    Definitely have to enjoy V8 manuals while they’re still around. Happy the V8 Mustang is still here. The new S650 Mustang is so similar to the previous gen S550 Mustangs. It’s more like a facelift more than a new generation. I purchased a 2021 GT with 30k miles for $30 out the door 3 months ago. With only 2 performance mods (Headers and E85). I was just above 500 whp to the wheels. Tracked my Mustang twice so far and with Magnaride suspension from factory the car was a so good on race track. Takes turns really well and fast on the straightls. Not as engaging as my BRZ on track but pretty close considering how much bigger the Mustang is.

My dream car, even though I can no longer get one due to import restrictions as the years roll by, will always be an Evo 8. I was considering getting the GR Yaris 1.6 turbo but then Toyota brought the GR Corolla to the market. It's a 3 cyl but 100 hp per cyl is crazy. Stock it suffers from heat soak if ran too long and high rpms but that's an easy fix with some modifications. Totally amazing car.

    launching the GR Corolla with the stock pitch mount presents significant challenges. The factory mount is notorious for tearing at the front with relatively low mileage, observed in instances as early as 1000 miles. Such damage complicates gear shifting, rev-matching, and the launching process considerably.

    • @rock40ps3
      @rock40ps3 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Do some research, your utterly incorrect about the Mount tearing, its just a soft pitch mount from the factory, that "tearing" is by design and is called flashing material, it was never meant to be permanently bonded to the aluminum structure, it is blatantly obvious if you ever actually looked at one.

    • @1InfinityShade
      @1InfinityShade หลายเดือนก่อน

      @rock40ps3 My pitch mount was removed and inspected at a dealership prior to posting my comment. It was noted that the front of the mount had separated. Causing the engine to shift more than it should. This results in a loss of deliverable torque during launch. Additionally, this affects the 0 to 60 time and makes shifting more difficult.
      Many GR Corolla owners have discussed the pitch mount. It is evident that you lack the first-hand experience to comment on the subject.

      @@redbreads Dude, do yourself a favor and think before you speak or at least know what you are talking about because people will rip you apart if you say dumb shit like this. That Ford v8 is a proven engine. One of the most advanced v8 to exist, it's very responsive to boost with it's high revs and performance response, yet it still remains reliable/durable because of how resistant it is to abuse. They literally overbuilt that engine to be modified as was always the intention of Mustangs.

      I am pretty sure Roman didn’t say that because these are the kind of answers that can destroy an otherwise thriving channel and Roman is way smarter than that. On the other hand, this is what a 20 something employee would post on a Saturday morning when his boss is still sleeping at home oblivious to the damage his employee is causing.

    Come on, Tommy!!!! Seriously, a 3 cylinder turbo? Turbos are so notoriously unreliable. The Mustang sounds fantastic! There is no replacement for displacement. We absolutely love our V6 4runner.

    This would be a tough decision for me. Love the awd sport hatch, but also really love the V8 and more power. Although I'd go for a manual transmission

    You need to try that Mustang on E-85! Why are you not running it on ethanol?
