Default Ford is now taking orders on 2015 mustangs.

Power looks to be the same.

If the power is the same, why was every ford engineer saying that they applied what learned from boss 302 to this engine.

The engine uses boss pieces. I fully expect for Ford to pull the same stunt they did in 2010. New styling old engine. A year later out came the 5.0. I wouldn't be surprised to see the 2016 making 450-470

I would of been super pissed if I bought a 2010, even though I know there was rumors about the 5.0 when the 2010 came out.

Agreed. I saw one the other day with a license plate "2010 GT." I was thinking "you're proud of that?"

Didn't you run 13's? I would think a modded 10 would give YOU a run for your money. lol

With no track experience, I sure did. Give me more seat time and learning how to launch on street tires and that will change.

Isn't it dinner time for you? Bed time is only a couple hours away.

I bet the 2016 will be more powerful and have interesting additions.

I agree. They've hinted that the new 5.0 will get a significant increase. I'm really interested to see how this new IRS holds up and if there is going to be bad wheel hop or not.

I'm interested to see the reliability of said rear setup. As most mustang owners drag race. M3's don't like it to much.

man im glad I bought a 2014 now that I know this about the 15's. cause you know for the first 6-8 months they will be charging full sticker on a 2015 just because of the body change.
