But honestly I'm pretty disappointed. In the end the Pre-Facelift just looks way better to me, so I will definitely not buy the facelift. The facelift lost a lot of the muscle car look I loved on the Mustang through the new flat hood. So I will look into buying an EU Camaro or Pre-Facelift Mustang next year. :shrug:
Thanks for your report Ace, it's a familiar feeling. You wanna like the car so badly but it just isn't what it should be.

Lucky for me Ford not only messed up the front end but also the CO2 values so even if I were interested in trading up the potential tax raise of 15.000 euro on the 2018 model in the Netherlands will very efficiently kill off my last bit of interest.

Yeah, the car is great and I can understand if people trade in their 2015 for all the new stuff. But for me, the facelift really grew on me ofter the last half year and I still think overall it's a great and aggressive looking car. But somehow it just lacks the "Must have" feeling that should come up when you see your next car it in person.

Like I saw and test drove the new VW Polo at IAA and I'm pretty sure it will be my next daily driver besides whatever US car I choose. Really cool small car for german cities :D

Nice to see they're still against tire rotations. Pricey tires to tear up and not be able to rotate!

Those PP2 wheels and that lip spoiler would look incredible on an orange fury, looks really good!

If you have the money to go through those kind of tires, more power to you.

It's a little over $400 a tire for 295's. Almost $500 for 305's. Those cost as much as my wheels for a set... lol.

It's not just rotation.

A car engineered to handle and brake very well, with the majority of it's weight on the front wheels..........and the front wheels are narrower?

C'mon Ford, stop with the aesthetic choices to engineering issues. And search "under-steer" on Youtube.
