The Electric Stang with manual transmission. Can someone explain that messed up combo.

And the Stang SUV titled Mach-E that gets unveiled 11/17.

I’m intrigued by a manual in an electric car. There is absolutely no reason for it and probably slows it down, but there is some hope I guess for the future and people who still like a stick. I’ve only ever owned manual cars.

Definitely not considered a response to Blazer. This is their full on EV play. Yes, I know they had a Focus EV for awhile, but fact is, the Focus EV came about because Magna (huge Tier I supplier) developed the car, knocked on Ford’s door and said “look what we can do” and Ford said “cool. We can sell that.”

The Mach E is an all-electric CUV, intended to compete with the Tesla Model Y (whenever that finally shows up) but sporting Mustang design cues and using the Mustang name as a halo.

I admit I’m there enjoying this. The Mustang is now like the Adam Vinatteri of sports cars. Instead of letting the heritage retire with honor, Fords shamelessly using the name and badge as a marketing ploy.

BTW - If my sources are correct, there will be another shoe that drops when Ford publicly announces the Mach E at the LA Auto Show. I am bound by an embargo and can say no more about it until the embargo lifts, shortly before the show.

Yeah I’m intrigued by a manual EV just don’t understand it since most EV are connected to a CVT or the like. There is no “winding out a gear” or sound to know when to shift. So curious if it’s a shift light or fake sound to know when to shift. I want to know more about the manual aspect of it. Otherwise nope.

To each their own.

I can say it’s a face only a mother could love. But again. To each their own.

Yeah after seeing that I agree. Not an answer to the Blazer. Forgot about that Tesla Y. Makes more sense then.

I’m sure your sources are correct. And curious what it is. I have a few ideas. But time will tell.

Just curious how the All-Electric COPO Camaro was set up. I thought I remember reading that there was a 3-speed transmission coupled with the EV motor. Maybe I’m confused. I don’t remember if it was an auto or manual.

What is the Orange color on the 50th called? I see on some accessory websites there is a color called crush. Is this it or as close as i'll get? I've used the search feature without luck. Thanks!

Crush is the color from the 50th Hot Wheels and 2019+ Camaros.

The orange in our vinyl is a unique and unlisted GM color, the name is unknown.

The brake caliper color is...

Thanks Kaizer! I like that - "GM Color Unknown" and "Orange U Tempted"! Very clever. Have you found any accessories in "GM Color Unknown"?

Welcome and lol. I went back and edited my post. There is a 3M color that is very close but no exact matches have been found yet.

I was thinking a cool look might be the splitter and add-on side rockers in GM Unknown. I saw a ZL1 in a picture post that had the accent color (light blue in his case) in a stripe along the edges of the splitter and side rockers. It looked great!
