Best looking front end for an S550 in my opinion is the Steeda Q series with the Air Designs front fascia. In 2nd place is the Saleen Black Series. Just imo

Looks like dealers are going to have to settle for less ADM. Just a guess.

Back end needs a little more flare with that tire. Looks like a fat chick wearing lululemons.

What's funny is it doesn't have the derpy droopy front end of the 18 GT. Man Ford missed it with the GT's front end for 18. I can't wait til they change it.
"Derpy"- That adjective is the perfect way to describe the 18 front end. I'm so glad I have a 15 GT. I agree that Ford kept the existing style on the 350 and 500 for a reason.

I just noticed the big Cobra is still present in the grill. I am thrilled Ford did not downsize the Cobra.

The design language is based off of a face that was introduced in 2014. 4 years later when new design language is being used for the standard models, yes, it looks dated. This car looks like it should've come out a year and a half ago
We have a lot of that going on in this market segment. The Challenger and Camaro are based on design language that's nearly twice as old.

Precisely why I didn't buy a Camaro or Challenger lol

(well, not the only reason, but still)

Wider footprint and bolstered suspension potentially makes it MORE ENJOYABLE due to the power increase as well. It’s not about weight. It’s about balance.
What's this wider footprint you are talking about?? and how do you think they will balance it at well as the 350 R with a gob of weight ahead of the front tires, without costing more than the beancounters want to spend? Either way, we'll see:)

Ill buy the hood for heat extraction, and the rear wing, and keep my whippled 350. Will be interesting to see if any lighter oem parts will be released, or if they bumped up fuel system.

My source present at the dealer meeting in Vegas told me that the new GT500 will be between 780 to 790 HP and will offer the 10 speed automatic as an option. Ie) a manual is coming as a base
