SEMA Review: The Return Of The2019 Mustang Mach III
The two, two-seat roadsters were built in bright red and metallic green, both with black trim, chrome five-star split spoke rims and plush black and body colored interior. The 1992 Mustang Mach III was powered by a supercharged 4.6L 4V modular motor, making 450 horsepower and 440 lb-ft of torque. This drivetrain helped the Mustang Mach III dash from 0-60 in 4.5 seconds and hit a top speed of 180 miles per hour. However, with the early design stages of the 13th generation Thunderbird (which was a 2-seat car), Ford never produced more of the Mustang Mach III. Later, while spending some time touring various Auto Shows, the red Mustang Mach III was involved in a transportation accident, in which the car was a complete fire loss. The New Mustang Mach III? These images are not of the original red 1992 Mustang Mach III, but rather a reproduction designed by Dave Haymond and manufactured by Extreme Autoworks LLC of Mesa, Arizona. This vehicle sat upstairs of the 2008 SEMA Show, across from one of the Miller Cup Mustangs, as the designers are looking for investors to finance production of what they call the 鈥淢ustang Concept3鈥? Like the originals, the Concept3 is powered by a 4.6L engine, assisted by an intercooled supercharger setup, making 425 horsepower. That power is sent to the wheels via a 5-speed manual transmission, and helping the Concept3 get stopped is a 4-wheel disc brake setup complete with an anti-locking brake system. The original concept was very popular in 1992 and 1993, but will this reproduction effort get off the ground? Do you think that we will see any of these built and sold?
I'm not complaining, I'm right at 7% a year with div. I'm not a greedy guy. 7% is A-OK in my book. The CEO is lost, in way over his head and one factor in me selling out! Ford is a rudderless ship, chasing pipe dreams instead of listening to customers and dealers. Ford will improve greatly with a real CEO, being a friend of environmental champion, Bill Ford, is not enough qualification to run a car company. I own a 2015 F150 and have a lease expiring on a bmw 328. I just placed an order to buy a tesla LR AWD 3 series. Why tesla over new 330? The dollars and environmental positives came down on Tesla's side. Tesla is faster but BMW handles better. The difference is in the autonomous driving features. Tesla is miles ahead of everyone else. It is a game changer. Frigate Sales like this.
If they can bring a viable electric F150 to market I鈥檓 really interested what that might do for the stock and company overall. I hate it every time I open my positions page in my brokerage account though. I'm still in for the dividend, but how much longer do I have endure this useless CEO? Why tesla over new 330? The dollars and environmental positives came down on Tesla's side. Tesla is faster but BMW handles better. The difference is in the autonomous driving features. Tesla is miles ahead of everyone else. It is a game changer. Not going to happen. Tesla's electrical architecture and auto driving system different and much simpler (less secure) than what an established oems are doing because of the fear of lawsuits.

They just dont have much to loose so they are allowing the general public to use their flawed autopilot. Ford is actually ranked in the top 3 in autonomous driving. VW the largest car manufacturer just bought into Ford's tech. Just because Tesla is allowing you to use a system known for running into stationary objects, doesnt mean it's ahead of anothers system. Bound by an NDA. Telsa factories are a mess. I'd never own one. Ford OTOH. I'll likely be in a new Mustang GT in another 6 months. As I understand it, Ford has a military contract for pickups. When you have a large fleet of vehicles from one OEM, it is senseless to change. Look at most county fleets and you'll find GM or Ford for the most part.
Maintaining parts for 2 OEMs is a waste of resources. Interesting it took this long for the mustang to pop up. Although Ford seems to be sacking passenger cars in general, they are retaining the Mustang. The Mustang is an interesting part of Fords marketing strategy. Mustang used to be to Ford what Camaro was to Chevy. Now it is the Corvette of Ford. It has become the symbolic image of Ford performance, just like the F-150 is the symbol of the work division of Ford. 1 selling sports car in Germany for a while. As for Tesla being the threat to Ford, I'm not seeing that. 40K. Tesla will need to sharpen their pencil. RyanL11 and Striperk9 like this. Interesting it took this long for the mustang to pop up.
