...they literally did the same PR about "brand new, cutting edge, state of the art, blah!!!!!!!" wind tunnel crap with the S550 a decade ago lol.
I'm not digging up the videos or articles, but trust me lol. Just google search it; it's all over the net/youtube still the exact same way that this...
...nice to have, but how can you have that situation and not do a proper walkaround/multiple angles/etc instead of the exact same shot(s) that we always get lol.
It's always the off-angle front quarter view...rear off-angle and not centered, no side comparison, etc lol. I honestly feel like so...
Yeah...car show lighting doesn't exactly help here, but Blue Ember looks like one of the colors that could play nicely with the mountain of ugly plastic on these cars.
Like I said...it was a cheesy Ford buzzword that was beaten into the ground a million times during pressers, design videos, etc. All the designers, PR people, execs, etc kept saying it and making a big deal as if it was actually a thing lol. It was hilariously stupid and their way of trying to...
I know, I know, I know...but it's like walking into Starbucks and ordering a "Venti Carmel Mochiato" lol. No man can speak that way without sounding like a total doof. It's a freaking window lol.
But you're likely right, however somebody needs to post the S650 rear glass "easter egg"...here we...
...why are we using a real picture with two crappy renders for comparison lol?
Also...for the love of GOD, nobody ever call that thing "DLO" or "DayLight Opening". It's a freakin' rear quarter window lol. That was one of Ford's hilariously overplayed marketing gimmics and overused terms from...
I basically agree...it awkwardly ditches enough of the S550 that's all over the real car and ummm, makes it look just that much more original and sort of like what they probably should have done lol. I honestly like this a lot and think it's just that much further along than the actual S650...
exactly lol...the Gen 6 Camaro is an engineering and performance champ in every way for what it is and unfortunately didn't get the sales backing over price hike and lack of distinguishing looks apart from the prior model for the average public. The car itself is just an amazing performer and...
Nah...the S550/S650 share weight and dimensions down to the milimeter where the Gen 6 Camaro was a lighter/smaller brand new platform with zero in common at all with the Gen 5. Chevy just screwed up in designing it to literally look like the Gen 5 and couldn't leave the whole Bumblebee thing...
Yup...Ford can get my business easily if they make a not so outrageously priced or overly designed(see Dark Horse) S650 special edition of some kind. I'm hoping for a knockout GT350/Mach 1/etc or even just another appearance package that sort of addresses some of what I don't care for. The...
Yup...I just like something there for the sake of filling space. Even decorative lighting; anything would be better than a big ol' fake opening with all that plastic just there. I said 69 earlier, but I think it's the 70 that I was thinking of...do something with that big ol' lower intake like...
It's essentially this below...but yeah, I just hate those big open random lower ducts on the S650 without any foglights or ANYTHING useful being there. It just sort of take something maybe sort of good and cheapens it out. I sort of want to see what the GT looks like if some 69 style...
Also have to keep in mind that the two photos are not 100% one to one either and are at different angles/heights of photography...going to be even more similar if/when viewed perfectly in person lol.
That's what I'm saying lol. You can fanboy it up all you want, but the S650 is painfully obvious as a rework of the original S550 design. It's hilarious how some people keep tryiblng to make this thing out to be more than what it is...it literally reuses inside and outside design elements and...
