Default 2015 Performance Pack?

Performance Package only show upgrade in wheels, tires, and 3.73 rear end is that all? Does this not give you any upgrade in brakes and suspension?

^ applies to the GT, not the EB.

Thanks I thought there was more to it; I drove a white 2015 with Performance Pack the other night loved it but a little more than I want to spend right now. The only options the GT had was recaro cloth seats and Performance Pack MSRP was $37,015.

I got my, non performance pack, fully loaded GT premium for $36k. It's msrp was little more than the one you test drove. Just because a GT doesn't have the PP, doesn't make it less of a performance car. Trust me, I've driven both. Here's mine.

That's a beauty,C.
I assume that the PP is the same as the Track Pack of 2014? I drove a 2014 with it,what a turn off-I couldn't believe how stiffly the car rode.

Thank you! I would assume for the most part, it's the same. The suspension will most likely be different, due to the irs out back and new front set up. Only bad thing with the Recaros is you don't get the heated/cooled power seat option. Most reviewers praise the new standard seats, and most say they prefer them over the Recaros.

I saw several S550s driving around in the big cities of Central Texas, but they were all sixxers; no Ecos or GTs, much less GT PPs.

The only place I have seen any S550 GT PPs are on the dealerships. I think I will take one for a test drive sometime after Christmas.

I just saw a Burgundy 50th anniversary edition displayed at 12 oaks mall in Novi, MI, and I must admit it was very nice looking car. Ford finally has put an effort into making functional aero-dynamics that add to the look of the car. Erik
