I have always had Pontiacs, but since that is no longer an option, I went with a Mustang this time. Ordered a 2018 GT in September. Finally got it January 13th.

GT Performance Pack
Magnetic Ride Technology suspension

Waiting for Magnaflow to release their cat-back for the 2018. Same with the cold air.

Put 1” drop Steeda springs on it. Warning on this one. The passenger rear is a problem because Ford decided to do reverse coils for the 2018. Steeda has not updated their kit, despite me calling and talking to them about it.

Anyway, LOVE the car and I am SO glad I bought it.

We ordered nearly this same car in January. It just got put onto a train today and I should get it in a week or so. By looking at your car pictures, I'm just on the other side of Houston (Richmond) from you. We ordered the Corsa Sport Exhaust which will arrive before the car.

Ingot Silver, ebony leather interior, GT Premium 401A equipment group, 10-speed auto, Magne-ride, and GT Performance Package

Nice choice. Yep, same car. Mine doesn’t look exactly stock anymore. Lol

Just put the Magnaflow Competition series exhaust on my car. Bought the one coated black. Looks good and sounds great!!

Just remember, if you plan on lowering your car, the rear passenger spring is reverse coil since you got the MagneRide. A normal spring kit won’t work.

We’ll have to meet up some time once your car comes in. I’m in the Clear Lake are.
