Great work on this one...
My dealer called on Saturday saying my GT has arrived and should be ready soon...!!!

Finally some good news. Latest screenshot indicates DH Off Line 26 August.
Assume next step is release for transport. ETA now blown out to 7 December.

Hey guys, I have a GT with magneride on order due to arrive March 25. I've just been offered a GT without magneride. Is this a deal breaker? especially those who have experienced both. Cheers

Ive never driven a Non MR gt and My s550 has the MR, its great but I went the opposite on the s650 order, I decided not to add it. I had a budget and it was either the Black pack or MR can't have both and the MR exceeded my budget with the LCT calculations which I already give enough of my mullah to the government they don't deserve more lol

Anyways if I am not happy with the performance on stock suspension I will get the Koni's suspension and much cheaper than MR. The Koni's patented Frequency Selective Damping technology, it controls large body motions and cornering forces but smooths expansion joints and rough roads for improved comfort. Steeda has the same product made by Konis but they got additional features.

Also I communicated with a Ford Engineer that claims the s650 stock suspension is much better than the s550 and that they changed the geometry for every region to be better suited on the roads.

Have a watch of this bloke on his opinion with GT PP without the MR.



Here is alternative to Ford's new MagneRide suspension option the Koni's

This is super helpful. Thanks mate.

Mustang Motorsport dropped the below video today. Interesting to see we also get two new gauge cluster themes, a 60's style and the 99' Cobra style with white dial faces.

It produced 320 rwkw on the dyno.

He didnt explain if the power output on the dyno is Whp or Bhp but I'll message them and find out. Thanks for sharing.

I have the Vapor blue.

I forgot to mention s650 MR now have a new feature, its the Active Pothole Mitigation system that senses when a wheel is falling into a pothole and adjusts the suspension so that the wheel doesn't fall as far into it & the Non MR struts typically come in cheaper for replacements (rear anyway), with the MR struts being about 3x that. Each. if you keep the car longer than most people do and that stuff IS an issue worth thinking about.

I have attached screen shot of a commenter from Mustang motor sport dyno / Review, he also asked what suspension is like....

Hi all, I've been lurking for a while but just decided to register. I had a conversation with my dealership yesterday that wasn't great.

I ordered a GT with black pack and Magneride back in November 2023. They told me that if I wanted the replacement bronze pack, my current order would be cancelled by Ford and I'd go to the back of the queue and start again. They estimated the car would arrive around the end of next year if I went ahead with this.

I told them I was astounded that Ford would do this. They essentially said FoMoCo doesn't care about a small market like Australia and that we get what were given because they look after the US first and foremost.

Has anyone else been given the same info?

Man this sucks. I was in the same boat. Ordered March 2023 rapid red. Got a call from dealer last week that my car will be built in Nov and delivered March but will be a my25 and I lose rapid red, so need to change colour. They weren't sure I could at this stage of order, I was pretty surprised and pissed, but as it turns out the change went ahead. I would call and speak to a manager, share my story that it can and has been done. Good luck.

Thanks, think I stick to my order. The non magneride available now is race red with black pack but think I'm digging the black and bronze I have on order more.

 

[Milooper]

Black with Bronze pack will look

If you can wait till next year then why not and yes the Bronze on Black is good mix how ever I wished they powered coated the exhaust tips bronze, the chrome looks offish with bronze GT emblem.
