GOD DAMMIT I SHOULD HAVE WAITED!!!(And it was a stick too!) -_-

I finally see one up close and in person, and I see why buying a FoST was me being impatient.

Puck it. I'm buying a GT when I'm out of college. No question about that.

They released pricing two weeks after I got my Genesis Coupe. It will be traded in on a 2016 GT.

I was configuring one last night. If you think your $300/mo is bad try over $500/mo

Well to be fair, the FoST is more practical if the people you drive around need limbs.

Are these for sale now?

K-Roll-PorscheTamer > hoonarchy
08/14/2014 at 17:53

They announced the date for release not even a month after I get my FoST. All I needed to do was wait 6 more months!!

How'd you configure it? I haven't configured one yet.

Ford.com, I was looking at Focuses and and decided to do one. Right away a GT was like 450/mo. I think they just recently put the new one in the configuration thing. Two weeks ago it was still the 2014.

Manuél Ferrari > K-Roll-PorscheTamer

What you should have done is buy the winter beater first and drove it all year until ze Mustang was available!

Unless you all want to double down on buyers remorse you should probably wait and see how it stacks up to the next Camaro.

You can only buy a V6 IF and only IF you have the manual.

The only Mustang I would want to own is the "SVO". as long as it has a turbo 4 I will call it an SVO. I can't handle the thirsty V8.

I just need a time machine to go back in time and stop myself from buying an ST and saving myself some damn money.

norskracer98-ExploringTheOutback > Manuél Ferrari

Yep, luckily my NY winter is usually about 40 warmer at our coldest. We only get to -10 as the coldest

 V8 Rustler > K-Roll-PorscheTamer
08/14/2014 at 18:07

You should have never bought an ST to start with. Was it all the hype that made you buy it?

K-Roll-PorscheTamer > Luc - The Acadian Oppo

I will take whatever the fuck I can get. As long as it isn't that damn Ecoboost that sounds like crap!

How much more would you have saved if you hadn't purchased the ST?

K-Roll-PorscheTamer > V8 Rustler
08/14/2014 at 18:09

No. I asked Oppo for help, this is what the majority said to get, I knew nothing about cars when I got it. Since then I've learned a hella lot about cars and if I knew then what I know now, I wouldn't have a FoST now nor would I have put $1200 into it in the FIRST MONTH to make it what I wanted.

K-Roll-PorscheTamer > norskracer98-ExploringTheOutback

About $1500 which could go to other things and the Mustang had I bought one!!

Manuél Ferrari > K-Roll-PorscheTamer

Then why didn't you know you need a winter beater?

FromCanadaWithLove > K-Roll-PorscheTamer
08/14/2014 at 18:12

I just drove home in a M235i a week ago. I definitely would have cross shopped with the Mustang (Canada's getting things a little later than the States) but NO REGRETS.

K-Roll-PorscheTamer > Manuél Ferrari
08/14/2014 at 18:12

Because I never saw it as necessary unless I had a classic car; of which I never had until now.

norskracer98-ExploringTheOutback > Manuél Ferrari
08/14/2014 at 18:12

Technically we only have 1 also. The Giants and Jets are in NJ.

Manuél Ferrari > norskracer98-ExploringTheOutback
08/14/2014 at 18:14

True, true. But I still think of them as NY cause it's kinda the same thing :)

K-Roll-PorscheTamer > FromCanadaWithLove
08/14/2014 at 18:14

Why can't I have no regrets?? :(

An M235i doesn't even compare to a FoST, it's way the hell ahead of my league!! A Mustang and BMW are much closer and you could probably afford it.

 V8 Rustler > K-Roll-PorscheTamer
08/14/2014 at 18:15

We all make mistakes. You'll love having real oversteer with the mustang, not that BS lift-off oversteer with FWD cars. At least you now have a goal to work for.

Manuél Ferrari > K-Roll-PorscheTamer
08/14/2014 at 18:15

Ohhh, I see. You should move to CA one day.

I will forgive you for not being patient and waiting for the Mustang if you help me with something.

Where can I get an affordable but cool shift know for the 997? Ze default OEM knob is a bit boring and it looks cheap...

FromCanadaWithLove > K-Roll-PorscheTamer
08/14/2014 at 18:16

You can have regrets! I'm just saying that I don't. The FoST can definitely compare to a 228i, which isn't far from the 35i. The 228i be faster in a straight line, but I reckon you'd challenge them on the twisties.

