The seats I had in the 15 GT premium were nowhere near the quality of the 2SS seats. I actually liked the seats in the S197 I had better. I will admit the Safe & Smart package is very nice to have. One thing I can't believe they haven't added is the full glass roof like the S197 had. It was a really cool thing to have and they took it away from the S550. As for a moonroof.. Have Mustangs ever had a moonroof?
As for the bench racing, It looks like Ford is putting a lot of hope in this A10 transmission. 5 more hp means almost nothing and the lack of torque will matter more. Like some have pointed out though, it will all come down to how that torque is managed. I tend to agree with those that have said this will be a mid to high 12 second Mustang unless the track is prepped with unicorn tears. I also think that if Ford had been putting down 1/4 mile times that beat the SS they would have published that info as well. For the last few years Ford has been focused more on handling than straight line performance and they will have no issues selling a mid to high 12 second car.
Any bets on how long American Muscle will take to build a 10 second 2018 GT?

I don't think the Mustang has offered a moonroof since the Foxbody, which I am glad about that I hate moonroofs lol.
And to be honest with you I am surprised Ford even said anything about any performance numbers. I don't recall them really ever releasing any type of numbers the way GM or Ford does. It seems like they always just let the magazines do the testing. The only performance numbers I really ever remember them saying is that the 13-14 GT500 could hit 200MPH
