Hopefully the x pipe will be on before christmas but someone else on the forum is saying they may not be available until early January. If I am not working on install day I will sure drop around.Hi Peter yeah it didn't long,probably carbon fibre stripes and the carbon fibre 350 spoiler,
Let me know when you have your x-pipe done. keen to have a listen to it.
Hey TroyPicked up my new My19 Ruby today.
A road trip is a great way to bond with a new car. Those wheels look great and would be a breeze to clean compared to the usual GT multi spoke wheels. Amazing economy too.Finally the long wait is over, took delivery last week and just spent 4 days driving it from Geelong to Whitsundays.
If you look at the average fuel consumption it’s pretty impressive. Considering I did the same trip 3 years ago in a new Ranger Wildtrak that only got 9lt/100km.
A brutal run in for the car as temperatures got up to 43 degrees C in central Qld.
The engine temp never exceeded 93.
Had plenty of time to play around with all the settings and found the S+ on the Magnaride to be the most comfortable on the highway. Normal just seemed a bit spongey.
How sweet does it sound in S+, slowing down coming into a town with it rev matching downshifts popping and banging letting all know a Mustang is coming through!
One happy camper here.
Great choice to go with the forged wheels Glenno. I love 'em. Your combo of Magnetic with the rims and spoiler looks awesome. Just out of interest, what was the reason for buying it from Geelong when you live in the Whitsundays? Maybe it was just so you could have that big drive heyFinally the long wait is over, took delivery last week and just spent 4 days driving it from Geelong to Whitsundays.

Just took delivery of My19, no blind spot unfortunately, I have Recaros and the car needs it.I got my window sticker yesterday. It has a blend date of 20 dec. woohoo. Hoping for a March delivery into my hot little hands.
Has anyone got any idea on how to work out which ship will transport my pony?
anyway...I noticed that it has Mirrors-man-fold power w/integrated blind spot.....now I'm pretty happy about this but when I asked my dealer around September when I ordered it, if it came with blind spot he said no.
Even the new brouchures dont have any mention of the blind spot.
Has anyone got an M19 who can confirm this.
thanks Five...there is a comment about standard equipment may not apply to non US markets...oh well was hoping anywayJust took delivery of My19, no blind spot unfortunately, I have Recaros and the car needs it.
I had an 18 and Ford replaced it. There are a few changes like rev match, b&o play (not a big difference), gear number on dash in the manual, loses heated steering wheel for some reason but the best change for me is that when in cruise control and you clutch/change gear it no longer disengages, it retains the cruise speed.
The window sticker is not accurate being an export, the car is essentially a 400a pack but with export pack changes hence there’s some omissions.
Ford should have sent you ship tracker, email them or try asking Ford Australia on face book. They do reply.
