What's the deal with how the motor looks, I never understood this. Sound I get, car in general I get . Personally I would prefer no cover let it sit in it's mechanical glory for what it really is. The only time you can see the motor is when changing the oil or looking for issues.

I also like the 5.0 engine cover on the '11-'14s. It is nicely styled. The one in the '15 seems less "designed" to me as well.

I'd be excited if there was a little more "finish" to the materials, but I think this is the look. As much as I love the 2015, I like the underhood appearance of the '11-'14s better than the '15. The '15 looks less "nicely laid out" to me.

Or when you've got the hood open at a car show

I agree. I would rather have no covers. But if they are putting a cover on it then it should look decent. The current cover looks better. Should have just left it alone.

The prosthetic kidney under the hood is an eyesore.

If that is from the Charlotte Banquet I am pretty sure I saw him taking the photo, hehe. Don't forget about the Pony under the hood's sound dampening they revealed during the Banquet. Maybe it (and the other hidden ponies) will help make up for the engine cover?

...and I thought the umbilical cord sound tube was bad.

Look at that mess plugged into the intake tube!!? lmao


Can't believe it comes with a line lock lol.
Meanwhile see what happens when you going into ford for warranty work and tell them you were doing a burnout.

Right, seems like Ford is going all out on this car!

Don't really care for the overflow tank or the engine cover. It definitely looks cramped in there & dare I say not very uniform.

I'm sure the reality of the improved performance will be the trade off!

BTW, what did the link above show? Let me know. I'm working all day (assuming the antibiotics I'm currently on for my messed up small intestines don't make me feel more sick than I already do )

It was 5 Oh Brian.

I'll post up some great details tomorrow (unless Jeff/05FordGT beats me to it).

2015 Mustang order banks are visible to us dealers now (have been for several days).

The 2 biggest reveals I've seen in the order banks are 1) that the limited edition 50th Anniversary GT gets its own unique body code (P8R instead of just P8C like a regular GT coupe), and 2) there is a Shelby offering showing in there (body code P8J).

Again, I'll post up some great info tomorrow (today is a family day, so I don't have time to list what I've learned right this minute).

I got good info I will post momentarily!!! Prices on options of the car and codes for said opitons. I don't have pricing on the car itself (base pricing), but its a start. The way the CONCEPTS order system works, if the car isn't abie to be ordered, they won't price it out entirely. But I can use the help screen to find out options (and codes), and pricing of the options, as well as paint codes.

Good stuff I found out and I will start a new thread shortly.

I predict an increase of $1950 to the base price. Hmm maybe $1965 actually
