2012 Stangs
#14
One of these days I should get one of those hanging scale things and see how much force is required to turn the wheel in its three settings. I've never driven an '11, but I would think the "standard" setting is what the '11 has. The "sport" setting gives very little assistance, and consequently you get great road feel. Some muscle is required to turn the wheel; people who have never seen the inside of a gym might want to leave it on the standard setting.

I hate when companies start rolling too many options together. It's okay when they package them and offer a discount for buying a bunch together, but when you can't buy them separately that sucks.

Ouch that sucks. I'm glad I didn't wait around, as I did want the security package but didn't want or really need HIDs.

From what I see on Ford's website, 2012 options include two packages that include security: one with HIDs for $920 and another with reverse sensing for $695. Not a huge difference in pricing, but better than a single option for $900+.

The S197 cannot be that hard to turn if you lose steering assist, is it?

So if you had the option (question aimed to the faceless masses), if you had to buy (or re buy) a mustang, 2011/2012 or an upcoming model, which would you choose?
Im referring to just regular (base,premium etc) packages.
Now with the choice you just made, if you had the choice to purchase a earlier model of a GT500 (used, and average on all fronts, nothing super special, like really low miles or anything) Would you prefer that over the new 5.0?
Just curious...
edit:
hmm just realized I kinda hijacked...my bad. I thought of it when I read the thread title.
I'm just wondering how much value is placed on certain things, like being the first owner of a 5.0 or getting the big dog thats got like 50k or similar mileage on it.

Has anyone received their 2012s yet? I feel like I've been waiting an eternity, which I have! Since November for a 2011, now another 3 weeks for a 2012.....ugh. I'm a patient guy, but it's really wearing thin lol.
