Something to fiddle with during halftime. But won't really need it seeing as I'll be winning the RS raffle in November.

Enough is enough. You have to pick, GT350 or RS, one choice only. Which is it??

Hmmm. Flat plane crank V8 Mustang v. Turbo 4 cylinder 5 door. I assume that's a rhetorical question! It's a good thing I have limited garage space because I'd want them all.

Why not both?!?!
But, much as I want one, the exhaust sound of the RS still reminds me of a hyper tuned LawnBoy mower...

Will be a big seller! Subaru stop making their STI in a 5 door hatch. Huge mistake! RS numbers look fantastic! I have been looking for a replacement for my STI and Ford has provided it. Hope to have new GT besides it! Go Ford!��

I'm not sure if this will be available on the RS - but will be an option on the 2016 Focus and Fiesta

Just back from a meeting at Ford. Product is much too expensive for entry/mid level cars ~ heard an option price tag of around $1.2M/unit.

1st gen. beta version seems it can be a bit problematic; demonstrated issues about reliably returning back to the correct current time/date. Some Ford/Apple/Google product validation engineers are still at-large ~ families becoming concerned on whereabouts.

Subsequent discussion about launch readiness/risk, residual consumer acceptance and potential editorial slams from Consumer Reports.

Rex/Paul-
Late to the party on this thread, but my thoughts align with Rex.
Although I would have added the NGT in the mix as well.
Just pick one.....

From the Ep 6 video, that Germany plant produces 370,000 cars per year? Holy cow!
