I went to check if there was an online ordering system up, then I saw this.

Let me guess - those average looking rear tail lights, or is it the even stupider fake petrol filler emblem...

Both. I really hate that they gave us the faux cap. I really hate the clear tail lights. The clear tail lights are not mustang. I may as well stick with my 67

Don't forget to hate the huge mirrors.......and wait, we are yet to see the interior, let's see if they will do a proper RHD reversal, swapping the locations of cup holders and the park brake.
Another thing they should technically change is the orientation of the symbology on the 8" centre console touch screen display but we can only dream about having often used items being reversed and being placed toward the driver.

Yeah. But the mirrors I'm used to because most of our modern cars have big mirrors like that

Website also shows start/stop button on the left, with a disclaimer that it is an overseas model blah blah - but there is a round, blank panel below the drive mode selector. I wonder if they will shove the start/stop for RHD models into that spot??

If they did I would be even more pissed off. I have already made a complaint about lack off effort to get us as close as possible to the US model. The only real problem I have with Ford is that everything is built to american laws, they don't even consider the other countries that get the model of car.

I think that is for the subwoofer control on the shaker audio system.

I've noticed with the partial update, they still have not corrected the wheel specs, it's like they got some Office Junior to update, look at the wheel specs, yet they updated the photo to show the clear tail lights. Two steps forward, one step back.
Actually I like the Faux gas cap & couldn't care less about the mirrors. I'm still glad we are getting any kind of mustang. Great job Ford.com.au.

It's one of the 12V power sockets.

First we are not getting the sequential tail lights, now we are not getting the red tail lights. :doh:
Hmm... I guess clear tail lights are not too shabby looking on my yellow GT... (Just trying to console myself here....) :tsk:

Yes, we are lucky we get a mustang at all! But they should of at least tried to come up with a solution like mentioned at the start of the thread!

Wonder if Ford could do something similar to this with the tail lights, to incorporate the amber turn signal??? We could then get rid of the clear lens, and have the Mustang traditional tri-bar taillight.

Would look pretty cool on the front also!

Yes that would be an easy fix. They could easily do something like that below the tail lights.

Ford has to do the RHD property!! Otherwise it will be a biggest fuck up they will ever do!!! Plus is it really confirmed that we will have a clear Tail Light?? That's Sux!!!
