ERUPTION GREEN S550 MUSTANG Thread

[Some Random Guy]

For anyone that hasn't seen one in person, the pictures don't capture how much gold/yellow comes out in the sun. That's the #1 comment I get from people that have seen photos, then see it in person.

I was really worried when I messed up my order and didn’t get the stripe delete on the ecoboost hpp. They are much more subtle in person.

No regrets on color or packages now!

When I ordered my 2020 HPP factory stripe delete was not available, so I insisted the dealer remove the hood stripe before delivery.

They happily complied. I tell myself it was me demanding the stripe removal that convinced Ford to offer the stripe delete in 2021.

Stripe or not, always great to see another HPP with handling package.

This thing's an animal. I'm coming from a BRZ and was worried I was giving up handling. That fear was unfounded. Still need to learn how to get the tail out on street driving. Right now it hooks so fast all I get is some "wag" when powering out of a corner.

These cars are meant for grip. Make sure you play in a really safe area, as they can be unforgiving with the wheel/tire/suspension setup when sideways.

Looking good in the sun. Needs a bath!

They are 19”. 255s on the front and 275s on the rear. They are on Ford’s website, I believe they are the forged luster.

If I had gone GT PP1 on my order, those were the wheels I was going to get. I think they really pop on a dark blue Kona or other dark Mustang like your EG.

Awesome car. I hate to say that this makes me happy I got a HP car though. To each his own!

Why?

Another day, another comment. This time from the operator of a ‘68 GT.
Every time I drive the EG Mustang it gets a comment. The last time I drove it I had someone in the opposite direction tell me to roll down my window so they could say how beautiful it was. I haven’t washed it in over a week! Sometimes I don’t even have to drive it. My dinner delivery driver on Friday said she loved it and she comes from a Ford family!

I think the handling pack has a lot more presence.

I literally cannot go anywhere without breaking necks or getting comments. Two people have almost caused accidents because they were starting at my car instead of paying attention to driving.

Every time I get gas, I get comments or questions about the car. The Costco tire guys were absolutely floored when they got to work on it.

Nobody asked me about it this time, but if they don't they always stare at it
