I don't really agree with their color substitutions. I think it would have been better off if Orange Fury replaced Triple Yellow. Kona Blue replaced Lightning Blue (Grabber continues on) and we see Stealth Gray instead of Avalanche... Kinda iffy about Lead Foot at the moment.

100% disagree about Kona Blue replacing Lightning Blue. It's the best Ford blue they've offered in years. I had a Kona Blue 2010 GT500 and while it's a nice color is a very dark blue.

Lead Foot Grey and Magnetic Grey are effectively the flat and metallic versions of the same color.

It would have been nice if Ford offered the "wilder" colors like Grabber Blue, Comp Orange, etc. as options you paid a little extra for.

I like to disassemble things.
The mandatory Electronics Package on the R....no more delete due to the rear camera requirement?

I was waiting to hear that myself. Looks like the base R option is out, altho they will produce them until the new reg hits in April. If they wait to build MY18 Rs until after the hiatus, there will be very few base Rs built. I have bought 2 base Rs, as I thought they are the "most track-worthy" version of the most track worthy Mustang ever built. :D:cheers:

As was expected, no stripes on an Orange Fury R.

Dropped a line to my dealer about possibility of a pre-April '18 base R in Orange Fury. We'll see.

He bought one last year and sold it, then bought another.

I brought it up last year that with the rear camera addtion, maybe they wouldnt build base cars anymore. I was shunned... looks like i was right.
Whoever may want a base, maybe you can get one late feb, and march of 2018 builds.
Nice to see the blue stripe options on black and magnetic.
