Related to another current thread, anyone planning on, considering or hoping to replace their current non-Mustang ride with a 2015? Would you have considered a 2014 or does the 2015 tip the balance?

I have an E46 BMW M3 and the 2015 is seriously tempting, finally seeming to be the complete performance coupe package. "Ifs" might be price and whether the driving is actually as good as the specs imply.

Now if Ford were to roll out a hot S-550-based performance sedan for those of us enthusiasts in a family way...color me sold

I've always wondered why Ford doesn't bring the Falcon to the US.







And yes, that does say Boss 335 on it.

I have a 2012 Audi s4 and I am seriously considering replacing it with a 2015. I had a 2010 but got rid of it because I felt a bit of egg on face for not waiting for the 5.0 and brembo package. Plus I didn't love the sra on Boston's potholed and messed up roads. Got the s4 for awd and I always wanted to try dct. Have missed it since, sure the s4 is fast and built extremely well but I miss fords sync (don't like mmi iPod functionality at all), manual, and the v8 rumble. I expect the 2015 to close the gap in some refinement and features. I am going to weigh it against a a 435 xdrive (the responsible choice for ne winters) or potentially stretch my budget for an m4. Tho at this point I don't really see the need for emptying my bank account for an m4 as the gt350 should be priced below it. The big IF is driving all of them and the direction they go with the gt350. If it is a boss replacement with no frills track performance I'm mind I will respect the hell out of it but pass. Right now it looks like gt might be the best of all worlds for my needs and is def the front runner. I'm planning on ordering in the fall for delivery in dec as a Christmas present to myself.

Sounds like the 2015 GT with Track Pack is faster than the Boss 302 was, and that was fast. Add in the great increase in refinement and capability (IRS, etc.) I suspect that would be a compelling choice. The GT can be plushed out pretty well too for DD service whereas I suspect the GT350 will be more of a track and weekend backroad beast.

As for NE snow duty, with today's traction and stability nannies, along with a good dedicated set of winter tires, even a 400+hp RWD car can do surprisingly well, not AWD S4 well perhaps, but probably good enough in most instances.

Can't wait to start seeing reviews, or actual seat/wheel time to see if it lives up to its promise.

I have a 2006 Acura TSX and I love it. It has been the best car. It still is.
I will turn over 150,000 miles today. I don't plan on replacing it. I plan on adding a 2015 Mustang to it and keeping the Acura as my daily commuter. Then get the Mustang out when I feel showing off a bit.
