Any 2015 GT Premium Owners? Some questions...

I can only answer on hd radio as I will b picking my stang tomorrow. Satellite radio are both digital but to make a long story short hd radio will sound better making an fm signal cd quality.

Thanks lpd39. Its true the HD Radio is amazing... Have never heard such good quality before... Unfortunately the Sirius is worthless in comparison. Already downgraded to minimum package.

2) Seems everyone has the brake screeching issue... I am getting used to it, but my neighbors love it (grin)

The braking issue seems limited to the base GT brakes, which is the same brake on the 2.3 EB PP. I've not seen anyone report a resolution yet. I have the 15" Brembo on a GT PP, no noises.

4) What can I do to increase the horespower that won't void warranty/lease? Do I just drop it off at Ford Racing at a dealer and have them install a tuner? Is that pretty much it?

I've not seen a Tune available from Ford Racing for the 2015 Mustang, yet. While a Tune will not void your vehicle warranty, any warranty related issues to a Tune could have them blaming the Tune and deny said warranty claim.

5) Why is there no launch control on the automatic version?

Because it really isn't needed since the stock torque converter is limited to how many RPM's it can flash to. This is not a Ford design limitation, but a torque converter design limitation. If you want to drag race with a automatic and want a higher rpm flash to launch off the line with, you have to get something like a Circle D high stall converter. The down side to this is that driving at normal low rpm cruising speeds will take more throttle to move the car the same since the converter will essentially be like a constantly slipping clutch until the converters designed rpm range is reached.

Thanks KN!

It's really a shame that I, and everyone around me, must grimace at a shrieking brakes on a $43K brand new car. Worst part is, they see the car and are impressed, until around the point where they need to cover up their ears.

Regarding the tune - I really need to add some HP to this car, at first I was blown away by how fast I can go from 0 to 45, but now it seems kind of dull (did I just get used to it??). So sounds like I don't have many options, eh?

Yep, changed mind

Well as I was getting tried of waiting for a Scat Pack Charger and started thinking about buying another Stang. Had an 11 I traded for a Charger Super Bee, just because of the damn brake noise on my 11. I am glad I saw this. That crap was embarrassing!! Nothing like spending 45K for a car that sounds like the old Yugo!

Then the complaint of being slow after 60, WTH???
