I like the color (remember seeing spy shots of it), but the white wheels are horrible and the white grille inserts look tacked on/out of place.


The wheels and grill are a throwback just like the Bronco heritage models.  That’s what makes it a heritage version.

Except the wheels don't resemble any 79-93 Fox 5.0 body wheels (TRX, phone dial, turbine, 5-star pony, or Cobra fan blades), but I still dig it.

I hate the wheels, but I like the rest.  It seems like they were trying to play off the turbine wheels, but it's not done very well and the all-white makes it worse.  I don't mind the white badging, but I think the nostrils on the grille would have been better in the teal color.

I really hope we see more color like this across the line at Ford.  I was at a Ford dealership earlier today, and it was literally a sea of white, black, and gray - 90% of the vehicles on the lot were one of those three colors.

The wheels are horrendous. White paint doesn’t show the depth that other color wheels do. They end up looking like cheap plastic in my opinion. Surprised they went with that nostril design. Seems like that would have been saved for rtr edition. I don’t mind the white trim, but I’m not sure it fits well on this vehicle.

I understand that.  That doesn't mean it looks good.....

 

 

I have the same opinion of the Stroppe edition Bronco - I understand what they were going for, and the inspiration, but it still looks like several mis-matched panels (specifically tailgate/hood).

It's...eh...well,  like the color, but the wheels are a swing and a miss. If they're going to try and manipulate us Gen-Xers, they should've gone for the darker green/cream interior versions of the early 90s.
