Hypermotive put some pics up of airlift and HRE wheels. Looked pretty sweet together... I still have yet to see one in person

As mentioned, the car is headed directly to Corsa Performance for a complete exhaust system (likely mid/cat-back). I'm still undecided on Xtreme vs. Sport, Polished vs. Black but I have plenty of time to decide as the vehicle will be there for ~5 weeks. I'm definitely going forced induction right out of the gates and may be also ordering a set of either CCW, HRE, or Vossens if I can sell the Performance Package wheels for a decent number (looks like $1200+shipping has drawn a lot of interest, no tires included). I'm waiting to hear what companies such as Hellion bring to the table before deciding on the FI setup. It's likely either Whipple or Hellion at this point. We will see. Other than that, I'd love to get an air ride suspension on the car but I might have to settle for upgrading the shocks/struts for now to limit the wheel hop associated with the IRS. Looking forward to hearing more about the IRS as well and what may or may not fail when the big name shops put them to the test.

If yours is still in the box you're not doing it right.

Words csn not describe how much I love this car! I have driven pretty much all platforms of the Mustang (EFI) and this is the best experience I have ever had with one that's stock. It's sneaky fast. And refined, almost like a newer CTS-V. IMO, you can't fully appreciate it until you see it and you can't fully understand until you drive it. They hit a home run with the '15.
