2015 Mustang GT Premium - Performance Package?

[JohnK]

I am planning to order a 2015 Mustang GT Premium, but I am not sure if I want to spend the $2450 for the performance package. I am not planning to race the car. I am a retired senior and just want a fun muscle car to drive on sunny days, so I am leaning to not ordering the performance package, but interested in other's thoughts.

Without it, at least you can get nice rims! :bolt:

There are many other threads on here that discuss having or not having the performance package BUT. I personally chose the performance package because I like spirited driving along with better handling, wider and larger tires... well 19x9 front & 19x9.5 in the rear. I did that because I am used to driving an Audi TT which has a fairly stiff suspension. To get all with the performance package is a bargain versus getting the individual parts and having someone install it can be over twice the cost. Having it can also help retain its value. I am definitely not racing this car rather it will be a good weather car for me and at least an up to date one...if you like to drive manuals this would be it but if you are planning on getting an automatic... the performance package is not an option

Couldn't help it...

But I'm glad everybody has different tastes... otherwise there would be a ton of cars exactly like mine driving around!

Lol.... there are plenty of aftermarket wheels out there already... speaking of that... did you check out tirerack? The mustang is up and live there now with wheels BUT selecting the pp... they have the front rims all wrong at 19x8.5 (error)& rears at 19x9.5(correct) not the greatest selections on there yet though

I passed on the PP. I HATED the black rims on the black car, will never race/track it, and the wife will drive it at times.

I did, however spring for the 20x9" rims and Pirelli P-Zero's

I saw the PP in black in my local dealership and don't like the gloss black wheels either.

I have a vista blue 2009 with charcoal matte wheels and I like them on the case.

Something with the gloss black, they are just too shiny or the black is a slightly different shade. Something is off with them on the black car.
