After seeing the photos of the '18MY cars at Think Ford in Guildford, I decided I needed to take a trip and see them for myself.

I had very high expectations as I've like the '18 since it was launched, but I'd yet to see on in the metal.

I wasn't disappoint. Not. One. Bit. They really do look superb and it'd have to be Orange Fury for me. Today was, obviously, dull and overcast, and in this light, it looks very much like Grabber Orange. And that's a very good thing. I'm sure when it pops in the sunlight, it'll be even more impressive.

Anyway, onto the photos...

Not forgetting the already gorgeous '17s :) (including our very own Kristian87's GT, awaiting rectification after its soggy carpet syndrome :( )

Front ends still not a patch on the old style but I’m sure it’ll grow on me, anyone in the York area wanting to see an 18 Stang then there’s 2 GT’s at my place of work Stoneacre Ford Store in York, one silver and one yellow.

Those silver wheels on the orange fury GT are bloody awful!

Yeah not a fan of those silver wheels on the orange fury. The black wheels definitely look the best.

Love the darker blue (the other one to grabber) on the 18 in the photos but like grabber blue on '15.

Im looking forward to seeing the '18 (especially the front) in the flesh when im in the states next week!

Wait till you hear the 18 GT in loud mode, worth the price increase for that alone!

I would go with black wheels with Orange Fury (Project 6GRs or similar) but I was surprised how much I liked the silver wheels!

Yeah, pity I couldn't get to hear the new exhaust though :(

How much louder is it than the 15? What mode on the 18 is equivalent to the 15? I do wish they had made the 15 louder

A LOT louder, the loudest mode on the 15 is literally nothing compared to the 18! How it should have been from the start.
