Newbie getting a mustang.

Hi everyone!

Just for some background info: I currently study and live in Syracuse, NY. I am new to mustang and new to cars in general.

Current thoughts: 15 vs.14? v6 premium vs. gt

First question, should I get a 15 mustang or 14 mustang? Only by the looks 14 mustang is definitely better, especially with those fog lamps. Also I am all crazy about "gottahaveitgreen"(but I can go with other color too). But idk if there is major upgrades in 15 that I should pay attention to when making the choice?

Second question, should I get Eco/v6 with package/rear camera/audio/navigation/etc upgrades or a gt with only standards? I would like to keep the price at around 35k(max 36/37k?). Is v8 engine THAT much better compared to Eco/v6? I hear people around say it all the time that I should go for gt but I am still in college and don't know if I really need it atm.

Thanks for your time reading this and nice to meet you all!

Well this has been beaten to death in many threads. Welcome to the forum. Personally if i was you, i'd get a '14 GHIG GT Do you need NAV? if not then save the coin.

Simple If you plan on having it for awhile then pick the one you like the looks of the most! :-)

If you're still in college (under 25) you may want to consider insurance costs between V6 and GT. Not that it would stop me because I'd go V8 all the way but it's to be considered.

GHIG is a great color. If you like it go for it. Probably won't be back anytime soon.

GHIG (HD) won't be available on the 2015. if you gotta have it, you can only have it in 2013 & 2014! it took awhile for us to find a 2014 GT prem V8 auto GHIG this late in the model year. we swapped keys with a local dealer for our 2010 Red with white Shelby Cobra V8 coupe! i traded in a 2012 Mazda MX5 retractable hardtop for a 2014 GHIG V6 Prem auto vert MCA, CPO! absolutely love both!

Can you still order a new 2014 Mustang? I would think they dont biuld them anymore. I like the 2014 the best, thats why i bought mine. Plus i only paid $28k becouse they were making room for the 2015. Good luck with your choice, any Mustang would make a fun car to own!

You can not place a retail order for one but dealers would be happy to make you a great deal on a 2014 they have in stock.
