The 18-21 is better looking than 15-17

Grabber Blue is a great color for sure. It's just lacking the depth of Velocity Blue. I mean, I'm sure GB is very impressive to someone with a white car :giggle: . It's just got nothing on VB.
You spelled Lightning Blue wrong. 😋

I prefer my Oxford to any of the other colors. It really pops in the desert sun, especially with the design of the 18+ and all the gloss black trim. Also fun fact, Oxford White is actually a shade of grey, technically. A very light one, but still. Put something actually white next to it like snow and you'll notice it. But still, it's BRIGHT. I'm pretty sure I lost eyesight last summer after looking at it in the sun after I freshly washed and waxed it.

I do really like Velocity Blue, my friend just got one in that color. But it's too dark for me, personally. It actually looks better to me at night than it does during the day.

Oh, and as for the silly "my front end is best end", obviously the 18+ is better. The catfish comparison doesn't work, because the grille is too high up. But I applaud people for trying. As a side note, both designs have awful foglight pocket designs. The earlier cars looks way too busy and forced, while the later ones are needlessly angular and empty.

I think the '18s are better looking now - I did not, when the refresh first appeared. And IIRC I've had a similar change of heart on quite a few styling changes going back at least to the refreshes on the S197s.

Topic is totally subjective, but I'll throw my choice in.
2017.
And once tuned and performance updated, the performance would be nil.
Plus I love the look of my Car, but most of us do.
This is a no win topic.

"Plus I love the look of my Car, but most of us do".

That should have read, Most of us like the looks of their own cars, as most of us do.

Well, it's also a topic where no one has to lose. :wink:

Love Grabber Blue and the Roush fascia, BTW. If there's a reason I might prefer the 2015-2017, it's only because there's still more that can be done aftermarket with it along those lines.

What don't I like about the looks of the '18+? Maybe the shape of the lower grille and fog light cut-outs. I find myself wondering if it would be feasible to swap for a Mach-1 fascia. I have a Performance Pack 1; as long as the upper grille area is compatible (I like my grille) I'd guess that the only complication might be the front splitter?

You're damn right it is. So much it got me to buy another Mustang. My last one was an '03 Cobra and I thought I'd never again own another Mustang.
