derphurf Report post Posted January 7, 2017 I love it. They really got it right! I had a heads/cam and variable suspension installed. Unfortunately I haven't had a chance to track it yet. But it is very planted and fun as hell. If you are looking at getting one, get a loaded extreme. I got an extreme and my iPhone has better speakers! Wrong thread for this, but what suspension did you install? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortis Report post Posted January 8, 2017 If you want to experience burning fuel as if you have a hole in the tank try driving the SV Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHaynes772 Report post Posted January 8, 2017 I mean I know exotics aren't for MPG, but I guess I was expecting a little better out of an EcoBoost twin turbo V6. Hopefully the thing is just plain nasty and ridiculous! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fortis Report post Posted January 8, 2017 The only issues is having to fill very often, in particular if you do long runs out of town, that can be a big problem. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That what Im curious about too is the size of the gas tank. When I was driving my gen 2 Cadillac CTS-v with a heavy foot, I would get about 180 miles out of a thank. It was annoying AF.

The way the SV chews fuel I am worried to take it out of town for a proper run, I'd definitely be out of fuel on a run I usually do Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrDoctor Report post Posted January 9, 2017 Will they allow for custom colors on the GT? Or do they have a pallet that you have to chose from? I personally think someone like Monterey Blue (Lambo) or a personal favorite Volcano Orange (McLaren, pearl yellow with a very light hint of green to the clear coat to match Senna's driving helmet) would be amazing and really shine on that car. I think it would be great to have it in a brilliant color. Wow. Did not know that. Really makes me appreciate volcano orange even more.

Rouleur Report post Posted January 9, 2017 Wow. Did not know that. Really makes me appreciate volcano orange even more. Shit, I meant Volcano Yellow. I typed it wrong. Dammit. Volcano Orange is nice as well. They are interesting colors as they are not actually orange or yellow or red. THey are supposedly painted silver first and then they apply the other colors as an overlay of some sort in order to get the metallic to pop they way they do.

rmtn Report post Posted January 12, 2017 This was at CES That color partitioning without stickers and dirrerent hues might work miracles. It is possible to create very futuristic look. Think about who different shades of matte gray with matte black. Only stripe and mirrors in neon color. High gloss chromed wheels.

APB Report post Posted January 25, 2017 Some of the major specs are out from Ford: 647HP. 550 pound feet of torque. (745 Nm) It weighs 3054 pounds (1,385 kg) dry. Top speed 216 mph/347 km/h Source to back these up: http://www.motor1.com/news/134388/2017-for...specs-revealed/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
derphurf Report post Posted January 26, 2017 Good amount of torque, heavier than expected though. Will be a good matchup to the 991 GT2RS, 488 "speciale", huracan performante, and P14 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
