Cool. But that's $10g more than eco boost in Australia, just like the ST focus, whilst I thought we were pretty much level pegging prices on imported car with aus these days. Hopefully the Japanese will buy them so we get them later!

Haha about $15k cheaper than various importers are selling imported versions for at the moment, how many will be making a loss having to cut prices to move them?

The Australian Japanese used car buyers and Russian used car buyers will probably pay more for a used Mustang in Japan in a few years time than a NZ used buyer? Japanese engine size tax favours the sale of ecoboosts rather than v8s?

Interesting thinking about its price and what compares. An 86 with performance chip and a few other goodies would still be less than eco boost, though smaller it's still a 2 plus 2. The V8, I dunno. What will compete once Aussie cars are gone. 370z is much smaller and no back seats. I'm stumped! That makes the v8 the possible best seller here at least. Maybe.

German performance coupes I think, and it beats them by a good margin in price. Won't be as refined still I don't think. Never know though, the C7 Corvette is compared to Porsches in almost every review now,

Could be some serious discussions about choice of mustang or focus with same ecoboost engine! Complete dichotomy.

Yes that new C7 is kicking some serious butt. Lhd though.

I understand 80% of the first shipment are v8

And beats them on every review. More horsepower, faster and half the price of a 911 Carrera.

Having owned a 7 speed manual and now an auto, they truly are awesome cars.

Considering the V8 in Aussie will cost $54990 and $71990 in NZ, they are getting a bargain when you take into account our exchange rates are approaching parity.

Interesting pricing - Ford USA website pricing. a brand new ecoboost mustang retails for US$23,880 which is just NZ$31,680. This is full retail with deals available through dealers. Allowing for freight/duty surely a 80% premium over the full retail price means we are still paying far too much here in NZ?
Ausi pricing confirmed today = NZ$46,668 for the ecoboost, and NZ$57,042 for the V8. Yep we're definately paying a lot more than we should be.
Karlp2, I agree but to be fair everyone pays more than US prices for pretty much anything, so the mustang isn't out of norm there. Plus I understand local taxes get added to advertised prices in US, it's not inclusive, though I stand to be corrected. At end of day ford have made a call as to how they want to price it and they evidently feel they can go for a premium and might be happy to not move too many. Bugger.
I configured an 86 with only a nice exhaust, no pricey wheels or suspension at all, and it's $46,000. To be fair the stang should carry an extra $10g, it's a fair bit bigger and even in ecoboost more powerful. That'll be a great two way comparison! Hopefully wheels mag do one.

Just got this from a Ford dealer. Backs up tg + convertible prices
EcoBoost?

It looks like those piss-pots will do about 14 sec 1/4's, straight out of the box. And with a bit of tuning they got one down to 12.69. Which is about what a V8 will do straight up. My 06 4.6 is supposed to get into the 12's

Not out of the box it won't. You might be lucky to hit high 13s in a manual, low 14s in an auto.

Overpriced, no cool factor when every man and his dog driving them. Anyone driven one, are they "vanilla" like most modern cars to drive, to smooth ? Give me an old skool crackling and popping carbureted muscle car anyday - The Kool Factor

Had to dredge this up.
Heard an interesting fact yesterday of an Auckland dealers stats. 50% of pre-ordered Mustangs are white, and the other 50% consists equally of red and black, with 4 blue ones chucked in. No green, orange or yellow have yet been ordered.
Would be interesting to know the engine stats.

WTF ? 17K more than what an Australian has to pay - stinks ! Through my eyes 2015 model not as nice looking as previous model anyway - lost the plot in more ways than one.
