Looks like a 401A package on a base model with PP. Just a preproduction model or a new option?

Did the 2018 get a seat cooling fix? Or were to designers too busy with the dash and front end?

Looks like the orange fury one might be the "new base trim"...

Black pedals, no chrome surround on speakers, cloth seats. BUT, touch screen and toggle switches. Did they do away with the center stack found in current base cars?

I really don't like the gloss black grill that is flush with the bumper. That thing is gonna ding and show every single one over time where matte wouldn't. Plus I think it would look better like the 15-17 where it isn't flush with the bumper. I really like the Orange fury color though, and it would make sense for the base to get the touchscreen since the camaro has one.

It would not be inconceivable for Ford to retire that ridiculous keypad. I don't think you can option down a screen that small on a Hyundai Elantra.

That's the PPPPP model (Premium Performance Package with PETA Package). PETA Package is basically just cow-less seats.

S550 GT = common hood shake
GT350 = less hood shake

Brainwave, make the S550 hood like the GT350, ie a bit lowered by 3/4 inch.
Problem solved.

And, to my European eyes, it looks less like a cartoon character than it did.

Finally a look at the new analog gauges! Looks basically the same other than the higher redline. Very interesting to see a car with cloth seats and a screen. If they made Sync3 standard it would be a really smart move and be the largest standard screen out of the 3 muscle cars. Really hoping the official order guide comes soon.

Notice how the 'blackout' trim car does not have a gloss black grille like the rest (it's also the only EB). Also, the black pony doesn't work well on these, the grille is just too wide. Has to have something visible in it otherwise it looks like a massive gaping hole.

Yeah they seem to be the same, redline looks like 7400-7500. Pretty crazy coming from the factory.

Im hoping theres a pp available much like the 15-17. I really dont want their dual mode exhaust(video sounded like a tin can) and I dont need mag ride. That will leave me more money to buy aftermarket exhaust, springs, etc.

A little off topic.....but I wish this color was available on the '18 (perhaps '19 or '20?)....something between Ingot Silver and Magentic.
