My EU brochure came in.

It has a slight different look than the US spec cars.
Like the round GT logo and the foglight.
I am happy to live on this side of the pond now.
The price for the 8 banger in euros is more than 50% than in the US.

Not surprised-Our cars always look slightly different when you go somewhere else in the world ;) Local regulations, etc.

I'm just curious about the euro-spec tail lights. From the pictures on the first day of Right Hand Drive production, it looks like the cars are getting white tail lights? I know that they're LED, so the lights can be white when the LED isn't turned on and turn red when the brakes are applied...this is just a function of the color of the plastic used on the brake light lenses.

Also, does Europe get the sequential turn signals? I'm pretty sure that EU regulations require separate lenses for the brake light and turn signal functions...and doesn't the rear turn signal have to be amber or orange?

A friend of mine has a brother who is from and lives in Denmark. He came to visit and I let him drive a GT and he was in love compared to his 1.5L diesel. He said the car we drove (GT 400A) would run north of $100kUSD in Denmark.

No sequential turn lights.
The law does not allow.
Below a short clip how the turn signals look like.

With all ipcc regulations emissions.
They calculate the co2 emission output per milli gram and with a 8 banger the
cost will go up.
And than the 20% tax will not help either.

Truth be told I think the Euro single-blink marker light is more attractive than the sequential turn signals Stateside. I'm not a big fan of the sequentials, as I think they look kitschy.

The sequentials are like one of my favorite features European lights seems "bleh" to me... To each their own, again

this video is from a pre-production prototype, it's different from real delivered euro-mustangs.
Tail lights are clear, turns red (all three bars) when parking lights or headlight are on (not with drl), no sequential turn and no red turning lights. Only the outer bar blinks amber (like in the video). Brake lights only the two inner bar per side.
Oh and we can't have led tribar drl in front.. some stupid eu regulations.. we have drl in fog lights :tsk:

I am Dutch and I have one. Only one of the few here though. And yes, paying 150% tax for a v8 .. sorry, but no.

I'm also surprised the sequential signals aren't a programamble choice. I like them but I can see how some might not.
