Enjoy the ride.
This, I REALLY don't like that grill.

I've seen a similar grille on '13-14 coupes over the last couple weeks. At least three different cars. Does anyone know if it's aftermarket or a limited edition package from Ford?

For the first time, that crease along the side looks out of place to me. Especially that little bit at the rear. Is that supposed to serve some aerodynamic purpose, or is just there as foo-foo?

The PP grille they used up through 09 had driving lights and looked completely different. The sides of the corral are parallel. The pony/corral they are using on 13/14 looks very similar in shape and design to the one on the 15.

Still a corral grille, been used on the modern Mustang V6s since 2006. It's been used on the V8 Mustangs since 1965 though, so the heritage is there.

The 99-04 had them too.

I'm sure it can be easily removed if someone doesn't like it.

Did you place an order ? ( have an order # and money changed hands )
Everything I've read stated the order banks for the 2015 MY will open on 13 May..
Paying over MSRP = stupid.

Kinda nosy for someone who should mind their own business, aren't you?

He's stuck between selling a car he can really make some money on and trying to take care of a good customer. He came up with $2000 over MSRP, which is probably fair. I told him I would take the car unless MSRP turned out to be some insane number.

It's a Kona Blue automatic.
Sweet, JonW! I can’t wait until the order banks open. I know she’ll love it.

I think it looks good - it's definitely growing on me. Very much looking forward to test driving a GT hopefully with the track package once they come out. Won't be trading mine in anytime soon, but very curious to see how the new one compares.

I want one as well..and would be willing to order one the minute the order banks open. But I'm NOT willing to pay MORE than MSRP. I'm not even willing to pay MSRP. I WOULD order with X-Plan. However, I can pretty much guarantee there is NO dealer out there willing to do that. They are already planning their vacations on the ADM they are going to get off the 50th Anniv. models. If there IS a dealer out there willing..let me know. I called 10 of them already and they all pretty much laughed at me.

I know one dude that won't be ordering the 2015 370ZFUSTANG but let the over- pricing begin. I think its awesome people pay over MSRP for cars. The sweet stench is perfuming the automotive industry while the dealerships salesmen are laughing there a$$ off at the consumers who are more than happy to get hit dry and not even request lube. More please! Ha ha ha

The salesmen salivate at opportunities like this to make big profits on the desperate customers to have the cars first. I love it! Ba ha ha ha!

Hmm lets see you can't order one until may 15th then the order won't be placed until July you can expect delivery some time the end of September or early October
2k over sticker must come with Vaseline or you really want it that bad (just saying)
my opinion sorry

I think $2k over MSRP will be a steal from most dealers. I expect to see $5k to $10k over. Luckily....there are dealers that will sell for MSRP
