Official: 2018 Ford Mustang Refresh Detailed! (Options/Features, Specs, Photos, Info)

This one looks pretty good. Maybe White Stripes on Lightning / Kona would fix the issues I have with the new hood. Damn, seems like I have to see a not OF one in person

The EB PP wheels looks so much nicer than the GT PP wheels, if only they were wider.

They don't need to be any wider,it's only a 4 banger for god's sake:doh::doh:

So it looks like export market could be happy, seems all 10-speeds globally will be 3.55 torsen, so the exports will now come with Torsen and no more traction lok.

I don’t know for sure where I saw/read it, but I thought the Auto ran more efficiently (for city travel) in 3.15 vs 3.55? Anyone have any info on that?

Export models all get 3.55, we don't get final ratio options like in the US. But to be honest the 3.55 is a good all rounder, best mix of performance and economy.

How high is rpm on highway with auto and 3.55? Would it be okay for daily driver?

Seeing as it has 10 gears I'm sure it's fine on the highway.

2018 Mustang GT Manual transmission will include 3.55 standard and the 10 speed auto comes with 3.15 with the ability to upgrade to 3.55. Based on numbers I’ve seen the 3.15 have more efficient gear shifting than the 3.55, but only in the Auto. With manual the 3.55 is more efficient. I wonder why the transmission makes the difference.

What I don't get is why isn't 10th .5 instead of .63? Why not let it get better mileage at 80mph? The move from .68 to .63 is stupid basically insignificant.
