Does anything surprise / disappoint you about the Performance Package?

X 2. The performance pack has all the right parts for me. Although it would have been nice to get alcantara interior pieces. Ie steering wheel.

I think alcantara steering wheel wont hold up well no over time? Also, wont match the rest of the layout?

Good points by all.

But for me the biggest upset is that lone caliper on the rear. Why not just include a matching brembo performance brake setup all around, and while your at it have them come in RED! Hate to say it but the 1LE looks great with all four brembos in red with black wheels, like that look. Not a deal breaker, just wished for it..and lost.

It is weird but perhaps Ford's simulations deemed it unnecessary? The Camaro has 4 pistons all round, but it is also more heavy and balanced than the Mustang (less nose heavy) if I'm not mistaken.

Now that you're mentioning it, I'm thinking of painting my brakes yellow to go with the TY car!!!

No digital speed readout in cluster and/or HUD. Useful for quick speed check on track.

Pretty useful for anyone planning forced induction. Pop out the vacuum gauge and pop in the boost gauge from the Ecoboost. Done.

Good point. Please post the video of you just popping out the vacuum gauge. Because if it’s that easy, I will be popping mine for something more useful. Hopefully the aftermarket will come thru.

The bad news, one of them is a vacuum gauge. How worthless is that.

It'd only be useful if it were connected to my wallet. Then I could watch my gas money get sucked away every time I mashed the go pedal.

The good news, two extra gauges.

I can tell you as someone with an '06 GT who's had more than his fair share of vacuum issues (granted, mostly self-inflicted) as a result of cold-air-inductions units, throttle bodies, throttle positions sensors and especially gas gaps that wear out and set off the engine light, I'm really looking forward to the vacuum gauge.
