I like the 641 wheels most.
1. Pretty much every new car these days can do so, to the best of my knowledge.
2. There's the Shaker Pro audio, which is included on the premium trim order code.
3. Apparently not, at least at launch. This was confusing me as well, as the footnote for the 6-piston Brembos implies that it is.

Just checked the Toyota website. You're right.

Wow. They sure don't look like it in the flesh.

This is making my mouth water, I think i'm ready to jump back into a Mustang!

Thinking a DIB or Black GT Premium with perf package would be nice.

Sync is shown as standard on all cars now.

Looks like I won't be getting the 50th package because I want the Recaros.
Couldn't you just add Recaros later?

Yeah it would be expensive like Boomer said. I probably won't get a premium because I don't want leather. If I can find someone who wants to switch their cloth seats to leather I will trade.

I'm used to leather seats, but you guys make it sound like the leather Ford uses is pretty bad.

Well, the leather Ford uses *isn't* the best, but I usually just prefer the coolness and grippier texture of cloth...

I hope everyone who is looking to buy one with an automatic knows, Ford will be changing to 8 speed automatics at the end of the 2015 run or for the 2016 models. From what i've been reading....

Where are you reading this? Ford has never historically changed a major component, such as a transmission, during a model year run.

Looks like the V6 starts at $24,445. Price increase of $1090 over the 2014.

I could see it for '16MY possibly, but not during the '15MY run. I don't expect any changes to the transmission until a few years down the road personally.

It might have been for the 2016 model that starts production near the end of 2015. Ford is doing the automatic with GM. I also just found out, Ford and GM design the transmission in our (wifes 2014) Ford Edge. (I haven't read or seen very many transmission problems in the Ford Edge.)

Anyone have the price list for all models? The presser I've seen only mentions the V6 starting price.

I wouldn't be surprised if this does happen, thanks to CAFE, but where are they gonna get an 8-speed? ZF, like they did with the 6R80? They aren't developing one on their own, at least to my knowledge.

I know that Ford is developing a 10-speed RWD (!) transmission with GM (as well as a FWD 9-speed transaxle), but I haven't heard anything about them sharing the 8L90 with Ford.

Imagine a 10speed auto...
It would sound like the video games where the car just keeps shifting over and over and over.

Well, the 8-speed auto in the latest BMWs gets rave reviews, with no complaints of constant shifting. It also gives those cars better acceleration, better fuel economy and lower emissions compared the the manual (the latter is very important here in the UK, as annual road fund licence (tax) is based on CO2 emissions). I hope the same can be said of the 10-speed if/when its available for Mustang

As for when? Well, as Overboost said, I would expect it to be made available at the start of a model year.

There will always be improvements year on year, but I wouldn't let than put me off buying a '15 now.
