The electronic power steering is set that way, if you would’ve went to sport or track it would’ve tightened up some.

Good to know, the screen was kind of difficult to figure out for me, didn’t flow very well, and never watched a video tutorial on one, guess that’s next…
It was kind of a struggle just finding the active exhaust feature.
The plastic screen protector that displayed do not remove all over it didn’t help matters…

This is an Auto, I'm not sure of the gear, it was whatever the cruising gear was.
Now that im on my laptop, that was a dumb question on my part....
Theres only the shift indicator in the instrument cluster.....
So 3.55, auto.
Doesnt seem much different or any at all from what I experienced with the 3.15's

I think it comes down to the actual tires used... I just picked up a 25 with the 255/40R19 Continental Pro Contact tires... and I don't like them. They are more of a touring tire, not a performance tire... I may replace them right away with DWS06 tires. The PP car has PZeros... I also have a PP car and just let go of the base model S550 with same size DWS06s. Have driven a combo of different mustangs with PZeros, DWS06s and pilot sport AS tires, and even a base model car feels more planted with any of those compared to the ones that came on the newest S650.
went back today to take a peak at the tires...
The base & the PP car both had the Perrelli PZero
the PP said 101Y
base said AS3

Still digging, researching, passing the time....
Just realized, which is a huge bummer...
Cant de-badge the front fenders as they have the typical alignment holes in the fender for the 5.0 badge.
Also cant take the horse off the front grill, looks way better without.....
🥴

My head hurts....
Ok...
Premium package sounds like a good idea, maybe...
What Im mind f'ing myself on is the wheels...
Will want to do alot to the ride right out the gate, last thing I want to do is replace wheels.
Part of me feels like I really dont want the night pony package...
Im doing Oxford white.
I can take or leave the black roof...
The darker head lights dont do anything for me....
I can easily replace / blackout badges....
wheel #1 I would love wheel #1, but as far as im reading it, requires NP & PP....
wheel #2 works but dont love, requires the NP
wheel #3 comes with the vehicle, dont love but looks good from a distance.

Lots of black & white contrast, tinting windows & windshield...

Are folks going to a larger tire like the 275 40 - 305 40 on these non staggered wheels, or is that just going to be a con in the handling dept?
Thats my #1 objective want this car to handle great in the turns!

From what im seeing, after market decent looking wheel on steeda atleast arent the cheapest.
My local discount tire actually pays decent money for new trade-up tires...
Theyre not interested in wheels.
My point, if I get a 255 in all 4 corners.
Hell I dont even know if I want square or staggered.
Seems like most here go staggered tire size.
As I said from the get go, I hate making decisions.
Love some insight & thoughts.
Another note, dont think the wheel scenario changes any if I decide to go with a base model.

Have you considered the Bronze package wheel? It is basically wheel #2 in bronze. It also gets you the bronze pony & emblems.

Wheel #1 has 25 holes to clean. If you like that sort of thing, more power to you.
