Should we see some pretty big cuts on the price of the '17s? My wife wants a mustang and she honestly won't know the difference between the two, lol. They are $10k off msrp right now, not going down too much more than that, but they will drop a little more. That also means desirable combos will be harder to get, so pick your poison. |

18s have a lot more power from a new fuel delivery setup and they have a ten speed auto. Lots of tweaks to the performance offerings also but my guess is that if those mattered to you, you'd be willing to pay for the 18.

Where are you seeing 10k off? I sell them and I'm not seeing that. At least in my area there is a $2000 rebate and that's it unless you get the military or first responder rebate. Quote HistoryQuoted:

Maybe I should send a hauler to your place. I do not know how they are getting it that low. I can't buy one that cheap on d-plan. Do you get something like the focus owner loyalty or some other certificate like that? Quote HistoryQuoted:

Ford Performance’s Power Pack 2 gets you the same HP/TQ as the 2018 and you can keep your warranty. The new auto is nice if you want an auto, if you’re interested in a manual though obviously it won’t matter. The new gauge setup is nice. Unfortunately the 2018 looks retarded. |

It isn’t available. In any case, my point was just that you could do it, and if you can scoop a ‘17 for a better price then you can have the same power in a better looking car for less money. Obviously if the new auto or gauges matter to the buyer then that has to be taken into account too. The big thing is the fuel system is new. Port and DI. |

How do you figure? I’ve seen ecoboosts on track and while I’d argue the PP on a GT would be ideal (for cooling mainly) you certainly don’t need to spend a ton for something workable. A GT PP car is well under $40k. Although if it wasn't going to be the latest and greatest I'd buy used. |

I like that guys that constantly complain that the Mustang has 'put on too many pounds' when just about every successive year has been heavier, but has also been faster in a straight line and on the track in almost every regard.

It looks like someone told a designer to make it “more aggressive” and the designer didn’t really know what to do so they just of pinched things to make the car look angrier. It doesn’t really look purposeful or fit with the initial style of the car, it really looks like they just wanted something that looked angrier. |
