  1. from the article: Ford unveiled the facelifted Expedition earlier this year, with the 2015 model losing its 5.4-liter V8 in favor of the carmaker’s 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6. To highlight this and the large SUV’s other attributes, Ford has teamed up with Tjin Edition, DUB Magazine and Vacaar to create three custom Expeditions that will be on show at SEMA 2014 next week. The most performance oriented of the trio is the dark gray Tjin Edition Expedition, which has been boosted to 405 hp thanks to a Vortech charge air cooler, remapped ECU and side-exiting Magnaflow exhaust. 5 pictures and full article .

  5. I like it in black. from the article: The 2015 Ford Mustang GT in these pictures has a metallic black paint job with grey GT wheels, and it looks really good.

  10. Is this car worth $20K, seems like a lot of work to restore it.

  16. Ford is headed in the right direction with its new lightweight cars, hope this tech will trickle down to their performance vehicles.
