Wonder how hard it'll be to fit the quad exhaust on the 15-17

Netherlands have insane tax on cars with high CO² pollution, the GT is already above 100k€, it's just insane what the politics are doing. But take a look at the sales in germany, it's absolutely insane how much Mustangs Ford sells:I just wonder if they can even afford to raise the price.
Number of S550 Mustangs I have seen, even with mostly travelling in the Netherlands is about 1 per month.
Number of Camaro's.... ZERO
If they overprice the new 2018 Mustang they are in trouble, most enthusiasts already have theirs on their drive way.
The power of EU GT will be the same for Portugal? :cheers:Netherlands have insane tax on cars with high CO² pollution, the GT is already above 100k€, it's just insane what the politics are doing. But take a look at the sales in germany, it's absolutely insane how much Mustangs Ford sells:

And that already includes that the starting price already grew from 39k€ for the GT in early 2015 to 44k€ by now. I guess adding a few thousand euros extra will not affect the sales much.
Guess for other european countries they lowered the horsepower of the ecoboost, so they get less CO² (cheaper sales prices) but even more torque than before.
205 units currently registered in The Netherlands. On a population of 17 million people.Number of S550 Mustangs I have seen, even with mostly travelling in the Netherlands is about 1 per month.

Might have to get a new rear bumper i might be wrongWonder how hard it'll be to fit the quad exhaust on the 15-17
It is standard on the current model and will be standard on the facelift too, that's why they always come with big brakes, no rear spoiler, performance package wheels, etc. Only a few minor things may not be in the EU models like the strut brace because of pedestrian safety or the gauge packLooks good, but then the Performance Package will not be a standar in Europe?
Ok, I understood Options--> New Packages: PP3 & 4, the same as the PP1 & 2 in U.SIt is standard on the current model and will be standard on the facelift too, that's why they always come with big brakes, no rear spoiler, performance package wheels, etc. Only a few minor things may not be in the EU models like the strut brace because of pedestrian safety or the gauge pack
I don't understand why them doesn't put gauge pack? :doh:It is standard on the current model and will be standard on the facelift too, that's why they always come with big brakes, no rear spoiler, performance package wheels, etc. Only a few minor things may not be in the EU models like the strut brace because of pedestrian safety or the gauge pack
+1I don't understand why them doesn't put gauge pack? :doh:
In the Portugal, I will pay for Mustang GT 2xmore than in USA...and it is difficult to understand why them do it with people from Europe :eyebulge: :headbonk:+1
The gauges are standard in the Focus RS model, so why do they need to remove it in the Mustang ?? addle:
