crazy fast and looks super cool. Would have mine in blue with white stripes with the carbon package.

...but it doesn't have a manual. So, therefore, I would get the GT350R instead and enjoy being connected to my sports car.

If anyone cares, I did the hood louvers/scoop.  

It's huge.

I hands on manufacture the hard tooling (molds) for the parts for the OEMs.   Though we mainly specialize in automotive optics ( Lighting, headlights, tails, reflectors, light pipes, etc) we still do other automotive.

It's really cool to see stuff long before anyone else does (1-3 years).  I wish I could post pics before stuff is shown to the public..but we have a confidentiality agreement.  I have lots of cool stories.  Plus, since this is the tooling capital of Canada, many of my friends do what I do so I get to hear of the cool stuff they're working on.  And due to proximity, many locals work for the OEMs and I usually see one camouflaged test mule weekly.  I'm super-lucky that I get to be around cool automotive stuff every day.  I love my job!!

I'm pretty sure I could post pics now that the car has been shown publicly though.

FWIW, I worked on the upcooming Mustang EV thing too.

Throw in a good cigar along with the beer and it's a sure thing

You had my interest and now you have my attention.  Can someone help me post that meme here?  Sir O? 
Is Mustang really going EV?  WTF?!

Kind of a Ford version of an X6. But electric.

Not sure who was asking for that, or what the Mustang really has to do with it really.

Seem more like a bloated CUV than a Mustang.  And thanks for the pic!  Where do you get these from?

 Meh.  A few beers and you'll talk.

Check your PM...

Yeah, exactly. I'm not sure about the Mustang tie-in. Risky ground there.

And try https://giphy.com/ for all your giffing needs.

Well at least they didn't call it the Bronco...or Blazer FFS.    'cause that'd have been SOO wrong.

They should've called it Lightning.

Huzzah!


Obviously.

[rrocket]

Because they can't.

Because the Bronco(s) are already in the pipeline for release.....

But you didn't hear that from me.

Yup, aware.  I was just poking fun because the new Blazer is the "Camaro" of SUV's (styling cues apparently) and everybody was losing their shi#.  No one who'd actually buy one, but shi# lost nonetheless.  So it would've made sense to name the new Mustang inspired SUV a Bronco - How dare they!! More lost shi#.

I don't imagine it (the Bronco) will be pretty.  At least no one will lose shi#.

Oh Baby!  I like it.

Jay's getting old...but I did like it when he dropped a couple of gears and hit it.  I'd take one like that.  Plenty of Oh Baby! to go around.
