though I have to agree with most of the reviews. on the road it just feels like a much smaller car than S197, even though it isn't. More buttoned down and the "jiggling" and "clomping" out back over uneven pavement is gone.

Love me some Jeremy Clarkson. He's an oaf very much so only for the camera; I doubt he does his crazy stuff naturally, because if he did, he would be dead by now.
Afterall, in this vid clip, he obviously began to take corners too hard and driving too hard on purpose for comedic purposes. Anyone esle would have immediately changed their driving habits after the very first rollover

Well Motor Trend did a Shootout between the 2015 Mustang GT w track pack and the Camaro SS with performance pack.
Basically the Mustang needs a better track pack. Stiffer suspension and responsive damping would have given it a better report.
Yet another disapointment, or considering its base GT package is better than the Camaro base SS.... All Ford really has to do is offer a better set of springs and shocks and they've nailed it. And considering the Camaro performance package also costs 1k more than the Mustang's... this is a case of you get what you pay for. Sadly in order to match or better what GM is dishing out.... The Blue oval guys will need to go aftermarket since what ever Ford is offering still falls a bit short of the mark.
<Sigh>

They are arriving at dealers for sure. Last night I stopped by Town East Ford here in the Dallas area and they had 5 of the '15s. 3 V6 and 1 GT track pack in Magnetic, on the lot. Another in the showroom (locked, couldn't look), but I could see a retro grill.
On the track pack, I couldn't get over the size of those front brakes, wow. The sticker listed a Torsen 3:73 among other things. It was stickered at $35k and change. Not bad.
To me, the Mustang looks better in person than in pics. Completely new with a nod to the '60s. There was a '12 on the lot and the difference between them was significant. The new car definitely looks lower and sleeker.

Ford's track packs have always sucked. You have to go to the aftermarket with experienced auto cross and track drivers. Ford gives people the cheapest shocks, a correct track pack would allow the Mustang to shine much brighter against BMW's and all comparisons.
I'm surprised their still pulling the same crap with this new IRS model. Erik
