2.7L auto upgrade is 1895 (auto tranny and engine) for all trims. It should either be more for non OBX trims, or less for the OBX trim. Since they confirmed 1,895 is accurate at last weeks event that means they may acknowledge the 1,895 should be less on the OBX in the upgrade B&P. As it was on the survey. The OBX base price already includes the cost of an auto. There are a few threads that go on at length about this.I must be missing something....every time I do BL build it adds $1595 (or so) to the price. How is it basically free on the BL. I do understand that its built into the price on the OBX, as it is on the Base 4DR and hope that there is a 2.7 price "correction" also on these particular trims.
People thought the 1895 was the cost of the engine only and they would add the cost of the tranny. The survey had a 3500 upgrade for the BL and 1600 for the OBX. Then the B&P just cut everything down the middle and made it 1895. BL guys thought they were basically getting a free tranny. And OBX guys were pissed because their upgrade cost was the same yet the base OBX price included an auto tranny on the 2.3. This is why the OBX feels overpriced and that is apparent when you build up an OBX compared to a BL.l.Ford may correct this. But for now it is what it is
Don’t want to side track this thread. There are other threads if you want more detail
