Hey guys, been wanting a 5.0 for a few years now and finally got one. Excited to see what this car ends up being.

what are some of your guys recommendations on first mods, also what’s the best wheel set up for couch fitment with a meaty tire?

Welcome to the club! Many first mods for people are an exhaust (or an h pipe if you have active exhaust), hood struts, a catch can (not necessary but still popular), window tint, and proper all weather floor mats to keep the stock ones from getting nasty.

Nice whip my guy. Take care of the interior first I'd say, nice floor mats, tint, etc...much of what's been said a few posts above. Don't know how long you'll want the stock sound but definitely look into exhaust setups and build from there.

Appreciate it man, yeah I’m looking at a few setups now. I love the active option so I’ll probably end up with something active since I live in a condo and I don’t want ppl complaining in the morning

Kaulpenney,

Well.... I ALSO am getting a new 2020 GT Premium 401A model and mine is Rapid Red. Mine will be here Thursday and I'm PUMPED! Good luck with yours.

Was it very hard to find? My dealer went through several offers and issues before he actually was able to locate one that we could successfully buy. He says they're exceedingly tough to find here in the Southeast.

Nice car, love the red. If this was my car, I think the first mod I'd do was black out the side mirrors to match the roof. I think that would really look nice and it'd probably be a fairly cheap mod too.

For basic first mods I recommend ceramic tint and a passenger side catch can.

For me honestly I just looked it up on Facebook and found two cars that were spec’d how I liked them and sent them messages. Ended up going with this one and I absolutely love it.

the 10 speed is kinda weird for sure since I’m used to manual cars and normal autos but it’s definitely fast and super smooth in normal mode

Congrats.

There are so many mods, you have to do you on that one. Personally, I always tint, exhaust, CAI and tune. Then consider the next steps. For me that is a FP oil catch can I need to install, and GT350 replica wheels which are going on this Friday (finally).

I ordered a 2021 rapid red 401a should be here 7/11

Up north no mustangs. There isn't a mustang gt within 400 miles of me.

Dude yes ppf 100%. The day I bought my car I drove it right to my detailer for ppf, paint correction, and ceramic coat. 8 months later I’m glad I did.
Yeah I work for a detailing and ppf company so it’ll be taken care of later this week
