  1. 2015 Owners-Biggest Surprises/Disappointments so far

    Bend left leg and plop left foot on ground. Slide left to edge of seat. With right hand gripping steering wheel lift body up and backwards. You should do this facing front. Pull your right leg along. Plop right foot on ground. If you're wearing sunglasses this would be a good time to adjust them.
  2. 2015 Owners-Biggest Surprises/Disappointments so far

    I have an old Mustang... my fourth, big fan. I was thinking getting a new one. I don't trust dealers at all. My rethinking the brand comes from Ford's lack of help on a serious matter like hers. I can't imagine being ignored by a company I've been loyal to for years. It just makes me reconsider...

    Not me, a rep I supervise. The dealer said they had nothing to do with it. Ford sent her what looks like an apology letter. I don't know if she got some consumer group or a gov't office. But Ford seems to be wanting to talk to her now. SMH I hope it works out for her.

    One of my reps ordered one. Drove it 5k miles before she discovered some damage that looks like the car was in a collision. Then improperly repaired. She's not happy. The dealer and company haven't been forthcoming. Arbitration or a lawsuit is what she's looking at, not getting to drive her new...

    Just a 3.55:1 rear end and a spare tyre.
  6. 2015 Owners-Biggest Surprises/Disappointments so far

    How much should I pay for a stock GT with 6,000 miles from a private seller?
  7. Post-purchase Audio Upgrade...

    LOL I've done the whole throw out money like I just don't care thing. From now on it's more planning and less wasting. :D
  8. Performance Pack remorse?

    This forum is a trip. No matter what pointed question folks asked on separate threads, the resulting conversation is the same. LOL
  9. Post-purchase Audio Upgrade...

    Normally, each new generation is better than the last. Thanks for letting me know the new Pro audio option isn't worth the checkmark. I know the '05-'09 Shaker500 was loud enough to announce your arrival. It was probably the woofers installed in the doors. I wonder if the new base speakers can...
  10. Performance Pack remorse?

    Some good info here. It looks like I can skip the PP altogether. Especially if the suspension bits aren't up to snuff. A good tower brace/adjustable shocks/sway bars combo should do the trick. :D
  11. Performance Pack remorse?

    Flame on? Yeah! I have a choice between Steeda and Ford Racing.
  12. Performance Pack remorse?

    One can order gears by themselves. And the base brakes are fine for the street. I've driven three GTs so far and they handle the guess-timated 360 at the rear wheels. I have to keep an eye on the Ford Racing for some suspension-only kit.
  13. Performance Pack remorse?

    Can one tune a GT's suspension better than Ford's Performance Pack for way less money? If so, shows us your parts wish list!
  14. Post-purchase Audio Upgrade...

    Say one purchases a base model of any engine size and gets the basic audio system. Is it possible to upgrade that with the Shaker Pro Audio system from the Mustang premium trims? Does Ford Motor Company or Ford dealerships offer that Shaker audio upgrade after vehicle purchase?
  15. Everyone's a Critic...

    The base GT of 2005 was $27k. Alongside inflation we should factor in new technologies introduced in that 15 year span.
  16. Everyone's a Critic...

    I cringe.
  17. Everyone's a Critic...

    Would love the PP but it pushes the price beyond budget. Not just at the start but also when replacing tires. Budgets, argh!
  18. Everyone's a Critic...

    Ah, that's what I did wrong: not concise enough, too many verbal flourishes. LOL I didn't mean raw as going back to old tech. It was in line with the exhaust and some analog feel. The fifth gen had a system that was very quiet until you floored it. Then everyone knew hell was let loose... but...
  19. Everyone's a Critic...

    I am a fan of the new Mustang buuuuut: Packages are a horrible concept. In previous gens one could order a sleeper with the best radio. You can't get the pro audio without making the interior into a cigar lounge. The basic system not only looks like an old space shuttle but sounds like something...
