Awesome. Hopefully the parts are inexpensive and I can throw the splitter, spoiler, and sway bars on my car.

This is actually going to make my choice of a GT350 or 2018 GT even harder.

Much better. I wonder what the "Tremor" package is all about then?

Regarding this package, I hope the Cup 2's are optional as I like everything other than having Cup 2's. They impact daily driveability a bit too much with the tramlining and stone chipping.

Loving that front splitter, need to get that for my MY18, the rear spoiler is not bad either, but I shall stick with the 350 track spoiler. :)

Optioned magneride, so now its a case of do I get PP2 springs or Ford 350 lowering springs for the mag ride. Though my guess is PP2 springs are 350 springs. I am also guessing that the swaybars are also the 350 swaybars.

In short PP2 has all 350 chassis/suspension the only difference being the engine and wheel design.
Does 2018 have the aluminum knuckle and upgraded wheel bearing of the GT350? Or the counterwound rear spring?

2018 is finally starting to grow on me with this package. Like the splitter. Rear spoiler definitely and improvement over the PP1 rear wing. Like that they do it black instead of body color.

I wonder how much the new PP2 wheels weigh? The Regular PP wheels are still pretty heavy. With much less surface area these will be a lot easier to clean the break dust.

Is it me or does 305 sound small for an 11in wheel? I had 335's on my old 10.5's

So when it says -
"Customers who opt for Performance Pack Level 2 have a unique opportunity to select Recaro® seats in either leather or cloth to help stay firmly planted while cornering."

Does that mean Recaro's are an option, or you get to select leather or cloth? It sounds more like that's an extra option.

Just wondering if anyone has experience with the MSC2's.

How many miles can one expect out of this tire?
Are they safe in the rain?
How's the road noise and total comfort of this tire?

Thanks for any help.
~8-12000 at this thickness with some light autocrossing and whatnot.
No, I wouldn't want to drive em in the rain. I got caught out once in them on the highway and had to go 60 and stay in the middle lane to avoid the water pools on the side of the roads.
They aren't noisy themselves, but the rocks and pebbles they'll kick up are a bit noisy.

Also note how the upper grill design is more an MY15 design with the fins re-added, much better! :)

So basically it seems the PP2 package is nearly everything you get with a 350 sans the engine and a few other bits. The rim size is exactly what is on my GT350. With springs, spoilers, and mag ride, I will say now that the 18 PP2 will keep up with if not surpass the CURRENT 1LE. It will be interesting for sure.

For those who wanted the performance, there you have it.

While I can't say how it will stack up against the 1LE, it should definitely close the gap. Glad to see legit tires in the package too.

Well in theory this PP2 MY18 should equal or slightly out perform a base GT 350, due to wearing stickier cup 2 tyre, whereas base 350 was on MPSS.

So if a base 350 was competing with Camaro then an MY18 PP2 should also be. :)
