RACE RED S550 MUSTANG Thread

[TampaBear67]

As I stated before... the pictures are of a preproduction car.... look at the interior photo I posted... zoom in on the center stack and you can see that there are no toggle switches next to the start button rather push buttons... the mustang design is not even finalized yet so we are all gonna have to wait till this happens and we will finally see the final specs and body of the car.... don't you think Ford is actually using the build early to get an insight of what people are wanting? Sure seems that way

I'm Not Disputing the Fact that THIS Car is a BASE Model GT with the Performance Package, Seabee. Also it has Nothing to do with it being a Pre-Production Car. It Doesn't Have the Toggle Switches for the Same Reason it Doesn't have the Larger MFT Display and the Two Tone Black & Painted Diffuser/Rear Bumper, Because It Is a BASE GT. The Toggle Switches and MFT are part of the Premium Model. Base Model's Do Not Get the Selectable Driving Modes either. They only get a Button for Traction Control and one for selectable Steering Effort. As for the Diffuser, We have seen Multiple Cars, GT's, Eco-Boost's, and V-6's with this Fully Painted Rear Bumper/Diffuser and We've seen GT's and Eco-Boost's with the Two Tone Black & Painted Diffuser. My whole point was that I believe Ford had Originally planned to Paint the Entire Diffuser Portion of the BASE Model's Black to Match the Side Blades/Rockers, and Offer the Two Tone Black & Painted Diffuser on Premium GT and Eco-Boost Models, but for some Unknown Reason I think they Changed their Mind and Decided to just Skip the Step of Painting the Diffuser Black. Resulting in this Mis-Matched look where the Bumper/Diffuser doesn't continue the Black from the Splitter and Side Blades through the Rear of the Car.

Heh, just searched "2010 mustang gt rear diaper" and found you on an older forum, TampaBear. Like looking into the past.

LOL Technically You were. I know there was a Huge Debate and Much Hate for the "Diaper" back in 2010 and I actually was a Proponent of it back then. I think it helped Reduce the Visual Mass of the Rear End, Especially on Lighter Color Cars.

That spoiler looks different than the one's I have seen on the GTs. That a pre-production thing?

It is the same one.

You're right. I went back and looked at some old pics. I guess this angle just through me off initially. It didnt look like the spoiler that protrudes out from the truck lid at first but I see it now.

Here's a video I found on YouTube this morning. It's showing a Race Red and I thought it was interesting because of the interior shown in the video. I think it showcases the quality quite well.

It looks like one of the early Ford-released design videos of the fiberglass design study car, which means the interior is "mocked-up" as well.

Shows you how much perspective matters in photos. In that one the S550 actually looks significantly taller than that Shelby, yet we know the opposite to be true...
