The 2015 Mustang is just like the 2010 Mustang... wait one more year, if you know what I mean.

Thanks for all the responses guys! I will keep my 2014 for now... The Focus ST looks good but I think I would only want to have one car.

Its up to you bro! The added weight and the front end and slower 1/4 mile times kill it for me, plus the 2014 just looks better " the 60's retro guys agree" than the 2015 In my opinion. I don't think you can buy a new 2014 at this point any ways sorry. Maybe used

Not really, something tells me they aren't going to bump the HP 80 extra & put a new transmission in the 2016 like they did on the 11........LOL !! Scott

New 2014's are indeed out there....you just can't order them. Occasionally I do searches on the Ford site by zip code and select year, model, and trans. I've found quite a few GT Premium coupes and convertibles still available in the northeast. Black and SGM seem to be the predominate colors remaining but I've seen others as well....even found a couple of GT/CS's recently.

Ford is still offering $3K cash back, and dealers are want to move them to make room so additional discounts can be had. There's no better time to buy an S197 than now.

love the 14 that's why I bought it before even looking at the 15 (other then web drawings and spy shots)


the retro is now gone, sure there will be people who like them heck I see them on the road in upstate New York where we have tons of salt snow and ice. Mine is tucked away in the garage till spring...


good luck either way..

I saw a base DIB GT drive by me today and I am definitely not a fan of it with those wheels. Looked really soft! Made me glad I got my 14.

I think you are making a smart choice. Don't get me wrong the 2015 is a great car, but I test drove the eco boost and it drives smooth and handling is for sure an improvement, but it lacks that V8 power that I know I would miss. I loved the interior though, and I am not 100% sold on the looks of it. I am so happy with my 2014 I don't think the the eco boost would have kept me this satisfied. But I think you or someone said it perfectly, its smaller and handles more like a sports car and I want a muscle car! I remember shifting and my left foot would hit the bottom of the floor and I am an average size guy (6'1 185lbs). Keep the 14'!!!!

The only thing I really notice on the 15 is how low the rear end appears. Does anybody else see this? Looks to be sagging but might just be an illusion due to the body change. I would like to see one with just a little rake to it.

you are posting in the 11-14 section so most are going to lean towards those years compared to the 2015.

I like the 2015, i was planning on getting one this spring but decided to keep my blown 2011 just for the fact i don't need another new money pit. I'm gonna hold on to my 2011 for another year or two. But I think the 2015 has a lot to offer and is a nice looking car.

I have a base model 14 GT with an automatic. Recently I drove both a base model 15 GT with automatic and a premium model 15 GT with automatic and there was not enough difference in power or ride to make me trade. I did like the seats and brakes better than on my 14 but that's about it. I also still think the 14 looks a little better than the 15's.

My opinion is keep the 14.

Agree. They need to work the bugs out of the IRS and I'll get one in a few years.
