Got my 17 GT w/PP yesterday. Such an amazing experience driving her home!!
I'll talk more about it, but if you're not interested in the buy/drive home, please take a look at the bottom at my questions. Any help would be appreciated!
My wife, son and I drove down to Koons Sterling...
I've only ever driven beaters/sedans/etc. Nothing fast or nice looking. I'm waiting to see what it's like out on the road on the 4 hour drive home after picking up my 17 GT w/PP Saturday.
Maybe it's a cop magnet? Maybe you constantly get challenged by kids or other muscle/sports car...
I'm not sure if I'll swap out the factory knob that comes with my 17 GT for something else. I see most people will go with a black or white knob which is classic. But there's endless designs/options when it comes to knobs including a rethreaded GT350 knob which I think does look sharp. Not...
I knew from buying my home that amertization SUCKS! Jacks up the rate you are actually paying compared to what they tell you you're paying. Because of that, I specifically asked my lender if this loan would be like buying a product at a set/flat price or if there would be amertization applied...
My current car has a tape deck and radio (02 Forester). So please pardon my ignorance but I need some info as to what my car will have from the factory music/entertainment-wise (GT base w/PP).
I know the Stang has a cd player and radio. But what about playing from an MP3 Player? I have a...
My little guy is going to be 6 next month. He's almost 4' tall and and around 50lbs. While he's tall enough for a booster, he prefers the full seat in my Forester because we have a dog cage divider in the back and his head nails the bar between the seat back and head rest.
When it comes...
About a year ago someone shared a link to an aftermarket performance pack wheel with a tire mounted and balanced on it. It was around $239 shipped I believe.
I've checked American Muscle, CJ's, Tire Rack, etc....coming up empty.
All I can find is tires OR rims OR sets of 4 tire/rims...
As part of my deal, the dealer has agreed to include a full size spare. I'm sure it won't be a performance pack rim/pzero. But what are the dimensions of the tire/rim that will fit over any of the calipers and inside the wheel well on a GT w/PP?
Thanks

I just got off the phone with Koons. For a 2017 GT w/ PP in Magnetic they are giving me an OTD price (before 2.49% financing through my bank) of $32.3k. Haven't countered with anything but maybe with $32k and just ask to take the $300 off?? Has anyone negotiated to get a lower price with...
Since I started wanting an S550 I always thought that the Magnetic was the sharpest color. Gunmetal gray! I'm an avid gun collector so maybe that's why it called to me.
However, recently the Lightning Blue has caught my eye. I do think it looks sharp and somewhat better when contrasted...
Last year around this time I was looking at a Blackvue DR650GW- 2 channel system for the 2016 GT w/PP I was planning to purchase which never happened. Now that I'm working out the final details with the dealer for a 2017 GT w/PP, I'm doing research again.
Has much changed in a year...
A few years back on another forum, someone showed their CG Lock in use. Basically it allows you to really plant your hips using ony a standard lap belt but at the same time it doesn't restrict your shoulders from moving around.
I also remember people saying they could duplicate the same...
One thing I'll miss about driving my Subaru in the nicer months is the horn. When someone's distracted on their phone or just day dreaming at a stop sign it never fails to make people jump and shit or get off the pot!
Ford's horns just don't have the same effect. Not as tame as a bike bell...
I'm currently talking with two different dealers in two different states on a 17 GT w/PP. Here's the issue...
Dealer A... Is offering a $1000 lower price and offers lifetime warranty on the powertrain. The car in question is black and I want Magnetic.
Dealer B... Is offering to beat...
To say the last 5-6 of my life have been a wild ride would be putting it mildly. Close family members dying, financial strain (while still managing to maintain perfect credit!), job loss/changes, buying/fixing/maintaining a home, etc....However, over the past year, things have drastically...
I'm currently negotiating with different dealers on an out the door price. One has said that Ford just does not offer larger cash incentives AND 0% financing together and that it's either or intentionally by Ford. Is this true?
I could have sworn that toward the end of the year and model...
When looking at superchargers... how do the 670hp Roush/Ford Performance stack up against other brands/models?
I believe the Roush are accepted by Ford to retain the factory warranty...but does that include if they are installed by the owner or do they need to be factory/dealer installed to...
I'm curious what expenses I need to plan for down the road when I pull the trigger on a 17 GT with PP?
Biggest concern would be tires. From the posts I've seen people say the P-Zero's last 6mos-under 2 years. I know when it comes to tires there are endless choices but what'd be the...
Many seem psyched about the upcoming 2018 refresh which is great. Now, it could just be the spirit of the season, but in other threads, I haven't seen much support in favor of the pre-18 S550's.
I'm actually planning on buying a 2017 in the coming months (waiting to see what incentives...
