Hi Everyone,

I am the lucky owner of a 2025 Dark Horse Blue Ember. Badge number S0251.. I have had it for about 6 months and am keen to read about other experiences. I am in Melbourne Australia. I only have a couple minor grumbles as Ford left the handbrake on the left hand side and the cup holders get in the way when changing gears. I have already had one recall for the steering wheel hand sensors and it doesnt seem to be as senstitive now..

This is my daily driver. I transitioned from a Kia EV6 GT but didnt enjoy the electric vehicle. Whilst it is extremely quick in a straight line (0-100kph in 3.6 sec), range anxiety and motion sickness were major issues. It didnt handle as nice as the mustang and that V8 sound cant be replaced by a fake stereo noise..

What are your favorite ten things you have found on your new ride?
 
The sound would easily be number 1. I couldnt help myself and installed a H pipe, just for that extra boost.
I actually like driving a manual again and when there is a bit of power, that enhances the enjoyment
The car looks very nice which gives some pride to ownership. I often see people checking it out when I park at shopping centres.
The digital dashboard is fine. I have seen a lot of commentary against them but most of the haters dont own the car.
Comfort is pretty good. Whilst visibilty is a bit limited, I quote fonzy from Happy days "I dont need to see where I have been, I want to see how cool I look getting there.."
