I hate to say it, but I'm not feeling it. The original S550 had a cohesive vision of design language. This refresh seems like they just took those great lines, added a few kinks to the headlights, and tail lights just for the sake of being different. I don't even know where to start regarding the lower front fascia. The only thing that intrigues me are new gills, and the light bars above where the fogs used to be. My only hope is it that the car looks better in person, as they often do.

Not sure if this has been caught because of the hideous front end but that car in the video has a quad exhaust, it almost gets lost in the black rear diffuser

I'm not a fan of the front end either. My guess is the 2020 design is already laid out and it's going to be angular like the Camaro and this is the midstep to get to that angular body. The 2020 will probably have squarish front and components and harder body creases similar to the Camaro.
S650, doesn't exit yet.

Neither does the new bronco, calm your tits.

The new car will be quite a bit better. 10 speed auto. A decent HP bump from the direct injection. Unfortunately, it wont be enough to make me want to trade.
Even if it comes with mind blowing hp and torque it is still fugly! There is no way to save this car! Now i m really afraid to even imagine the s650 after this disaster! Whoever hated the looks of the new camaro, this is a slap on the face!

Wtf? Head lights are horrible! Well at least I'm not going to have to worry about trading mine in any time soon.

you know you don't have to have the ACC on if you don't want to use it
I know you can turn it off. What I am saying is it's still part of the electronics that I would think can go haywire like anything else. I'd just assume not have it at all, then it's a non issue. In the end I don't want my car to be able to actuate the brakes without my input. This happens at the wrong time it can be bad. Personally I trust my driving skills more than I do automated systems that are still relatively new in the market.

Orange fury? Where? I see yellow. Not impressed. Looks like a copy from a camero on the front. Thing I liked about the 15 was that it was unique in its looks. Now it looks like a camero wannabe.
The rear might be a nice refresh but not too clear just yet. Aftermarket front bumpers might b the rage for this one....

It's weird, the car looks yellow, not orange, and the tires look green, not black. Id somebody steal the real Ford video and change the color balance to try and get around copyright infringements lawsuits?

I really want to see it in person. So many of the pictures are from a low angle. Never how you would see the car.

Even if it doesn't grow on me is a fascia away from being fine. I really just want to see what the specs are.

Seeing Michelin is a good sign.
