Nobody is going to sell a V8 powered coupe in the UK for £30k OTR. Get used to it.

Drooling.

Helios1234 · 12 Dec 2013 at 21:06

Magnetic, Guard or Ingot Silver for me please.

Skeeter · 12 Dec 2013 at 22:01

I like that. Really really like that.

I can't help thinking though that come 2015 and generic UK "swap the $ sign for a £ sign" pricing, the V8 will be over £40k.

But if by some miracle the I4 is brilliant and cheap, its got to be onto a winner. There's plenty of people out there who want something a bit different to the vast array of familiar performance saloons and coupes about.

Well it's already faster than BOSS 302 on track, that says a lot about performance on track and even more so on road, considering the BOSS 302 was marketed against the M3.

Ford could have a real winner and that inline-4 though it will sound crap could be the sweeter handling car and no doubt an intercooler, breathing mods and exhaust will give 400+ horses. :eek:

Some stripes

Any ideas when pre orders will start

Marvin · 12 Dec 2013 at 23:38

Really looking forward to this. Is the 2.3 in anything else currently, especially at that level of tune? As I was thinking it might actually sound pretty nice, maybe with a hint of race-engine in there if done right (maybe wishful thinking...).

I'm glad they didn't just do the V8, nor stick a generic lower emissions engine in, should be a good laugh in either form. All depends on the price though.

Damn that looks good. Had to zoom in to see them though, any chance you can make them bigger?

It's meant to be April next year in the US, not sure about the UK though but hopefully not long after.

Begbie · 13 Dec 2013 at 00:53

When I first seen this, I hated the look of the front.

It really is growing on me though, 30k at new too it is a very realistic car come 5-6 years...

Vauxhall done it, though scarily that was what nearly 9 years ago now!

You can get a 6.2 litre 425bhp Camaro SS in the UK from a Chevy dealer for just over £35k (albeit LHD).

Jester* · 13 Dec 2013 at 07:24

That military style green is lovely.

So much love for a good muscle car, I really hope it is a success and priced well.

Not many Chevy dealers around soon though

Pricing is going to be the success or fail of this, if ford take the **** with the pricing of either model it's doomed to fail.

Lashout_UK · 13 Dec 2013 at 09:58

The four-cylinder variant is the one I'm most interested to drive.

If they are well priced, the second hand value of all the imports in the UK shall get hammered, could be some very cheap LHD models on the market.

MooMoo444 · 13 Dec 2013 at 10:50

Don't think I've ever seen anyone driving a LHD on my travels

Uncle_Gravy · 13 Dec 2013 at 10:59

Even the interior looks great, even by our standards, Think I might just skip all this Z4/E46 searching, and just buy a cheap 182 or something to keep me going and continuing saving for this.

Also I'd like a White Convertible V8

Jez · 13 Dec 2013 at 11:01

This car looks amazing from the press photo's. (referring to the interior shots mainly, as that was the huge let down on the old mustangs).

A Ford which I actually like, what is going on. We are in the market for a V8 2+2 Cabrio too

Wonder if they can make the V8 Econo....Oh screw it its a V8

But yeah, the interior looks great, not the normal ugly plastic tripe they usually put in their American Cars.
