Sad to see the Turn Signals removed, Im going with the 4/11 version as being the most reliable

Gt has no bump in HP or weight difference? Camaro SS will be the performance king for another year. :(

Mustang is selling well...so Ford has no reason to do anything.

BUT that doesn't mean they shouldn't. To me it's just basically being lazy and sitting on the product for another year.

Too bad Chevy isn't even advertising their new Camaro or the rewards/acclaims it's gotten...they still have the '15 on their main site as the main banner on the Camaro site.

Refresh is a while away.

Well, now there's two 2017 Mustang Order Guides posted; one dated 04/04/16 from FMC of Canada; one dated 04/11/16 from Ford Division. Content differs in the two. Which, if either, are authentic? And if authentic, why isn't this information known by other sources (e.g., Ford website, Ford dealers, major auto magazines, etc.)?
Both are authentic. Neither are likely without typos, etc.. Think of them as drafts.

Its no surprise they aren't available elsewhere (yet). They undoubtedly came from people who would be in hot water for making them public. Anonymous sources passing them to a 3rd party who posted.

This site is always the first place to learn about anything 6th Gen mustang related. It's authentic.

On that note, it would have been nice if they made the new wheels in the black accent package look better, perhaps I need to see them from a different view but right now they just don't look good at all.
Pretty sure these are the wheels in the wild.

Had a feeling it wouldn't be long until you ordered one! My GT/CS came in right before Easter.

Stopping by the dealership in a few hours to order mine. On the fence about the Black Accent Package. I don't want 19" wheels but like everything else. Wonder if I could sell the wheels easily???

It's your choice, but looking at that build you're doing yourself a disservice not getting Premier Trim (68B). It should be standard IMO.

For the price difference I'd expect the SS to be faster.
I'm a mustang fan.. but for the price difference. You get a stronger manual transmission, no wheel hop, and more hp and tq.

You put in the cost to add that hp, eliminate wheel hop, and then stronger transmission, the mustang would be right in the same price range of the camaro. Remember..parts and labor! Camaro comes with it installed already. :doh:

Bravo to chevy, just wish ford wouldn't sit idle. :shrug:

Absolutely should not be standard. I wouldn't own one without it but people should have choices.

I'm for more individual options and fewer "bundles/standards".

Is it really worth the $395? Doesn't sound like you get much from the description? Ebony w/"Metal Gray" Stitch...you think that's the same as Ebony on the 16s?

The Premier Trim with Color Accent Group includes a charcoal black interior environment with color-accented seats, Unique door trim and aluminum I/P panel. Available on the Mustang GT Premium model.

I'm a Mopar guy so you want frustration with somebody sitting idle....Dodge has that in the bag. It goes in cycles, Chevy waited until the S550 was out before dropping the Camaro6, so when the 18 S550 comes out Chevy fans will have to wait at least two years before Chevy updates the Camaro to match or beat the S550. Other than the Scat Packs and the Hellcat, Dodge has left the 5.7 out to dry in the Challenger.

Yes, it's worth it. It is a very rare option to find on lots.

It includes the following:

  • Different leather on seating surfaces with an additional third row of stitching
  • Soft touch upper door trim panel
  • Soft touch stitched dashboard
  • Unique mid-door trim panel with color-accented stitching

It's possible that I missed a couple little things, as I'm unsure if the shifter boot or e-brake boots are different.

Here are some threads to check out:
