According to TTAC...
MORE UPDATES: I have confirmed via Ford PR that the EcoBoost will make around 300 horsepower and be automatic only.

WTF Ford! So much for "Save the Manuals". :(
The tech specs on Mustang7g show the getrag as standard on the ecoboost. Is this another mansquatch flop?

I like the look and variants. Available in 2027 with sleazy dealerships marking up the high-end models $30K +. The Ford Way.

I would rather just buy a 23 Mach1 which I might given its the last of the S550. I have a 500hp S550 which is paid for, not sure I could pony up all the excessive $ to get a couple nice to have upgrades. I do not like the GTA5 dashboard they did, but I am for the purist driving experience.

Remote rev…can’t wait to rev my own engine while I watch from afar. Would be a cool feature to prank someone with but that’s about the extent of its usefulness.
And you could see if you were shooting flames!

The reveal yesterday night was tough to watch. Ford hired this guy that gave "divorced dad trying to look cool in front of his daughter friends" vibes and was trying way too hard to move a crowd that just wanted to see the car...

I just did a double take, I know most of us are ford enthusiasts, but your path looks to be the same as mine. I had a 2013 Focus ST, the I bought a 2016 GT premium with PP which I'll keep forever probably and I'm waiting on our 2.7 OBX. Just for fun, ST was Tux black, Mustang is guard green and OBX will be Area 51, yours?
Until this month I actually still had all three of them at once, but I sold the ST.

2013 Ford Focus ST-2 - Ingot Silver Metallic smoke storm partial leather Recaros

2016 Ford Mustang GT Premium 6MT in Guard with the optional torque thrust look alike 18" wheel, added the bullitt que ball shift knob, and GT350R aluminum strut tower brace instead of not having one. Don't intend to get rid of this one

2022 Ford Bronco OBX Eruption Green 4 door with roast leather, and the high package, MIC top advanced transfer case with 4.27:1 rear locker, 2.7L 10R60, etc.

We also have a 2017 Escape SE 2.0L Ecoboost in white gold we bought used in 2019 but that's supposed to be for my wife to learn to drive in.

Cheaper to probably Tremec 3160 swap the one you have than buy the Mach 1 though.

I don't get the "looks like a Camaro" people. It's an American muscle car. They are going to share a lot in common, just like the s550 body did. If anything, I think they restored it more to the Stang's muscle root by boxing out the front end like the classic ones, giving it a stronger gaze. Just my opinion..

its on my list to put the 3160 in thats for sure. The only thing I really want is the magneride stuff they had on the 350 and offered on the PP2 starting in 18, I have a 17.

That's cool that you're planning on swapping for the 3160.

The only thing from the newer facelift Mustang I would want on my 16 is the Tremec, but I have not broken the MT82, so it hasn't been a priority yet. I know it can be easier to do if things haven't broken yet, but time and money were better spent elsewhere at the present time.

Yesterday I said in the other thread the dash had fox body vibes. Low and behold:

https://www.roadandtrack.com/news/a41209180/2024-ford-mustang-fox-body-gauge-cluster
Ford chose to specifically recreate the white needles of the face-lifted Fox body built from 1987-1993. Thankfully, it didn't recreate the 85-mph speedometer fitted to many Fox Mustangs over the years

It would have been better if they did a pre 87 version with SSP mph change. I have an 86 so its quite different, but I have a SSP cluster.
