    Anybody drive one yet? Reviews are mixed. They love the car on the street but not much faster on the track.

    The fact that the IRS cars aren't dramatically quicker at the track is a testament to how well Ford managed to dial in the live axle cars.

    I think Ford has done well.

    Ecoboost running mid 12's, GT in the 11's and SC GT in the 10's with a few mods.

    If you watch closely the Ecoboost gets some air under those stock front tires

    The live axle was never really a problem on a track, it was the street where there was an issue. I still prefer to have the live axle with some mods over the IRS.

    I do like the new Mustang, but not regretting purchasing my '14 at all like I was worried I would. I bought mine very late to get the deep discount knowing the hype around the '15. The '15s are just too heavy and the performance increase is non-existent. And to get any equipment in the car at all it gets to 50K very quickly, which is why there is an M235i sitting in the garage next to the '14 and not a '15GT.

    I stopped to look at the '15 at Shults in Hamarville. It was the Ecoboost model but I was really impressed. The styling looks great. No, it does not look like a Honda Accord or a 2 door Fusion. You really need to see it up close. The pictures do not do it justice.

    I like the styling of the car. Never got the Accord and Fusion comparison at all. I think it looks great even in pictures.

    Stopped at Shultz in Wexford and they had them set up side by side in lot '14, '15, '14, '15 etc. I can say honestly I think the '15 are better looking seeing them in person and being able to see the prior year right next to it. New ones are wider and seem lower.

    The Guard color is umm not bad but not what I thought it would look like. Kinda like Mineral grey with a slight greenish hue to it. I can safely rule that color out though. Also was surprised there was a base GT with no options at all.

    The black rockers have to go, but I agree the 2015 is a sweet looking car.

    Not impressed enough to get rid of my 14. I didn't really notice any power difference from my car when it was stock. The ride seemed a little smoother. I got on it hard a few times but did a little slip and slide on some wet roads. I do like the interior better but I'll still keep mine as I am still not sure I like the looks.

    I was gonna order one of the last 14's earlier in the year, but I just couldn't do it. I never liked the looks of the 05 up except the GT500.

    I am waiting to see what SVT offers before I stimulate the economy.

    Jeff - how about you get a roller LX like you had back in the day and run the Coyote Stock class?
