The pics in that brochure look just like the original pics. Even the locations are the same.

They are pretty crap too. Very bad photoshop methinks.
You are spot on there croyde....the yellow car with the rear spoiler and the red one at the end are "parked" in exactly the same position to the millimetre....just a photoshop colour change.....in one of the other shots they forgot to photoshop in the larger mirrors.....that probably explains the variation in rear panel badging as well.
Overall, the brochure doesn't provide much new information apart from the pics having the steering wheel on the correct side and a spec sheet.
As to the final exterior specs, it is looking like the early rhd one spotted in the States and surfacing in India may be it.
For me that is a tad annoying as it has the small front splitter and to convert it to the larger one will be expensive, the parts will be a few hundred for the splitter and undertray and s@@t loads for the freight for shipping such large but lightweight parts to Oz

Well at least Sat Nav has been confirmed as 'S' in this brochure.

I think the only thing that's still unclear is if Oz models get the larger radiator and oil cooler the USA PP gets. I think the EUR cars also get these standard.

I honestly hope that the CO GT spotted in India and the states was wearing the wrong splitter, I think there'll be a few slightly pissed off people it it ends up being true.

The images on Ford UKs page shows the larger splitter on the GT over the Ecoboost, so hopefully if they get that spec we will too.

no point in even worrying about it!

The upper grills in the two red mustangs in the 1st 2 photos are totally different from each other so even Ford OZ obviously can't get its marketing material correct

If the 1st ones turn up in November just treat it like Halloween and it can be "trick or treat"

Pics from a facebook page of Flat Rock, 2 yellow, one v8, both RHD, looks like the same front splitters to me. I wonder where these two are destined for?

Geez... 4stanger....now I have to start looking for cheap parts and freight again....surely there cant be any reason for not fitting them with the larger splitter...the small one and the larger and their respective undertrays are virtually the same price new..

Re the facebook pics,
https://www.facebook.com/groups/SHOWUSYOURMUSTANG.net/permalink/1032295736782778/
The bloke that took these photos, labelled the top one (ecoboost going by grille and no badge) as an Australian GT, and the other one as a South African GT.
Read into that as much as you want to speculate on. there is paperwork attached to these vehicles, but I don't know what info they would hold.

Ford Australia' recent brochure's for most of their cars been very average and full of Photoshop photos. Two years ago when we were looking at the Fird Kuga, the brochure we got was full of photoshopped photos taken in the UK, USA and Europe. Ford Australia are so bad, that 2 years later the current Kuga brochure has the sane photos, just photoshopped with different colours on the cars.

Well that sucks then doesn't it. :mad: :frusty:

Looks like I've gotta price up a proper GT PP front splitter like they SHOULD come with.

I wonder what the reasoning is behind this.

They probably would come up with some bullshit like that.

It's irritating because the European GTs have the PP splitter.

Difficult to see from the photos provided, but you can see if you fiddle with the brightness - the GT has the same (smaller) splitter as the Ecoboost rather than the more squared off and larger part fitted to the other GT PPs.
