[QUOTE="SirJAG, post: 14491468, member: 135090"] Was just able to test drive the new mustang. It was a GT trackpack/nav/MT/50th. The interior is much improved, and I really liked the ride quality. Lightyears ahead of my 12 GT/CS. The shifter is much much better stock than previously. I made several full throttle starts up through 4th then letting off. I had no gear grind at all, but did feel a slight nibble going into 2nd around 6800rpm. I had zero wheel hop as well which was a plus! I made sure and drive some country roads behind my house that I am limited to around 30mph on my current car because of the shitty quality. The new mustang was able to ride the same road at 50mph with no issue. Completely blew my mind. My only concerns at this point are the following: Can AED tune this bad boy yet? (The throttle lag compared to my 12 tuned AED is horrible) [COLOR="#FF0000"]AED not doing anything with tuning this car in 2014[/COLOR] Are there lowering springs available yet? (the back is perfect height but the front is silly tall, almost a tad taller than the back even. I am sure thats not really the case but it appears to be.) [COLOR="#FF0000"]yes steeda[/COLOR] Needs exhaust, bad. (And I only have gt500 with no resonators now) Does Ford Applink come on this years MyFordTouch??

If not as I get answers I will update the thread. JAG EDIT: ooooohhhhhhh there is one thing I forgot to add HAS EXACT SAME TICK MY 12 HAS HAD SINCE 89 MILES!!!!!!!! Damn it! However, I listened to 3 GT's and only the one I drove made the sounds. So looks like it is going to be hit or miss like the 11-14s. [/QUOTE]
