  1. GRABBER LIME S550 MUSTANG thread

    I think various countries are doing different things. I ordered my 2020 GT the other day (Australia) and it looks similar to what some other people have posted, if you option the black accent pack. We still just have the base spec GT which for Oz is similar to a US PP1 minus centre-gauges and...
  2. Bonus pack with 2020 Mustang order

    I was at the dealer today ordering my 2020 GT and they showed me an internal buletin that had more info than that link - it said there would be a plaque as well which basically had all the info of the US window sticker but on a nice plaque. Also "down the track" there would be things like...
  3. Bonus pack with 2020 Mustang order

    That sounds exactly like what he said mate, as he also mentioned the Ford GT model which I forgot to add to the OP.
  4. Bonus pack with 2020 Mustang order

    Hi all, I've owned a 2018 and 2019 GT to this point and am looking at a 20. I was speaking with a dealer (in Australia) about it and he was referencing a "bonus pack" that he claims gives you; A Ford Performance jacket, a plaque with your car's details, discounts to the Supercars events in Oz...
  5. GRABBER LIME S550 MUSTANG thread

    Yeah it does. I'm a big fan of green cars, but i was disappointed with NFG when i saw it in person. I was expecting the same with GL but was pleasantly surprised when i saw it. Big fan. It reminds me of a colour called "Toxic" i had on my Falcon XR6 back in 2005, but a little less bright.
  6. GRABBER LIME S550 MUSTANG thread

    Managed to snap a few shots at a local Ford dealer here in Dandenong/Vic/Australia. First shot is of an ecoboost in the showroom (through a window as they were closed) showing what it looks like in shade. Other shots are of a GT sitting up on a shipping container, glimmering in the sun. Yes...
  7. What did you do to your Aussie S550 today..

    Nothing visually spectacular, but i removed the old suitcase and had a Steeda H-pipe put on, and also a genuine GT350 alcantera silver sight-line & stitched steering wheel, which is weird to get used to the feeling of, but very nice with its slight flat-bottom effect and wider grip (at the...
  8. Ford buy back attempt 2018 Mustang GT “typewriter tick/rattle.”

    From owning an 18 and 19 that both had the 2k rattle to different extents, I can confirm that it sounds nothing like a belt issue.
  9. Ford buy back attempt 2018 Mustang GT “typewriter tick/rattle.”

    My 18 ticked hardcore, my feb built 19 ticks on and off, just not as bad (yet). Also has the rattle worse than the 18 did, a crap trans and noises in the column/rack. Goes alright though lol
  10. Shunting 5th gear - 10R80

    lol delivery is a joke - particularly when the car was already on order from the dealer anyway. It was delivered with a sliced open rubber seal between the bonnet and front bar, and a scratch i only found later on and cannot prove. The car's great, but i don't think anyone buys a Mustang for...
  11. Shunting 5th gear - 10R80

    I did a battery d/c last night, good thing i did as the positive terminal cover was crushed on an awkward angle, and the retaining nut was about 80% undone. The positive clamp was sitting on the terminal on an angle, and just fell straight off in my hands. What a ******* joke! I held the brake...
  12. Shunting 5th gear - 10R80

    In Sport mode using manual shifting it's certainly not smooth in my car, it's a quick shift as you'd expect, but harsher than what my '18 was. However the other day i took off from the lights in S mode, auto-shifting, and it shifted into second so hard at higher revs that it made my wife lock...
  13. Shunting 5th gear - 10R80

    Yeh it's that skipping between 3rd to 5th that really accentuates mine too. 1300KM on it now, and it's as bad as ever. I think I know what you mean with the dipping revs too, mine does that a bit occasionally at the same shift point.
  14. What did you do to your Aussie S550 today..

    Yeah I know it is, my comment was tongue in cheek. I don't see why there would need to be that point of difference in a Mustang though, over dozens of other mid to large size cars that have struts. The GT500 has a central strut also, albeit quite a different setup.
  15. What did you do to your Aussie S550 today..

    Yeh it's pretty embarrassing, probably to deter you from opening the 800KG bonnet to listen to the tick.
  16. What did you do to your Aussie S550 today..

    I'm a bit late to the party with this thread - there are a few things in this picture that've been changed from stock obviously but i added the bonnet struts today.
  17. 2018 GT A10 Basket case of issues...

    Yeah i'm not too concerned, been down the "going crazy under warranty" path before and all i did was lose hair. It'll be rectified eventually, it's just a shame because it takes a bit of the polish off what is (ironically) a much better sorted car than my 18 was. Just starting to rain here, so...
  18. VELOCITY BLUE S550 MUSTANG Thread

    Certainly can't get away with it in Australia anyway.
  19. 2018 GT A10 Basket case of issues...

    Andrea Bocelli is a blind male singer ;) Yeah i was going to do unplug it later on, that's the #1 cure for most weird issues in my other Fords. But it's been dodgy since 21KM on the ODO and it feels more like a mechanical/alignment issue than software driven. For instance, it's smoother when...
  20. 2018 GT A10 Basket case of issues...

    I have a March-build 2019 GT with a dog upshift from 3rd to 5th most of the time in D, still jerky when driving at low throttle inputs but less so, when it goes from 3rd to 4th to 5th. 7th/8th, sometimes 9th are slightly rougher than they should be. The downshift into 5th, 4th and sometimes 3rd...
