Introduce yourself!!

[Ugly John]

Howdy! I'm a almost-49 year old engineer, and this is my first REAL car - I had a 88 Mitsubishi pickup, a 97 Ford Ranger, and an 09 Pontiac G6. These were all cars that were what I could get at the time. Seemed my now-ex wife got what the heck she wanted...

My neighbors got a Camaro, and I was getting a bit jealous. I'd never even sat in a Mustang, and this past Monday I went to check out a 2014. Since I was there, I figured I had to try the 2015, and after that one drive I was hooked. I'm having an absolute blast with this car!

Joel from New Jersey & moving to California soon. I do not own a Mustang, a Ford or an American car just yet!! At the moment I own a 14' Audi S4 getting tired of her she's loaded with a lot of mods & goodies but I want to have more fun & go faster. I'm looking into getting the Mustang RTR which I can't wait. My car at the moment is for sale if it doesn't sell this month I'm parting out & trading her in for the RTR [emoji39][emoji106]. Here's a couple photos of my S4 & my buddies M3 cheers & enjoy [emoji481]

Hello Everyone!

My name is Luke and I just picked up a base 2015 Mustang GT in Triple Yellow...thanks in no small part to all of the reading/research that I had been doing on this forum for a few months.

I traded in a 2012 Hyundai Sonata 2.0T for the Mustang. The Sonata was fully loaded, and as much as I would have loved to pick up a Premium trim Mustang I just couldn't justify the $4000 upcharge at this time. I definitely gave up a few creature comforts in the process...but who really needs a sun roof or heated seats? I'm one of those people who, especially in the winter, will always fire up the car about 7-8mins before I have to leave. The cabin gets plenty warm in that time and the heated seats become unnecessary.

The Dealer had added a stripe package that wasn't shown on their website...so I didn't see that until I arrived at the dealer. Thus far I have gotten quite a few compliments about the stripe package. Gives the car a very 'Boss 302' feel.

This is also going to be my daily driver, and I live in Southern Wisconsin. I decided against the Performance Package for this reason...as I needed the all season tires out of the gate and honestly I preferred the 3.31 rear end since I'll be driving year round.

I'm looking forward to being an active member here on the forums. I'm totally new to V8's but this seems like a fantastic community. I'm no stranger to forums as I was a Moderator during my Sonata days...the Search button is my friend :-)

So anyway just a couple quick pics...these are all I have for now.

Hi All!

I just joined. I am in Northern Illinois and enjoy tooling around the river roads west of here along the Rock and Mississippi Rivers.

Here's my Yin and Yang.

A 2015 GT PP and a 2012 base v6. The s197 v6 was the gateway drug....

The v6 is bama, cold air, springs, catbacks. The GT is stock....so far.

Perhaps oddly, I also really like the nostalgia scene. Here I am with my 59 Edsel. it's a 390 on the original 2 speed auto....

The Name is Chris and I am a former Mustang owner. First was a 1971 Boss 351 back in the early 70's. I didn't know what I had. Sold it when I got orders overseas. Had a 66 Coupe, 289 HiPo in the mid 80's that I sold off to buy a house.

Now, 40 years after having my first, I am considering buying a new one. Never owned a NEW Mustang and I am waiting a little bit to see what turns up. I may need to wait for the 2016's due to priorities at home.

But I've been BIT HARD by this new Mustang. My local dealer has one that is so close to my needs, it's a Competition Orange EcoBoost with Performance pack. Very basic but still a nice package.

My wife has wanted another for a long time, is considering the convertible, but I am a Fastback man myself. She wants BLACK and I am tired of being the detail fanatic that I am. Black cars are just too much work!

I am soon to be 59 years of age, but still love cars and it is my hobby as well as my vocation also being that I work in Auto Parts.

I was waiting for someone to do the Boss 302 look.

Those hood cowl lines are perfect for the added hood stripes too. Really makes it stand out.

Also hey everyone new member too but been lurking for a while. Hoping to place my order for a Magnetic GT in the near future. Saving all my pennies :cheers:

Got my 2015 Guard GT with Performance Package on Nov. 22. Already have 1200 miles on it...lot's of driving. It's a blast.
I owned a 2006 Mustang GT until 2013 and loved that car. Traded it in for Jeep but couldn't stand it any longer. Now I feel home again.
Got to take it down Highway 1 today near Big Sur. Handles and drives like a dream, not to mention it feels like a rocket.
These new Mustangs are such great cars!

 

[angermgmt14]

I have been lurking for a month or so and figured it was time to finally register.
My name is Dave and currently do not own a Mustang and have never owned a Ford vehicle. I have always owned GM vehicles. I currently own a supercharged 2006 Pontiac GTO. I have been looking into either the Mustang Ecoboost Premium w/PP or the new Camaro (if they offer a turbo 4 option or something similar). I am hoping GM will release some info at the NYIAS in January so I can make my decision by then. I am impressed with the performance of the Ecoboost engine, even though I have owned nothing but V8's for the last 25 yrs. I have learned alot from this forum and have been in contact with TJ at Cobb Racing to get more info about the power potential of the Ecoboost engine. So, as I wait for news from GM, also wait for someone to purchase my current car, I will continue to collect the knowledge and info from forum members and sponsors.
Thanks--Dave

Hello,

After researching and waiting for over a year I finally placed my order today for a 2015 CO Mustang GT Premium. I've been lurking on this site the whole time gathering information and it's been extremely helpful. I'm 39 and this will be my first Mustang. Can't wait to share in the fun with all the other owners!

[bill@cjpp]

I don't get on the forums much but Steve@CJPP says his is a pretty good group so I finally got around to joining. I have a deep impact blue 2015 GT with PP, NAV, and Recaros that will become a project car here at CJ Pony Parts. We have a total of 5 2015s here now plus a bunch of customer cars I have worked on so I hope I can contribute!

I would say one of my "complaints" about the new Mustang was tat there seemed to be NO striping options whatsoever.

And that boss-like stripe-package and hood stripes were a surprise? ie: you had no idea it was going to be there until you saw it?

I . . LOVE IT!! I WANT!! I WANT!!

So, uh, while the brochure, on the 2nd-to-last page, has a link (the "Play" button) to accessories, and a Mustang stripe along the lower side, and the Aeroskin protector at the front of the hood (is it really a protector, or just a stripe?) are shown, nothing else is.

Are there other options? The builder on the website, and the brochures, seem to be silent or near silent on this...

Hello everyone, long time lurker, finally joined to add my .02 cents to a post that I just couldn't keep quiet on. Calling BS on a dealership....
I was one of the guys that placed their order on 5/20. 400A, DIB, manual trans, spare tire, 3:55 gears and spoiler delete.
Nov. 5th I took delivery. Nov. 9th my son's friend drove it into the my garage door opening causing $1500 damage to the front bumper. All is good now. Repaired and back on the road after 3 days in intensive care. (Check the thread on "Car arrived with front end damage" for my post with a photo)
But this is my FIRST new car at 52 years of age. My wife has always gotten the new car in the family, I figured it was my turn after having my '95 totaled out on the way to work one August morning back last year. My son had just left for Afghanistan, so I had his '95 GT to drive for a year until mine came in. Had to borrow a friends truck for a while since he returned stateside June.
In addition to my '15, I also own a really nice '66 GT Fastback I have spent the past 15 years restoring. It's at about 98% complete, but still not "road worthy" at this time.