I have a mega soft spot for the FoST and FiST. Great cars.

JGrabowMSt > K-Roll-PorscheTamer
08/14/2014 at 18:17

I may own a dodge, but honestly, I'm a GM guy. You can't honestly expect me to support anyone's decision (outside of a previous oppo in canada) to own a mustang right?

If you get one, you better drive the freakin wheels off that thing. I'll even drive out and race you in the wagon. I figure I'll have close to 200k on the clock by then, so it should be a fair race.

K-Roll-PorscheTamer > V8 Rustler
08/14/2014 at 18:23

I could have even bought a used GT or something and saved even more money!! -_-

K-Roll-PorscheTamer > Manuél Ferrari

I can try to help you with that.

K-Roll-PorscheTamer > FromCanadaWithLove
08/14/2014 at 18:27

I wish I didn't. If I hadn't listened to the advice of others I wouldn't be in a FoST. I'd take the BMW over a FoST. I don't even track the damn thing!

K-Roll-PorscheTamer > JGrabowMSt
08/14/2014 at 18:28

I can't even afford one now. :'(

Is there a problem with that? All cars should come manual only... Except Audis and Camrys...

JGrabowMSt > K-Roll-PorscheTamer
08/14/2014 at 18:33

I mean in a couple years at least. I just rolled over 146k in the wagon. I need some time to level the playing field a little for that mustang of yours.

K-Roll-PorscheTamer > norskracer98-ExploringTheOutback
08/14/2014 at 18:33

In March. What do you mean that's it?

norskracer98-ExploringTheOutback > AthomSfere

JGrabowMSt > K-Roll-PorscheTamer
08/14/2014 at 18:36

Come on, mustangs hold their value about as well as any Mercedes after a couple years. Give it some time and be patient about it.

Think of this elusive future mustang as the same as a cute little redhead. It'll happen when the time is right.

norskracer98-ExploringTheOutback > K-Roll-PorscheTamer
08/14/2014 at 18:37

It just sounded like you would've saved more than that. I guess $1,500 is still better than nothing. Do test drive one when they start appearing in dealers.

K-Roll-PorscheTamer > JGrabowMSt
08/14/2014 at 18:40

*Insert ticking clock here inside of an insane asylum here* I'm literally just staring at my ceiling right now waiting for something good to happen today. This day has been not a good one.

And I've gotta tell you what happened with that redhead last night later.

K-Roll-PorscheTamer > norskracer98-ExploringTheOutback
08/14/2014 at 18:42

The test drive will only kill me. I never got to test drive a 2014 Mustang anyway! This'll only make things worse. And that $1500 was all performance parts for the FoST to make it what I wanted in a car. More power, and an actual exhaust.

JGrabowMSt > K-Roll-PorscheTamer
08/14/2014 at 18:42

There may be worship, but it is a good car, a damn good one; that's something I can't complain about. But at least it's not the Miata levels or worship and praise.

08/14/2014 at 20:44

Same happened to me with my first car, but i didn't buy it because others advice.
Right now oppo isn't the best place to ask for buying a car, mechanic problems, yes. But buying cars no, they will always say ST brothers. They couldn't be more wrong. I dont know what they see in them.

The man in the iron mask > K-Roll-PorscheTamer
08/14/2014 at 20:46

Right, im sure when you asked for the advice, my answer was Mustang. Its the best way.

Vicente Esteve > K-Roll-PorscheTamer
08/15/2014 at 02:02

This post is so full of rage and frustration it made me chuckle. Your ST IS cool K-Roll! things happen for a reason! Probably, when the Mustang prices have come down, you can sell the ST, and get a used one with a little help from your father. I don't know, just saying stuff man!

K-Roll-PorscheTamer > Vicente Esteve
08/15/2014 at 02:03

But all I needed to do was test drive a 2014 to be sure the ST was the right choice; I was denied that chance. Who knows what could have been with that test drive!

K-Roll-PorscheTamer > Vicente Esteve

08/15/2014 at 07:32

I think the styling on the new mustang is kind of ugly. It reminds me of a taurus a few years ago. Especially where the rear pillar goes into the trunk, I just don't like it. Also, whats up with them REDUCING the horsepower on the V6?

K-Roll-PorscheTamer > Vicente Esteve
08/15/2014 at 09:07
