    Im not a fan of yellow on cars but the GT really looks good in yellow.

      I was literally just thinking that the other day when I first saw it in yellow......I would never buy a yellow car but when I first saw a clip of it I was like woah I don't know why but this new mustang looks great in yellow. I think it has to do with the gloss black other parts.

      @@tonemack2981They didn’t. They overrated it if anything, just like all manufacturers do. Just like they are doing on this car. It’s difficult to validate NET HP ratings, which is what all manufactures use, post 1972. Prior was Gross. Dyno’s use Rear Wheel or “ Brake “ HP, and even that varies by type (load or chassis ) and other variables such as DA. Only thing that really matters is 1/4 times in equal DA with equal 60 foot times….

    Good review, but you got the S197 segment wrong. It didn’t start changing in 2010, it started in 95 with the S197 itself. That was the first year the Mustang rode on a platform taken from a premium car instead of from a hopped up econo car. The 05-14 had the same chassis with suspension tweaks as the platform went on. The Boss 302 suspension improvements can be bolted right on to an 05. 05 was also the first year a standard V8 Mustang had ever crossed the 300 net horsepower threshold. The change from pony (it’s never really been a muscle car except for a few specific trims in the early/mid 70’s) to sports car, began taking shape in 05.

    • @viewsonvehicles
      @viewsonvehicles  Рік тому +1

      Those are fair points, but I my point was that Ford really took a step in 2010, offering track packs and other features. That quickly ramped up in 2011 (more track packs and the Coyote 5.0-liter), 2012, (Boss Mustang, Laguna Seca package) and so on. Ford really wanted to ramp up sports car prowess as it lead up to the introduction of the independent rear axle car in 2015 (S550).
      Part of my position comes from the fact that I was an engineer, working on Ford Mustang at the time. I tuned the traction control and the sport mode stability control for the 2010-2012 model years.

    • @newfie-dean5803

      The S197 did not start in 1995. The SN95 started in 1994. The S197 started in 2005 and the 2005 suspension was a complete redesign, not what was used prior. The SN95 suspension was a carryover of foxbody suspension. The 2005 suspension was much better with greatly improved torsional rigidity.

    • @viewsonvehicles
      @viewsonvehicles  Рік тому

      @@newfie-dean5803 That's correct about S197. And, in fact, SN95 was an updated version of the Fox platform. Not a significant departure. S197 was a huge leap in terms of structure for Mustang.

      Lmao.. okay so lots of complaining about new tech (no I dont like it either but half of it you dont need to use). And as for the 500hp that never changed. They have been very clear about the hp for which models. GT gets 480hp stock, with active exhaust its 486hp, and the Dark Horse gets 500hp.
      Im not a fan of the screens either but I honestly think its because they didnt have the budget to design it to integrate better with new tech to compete with other car brands (which matters for a mass produced car like this). This comeing from someone with experience in projects like this where you can only do so much within a given budget and deadline.
