Deanh Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 Tux black with all black interior....VERY handsome car, and my faults are quibbles. Not sold on the pseudo dash look...but passable. 100% leather seats would be preferable, not sure i like the look of the suede inserts and question durability. Styling....nice, but STILL think they need to ease up on the chrome, touch too much, and I prefer the driving light ( led bar, lower front valance sides ) of the Limited, for some reason the swatched the SHO version with chrome again. Rear end looks AWESOME, talk about a distinctive rear end...only other quibble is a contour line that runs from the top hood down the top edge of the sides and then takes a seemingly un-necessary downturn at the rear end....the downturn seems un-necessary alltogether. But HEY, I'm picky and if thats the best I can come up being a grouch i give a solid thumbs up....oh, and Black is kinda bland....go for the Red..........

NickF1011 Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 I wouldn't worry too much about the Alcantara pseudo-suede inserts. Ford has been using them for years in other vehicles and I haven't seen any major complaints about their durability. Odd about the lower valence lights though. Hmmm.

Deanh Posted July 7, 2009 Author Share Posted July 7, 2009 Did ya sit in it? If so tell me your thoughts seats are extremely comfortable...and whadda ya know...cars Atlantic green not black ( sun came out ) but I stand firm on the fact the car needs some more visually exciting color....rear seat headroom may be an issue for people of 6 ft 2 and up....also, the alum on the dash seems out of place...i think a continuation of the glossblack trim in the door panels would have been more sucessful ( if a little bland but classier....)

I thought the same thing about the seats---but I sat in a pre-production SHO at an intro event at my dealer about a month ago and I really liked them. It wasn't what I was expecting. Re: the lower valence light. I could SWEAR the unit the Ford trainer brought to the dealer had lights in that area. I mean it was pre-production, but I'd be surprised that they would change something like that out while they are that close to producing actual retail units. Either that or I completely misinterpreted what I saw---or have forgotten. I thought those LEDs were a nice touch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deanh Posted July 7, 2009 Author Share Posted July 7, 2009 Nice panel fit on the rear view. all things considered...and i'm guessing this is a mule that has had tha CRAP kicked out of it, the car seems impressively bolted together...although the lock button left rear door is missing....LOL!
