I think you are spot on there. When you think of it that is such a weird development. For the Mach-E Ford developed the ultimate universal global Mustang tail light, with three horizontal bars beautifully integrated into the bodywork, a horizontal running flashlight bar running across them and...

The tail lights are actually functional on this particular racing model. They can be seen on in the short intro video that Patio208 posted. From the pictures my guess is that the front lights are non functional though. They look like dark lexan with three horizontal decals on them to mimick the...

The taillights do appear to be a bit more smoked than the current ones though.

On April 1st they'll probably say 'based on customer feedback we have decided to change the dashboard design to an upgraded version of the one we had in S550' and then laugh at us on April 2nd because we all believed it.

There is your first hint that the export models will have non-red taillights.

Thank you, I completely agree. Again, I completely agree. Porsche designers are meticulous masters in going digital without losing their iconic design heritage. Ford UTTERLY failed here and completely ruined one of the key design elements that make a Mustang a Mustang and not a Kia.

Exact same experience here. Mazda's rotary user controls are very much like BMW iDrive used to be, super intuitive and much more suited for use in a car than any touch screen will ever be. I recently had to explain to my wife that the screen in her Mazda actually also has touch functionality...

If you think that Ford doesn't care about people's opinion on the new design you couldn't be more wrong. At this very moments plans for the S650 facelift are being developed. Social media reactions and forums like this are being monitored extensively.

Same here. I actually have an EcoBoost grille in my 2016 GT because it just looks cleaner.

My guess would be that an S650 edition would be GT based, since the Dark Horse front end styling might be a little too aggressive for the subdued concept of the Bullitt. It would require clean custom grille without fangs though, like they did with the S550 edition. Using an EB grille and/or...

That's because contrary to Ford Porsche actually employs highly professional design managers, who know into their deepest cores what a 911 is and how they can modernize and evolve it within the heritage, both exterior and interior wise. And time and again they do a masterful job at this with...

Sync2 already supported a quadzillion voice commands 10 years ago. A lot of people never read the manual though and have no clue what it can do. I have more than once surprised a fellow S550 owner by changing the climate control setting by voice. In the end of the day it's still unnatural though...

And they have just decided to go for the kill:

Exactly. With a heritage dashboard they will not lose a single sale to a millennial or zoomer who's going "like dude, like where's the touch screen dude, you know like how am I going to you know like operate this thing you know?". Whereas the demographic that can actually afford a 60K car is...

Best: Heated Recaros Worst: New asymmetrical dashboard design with piss poor screen integration and zero double brow heritage Absolutely hideous: GT grille design

In Poland. So that might be an unnecessarily expensive option for you. Just look for a car interior upholstery specialist in your area, they should be able to help you out.

Amen

I can't help but wonder about the amount of glare you're going to have in a convertible with the top down. 😏 And all this just to follow some stupid modernistic fad. The S550 dash has a perfect glare free housing for the digital instrument cluster and could have easily be adapted to house a 2...

And so did Ford :crackup:

Exactly. As long as the base of the design is completely wrong (a shelf with two tablets stuck to it) then you can spend a quadzillion hours of time and effort on it and you still end up with a shit product. It's a sad day in history when you cannot tell a Mustang dash from that of a Chevy...
