If its complied in Australia in 2015 its a 2015 model . If its 1 st regerested now in 2016 but complied in 2015 its a 2015 model . Even tho in America they call late year build dates the next year , that's for the USA only . It all comes down to when it gets its Australian compliance . Take new cars sold now this month ior next month and 2016 and the compliance plate says 2015 that's it for the rest of its life its a 2015 .

The new mustangs that are hear now can be 2015 or 2016 models it comes down to when it goes through the Australian compliance not when it's built or sold or how long its been here . And yes Ryan yours is a 2015 model not a 2016 and never will be .

Those plates would have been $2395 right ,How much are you willing to spend ? If that much why not NEWMUZ or NEW ONE etc etc

So with the sprinkling of rain around this morning I gave the Wet/Snow mode a go. I must say that it is very noticeable, the car feels a lot less responsive but safer at the same time (if that makes any sense what so ever). We had to buy a new pram today as our current one will not fit in the boot. Did a run down to the home maker centre in Springwood and parking can be a challenge if you are getting a toddler in an out of the back seat due to the fact you need the room to open the back door quite a way.

Started to cop a bit of the dirties from some old tart when we pulled up and parked in the "parents with prams" parking - well till she saw we had Seb and were in fact parents with a pram haha

You certainly wouldn't want to buy one of these if you want to keep a low profile. Lots of people taking photos - even two of the guys from the Holden dealership down at Springwood. Their sale mustn't be going to o well if they have time to stand out the front and take photos of a Ford hahah =)

Love the car. I loved my MKII Focus RS MP350 and was devastated when it was sold to fund a wedding and replaced with a Nissan X-Trail (what the hell was I thinking) but I think I have moved on finally and so has the X-Trail =)

So Glenn when are you buying one?

mojocoops · « **Reply #60 on:** January 16, 2016, 08:05:06 pm »

So looks like the tri-bar running lights are working on Neil's GT? Or do they only come on with headlights and aren't actual running lights?

shelby_mustro · « **Reply #61 on:** January 16, 2016, 08:07:34 pm »

I've also noticed we don't get a sub box in the boot like the yanks do and my try bars DOSENT work.

I wonder what the difference is between yours and Neil's for his tri-bars to be working?

Decided to give Sport+ mode a go today. Flicked over to it at the lights on the way home from grocery shopping. The idle went up from about 650 to 800, and when I gave it a bit of happy juice to "get up to the legal speed limit" the punch around 3,500 was noticeably more potent than in Normal mode. Change to second wasn't (longevity of) tyre friendly. The 80 kph speed limit came by rather quickly. All in all I think I'll stick with the Normal mode mostly - but it is nice to know what the others do. That said I am not quite ready to give the Track mode a test just yet haha.

Hi all,

Picking up the new ride in a couple of weeks. Was wondering if anyone could fill me in on the best size personalised plates to purchase that will fit best on the 2015 mustang. I'm in QLD but am pretty sure most states have similar dimensions for plates.

All help will be greatly appreciated!!!

Cheers,
Grant

GLENN 70 · « **Reply #68 on:** January 17, 2016, 08:36:32 pm »

gedore welcome ,and for plate size if it were me I think I would get std QLD size for the rear and slimline size for the front and not use the factory backing plate they have for the car . Unless you want to go USA size plates and if then I would go USA size on the rear and slimline for front .

It will probably loosen up a bit after the 1600m klm run in period - you haven't done that many in the few days since you picked it up have you? Or maybe you have

Cheers

Well I have washed ours another time and noticed that the drivers side windscreen wiper cannot be raised to wash the windscreen, it would hit scratch the bonnet.

GLENN 70 · « **Reply #72 on:** January 20, 2016, 08:21:07 pm »

Are you kidding ,what it won't lift up so you can clean the windscreen
