Well you know you'll have to post it with good crisp pics for people to see. lol

I'm trying to figure out if this will make the last few CSs more or less sought after... I have a feeling that "mesh" will read "cheap" whereas the carbon fiber like designs don't.
Letā€™s go with ā€œuniqueā€instead of ā€œcheapā€šŸ˜†. Ford is also gifting us less tech. We will not have the in car LTE modem. I personally would not use it so Iā€™m good with the few ounces of weight loss!

The modem stays. Only the hotspot feature is eliminated.

"Meanwhile, no other FordPass Connect feature is impacted by this deletion. Those features currently include the ability to remotely start, lock, and unlock a vehicle, schedule specific times for the vehicle to remote start, locate a parked vehicle, and check the vehicleā€™s status."

So they have label it on all 4 sides now, lol
I like the subtleness of the 16-17s better...

I got the same dark texture panel dash trim on my 2019,. However I have the Red stitching in everything. Is it one of the upgrade packages? I didn't know you could get California special without red stiching?

The California Special package get the red stitching on the seat & doors. The 401a package get you the red stitching on the dash and console.

I have the analog 400A dash....the red stitching on the dash comes with the digital 401A. Found that out after I placed my order and didn't want to delay things so did not upgrade to the 401A. I like the analog gauge look better. Gives me that old school look.

Agreed! šŸ‘ Plus the black painted five spoke rims I think look better than the new gray ones. Just wish the 16/17 had active exhausts and factory quad tips.

I saw a local 16-17 gt/cs with the ford performance gt350 cat back and diffuser kit and it looked good.

I didn't like mine, buy I didn't toss either, they are neatly stacked in the corner of the garage on all the circle cardbords that came with my Foose 20" /BFGs.
900 miles on them, might sell someday or just keep.
