it looks amazing. btw my f150 is lightning blue and you can see the diff. i saw an atlas blue super duty today at the dealer and meh. not as good as velocity or lightning. unfortunately atlas is the only nice blue for f150 now, so my 22 will be atlas.

Sweet! Glad you finally got yours.

Two things i recommended seeing you have a stick. A clutch pedal extender so you aren't so cramped on top of the gas pedal to fully press clutch. And a steeda clutch spring. It provides much more feed back.

what’s funny is i had the steeda in my 2014 and felt absolutely no diff lol. this clutch is so easy and crazy. it springs right back at you. and why the extender? what do you mean with that

The spring on the s550 is i think 196 pounds or so that is why it is so easy and springy. This creates less feedback. I think steeda is 60-70lbs. Clutch is a little harder to push but provides much more engagement feedback.

For many people myself included. To sit comfortably and out from under the dash would mean i couldn't press the clutch all the way in but can easily press gas and brake all the way. To be able to press the clutch all the way we have to sit closer than comfortable so they made a clutch pedal extender. It was a leg cramp saver for me.

oh interesting, i’m not tall or anything, 5’11, but i don’t feel that issue. feels identical to how my 2014 was.
only odd thing is the bolstering for me…its MUCH more bolster than my 2014 was, so that takes a bit getting used to in order to get comfy in there.

I find the wheel a bit too high, even at it’s lowest setting, but the 2014 wheel was much bigger so it was logically able to feel lower as well, so i’m getting used to that too.

when i changed the spring in my 2014, it was the biggest PITA ever, so i’m not touching that lol i’m reulctant to take some floor panels out to get to the fuse box and install my dashcam still loll

Im 5'10 but can't stand driving with a right bent leg i need it more straight to modulate the gas and brake mainly by foot and not knee otherwise my leg and hip cramps.

The spring was easy. A pair of channel locks pulled the old one out and put the new one in. But to each his own.

what a day!! glad others are starting to get theirs!! ford perf said mine was scanned at 6am today, and then low and behold i went to go text my dealer, and he texts me that pic saying she’s here!!!!! i worked until around 1245, and went in and picked her up…and my GOD. THAT SOUND!!!! this thing is a BEAST! fitment seems good, don’t see any issues. only small thing i noticed that i pointed out to my sales rep was i saw some condensation built up inside drivers side headlight, which i assume was from when they washed it…he said they have vents in the back of the lights so if it builds up, itll dry out..and it did dry out after a bit, but he said if it continues to be an issue, just bring her in and we’ll get a warranty replacement headlight, no biggie. OH and i got the $1000 off incentive no problem!!
but my god, that color is INSANE. it’s even better in person!!!! here’s some pics!!

Nice. That color looks beautiful in the dark, probably nice in the sun too! Blue must be your color.

Omg so freaking crazy! I dunno what is up. I just called Ford Performance to see if they could tell me why my car hasn't shipped. Gave the last 8 of the VIN he said "it was delivered today at 12:21" I said thats odd as the tracker has said it hasn't even shipped yet as of yesterday. He said dealerships in Michigan can get them quickly. I said im in south central TN and asked when did it say it was shipped. He said oh my it says it was shipped yesterday on convoy no way it made it to TN. He looked further and said it absolutely says shipped to TN he said i better reach out to my dealer. So i did and he just responded (in like 2 minutes) He said yep it was dropped off right after midnight around 12:30.

Do not trust that ford tracker or updates!

My car arrived at my dealer this morning! They said they need a few hours to get it ready and do the inspection. Planning to go around 2 to pick it up!!
Congrats everyone on your Mustangs arriving! Lol like another person mentioned it's raining Mustangs!:giggle:

Congrats on getting your car finally. 🥳 Nothing like that first feeling when you get it.

I can 2nd the comment on the clutch pedal extender. I am 6' and to drive the car where I could operate the clutch and stick comfortably I had to scoot farther up than any other car. I bought an extender for the clutch pedal that gives a couple more inches, and now I can sit farther back like I used to in automatics.

Show them this and they will take it off the top.... they have too
I told my dealer about this a few weeks before my GT/CS was delivered and they said no problem. I forgot all about it when i picked the stang up....was too excited to get it home and didn't realize the $1,000 rebate was not added. I called the dealer about a week or two after delivery and they cut me a check. If I hadn't pursued it I don't know if they would. Make sure you call them if you bought during the rebate time frame.
