Default A few questions

Hey guys!

I'm looking to trade-in my 2014 for a 2015 and I have a few questions.

First of all, the Limited Slip Rear Axle. Is the 3.55's worth the 500$ over the 3.15? What does it change exactly? It's a manual gearbox by the way.

Also, does anyone knows what is included in the Interior Lighting Kit option?
Is it just the cup holders and the footwells or it includes the door sills and the gauges?

Thanks!

yes, I'd go for the 3.55s. you'll get quicker acceleration with only a small-ish fuel economy penalty.

The option is 395.(though I guess that the price is 500 north of the border)
Automatics come with 3:15.Sticks come with 3:31.

A performance gear for $400 is a deal. It'll cost you more than that down the road to have one installed. The lighting package is pretty much the same as in the 2014 it changes the color of the gauges, cup holder, foot well, door pull and the mustang font on the skuff plate when you open the door.

Thanks guys!

Yes, here in Canada the gear is a 500$ option.
And from what I see on the site, the 3.15 is standard on all V6.
Yes I forgot to mention that I'm looking for a V6 model.
There's no way for me to have a Mustang that sounds like a Honda. So no Ecoboost for me.
I know the way to go is the V8 but here, the base GT is around 46K (with the taxes). Too expensive.

I have the 2.89 gear in my 2012 V6 daily driver. While the car is a fantastic comuter car. When I take the car to the strip I will not cut a better sixty than 2.1 and im a very experienced drag racer. I'd love a 3.55 gear in my V6.
