Wow that looks great. Figures the base ecoboost has better looking wheels than a GT premium. Stripes look nice!
Thanks! These wheels are part of the wheels and stripes package, a little different than the base EB wheels. These are 19” and really look nice, the online Ford builder is doing a severe injustice to this package.Wow that looks great. Figures the base ecoboost has better looking wheels than a GT premium.

Hey no explanation needed. That's a beautiful Mustang. I'm sure your wife loves it. If I wasn't stuck on getting a stick I'd consider an Ecoboost. Just wish I could get those wheels on the GT I want.Thanks! These wheels are part of the wheels and stripes package, a little different than the base EB wheels.

Everyone always asks why didn’t you get a GT lol. This is my wife’s car and well, I already have one GT at the house (2022 Eruption Green 401A) and frankly I after driving the Ecoboost (other than that exhaust from the GT) I feel the value is far exceeded with the EB as the 0-60 indifference isn’t broad enough to justify another 10k….but that GT sound lol. If you drag the GT or like to exceed the speed limit excessively that’s a whole different ballgame. If money was no object it would be a GT hands down but annual property taxes based on value, Fuel and Insurance play a role in the decision as well.
I really like how light the EB drives especially on back country 2 lane roads. If I were to trade my 22 for a 24 and the choice was Premium 201A with HPP and Magenride vs a Base GT 300A I would really have to think about it. I don’t spend a lot of time over 65 mph. Coincidentally my wife cancelled a 2024 EB HPP with Magenride when the strike started and bought the Convertible.
I hear ya. Ford says that sales of the Manual in the Ecoboost was so low that they did not feel it was profitable enough to offer it for the 2024, I’m not so sure about that. Maybe allow the Manual if you order the HPP at minimum??????Hey no explanation needed. That's a beautiful Mustang. I'm sure your wife loves it.

Lookin' good! Thanks for sharing
Gotta say I’m a convert, I was a hard NO after the reveal.S650 v S550...............don't get me wrong, I love the looks of the S550, but the S650 looks SO much sharper here!

Same here. When I started seeing side-by-side pictures like this I began to understand how much better the new front end looks. It has a bolder and more masculine look now IMO.Gotta say I’m a convert, I was a hard NO after the reveal.
Beautiful Mustang!Here’s my 301A from Granger (best dealer I’ve ever worked with), a bit dusty from the dirt roads here, we’re at 8000ft elevation
