If you really need practicality, get a Chevy SS before they are gone: [ame]

Additionally, GM is considering canceling the Impala and others: http://www.reuters.com/article/us-gm-jobs-idUSKBN1A52PJ

True, but that it needs snow tires to have equivalent/superior performance is a bit of a ding. New all-seasons are the sweet spot on my current ride. It moves around, but very predictably! :)

This x1000. It's all about the sweet spot. The Camaro asks you to make more noticeable compromises (as listed) than the Mustang does. The Mustang asks you to make a slight compromise in performance, but very few can probably tell the difference, and even fewer will ever drive it in a manner...

No stripes in the build and price or this guide. Wonder why that is?

Mustang prices adjusted for inflation through the years ... http://www.cjponyparts.com/resources/mustang-prices-through-the-years With the exception of the 69 Boss 429 ($31K), it looks like the Mustang was a ~$20K car give or take through the sixties before dropping into the mid-upper teens...

So $29,500 in 2004 is the equivalent of $38,644.84 today. http://www.saving.org/inflation/inflation.php?amount=1000&year=2004 That makes today's cars look like a steal! For the same money today you get +70 horsepower, I imagine some much improved handling, and some more tech goodies. Safety...

Haha, it's not that I don't want all of the performance/luxury goodies. I just don't want to pay (rather, can't afford to pay)for them. So I take out my frustration by mixing things up and being rational on the internet every once in a while :lol: In fairness to Ford, if you want an...

I guess Ford had me in mind when they did this package arrangement. Using x-plan, my 2018 build came out to $37,353. That's 301A, enhanced security package, active exhaust. For comparison, my 2017 build came out to $37,058. Since Sync 3 is a must have for me, that's a premium with enhanced...

The build page "hasn't been released yet" according to Ford chat. I was curious where the over-the-top stripe went, and then a chat request popped up, so I took advantage to ask where the stripes were or if they got axed. They said they were still options, so I asked again if I should be seeing...

A GT350 look would have been perfect, but I suppose some people paid a hefty ADM and would like a little exclusivity. The GT350 on sale near me has a big "SALE" tag hanging from the rearview mirror ... with the MSRP PLUS a 5 or 10K ADM. Read the fine print I guess!

After seeing it in person at Carlisle, I think it definitely looks better in person, but overall, I don't think the refreshed looks are a reason to buy or not buy the car. I'd rather not go down the modding road, so the released improvements are appealing to me. My first reaction to the car in...

I don't mind that Sync3 is an option. I mind that currently it's part of a $4K premium trim level that includes what I consider to be non-functionality adding luxury items (i.e. leather seats) that I don't want to pay for. As a younger buyer considering the car for long term ownership, I want...

As a northeasterner, I guess my only disappointment is that it won't be available until the fall. Between my job and the weather, it will be almost 16-18 months before I could truly enjoy it. I was hoping I could get one NLT July.

These pictures are getting me on board.

Haha, I'm with you. In the absence of substantive info I start getting other ideas ... like can I afford a Shelby now that they're at sticker? can I daily drive a Corvette? ... The curse of loving cars that are mathematically possible to own but potentially financially ruinous!

It's amazing what new competition does. Driverless cars may be the way of the future, but obviously Ford et. al. have a lot of investment in driver-needed and performance cars. If they want to preserve that market, better make sure no one gets bored so they'll have to pry our fingers off the...

Any chance Sync 3 becomes standard in 2018? That's the only part of the premium package I'd want.

There are 51 brand new ones left according to Cars.com...

Sort of. I looked pretty seriously in June, early July. Mustang GT won my heart when I turned it on. I liked it so much I decided I didn't like the thought of leaving it outside and that I should probably consider going from an apartment to a house with a garage (rather, I came to my financial...
