  1. I backed out of my order, wanted some advice on how I should handle this

    Excellent and good luck with it. Dealers think they hold all the cards, without customers they don't have a business. I inquired a special order vehicle and was advised on a forum that I "had no leverage as it's special order". You're kidding right, I can just not buy at all, that's all the...

  3. I backed out of my order, wanted some advice on how I should handle this

    Sounds like a bunch of nonsense. I'd send something similar to what you said, without any snark. Stay professional. "Because the deal was not completed, please refund my refundable deposit within 7 days". And if you have any more issues, I'd spend a couple hundred and have an attorney...
  4. Just sold my beloved 2011 GT BBP...pondering an S550! Questions...

    Love both cars, agree with madweazl. The S550 isn't as impressive straight line, I expected more with the extra 15 HP, but it's certainly not a slouch. Love the way the S550 looks, it's a beautiful car. Mine is silver as well.
  5. I wonder if these people know what they're bidding on...

    Good job! There's always opportunity for these kind of deals, and the 4runner deal mentioned. It just matters market timing, having the cash to pull the trigger, and not being scared of doing it. People paying ADM I highly doubt have the money to seize this kind of opportunity. They're...
  6. Just sold my beloved 2011 GT BBP...pondering an S550! Questions...

    I miss my S197 - '13 5.0. It feels more raw and visceral from my S550. And it felt faster. The interior of the S550 is light years better. The best way I can describe it - the S197 is like a go cart - fun, fast, easy to sling around. The S550 is like a Porsche Boxter - looks fast...
  7. upgrade just speakers

    I'm a radio idiot, but I want clear sound. I have the 9 speaker Shaker, and it's the WORST car stereo I've had in a car since a 1984 Chevy truck with only the center speaker in the dash. So that's not saying much. Do I need to replace the front door speakers and the tweeters? I'm hoping to...
  8. April 2015 Mustang Sales (and vs. Camaro & Challenger)

    I don't know about this, but if one looks at the GM full size pickups for example, they really started out poorly, given that there wasn't enough change between the '13 and the '14 styles. And then Ford announces the Aluminum F150, GM dismisses it, and then quietly starts a refresh and use of...
  9. 2017 Ford Mustang will outperform Chevy Camaro in every way

    The ONLY thing I'm interested in is if they've fixed the viewing angles and interior. The GM V8s are well proven, and the LT1 will be an excellent fit for this car. But I am not hopeful based on the spy shots - the interior should be good, but the horrible driving views don't seem addressed...
  10. 2015 Owners-Biggest Surprises/Disappointments so far

    Once you have all the nannies and assists its' difficult to live without them. Just imagine the griping if they removed heated/cooled seats in the name of "lowering the vehicle weight". They didn't add these simply to keep the price and content at a certain point. Some of the sensors are...
  11. Not even 48 hours of owning the car...

    Depends, CarFax gets reports from both Insurance databases and they purchase it from body shops. I'd hazard that the bigger the shop (national chain, etc), more likely to report to CarFax. When I traded my last Mustang, it had just over $1100 worth of body work due to a hit while parked...
  12. Mustang stripes ignot silver

    That car looks fantastic!
  13. Not even 48 hours of owning the car...

    Sorry to hear it bud, Florida needs to get rid of no-fault insurance. Let the horrible drivers pay through the roof for car insurance. Also, change the law that if insurance can't be verified from a traffic stop, the car is towed away and impounded until proof of current insurance is...
  14. What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

    How do you like the Steeda CAI? It looks great, does it require a tune? I have a K&N on my LS3 and it really wakes up the sound.
  15. 2015 Owners-Biggest Surprises/Disappointments so far

    I don't like starbucks but I do like a scarf (LOL). My 2000 Mustang with the Mach 460 stereo was much better than this Shaker in 2015. It's not all about the bass.
  16. 2015 Owners-Biggest Surprises/Disappointments so far

    This is the worst sounding stereo I've had in a car since a 1980s pickup. The tonal quality is horrible, muddled, weak mids, lack of treble. Reminds me of the Kraco speakers sold at Kmart. The bass response is sufficient. I will say it sounds better using Bluetooth audio vs. Sirius, so...
  17. Door Auto-Lock and Auto-Unlock Feature Settings

    I agree - my other two cars that were "keyless" did the auto-lock. This feature is sorely missing from the S550. Hopefully Ford can do a software update and add it in, else what's the point of keyless?
  18. Ordering 2015 GT, PP, 401a - Looking for advice on options

    Coming from the 13 standard seats going to the 15 standard seats is like having recaros. Standard seats in the 15 are SO MUCH better. I decided against Recaros for that reason alone. But I love the idea of recaros if you need them for race purposes.
  19. Were you Ford/Mustang biased when deciding to buy?

    I was neutral. This is the third Mustang I've owned, and after I've sold the previous two, swore I was done with Mustangs. I'm just a GM fan. So I decided to get either a C7 Stingray or go foreign, and drove a couple 350 lexus coupes and MB coupes. They don't offer manual transmissions...
  20. Took delivery of 2015 GT PP

    Just went for a 100 mile ride in the S550. The SS would outcorner, outstop, and out accelerate the S550, but it would be close. The SS has more interior noise, I'm surprised how quiet the S550 is when cruising on the highway. It sounds mean at idle, but can barely hear the exhaust at...
