The G Man Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Placed a deposit on one of these back in May, delivery not until 2016 though:( Going to try and keep my Nismo but I've had two firm offers from two guys who are prepared to wait, quite serious offers as well . Bought the exhaust already for the 'Stang, a FRPP Touring by Borla, just waiting on the ransom note from customs couple of other mods in the pipeline, just need to confirm what suspension comes with the PP spec. Fords marketing in Europe, UK and Australia is shocking though, I think that's down to an unexpected demand, especially in the RHD market. One good thing is my price is locked in, day before a £1k price rise as well, apparently, there's just been another rise?!?! Well thanks to StevoD for his posts way back on stirring my interest . Can't wait to get back to RX8 levels of fuel consumption 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ekona Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Bet you can't wait to own a car that doesn't need the driver to wear a brown paper bag for fear of embarrassment over the looks* ;) Great choice, I suspect you'll have a massive amount of fun with that. Any ideas on when in 2016? *Yes, just like 6 series owners have to! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any ideas on when in 2016? I wear the bag with pride Q3 has been promised, possibly earlier. There's a lot that, hopefully ford will sort out by then for the Champions League buyers, who are still waiting for their cars, any issues that will inevitably be there on the earliest cars. One things for certain, the Coyote won't need sorting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleR Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Thats the exact combo I want. I can't wait until you sell the Ford to me in a couple of years for half RRP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One things for certain, the Coyote won't need sorting. hopefully all niggles will be sorted with it being out in the US for nearly 2 years haha but that coyote motor is sweet get a Bama tune on it if i had the money i would be joining you be it with an ecoboost Edited July 28, 2015 by StevoD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The G Man Posted July 28, 2015 Author Share Posted July 28, 2015 Eco boost is going to be a great car, 300 odd HP out the packet, with loads that can be done to it. Need to get my head round all the tunes available, they seem to nonchalantly put a new one on their cars in the U.S. Every other day! That Roush though......just wow! Got to love the Line Lock can see that being a big hit with the neighbours Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
