We're back at the "95% of owners aren't on the forums". Most people refit the original fitment tyres on their cars religiously every time. If the two cars were absolutely identical other than tyres and you got a knowledgeable buyer then fair enough, the Michelin car is the one to go for. In the real world though there will always be some other deciding factor (general condition, etc). Tyres are easy to change; kerbed wheels, dodgy electrics, race red paint...not so much ;)@Golden goner, when selling it'd be something I'd mention to the prospective buyer that it's got grippier tyres than the stock rubbish, if the option comes up 2 at the same price, youd go for the 'safer' one ;)!
I almost gave a fk about your post until the last bit :lol::lol:!!We're back at the "95% of owners aren't on the forums".

Plenty on here did...Tyres are easy to change but not many wanna shift £200 a corner after forking 30 odd on a car.
wonder how much a 2018MY with Magnetic dampers and active exhaust will cost ...£45K ??
Price list tabJust checked now and it seems that the Mustang catalogue is not there.:shrug:
They aint gonna sell Sync 3 as an optional extra surely?!I am guessing:
- Base V8 (Current PP suspension): £38,950
- Sync 3, NAV, Shaker: £995
- Heated wheel: £250
- Recaro: £995
- Carbon interior pack: £295
- 10-speed auto: £1995
- Active exhaust: £1195
- Magnetic ride: £995
- 19" Forged wheels: £495
- Rear Spoiler: £395
- Stripes, black roof, black mirror options blah blah.
I think MY18 with the good stuff will very easily become a 45k car for sure, maybe bit less or a bit more.
Still how much is an M4 with EDC and other tech options to bring it on parr and note it has less power and a crappy sounding engine, oh and they come with Pzero too.

also carbon interior pack at £300, are they giving us like a dash in carbon for that because regardless, that's cheap as sh1t, I've seen some of the 'carbon trim' options on 'certain other cars' it's a few k. The dash after market for a S550.1 is $900
That explains it, so yeah, Nav + Shaker, S3 as standard.What I mean by SYNC 3 is just the infotainment package such as NAV/Shaker, I sure suspect SYNC 3 will be default on all cars, cannot see them offering that crappy no display one any more.
I am guessing Ford Interior Trim package is not real carbon, but carbon effect, hence the low price. ;)
If its real carbon then yes probably around 1k extra.
Well I know guys who make carbon stuff with real carbon in Bulgaria, great prices, but as of now Mustang stuff does not interest them.That explains it, so yeah, Nav + Shaker, S3 as standard.
If it's dipped/fake carbon/carbon print whatever way they do it, then that explains the cost, was going to say if you know a way to get real carbon that cheap, a lot of people would be very interested in a chat with you :lol::lol:!
Should have told mac before he dropped 3k on a hood!!! :lol:Well I know guys who make carbon stuff with real carbon in Bulgaria, great prices, but as of now Mustang stuff does not interest them.
But to give you an idea of how good the price is, I have a full roof in genuine carbon with laquer for the M3 coming, £570 shipped and the quality is superb.
A roof is a lot of carbon and really hard to make due to its size and curvature. Saves me 10kg up top, wings being done as well, a further 6kg saving.
Aiming to get the M3 down to 1290kg, it needs to be faster!
Should not, they being at it a while in BM world, was originally for race cars, but they realised demand was higher for street cars and they can charge more for such applications, though of course the quality has to go up as well as us road car owners are a lot more picky.Should have told mac before he dropped 3k on a hood!!! :lol:
Hopefully u don't get a 'certain companies' issue with the CF and it peeling off from the laquer (someones CF weave flew off from the hood!)
Before forums and me becoming geeky about cars, like I am with motorcycles, I bought a Citroen DS for about £1300. Around the mid 90s.Plenty on here did...
I'm no mechanical expert or car guy but when buying second hand cars (which is all i've ever done pre-Mustang) I will spend a fair amount of time looking round for things that don't look right. Tyre tread i'd take into account when negotiating (which I'm also sh*t at) but manufacturer, not really. Maybe I should :shrug:
PS. at time of order, race red was #2 on my list
