Just picked up my SHO . I've been looking at them while and am very pleased so far. I traded in my '14 Focus ST. I have a question they list my car as a '15 but it's set up like the '16's and Etims lists the build date as 10/23/15 which I thought would make it a 16. Anyone have any inputs?
Other then that I love her !

Welcome, Flylow, congrats on the '15! Did you order from Ford, or pick up from a dealer lot? Production cycles have been known to not follow perfect timelines, especially in recent years. Maybe there's a crossover boundary where you get a 15/16 in this instance.

I didn't think the 15's got Sync 3 but I might be wrong. The last 6 digits of your vin should help because that's the build sequence..

Congrats on the upgrade, and welcome to the big leagues! If you have any questions about the car itself please do not hesitate to ask!

Congrats on the SHO! My '15 has a build date exactly one week later, 10/30/15 and has Sync 2.

An understatement to say the least. In July of 2014 I went down to buy a new 2014 and discovered there were several 2015's already on the lot. With not enough price savings between the two years and depreciation loss, I chose the 2015. My 2015 build date is 6/23/2014 and I took it home July 30, 2014.

I'm a ***** it's my touch sync 2 lol. I'm excited about getting through the break in period so I can unwind her. I'm going to change out the brakes with drilled and slotted rotors and ceramic pads from stop tech. Then Livernois tune. I've been looking for a good color scan tool so I can monitor boost pressure, AFR, EGT. I haven't seen any nice ones.

as far as I know, they are still building 15s and have not yet started with 16s.

There are definitely '16 out there. When I purchased my '15 a week ago they had a '16 SHO on the lot and I had to decide what to do. The deal on the '15 was too good to pass up.

The only difference on the sticker and according to the dealer I purchased from is the Sync system. I could not see or find anything else
