As someone else already said, it’s common practice for auto companies to select a few cars a day off the line to do a more in-depth quality check which includes driving the car on public roads, which obviously results in higher mileage at delivery. Frankly, I’d rather have a car like that...

GT, Night Pony, black stripes

How long has it been on the trim line for? Must be a pretty long line 😝

Bring back Royal Crimson or we riot 🤣

There really is no pleasing people. Say they shipped them right away before the quality was where it should be, then you’d be complaining that they should’ve fixed everything before shipping them out. But now they hold them to make sure the quality is good and people are mad they aren’t shipping.

Where should they store them, then?

Anyone order from Crest? They are about as close to the Flat Rock plant as possible.

Aero is probably better with it fake tbh

Paint car base color. Let dry. Mask car. Paint roof black. Let dry.

You could have a spur line or something for special paints like black roof. Run ‘em through the main process then pull them off into a separate booth for the roof. That way you can use the plumbing and abatement from the paint shop rather than have to build another abatement system in your “mod”...

Of course, according to the order guide you can’t get emberglo with the Premier Trim option, which means all emberglo cars have the awful hard plastic console.

I would pay extra to leave them off LOL

I bet Black Roof cars have their roofs painted in the paint shop… why build a second paint area when you could just paint them in the paint shop?

They don’t replace the roof panel. It’s part of the unibody and not removable unless you want to start cutting steel. They paint the car the base color, then paint the roof black.

Better to fix stuff now then build them wrong and make the customers deal with it.

I could be ok with the raccoon eyes if they were gloss black instead of “generic gray plastic” color. Truly baffles me that Ford picked a material that looks like body cladding on a base-model Escape for the nose of their flagship sports car.

I strongly suspect that the Dark Horse was the Mach 1 option, but the name was changed relatively late in development. The mentions you allude to of the Mach 1 were probably old verbiage that slipped through the cracks when they changed the name.

There is a Mach 1, it’s just called ‘Dark Horse’ this time.

I really wanted them to bring back Royal Crimson; it would look so good on the S650.

The only thing I’ve seen is that the base models don’t have the black bezel connecting the two screens. Might have missed it though.
