I'd trade-in my 2016 GT in a second for this, if only it could be had with the 10R80. Stop and go traffic during my commute killed my last stang's clutch, twice. Kinda sad with the decision for manual only.
It definitely will. The previous GT500 wouldn't let you use full throttle until partially into 3rd gear, otherwise, the tires would go up in smoke. And that was with upgraded rubber too. Unless they've done some sort of suspension magic and put some wider tires on there, I don't see how a car...
Stock HP level is always fun to guess at, but as a former GT500 owner, I can tell you that it's not really super relevant. In our Mustang club, which had at least a dozen other GT500's in it, exactly 0 were stock. Everyone had at least a tune, CAI, and pulley combo. For around $800, you add...
The back seats in my '16 are quite usable. I have an 11 year old and a 14 year old that sit back there regularly. While my 14 year old grumbles about getting in and out, once he's there, there's plenty of room. He did comment that the seat "feels" smaller than the '08 that we had before...
Yikes. I paid $33,600 for my '16 base GT w/ Auto... Seems like it's around $6,000 more now? I think Ford is trying to charge Camaro money, which unfortunately might make it have Camaro sales numbers.
I like the new spoiler, kind of. The orange has too much yellow in it for my tastes and the front fascia and hood vents look pretty terrible, IMO. I like the interior updates and I'm patiently awaiting the announcement of 455hp.
Didn't the '13/'14 Super Snake have 850hp? Seems like we're going a little backwards in power here... Anyway, I'll have the blue one with the white stripes, cause it's still faster than my '16 5.0
I'm happy to have picked up one of the last new 2016's on the lot last month. Since they had just gotten the 2017's in, I got a base GT (auto trans) for $32k, a $500 rebate and 0% interest. Stoked to have added to last month's sales.
