That's the same
H3 TRIPLE YELLOW
:(

A darker, richer yellow would look 100 times better. Like Lotus Saffron Yellow for example.

But let's not open up that can of worms again. We have enough disappointment for one day already.

I have another bad news! Since the front has more edges now, the panel miss alignments are going to stick out pretty bad. They should double their QC at the factory!
don't hold your breath on that. :tsk:

Blacking out that part below the lower grille does indeed help a little bit:

i think a bumper swap will help a ton
The black bottom part makes the facelift look way better

Still it looks like the whole front sits 4 inches lower than before, which makes it look odd

The refreshed front end looks more pissed off - headlights look like pissed off squinting. I think they should have reduced the size of the top grill and increased the size of the bottom grill for more balance look, and also take the fangs out of grills.
I guess a side by side does make the 18 look better. but, close ups look terrible. Maybe in person looks better. I will hold onto my 350.

:cheers:

The interior will be worth it

THAT is a great comparison - THANKS! I really like the old one better - the fog lights, the hood bulges all look more muscular. I suppose the part i hate the most is the lower opening that runs all the way across - I think that is making the rest of the front end look like a sagging 75 year old actress with 7 failed face lifts.

I like everything but the headlights and lower fog/running lights. The design of the front isn't that bad but shape of the headlights ruin it. I like what they did with the hood and appears they left a little more room under the hood. Hopefully you won't have to lower the engine to add a Kenne Bell supercharger or Cobra Jet intake manifold. Now for the rest of the info. Maybe we will get engine/trans info, options, and weight savings if any, on the 19th.

I think I'm gonna stop by the Hyundai dealership on my way home tonight and buy me a new daily driver so I can put my '16 Mustang in my garage and cherish it.

Too afraid to one day wreck it on my daily commute and not being able to buy a new one anymore.

It's unfortunate. It looks like the just took all the rounded edges away, and made them sharp angles. Which is counter-productive to the curves the rest of the body has. But then they added roundness to the headlights...I'm so confused. I'd love to see a better lit picture of what's going on in the rear.
