    Default New 10 speed mustang.....

    Just took one of these for a drive, very nice.
    The extra power and the 10 speed auto make all the difference.
    And yes, they have the active exhaust and race mode.......
    First time I've been on a test drive and the sales person (female) kept on telling me to give it some....

    You wouldn't want to give it to much showing 9kls to empty you might have to push it back to the dealer, Or at least the sales person would.

    Forget about texting while you drive, with all those buttons on the steering wheel, you'd be in way more trouble trying to find the right one!
    I'm out of my mind, but feel free to leave a message...

    Just trying to think of some nice Mountain Roads where that could be wound out like between the Megalong Valley and Blackheath (Shiply).
    2 or 3ks of twisty single lane road rising about 600 feet with a couple of hairpins to make it interesting.
    I stand unequivicably behind everything I say , I just dont ever remember saying it !!

    They are very factory limited.

    I have a mate that is a dyno tuner whos older brother just went out and bought one.

    Lots of decel burble from the exhaust, in fact its seriously overdone to the point of its not fun anymore.

    I liked it cruising out one night next to it, only criticism was the burbles from the exhaust was tacky for a car like this but the look and toughness was on point.

    Unfortunately it needs more power to match that look.......

    You can get an OEM approved Roush supercharger kit.

    670hp and adr compliant.

    Doesn't affect the factory 5 year unlimited km warranty......

    Fitted locally by herrod motorsport, apparently they had a hand in the development of the kit....

    Sorry.... You took a female for a test drive and she kept telling you to "give it some"......
    Exactly what kind of test drive are we talking about here?
    If u want to go on an expedition get a Land Rover, if u want to come home from an expedition get a Landcruiser!

    670hp/500 crank KW will bring it under where it needs to be to take on Walkinshaw HSV's which are currently at 547Kw.

    They need to push beyond that but my gut tells me the internals may not be in a position to do so.

    Unsure if the internals are all forged.

    Same question as OB.......
    The fact that there's a highway to hell and a stairway to heaven says a lot about the anticipated traffic flow.

    Bit of a non issue now, as they don't make V8 commodores any more....

    Just import a dodge demon if you want to be OEM HP King.....
