This is my first mustang. I loved the look of the 2015 when it came out and have wanted one ever since. At that time I was in the middle of my 350Z daily driver / scca build. So I finished the 350Z and enjoyed it tremendously! I drive about 25 miles each way to work and for the most part it is through some small mountain roads and very fun. Fast forward things 2 years things change ... So I sold the 350Z and was on the hunt for a new mustang. Since I knew I would be doing some scca stuff I opted for the Performance Package. I always wanted Recaro's for the 350Z so I started my search for a magnetic GT with performance package and factory recaro seats. It was kinda crazy just how hard it was to find this combination. To be honest there was only 4 cars within 300 miles with GT package, performance package and recaro seats. Lucky there was 1 magnetic one with all the stuff I wanted and it was only about 150 miles away. This is my basic starting list

1. Tinted windows
2. Black wrapped roof
3. Aggressive springs
4. Better shocks
5. Adjustable away bars
5. Performance exhaust
6. Aggressive tire and wheel package
7. Short shifter
8. Weighted shift knob
9. GT350 steering wheel
10. GT350 start button
11. Steel braided clutch line
12. Carbon fiber drive shaft
13. Ford racing stage 2 or stage 3 intake performance package

#1 down .... a lot more to go. I went with 20% on all the windows except the front. I wanted a clean look that I could still see out of. With the black interior and small windows on this car I feel the 20% gave me just the look and functionality I was looking for.

After a lot of time looking at pictures and reading on forums I ordered my wheels and tires. I went with MRR flow forged FS01 20x10 front with 35 offset and 20x11 rear with 50 offset. I felt MRR has hands down the best looking wheel and amazing customer support. I love the fact the FS01 has a similar concave on the front and the rear. These wheels are REALLY light ... 24lbs on the front and 24.5 lbs on the rears. The offsets on these are SPOT ON .... just about as flush as you can get with room to lower the car.
