VIN and build date for 2015 V-6 with automatic transmission issued yesterday. My build week is posted as 10/26/2104. I placed my order on June 12th at Long Lewis Ford in Hoover, Alabama. I am a very happy Mustang lover.
In answer to the initial question, yes, I ordered the base 2015 Mustang V-6 model. I added automatic transmission and foundry wheels package. I wanted a fun, sporty, American Muscle-car as my daily driver. I am going to wait and see about reupholstering with red leather.
Don't know if this helps, but my dealer only asked for a $300 non-refundable deposit. He acknowledged that the dealer allotment cars would come in first followed by custom orders. He further explained that any first run bugs would have a better chance of being corrected in the custom order cars...
I know, I was looking forward to some more upscale options too. I have a 2007 V-8 Mustang 6 speed and love driving it to shows, but I am getting to the age when I want an automatic sporty car as a daily driver. I also want reasonable fuel economy and performance. So, I have ordered a 2015 Ruby...
2015 vs. 2016
I was thinking the same thing, but I did not want to loose a whole year of driving the S550. I am ordering a 2015 and if it is flawed, I will trade it in for the 2016 I want.
