  1. Need a 4 door

    Thanks to everyone for the responses. I have tried to look at the Stinger but I really don't like Kia and it's more expensive than the Charger or the STi. I actually also considered the F150 due to still being able to get a 5.0 but it won't fit in my garage and again it gets expensive fast...
  2. Need a 4 door

    I apologize if this is in the wrong section. My wife is expecting and I need to jettison my GT. I love my GT. I am a mustang guy through and through. So I was wondering if you could help. I am currently between a 18 STi limited and an 18 Charger Scat Pack. The STi would be a special order and...
  3. GT vs Camaro SS vs Focus ST

    My wife owns an RS and I have a GT. After driving both I can't imagine a GT hanging with an RS on a curvy road unless it had some major suspension mods. My mustang feels like a Buick after being in the RS. Now in a straight line I'm confident i could run her down.
  4. Dealer offered 27k for my 15

    I was just offered 22k on trade for my 15 premium GT manual. That's with an extra set of wheels and tires. 31k miles. They said the car was immaculate but because of winter it is what it is. So yeah, 27 seems pretty good to me lol.
  5. Drove my first 2018 GT

    Sticker was 46 and change. I am confident they would have dealt and she did ask me some buying questions but admittedly it wasn't what I wanted and she wasn't my regular salesman. I just wanted to see an 18 in person. She did say if I ordered one they could definitely make a deal since what they...
  6. Drove my first 2018 GT

    The stock exhaust is definitely different. I noticed it right away. Much more throaty. I had to do a double take.
  7. Full Synthetic vs Synthetic Blend (5.0)

    One thing I will say is that after oil changes with motorcraft full synthetic my car has the bbq tick for roughly 1000 miles. I used the full synthetic in my 13 GT and had no issues. I would read through the forums on this topic before making that decision. It seems the motorcraft full synthetic...
  8. Drove my first 2018 GT

    As far as feed-back I don't know that you are going to be pleased. While the weird engagement is gone it is lighter so it took me a second to figure out where it let out. But once I did I had no problems. I should say I don't really mind the clutch in my 15. The odd engagement definitely...
  9. Drove my first 2018 GT

    No. The clutch is much improved. No weird engagement in my opinion. I retained the clutch spring in my 15 and the 18 feels much better. Much easier to be smooth.
  10. Drove my first 2018 GT

    My dealership called me yesterday to let me know they got a 401A performance pack in magnetic in. I have to say it was impressive even at night and filthy. -It did not have the magneride or active exhaust which I had to double check because of how throaty it sounded. They really improved the...
  11. Clicking sound around 1800 rpm.

    Yep. The flex pipe is welded into the cat. Not much you can do. My dealer is cool so they didn't blame the catback. Also may have helped that I had the stock catback replaced prior to putting on the FRPP sport for a bad resonator.
  12. Clicking sound around 1800 rpm.

    The 1850 sounds like the BBQ tick to me. I have that. The 2250 RPM noise that ryant601 is talking about is probably the flex pipe on the passenger side cat. I had mine replaced and it went away. The X-Pipe makes the noise noticeable especially next to concrete :) The BBQ tick I have not had...
  13. Any New England winter drivers?

    Used Blizzak LM-32s the last two winters in Chicagoland. We had pretty mild winters and the mustang was excellent. I am a believer in snow mode because I typically have a heavy foot and it is pretty flat around here. I went the winter beater route with my previous Mustang and it sucked. Between...
  14. Trading in for wrx?

    I would take a look at a Focus RS. They can be had for under invoice and the car is awesome. My wife drove an Audi S3, Golf R, STi, and then the RS. She was hard pressed against Ford (poor experience with an escape) but she immediately fell in love. I get texts each day from her about how much...
  15. Who DOESN'T have the vibration? Reassure a prospective buyer.

    No vibration 20k miles. I have interior rattles. My right cat started making noises soon after my catback was installed but I have yet to address that with the dealer. I had a 13 GT that was basically the same. Few rattles and the well known control arm squeak (not an S550 issue, fixed under...
  16. Looking at a new GT

    I have a premium with the 3.55 gears. I didn't want the staggered setup on the premium or the 3.73. I live in the Chicagoland area and one thing that was a must for me was the drive modes that come with the premium package. Like BMACIL I also bought a set of blizzaks and spare wheels for the...
  17. Worth Pursuing Bumper Replacement at Dealer?

    I saw this with my bumper as well. Thought the car might come with two sets of guides (one for Europe, one for US) and the idiots drilled the lower one first. I didn't bother pursuing it because the plate hides it however I am nervous because I have a plate cover and I need to remove it every...
  18. 2016 tech pack available MSRP

    I couldn't agree more. I know of one down south from me that has been at the dealer now for 2 months at least. When I first called on a whim 2 months ago it was 5k over. Now it's 2k over. I figure the word is out on these tech pack cars and the 2017 dropping is only going to make things better...
  19. year round daily driver

    As far as the tires I can say good things. I have the LM-32s on my GT and they were good. The only rear wheel drive snow experience I have was 2 seasons of a 97 Blazer and I had zero issues in the Mustang. No weight in the back either. Just threw it and snow mode and plowed. We didn't get...
  20. Vibrating metallic noise?

    DropTop66- Thank you for suggesting a possible solution. I think I will head to your muffler shop and have them do the same thing. I appreciate it!!
