That's not true. Most cars have completely red glasses on the rear lights. You only see the yellow orange turn signal when it's on. The only thing that must have clear glasses is the White light when driving in reverse, but that's in the bumper on the Mustang. New Peugeots even have red vertical tribars as taillights...
You're right! Those tail lights look really expensive though! So while it can be done, maybe they just figured it was too hard?

They could just use red glasses, the orange turn Signal is bright enough to shine in orange through red glasses. This is a custom mod on red taillights that shows that the orange is clearly visible:

Perfect, looks brilliant. Do you have a link to that mod?

EuroNCAP just re-assessed the 2018 Mustang, and got one more star. yeah :-/

The interesting bit is that the video shows the 2018 Euro spec Mustang (from time stamp 2:19 onwards). First time I saw that one on line:

First prospects for european models will be released in September.
Good info, thanks Ace!

What do you mean by "prospects" though? Do you mean confirmed specs? Or orders being accepted for 18s?

:)

Not a Bullitt
On another note this forum needs a chat section.
And a separate sub forum for the refreshed 2018 so you current owners can stop getting sick over the looks.

There are sub sections for convertibles and special editions, why not for the refresh? :shrug:

I meant the printed brochures, they will be at the dealers in September. Don't know if they will include specs, but I assume that.

Yes, this should also include the UK RHD. Only on the active exhaust my source said it will be available in germany, but I didn't ask further if that means whole europe. But I'm pretty sure it means the whole EU models gets it.

Any information or guesses on the digital dash for euro and export models?

There was an earlier video that mentioned all export variants will have the digital dash as standard
