Yep the masses already know it looks much less aggressive.

The 18 does get at least one thing right - it brings the top of the fog openings much closer to the headlamp. The Extremely low top of the fogs on the 15 always bothered me and gives this slab space that contributes to a weak presence. At least they're attempting to move it forward. And the China pics look tremendous. Hope we get those sweet parking lights in the US.

I think the 4.6 had the best note. But if trade sound for power any day.
I agree with this. The old mod motors just had a bit deeper and more distinct sound to my ear. The coyote has a bit more rasp to it. I hate to say but it sounds a bit more like a Chevy or an old 302 with glass packs. Now the Voodoo on the other hand is probably the best sounding V8 in recent memory.

The coyote has always had an odd note. Even with resonators deleted or aftermarket. I think the 4.6 had the best note. But if trade sound for power any day.
Agreed, 4.6 sounded AWESOME, at least for my preferences

Truth. 4V 4.6 with borla stingers is basically jesus.
You guys could basically get that by changing the headers and firing order. The BBK shorties for the Coyote would be closer in design to the old engine's (not tri y).

Here I am just hoping that the rear valance will fit on the 15-17 Premiums like the GT350 does.

I know a guy in Dearborn that's been spotting the 2018s on the road and kindly sending me pictures of them. Orange Fury:
Looks like a cream-sickle. :D

Took the lightning blue picture and overlayed the side view with a 2015 picture from the internet, overall it does not look like the hood is that much lower. Granted the angle of the picture is slightly off, but it is not dramatic. Middle picture is the 2018 at 50% opacity overlayed onto the 2015 picture, best that I could line them up.
