Not surprised at all but was really hoping for HUD and digital speedometer
I would absolutely hate a digital speedo in a Mustang.

Who wants to race an auto trans car anyway?

Also, that grille may be the same one on the Ecoboost Pony Package. We'll have to see but the description sounds similar.
I just want the 6 piston brakes, I could care less about the rest of the PP parts. I will they would just offer the brakes as an option.

I have a feeling they will when the 10 speed is introduced.
I was hoping to see the 10-speed auto for 2016, but it looks like another year wait. The 6-spd auto has now been around 10 years. It will be interesting to see if the new Camaro will get the 8-spd auto the Corvette has. As a retired Ford Engineer that worked on the 6R program, I'm disappointed that Ford has taken so long to introduce a new auto.

I am sure they would cost more than the PP package including installation.
I don't pay for installs and I don't want the brakes. Just an fyi. :thumbsup:

Wait I thought the black out package gave it a black spoiler...and I don't see any black trim (or whatever they are talking about).

Also it looks like the spoiler delete is available with the black out package.

It's official, the new Camaro is going to outsell the Mustang in 2016. I don't really think Ford is trying anymore, the only highlight for next year's model is a freaking hood light indicator? Smh.

ooooookkkkkkkkkk.

You realize mid cycle model refreshes don't happen till 3rd/4th year right?

Camaro isn't even out yet and won't be out till late Oct/Nov.

Meaning '17 is Ford Mustang is the counter to the '16 Camaro (10 speed tranny which I wouldn't want anyway...especially 1st year of it. More gears = more problems).
