Is that a self-destruction button on top of the dash ?

Start or shuttoff button

Start or shuttoff button

I think that was his attempt to be funny. . .I'm sure of it

 

[moubayed]

Dang it, didn't catch that one after a days work :tsk:

I don't think there's anything special to see here. Just a regular 2018 Mustang. The camo is rarely ever removed once it's added, even after the car is revealed to the public.

Well, it is the first RHD one we've seen......and the first we've seen without the heavy camo front n rear.

Surprised the front turn signals are completely taped over though......surely even prototypes need to show these for safety? :shrug:

LOL but I do curious about what that button does.

So it basically functions like the start button on our car? Why do they make it looks like it will detonate something when hit?

Don't blame Ford for the clear tail lights & bigger wing mirrors :shrug:

Bullshit EU legislation dictates that the US mirrors are too small, and amber indicators are mandatory (not for every EU country, but you get the idea)... So if we'd get red taillights they would be forced to add a separate amber indicator :/ :frusty:

I'd like to see how much of a disaster the EU hood is...

 

[Twin Turbo]

Yes, amber indicators are required.......but there are MUCH better options than giving us all clear tails.

Just to rub salt into the wounds, Peugeot actually have a form of triple red tails :frusty:

No they don't. I have red tail lights that flash amber. Sequentially even.

 

[Skully]

For EU legal bullshit that doesn't count. Because the lens is not allowed to be red. Only clear or amber.

Btw, yours are nice looking

Lol I have to laugh at the people who are getting upset, when I ordered the car I was promised the US car. That didn't happen and the disappointment nearly lead to me selling the car.

I expect nothing from Ford they will cut corners where ever possible. I know that some people were successfully able to litigate against them so it wasn't all bad.

The truth is no one in the UK / AU market should be speculating until the car has landed because they won't tell us and we don't know what the final product will be.

Good thing it's camouflaged.

Sounds like the U.K Government telling you what you can and can't have like the Louvers in hood thing i never understood why the U.K couldn't' have it damn laws

The indicator has to light up in amber. but the glass can of course be red. Every car has red glass but flashes up amber

Example:

The thing is that the export model is all the same for EU, australia, China, Japan, NZ, etc. I think that Ford just went the cheap way: If EU law wants to cut something, they cut it for everyone. If NZ law wants to cut something, they cut it for everyone.
So in the end the export model meets worst of autombile laws around the world.
