2018 GT Premium 401a
GT:

Weight reduction.
"track pack" focused for guys who plan to track their cars.
7-8 Speed auto
PP option for the auto.
HP bump(DI..etc)


EB:

2.7 EB!! make the 2.3 the base, the 2.7 the mid line.


For those on the fence, what is your wish list? What changes seal the deal for you? Me, if the GT gets the PP and any hp bump, or the weight savings i'm all in. If the EB gets the 2.7 that would likely be my choice.

PP With 19Ă—9.5 275 up front, 19x10 305 in the rear

Oh and more aggressive exhaust for the pp. Deeper, throatier, and not as raspy. Like the MagnaFlow competition cat back or how a usual Borla s type sounds.
Or a boss quad exhaust. Ahhh mustangs are awesome haha

They are not going to offer a track package with automatic transmission.
Horsepower and the engine displacement bumps are not likely to happen after the first year.




The plausible changes might be...
-Premium options on V6 model
-power folding mirrors
-Wheel changes on PP because nobody likes those
-Heated steering wheel (doubtful though)

Ya, GT PP wheels look a lot nicer than EB PP wheels.

Some just don't like all black rims especially without a polished lip or something to offset the black. Our F Sport GS has dark graphite rims and we refer to the color as "brake dust grey" lol

To have an option other than a black would be nice.

I see what you did there lol
Too subtle?


Btw I think the black PP wheels on the EB look much better than the PP wheels on the GT. It has to be the 5 spoke vs multi spoke look. Like the former and dislike the latter on pretty much any rim design.

Keep the V6 for at least a couple more years, give it some more options, at least send it out with some dignity rather than have it go quietly into the night. :(

I would at least like there to be a V6 by the time I graduate college.

If you want the V6 to have more options (premium trim, performance pack), make sure you write Ford directly, and also you can send a private message to Rachael here on FordService and she will document your feedback and send it up the chain.

What Ford doesn't get is that those that buy the V6 and upgrade it after market is costing Ford $$$ because they could be getting that money (19" rims, sport seats, upgrades, etc). It doesn't hurt them AT ALL to offer the V6 in premium. Someone is not going to buy the EB if they don't want a turbo, no matter how much they market it. Ford would be wise to let the buyer pick.

You can also upvote this social request for more V6 options.
