If you think the stock wheel is so good, you need to get a GT500 wheel. It sh*ts all over the stock wheel. The grips are thicker and Alcantara wrapped, and the leather that is on top/bottom is a much higher grade than the stock wheel - much grainier and thicker.

Well Alcantara is fake suede... I'll stick with my smooth leather wheel.
The suede doesn't feel right on my manly hands

If the shift **** doesn't count as a performance feature, then I choose my 401A shift ****. If it does count, then I dunno. Too much to like on the car to choose one thing. The sunglasses clip on the passenger visor? The shaker pro?

Yeah until you've driven it you have no idea. And every single race car out there has an Alcantara steering wheel - this wheel comes stock on the GT500 and the Boss wheel is *entirely* Alcantara.

Whatever.

Anyways, my Glass Roof too!

the idea of even a real suede steering wheel scares me, think about it, oil from hands plus suede = gross steering wheel.

I have pretty sweaty hands (can't help it, hated it growing up), but I wash my hands every time before I get in my car. Even on super hot days like today, it's fine. I really don't rest my hands on the suede parts either, when cruising I usually hold the wheel at the 7 o'clock position.

Mine has this little button just above the mirror, and when I push it the top goes down. That's got to be the best blood pressure known to man.

The 5.0L engine. Without it I wouldn't have looked twice. I love the body style and color of my 2014 but the 5.0L is what drew me to her. Sure its performance related but its also symbolic. I also own an 88 GT and it just reminds me of when I drove that around as a young kid. My only regret was not buying my 88 brand new so here I am 26 years later.

The drivetrain is my favorite part. I wouldn't have bought a mustang if it wasn't for the 5.0 DOHC engine and the SRA out back. Never been a big mustang fan, unless it was a Saleen S281.

Electronics Package. The iPad style screen with the ability to have personal photos is a nice touch. The package is so much more than a GPS. Having the ability to call an operator and have them help locate an address you need, and then have it show automatically in your navigation system is amazing. While many people simply use siri and an iphone for directions, it just not the same as having it download directly to to your screen. Plus all the other technology features too numerous to mention, the overall package gives the Mustang a very high-end feel.

The mycolor probably. I set it to white gauges with ice blue halos with everything else in the interior ice blue. I really complements the black exterior really well. Everyone I've ever for taken a ride in my car at night has complemented me on the ice blue lights.

Other than that, it would have to be the placement of each of the 12 volt outlets. Right above the center air vents and in the center console is perfect. Many other cars have it right in front of the shifter, and anything big plugged in blocks the shifter a little bit. My dads car has this problem.

I've actually thought of another one. The cup holder cover that you can flip up and have a flat surface behind the shifter. That was really good thinking by the interior designers.
