I'd find that hard to believe. Maybe in some aspects but the ride on PP was noticeable harsher. Doubt they will make the base cars ride like that. So it would have to be using softer springs/dampers than the old PP at least.

I'm just going off what Ford announced..that the old PP is basically the new base.

The old Mustang PP was barely on par with a regular SS. Even the V6 1LE was giving the Mustang a run for the money. I'd be really shocked if the 2018 Mustang PP1 is close to being on par with the SS 1LE. Maybe a step above a regular SS now. Pretty confident it will take the PP2 to match the 1LE. Regardless, even if the PP2 is faster, give it a few laps and it will probably go into limp mode because of the coolers it's missing, whereas the 1LE will keep pounding out lap after lap.

Ah ok I remember the press statement now. We will probably never know anyways what the base performs like b/c no one will do a numbers review on one.

This is why it’s not the PP2

I thought my 15 sounded pretty decent when it was stock...for a stock V*. Once I added a catback to it tho it droned like crazy. It sounded good but the drone was unbearable.

It’s a little disappointing they didn’t wait until the PP2 was out. I don’t see them doing another H2H later on.

Agreed, this should be a SS v Mustang GTPP1 comparison. They are yet to do a H2H with the 1LE and a worthy competitor.
