I'm curious about the thoughts on the PP on either the Eco or GT:

How much would you pay for a track ready suspension package?
What would you want to see for content?
If it were special order only (meaning only available on a retail order) would you be willing to wait for it?
Would you prefer additional options for Wheel/Tire Packs, Adj/Non Adj Suspension, Brake Systems (Carbon, 2 Piece,etc.)
Should exhaust be an option?

I'll start:

As good as the PP is, it is too street oriented. I would pay $5-7K for a full on suspension package with some serious tire size and compound. It should include an adjustable suspension etc. I think that is a fair price, honestly I think the PP is too cheap but I'm not complaining.

I would like an option such as a Competition Prep Package, still a street car but hard core chassis, maybe provisions for a customer bolt-in legal roll bar, harness attachment points. This would be a $10K option.

I for the life of me don't understand why Ford does not offer Exhaust systems on the order sheet. Legally they can't do a Track Key but exhaust should be an option.

I'm tired of the Special addition Mustangs, they have a bunch of goodies but usually they are on a loaded car save for the Boss. My hope is the GT350 will be a truer version and not just a loaded ($$$) car with some special engine.

You can buy a track going version straight from Ford for about $100K. I just want the option to at least get some of the good stuff. :shrug:

I would pay an additional $2255 for a performance pack on an automatic GT convertible. Ah, maybe next year.

For sure the $5K option!

I also agree on the exhaust options.

Stock suspension for me.

I'd pay $2495 for a 25 HP/25 TQ power bump as an "option" in a heartbeat.

That's a lot of money for just 25HP/25TQ...

A factory stock option. Able to be financed with new car purchase and FULLY under warranty.

No, I wouldn't pay that much for aftermarket.

The results are interesting. Granted the sample size is tiny and the data is skewed because perceptions effect choices. If Ford had the PP and a 1LE type package that was just reviewed in the magazine I can almost guarantee the results would be different.

This poll does say that Ford is only missing 20% of it's customer base. It's pretty good but I'm in that 20%.

We need more votes! :)

I see people talking about sway-bar and spring changes all the time... I'm surprised there are more like me that are voting for the stock suspension.

I'll get a strut-tower brace (probably the one from the LE), but only for looks at car shows, not to help with stiffening the chassis.

$5k track suspension and rubber. Like a 1LE package if sorts? That's my vote.

Living in Western Washington, an Ultra High Performance Summer tire is a 4 month/year option. I'd like to have a square setup with all season tire option.

I understand what you are saying, but don't really grasp why. Are you strickly talking an aftermarket kit, or a dealer/delivery installed one ?
Again, are asking as a new car buyer..? Or as an already owner of a s550..?

Otherwise, the GT350 fits the bill, essentially mirroring your need & wants.

Wouldnt pay too much for it. I can build another Factory Five Cobra that will outperform the car in every way for less money and have way more adjustability.
