Those headlights are so unflattering in those pictures.

I do like the carbon package though, that sounds cool.

And now the only visual difference between the Ecoboost and GT Mustang is only the grill and the 5.0 badge. Both get the same rear wing
Doesn't the GT get the quad exhaust?

Pre-production photo as well. I agree with Jons5.0 as the picture does "appear" that the back offset is spot on, unlike the typical Ford fitment. It's one of the things that I find annoying. They could look so much better being pushed out a bit.

On another note, notice the GT350 missing from this order guide companion.
The GT350 is unchanged for 18, so no new order guide.

Probably only with the "noiseomatic" option.;)
All GTs get the quad exhaust. The "noiseomatic" is an extra option. I don't know if there will be any indicator externally that it has it like the Camaro does. (They only have quad tip exhaust on the active exhaust cars). My source is this interview by TFL car with Carl Widmann the chief program engineer of the 2018. It is an older interview but still pretty good. He mentions the quad tips around 10:20.

They will probably release the information the minute I drive off the dealers lot with my 2017. :mad: :( :tsk:
I'm sure you will love your 2017 !! however I am curious asa to why you wouldn't wait a few more weeks until all the 2018 details came out? I'm guessing you got one heck of a deal !! :)

I wonder if that trim is "real" carbon fiber.....looks good !

No mention about the 19" optional lightweight aluminum forged wheels for PP?

No mention of the "midnight blue" seat stitching option? hmmmmm :shrug:

They don't even use real leather for the seats, don't expect real carbon fiber :D

A lot of cars use synthetic leather these days even luxury brands. Which has a few different reasons.

Doubt any car really uses real CF either for their interior trim, most likely just a "vinyl" one layer CF over some plastic backing. I mean the E90 BMW M3 had stitching in it's CF trim... doesn't make much sense if it were 100% CF.
