glorified crown vic

Not even an ameritrash fan but hot damn if the Terminator and Cobra R ain't the best looking Mustangs

>>28508332
The ones that don't even look like Mustangs?

>>28508311 (OP)
>2 door
>13 cubic feet of trunk space
It doesn't even come close.

>>28508332
Only after face lift lol
>>28508339
You mean previous gen? This one at least has tail lights done right.

>>28508311 (OP)
Glorified Crown Vic is just a Crown Vic. It's so glorified even Aussie retards want to import it.

>>28508311 (OP)
>>28508332
The S197 was the best looking 'stang since the first gen and still hasn't been beaten.

>>28508339
That's the genius of it. It wasn't desperately trying to mimic an old boomer design. The SN95 was its own thing

>The FD RX-7 is a glorified Mazda Parkway because they share the same engine design on a surface level.
Crown vic is even body-on-frame.

>>28508355
"its own thing" was looking like regular traffic

>>28508354
Perfect example. Look at how doughy and disproportionate the S197 looks compared to the New Edge. Ford was right in making the SN95 be a modern sports coupe rather than a cheap looking throwback

>>28508367
I could get behind the new edge if not for those headlights. It seriously looks like somebody riced out their grandpa's lincoln.

>>28508332
The interior is trash. The s550 refresh is perfection inside and out. I’ve driven them all.

>>28508647
>s550
Fusion with a body kit like the rest of Ford's lineup.

>>28508311 (OP)
the only thing they share is the 8.8 and the mod motor 4.6, but the crown vic doesn't use the 4link or the ifs rear that you could get a cobra with, plus they have the 5 speed.
they're not even similar platforms op.

>>28508651
Delusional inbred cock sucker. Chevy tranny

>>28508653
they don't even share the motor, vics only ever had the 2v 4.6 with none of the upgrades that the mustang got (they rated it higher hp wise, at least), and never got the 3v that the 2005+ mustangs got
ironically, the 4v cobra engine everyone loves was originally a Lincoln exclusive. thus, the cobra is a dollar store Mark VIII.

After the euro inspired Foxbody the SN95 saw the return of
>long hood short deck coupe styling of the early 1st gens
>running horse emblem
>chamfer in the side
>tri-bar taillights
>dual cockpit dash
Ford made a lot of ads back in the day about how it was like old Mustangs again.

>>28508663
Sorry your automatic V6 S550 didn't get you laid

>>28508653
They share the same 4R70 auto too.
>>28508669
Terminators use the same block as a 2V GT and the C-heads are completely different design than the B-heads on the original Lincoln version of the DOHC 4.6L. But he was talking about how the 2V GT from '96-'04 was essentially the same engine in the panther. Panthers did get the PI head update, but it was in '01 instead of '99.

>>28508770
>They share the same 4R70 auto too.
I would never see a sn95 with an automatic and give it a second glance.
>>28508669
yeah I will freely admit I don't know or care about mod motors.

>>28508354
Yes but only the 2012-14 final refresh.

>>28508837
Glad we agree automatics are for fags and women.

>>28508354
Sorry but no it looks like a luxury coupe or a 2 door sedan the previous gen facelift captured the true esscence of the pony car

>>28508954
The SN95 was like modern take(at the time) of an early first gen coupe. >>28508754
The S197 was a full blown retro rendition of a greatest hits of 1st gen Mustang styling and again Ford proudly advertised this fact.

>>28508355
baaaaased new edge enjoyer, if only interior weren't so dogshit

>>28508354
Sweet.
I have a base model in the same color

>>28508651
Agreed, stangs are back to looking generic and similar to everything else on the road. The retro gen is the best.
Now if only cars could look like pic related again.

>Glorified dependable vehicle that'll last 400k with proper maintaining

>>28510053
Not until that junk ass 4R75 tranny starts slipping out.

The Fox platform debuted before the Panther platform Anon.

>>28508332
It's butt ugly. Looks like it has a diaper on its chin

The most respectable Le Mans effort of all time.

>>28513861
Did this race at the 24hr Le Mans classic in 2023? I can't remember if I saw it in the same garage as this Saleen S7.

>>28513856
at least it doesn't have a dildo chin

>>28513861
Didn't Jag get 1,2 3,4,6 Le Mans finish.
That's not insignificant.

lmao even

Go back to the Dodge thread Anon.

>>28508332
that exhaust is fucking ridiculous.

>>28513935
>runs 15s.
>cannot turn
>same size brakes as gmc terrain

>>28508311 (OP)
grim

>>28514218
They used side pipes because of the fuel cell. They also used a V6 Mustang rear bumper since there were no dual exhausts coming out the back like a GT/Cobra.

>>28508311 (OP)
More like cucked F-150

>>28514220
Why did you just describe your car Anon?

>>28514220
Meanwhile, in reality.

I know you made thread because you don't get enough positive attention in your life.They aren't even the same platform.

Please do better.
