new platform.

5.0L V8 putting out ~500HP
10 speed auto transmission
6 speed Tremec manual transmission
Convertible option

Looks like Camaro may go away in the future and Dodge is threatening to make their muscle car EV or in line 6, so it's good to see Ford investing in the Mustang platform to keep it a good looking fun to drive car and will sell everyone they can build.

    At both 45 and 70 mph, those horses are a lot easier to feed than an original Mustang...

    Aaaah. Just wondering if there was a relevance to Tow Vehicles that I'd missed. Really enjoyed my Fox bodied 5.0 but these new ones should be much nicer!
  • I notice it is another nice gasser but not allowed in CA after 2023. P.S. don't tell the folks.

  • No thanks, I’ll stick with my 1st gen Mustang; I prefer the looks of the original over the new ones.
