What Makes The New Ford Mustang Shelby GT350 So Good At The Track | New & Used Auto Dealer

http://www.sonju.com/inventory/view/Make/Ford/New/SortBy0/

On the previous generation Mustang—and particularly with the Boss 302 Laguna Seca Edition—Ford Motor Company engineers demonstrated just how capable they could make a vehicle with a live rear axle.

And while current Mustangs sport independent rear suspension, the Ford Performance team took the setup another big step forward. Its Ponies will now pack the potent MagneRide system—developed by Delphi Automotive and first used on the Cadillac Seville STS—which uses dampers filled with iron-infused hydraulic fluid and electric current to make thousands of tiny suspension adjustments per second. Today, MagneRide is seen on everything from the C7 Corvette and Cadillac's ATS-V, to uber exotics like the Ferrari 458.

That's a big step up from a bit of kit which wouldn't be out of place on a farm truck.

To insure drivers get all the performance the trick tech can offer, Ford Performance went and made the Mustang's already-stiff chassis even stiffer by adding an aluminum tower brace and carbon reinforcements in the grill opening. Of course, if you're going to go, you're going to want to stop, so beefy Brembo calipers—six-piston in the front, four in the rear—are mated to massive cross-drilled rotors—394- front, and 380-millimeter rear—at each corner. According to the press material, they're "the largest rotors Ford has ever put on a production Mustang."

Chevrolet Impala’s Dark Side: Midnight Edition Heads to Production | New & Used Auto Dealer

http://www.sonju.com/inventory/view/Make/Chevrolet/Model/Impala/SortBy0/
Chevrolet announced today it will sell a special edition blacked-out package for the Chevrolet Impala based on a concept shown at the 2014 SEMA Show in Las Vegas.

Arriving in dealerships early this summer, the Impala Midnight Edition is outfitted to give the full-size sedan a more dramatic, sinister look.

“Since its introduction in 2014, Impala has become a benchmark for Chevrolet car design,” said Steve Majoros, Chevrolet director of car marketing. “The Midnight Edition further strengthens the Impala’s dramatic, head-turning styling.”

The Midnight Edition includes:
Jet Black exterior, including body color mirrors
19-inch machine-faced aluminum wheels with black accents
Black grille and surround
Front and rear black Chevrolet bowtie
Jet Black interior
Sport pedals
Black rear spoiler.

Customers can purchase the Midnight Edition package on 1LT, 2LT and LTZ trim levels. Package prices range from $995 to $1,595 above the starting retail price.

The Impala Midnight Edition will be available with a choice of two powertrains – the standard 2.5L iVLC with stop/start technology and a 3.6L V-6 that is the most powerful naturally aspirated engine in the segment.

The Midnight Edition will be available for the 2016 model year, although a small number of 2015 Midnight Editions will be produced in the 2LT trim level with the standard 2.5L engine.

Since the Chevrolet Impala’s redesign in 2014, it has been named the Cars.com Best Car of 2014 and one of Kelley Blue Book’s 12 Best Family Cars for 2014.
