When I had the chance to meet Hau Thai Tang, metioned one of the design challenges was designing the car for the 18" wheel package. The reason was, they had to size the wheel wells for snow chain clearance (does anyone even use those anymore???)
Hey, don't hate....I have my snow chains lying on the garage floor just waiting for my new stang...

I guess they still put them on "in 'dem northern parts".............but certainly not on a mustang :nono: Mind you, they have snowmobiles so .....

Im used to 60's cars(Firebirds and Camaros with BIG hoods), it looks exactly the same out the dash and hood as the originals, I likey.
Thats what I really like about it too. Reminds me of days spent riding in my buddies 69 Mach 1. Oh what fun !

I have the Shaker 500, and I think it sounds great. I did add some Polk rear speakers to it though and now it sounds even better

Years it will last?
Probably minimum 5, unless sales go horribley south.

Look for colour changes and minor exterior/wheel combo changes on Special editions etc.
Just like the previous generations.
Its a good formula to follow

You added the Polks, or replaced the OEM speakers with them?

Mike replaced his OEM rear deck speakers with Polk coaxials. This will be my first mod, as the rear speakers are usually a big bang for the buck upgrade for factory stereos.
