2024 Mustang Australia (AU) Pricing and Timing Schedule

[BirdieDH]

Is remote start/rev working on your car? and can you show how you mount your front number plate? Thanks.
Love to see more photos

No the manual is only lock/unlock from the app. And the front plate I’m yet to mount as I’m waiting for a flow bracket as a member on here suggested. I’ve just got the front plate with a strong double sided tape for now. But once I mount the plate I’ll upload some pics and what I did. And for sure let me know what pics you would like to see. And I can confirm I don’t have any start/stop at all.

Thank you and it’s the blue ember color. And thankful that is just a reflection of the clouds

Rare colour, and as I am sure you already know, "Blue Ember (is) available on Dark Horse models only" and includes Dark Horse Appearance Pack as standard

Just found this great "Walk Around" on the UK site - just choose your colour.

Interesting that the Poms call it Lucid Red and not Rapid Red, same paint code.
They have a variable price scale for paint colours, and Race Red comes at extra cost.
Red Brembos are not mandatory with MagneRide.

I was working in the UK two weeks ago... couldn't wait to get home!
Our crap exchange rate buys ~ 50p for every Aussie Pacific Peso, so it's expensive.

A similarly equipped GT to mine (Manual, white, MagneRide, red Brembos) has an OTR price there which translates to an absurd AUD$115k.

Hi BirdieDH, how are you finding the Recaro seats? I have heard that for some people the side bolster can slightly hit your elbow when changing years in the manual cars. Have you found any issues with this?
Another question, does the Aussie DH come with a strut tower brace? I believe this is something the Aussie Mach1's missed out on as well in previous years.

Hey mate, um to answer the question about the Recaro’s well I’ve only driven it for about 20 minutes but tbh I’m 6 foot tall and about 110kg and only slight issues was getting out which is understandable but driving it is really comfortable. And yes the DH comes with a strut tower brace which is nice considering what we are paying.

Awesome, thanks mate. Glad to see we are getting some value for the extra 20k we are paying over a GT. Hopefully that Tremec feels really good. Glad you're not having any issues with those seats as well. Can't wait for mine to arrive.

Also just for people wondering the plates are on I just decided to save the $200 from purchasing a flow brace and used the kingpin plastic one that was given from the dealer but I managed to used some rubber grommets/ washers between the kingpin and the bumper to try and make it flush also used slightly longer screws to attach the kingpin bracket to the bumper but then used shorter screws to attach the plates to the kingpin bracket.so I don’t need bend the plate at all.

The Tremec is absolutely beautiful the feels between shifts are amazing honestly on the amount of time I’ve only driven it feels really nice. And tbh that was the selling point for me cause that gearbox alone is around $10k if I’m not mistaken and was a big factor into me buying the DH also the torsen differential.

Yeah same to me. I mean 20k over a GT was a tough pill to swallow. For me, it's made up in the wheels which I love, the Tremec, Torsen diff and the spoiler. Oh and the strut tower brace!

Yeah I was the same but honestly was always my boy hood dream to own a mustang and if I was gonna buy one I’m glad I purchased the DH. Um also if anyone is interested about the puddle lamps I’ll attach a pic of what they look like.

Are you selling up? I just seen exact photos you posted on carsales whilst browsing haha

Well I'll be damned! For once we get something that the US boys dont get.

I mentioned some time ago in this thread that I think Ford has a mistake on the S650 brochure and spec sheet. They listed the Recaro seats as: "Recaro® Sport Seats with unique Dark Horse design (6-Way Power, Manual Back Rest Adjustment, Without Heating or Cooling"
I thought this was a mistake because in the US the Recaros are manual seats, not electric powered.
Then I noticed this in BirdieDH's Carsales photos and we do get electric powered seats it seems:
