Base GT
GT track pack
Recaros
Spoiler delete, if it's available
6 Speed manual


After that, it would have to really jump out at me.

Man I hope Glass Roof is an option,
GT Premium
Track Pack
Recaros
As much as I love Deep Impact Blue, I think this generation will look great in Race Red.

Engine:
-5.0 V8

Trim:
-Premium

Options:
-GT Track Pack
-BLIS with cross traffic
-Reverse sensing system
-MyFord Touch
-HID headlamps
-Recaro seats

Transmission:
-6 Speed manual

Colors:
-Race Red

I would go with the 20" wheels from the Dearborn car as well.

Also, no idea why people are saying this new car needs to be lowered at all. It looks to me like the gaps in the wheel wells are much less than previous models. Just my opinion, but a Mustang should not be slammed to the ground.

I need to stay outta this forum. The more I see the 15 the more I want one, and the wife already said NO!

But I'll play the game:
  • 5.0
  • 6-speed
  • Premium Trim level
  • Ruby Red
  • Track Pack
  • Recarros
  • Heated/Cooled seats
  • BLIS with cross traffic
  • Reverse sensing system
  • MyFord Touch
  • HID headlamps

Just load it up.

Same here. She's making us save up for a house instead. Women. So irrational when it comes to money.

GT premium

-GT Track Pack
-Adaptive Cruise Control
-Reverse sensing system
-MyFord Touch
-HID headlamps
-Heated/Cooled seats

-6 Speed Automatic with paddle shifters DEPENDING ON THE QUALITY OF SHIFTS

Race Red

HOWEVER it is my plan to wait at least 6 months or so until there is additional information about Hight HP performance packages to come. I would love 550+ ponies with a warrantee.

I'm really interested to see how well the paddle shifters work in the Mustang. I was watching videos on the new 2015 Aston Martin V12 Vantage and every single one mentioned how terrible the shifts were. Boggled my mind that a car that beautiful and expensive would have such a terrible gearbox. I know a lot of cheaper cars now have paddle shifters and I imagine the driving experience isn't that great either. Hopefully Ford does well with theirs though. It's a cool idea to put them in the automatic models. Would make them more fun to drive for sure...as long as the shifts are pretty quick.

Don't expected too much. The way understand it traditional automatic are not as good as double clutch ones. There are a very few expensive exemptions (AMG?) but I doubt the budget minded transmission on the Mustang will be to enthusiast expectations. Some will have fun with the paddles regardless.

True, I'll expect for the best either way. I know twin clutch gearboxes are the best when it comes to paddle shifters, but I know there are a couple really high end exotics out there with single clutch gearboxes that are highly regarded. I can't remember which cars they are though, haha.

According to what was shared at the Dearborn event, there will not be a glass roof. If you look at the double bubble, I can't imagine how much money and effort it would take to make a piece of glass that would flow with that.

The 2015 is my next car -

race red or magnetic
5.0L V8 w/manual

premium
3.55 rear
whatever package gets the selectable driver modes
spoiler delete
MyFordTouch

19" wheels with all-season tires (I'd love the 20s but not sure I want to fork over the $$ and deal with having to separately buy all-seasons)


This car will be my new daily driver.

My plan is to pay down my loan as much as possible on my GT500 and then qualify for another loan so I can get an ecoboost 2.3 liter four with the paddle shifter auto. I would get as few options as possible to keep the price low. I would get the Mustang in Triple Yellow. The black wheels would really make the yellow pop. I would then drive the snot out of it and then trade it in the next year on a GT with a manual trans.

2015 Cobra Jet. Bone stock drag car. It might be cool to keep up and surpass the COPO.

Polycarbonate? The Vette top isn't perfectly smooth is it? I've seen the top made at the factory, but I don't remember?

I'll chime in.
5.0 GT premium
Track pack
BLIS
Reverse sensing and camera.
Manual trans
Heated & cooled seats
My Ford Touch
HID lights

Orange or yellow or Guard

I'm really not a fan of the new colors so I need to see some color chips. My current car is GHIG so any change is going to be difficult.

Painted either Competition Orange, Oxford White, or Deep Impact Blue. Although Magnetic and Guard cannot be ruled out. Would need to see those in person.

We'll know more once the order guide breaks, but the whispers from unveils suggest we won't get a glass roof on this generation.

+1 for me if my 2014 got wrecked or something. Not sure on color, but these options only.
