Yeah I agree, don't like the front end changes, mostly the lower grill area and removal of the foglights (wonder what that means for our DRLs? Maybe integrated into the blinker/parker unit now?). It just doesn't match the upper grille anymore. Ford AU will be happy I guess as they won't need to pick an uglier lower grille for us this time.

I can see an aftermarket company out now with the drawing pencils, sketching up a new front end.

I hope they come up with something nice to replace the factory front end, or i'll be picking up a 2016/17 model, once i'm back from my travels

Any of you gents know when the last order date would be for RHD MY17's? Really hoping there is still a chance to get 17's!
Very little chance I'd say. Most deliveries are still taking a year so if the change over happens in June as expected, to order now you'd be hoping to pick up a cancelled order IMO. I ordered in Oct and am worried. If I miss a MY17 build I think I'll cancel the order. Missing the colour I want and having that new front end, I know it's something that would always nag me. I'd be happier picking up a used unit.

EDIT: just realised you're in the UK. Things might be different over there.

according to caradvice (not sure how legit they are ) 2018MY will only reach our shores first half 2018 as the americanos will only have it 3rd quarter this year. so i take that as we probably get the 2017MY.

I really like the 2018 now that I have seen all the pics in the thread especially in Magnetic. I am actually asking to have my car moved to a MY18. The addition of direct injection, the LCD dash, bi modal exhaust and probably the fix for most of the niggily issues with the MY17 has me sold. I also really like the new design. I think in the flesh it is going to look even better.

Slow down mate.. I wouldn't go and ask for that before the local details have been announced. There is a high likelihood that half those things don't come to Australia given that most are options in the US.

I have no choice my car despite only being ordered in December is going into production in a couple of weeks so I had to make a decision.
