I mean, how could it look any better?

Black is beautiful but man, that will be a beotch to keep clean. Perfect for Rowan!

Even though Roz has ordered me to get the heritage, she has declined.my offer to let her clean it, so I guess mine will be one dirty-ass car!

Or you can shift into the other modes just not track and VMAX on the Fly.

I would imagine the answer to this question, and many others, can be found here

When in doubt, RTFM. :)

I was surprised, but not amazed, that the manual was on line already. I wonder when it showed up.

If I can't have it.. its cheap!

since when you even post about internet trolls anyway? no offense to our Fchat members :)

Few cars have ever inspired so many internet trolls. Practically a full-time job for some. :lol

Stock. It's quite loud.

A little work experience never hurt anyone. Never too late for one to start a profession. ;)

No, I think the front lifter functionality works at low speeds. I'll have to double check. I'm just certain you can't do the full drop unless the car is stopped and dial turned to P, which makes sense when you see how ridiculously slammed the whole car is.

So, if you have it in P & the car is dropped, when you turn the car off it raises up?

What a car. So proud of Ford. Thanks DBK, for keeping us all "in the loop" constantly. It's the next best thing to being you, lol.

That lowering and raising functionality is unreal. It's explosive when it goes back up. Turn the knob and BOOM you're up 50 mm. Pretty wild.

Idle is burly. The car sounds good. Loud too.



Wow, you are not kidding on the raising function or the idle sound. Both are impressive in the video. That raising mode looks like they modeled it off a mechanical bull! Great stuff!

Man, I love that car. The rapid-fire raise/lower function is perfect. It takes nearly a month for the McLaren to do the same thing. I thought the GT3 was fast, but wow.

The side profile of the NGT makes me all warm and fuzzy. Perfection, man, perfection. The color scheme on that car is epic as well. I like black cars, even if they are a pain in the rump to keep clean.

I'm just so stoked on Ford right now, so proud that they are us and we are them. I really can't think of an exotic right now that looks as cool, and that's saying something.

Not in color.

No, that is the single carryover item in the interior.


So you are saying the interior is Focus-esque? Got it.

I hear that you're bringing this bad boy out to Pasteiner's tomorrow for a public showing. I trust you will be bringing enough rags to wipe away the saliva!?
