There are plenty of payment calculators online, but the bottom line is you are going to have to pay for the car (and then some) one way or another. In most cases you also have to factor in sales tax, which on an expensive car adds up to a lot of money. You also need to factor in the cost of...

This. And now that the Mustang has evolved further to include IRS, the line between labels has become even more blurred. What makes Mustang not a sports car at this point?

I'm heavily leaning toward buying the 2015 Mustang GT when it comes out. At first I didn't like it (looks wise) but it's growing on me, and the hype about its improvements is hard to ignore. Depending on the specs of the '15, I might consider a 2014 GT or used 12/13 Boss if they can be had for...

I wish they had an old-school green, but the competition Orange does look good. Black always looks great on the showroom floor or at dusk, but it's very hard to keep looking nice in bright sunlight.

Perhaps with the same gearing, but with a higher RPM band you can use more aggressive gearing, sacrificing speed for more torque to the wheels. Also, even if the same gearing the higher rev engine can remain in the lower (higher torque) gears longer. I just don't think you can say with two...

Plus you can typically get great deals when a new model is about to come out. I image the cost savings between the '15's when they first hit the showrooms and the outgoing '14's is pretty significant. There's already talk about dealer markup. I hope they can be had without it, but hell...

Salt isn't good for any car. Sure, the materials on older cars were more susceptible but let's not pretend new cars are impervious. "Never driven in snow" is a big selling point for the used car market, as is cars being in dry climates. Like I said, your money and your property but personally...

Your money and your property, but it pains me to see nice cars on salted roads. :(

I love that the I4 is being offered but I will still be buying the V8. With forced air squeezing more than 305 hp out of a 2.3, I just don't think there's a lot of room for more without hurting the lifespan of the engine. That said we don't know what the final specs and price will be. If...

If you're on a budget it's hard to say no to that. 24K for a 420 hp Mustang? Damn. A fricking Civic Si will cost you more.

Less torque but equal or higher horsepower means a higher RPM band, which means more available torque to the wheels. There are tons of diesel truck engines with gobs of torque that are unfit for racing.

I can't wait!

I'm really surprised how well the '14 is doing. I thought there would be a lot of holdouts for the '15.

I could be wrong but it looks to me like the wheels won't fit under stock wheelwells.

Thanks, TJ. Do you guys list prices or do you let the dealers charge whatever they can? Obviously you're not going to publish their cost, but I'd like to have at least some kind of baseline (such as MSRP).

I guess that depends on how you define a 'driver's car'. One could argue a driver's car is a high performance vehicle that is void of common comforts and amenities. If they're choosing the winner based solely on subjective anecdotes, why even compare lap times, quarter mile times and stopping...

Being faster 'on paper' as opposed to what, being faster in reality?

Quick question that I'm sure most of you could answer... Does Steeda make "Steeda Mustangs" like Roush and Saleen, or are they solely an aftermarket parts manufacturer?

Very well said.

It's not really a valid point. You can't Extrapolate the theoretical horspower at 8000 rpms. His figure would assume torque to be numerically equal all the way out at 8000 RPM. At peak HP torque is on the decline.
