'15 Mustang modifications/upgrades

What sort of mods do you guys plan on doing?

Im planning on upgrading the brakes/suspension on mine with parts from the GT and ecoboost performance packs.

When the car is finally out of warranty, I will put on Steeda cradle bracing, lowering springs, and the biggest sway bars they sell. Under the hood it will get a supercharger kit and larger radiator.

Its my first new mustang, my previous car was a 89 notch. Its a huge upgrade from a fox Mustang. Its fast, comfortable, and it handles good. It will get 30 mpg on a road trip (on 87 octane) and averages about 23 around town. I havent taken it to any track events yet but its fun to drive on twisty roads.

This. Do that suspension now! It won't affect your warranty, and if you're going Steeda, you're as close to OEM as it gets (same for Roush).

Yes I believe even with the base model you get sync with Bluetooth audio.

I you can afford it I would recommend the premium trim. It's well worth the extra cost. The only thing is it's not available on the v6.

I picked up my new 5.0 Premium on 29 December. Put on a Gibson exhaust on the 30th. Installed Steeda F/R adjustable sway bars a few days later. Window tint and some engine trim to be painted. Then I'm done until 36,000 miles. Great car!
