Kona Blue 2018 GT350 Pre-Production Photos

Sent by a mysterious friend.

Thoughts?

I'd have to see it next to a DIB car... by itself it doesn't appear to be much different.

Front end doesn't look quite right. Might be the angle. I dunno

Redesign for 2018, but I agree looks off

Is this hood different? I agree that the angle is weird, but the center of the hood looks raised a bit.....

The 2018's are going to look the same as the 2017's; only difference is colors.

Hood and front end is the same as all of them, just an odd angle.

doesnt do it for me, like grabber blue much better

The first front end photo looks good. The second front end photo looks JACKED UP! I'm happy to hear it's the angle. I do like the Kona Blue paint.

The 2018 GT350 cars are the same design as the previous years.
It looks odd because the splitter is not assembled yet. The cars get delivered without them so it doesn't scrap getting onto and off the delivery truck.

Is that piece on the hood some kind of camo to conceal a big blower sticking through the hood? GT500 test mule?

That's the stock GT350 hood Jimmy. For both the GT350 and GT350R cars.

Then why the camo on it?
And is the hood vent on there?
Old eyes.
Edit, ok I see the vent but in that first pick it looks like there is a plastic bag or something on there

No camo.
Yes, there is a hood vent on it.

Hood looks different in the first pick

Here is what it looks like from the top view.
(This isn't stock. It's carbon fiber.)

Ahhhh did not know they're keeping the shelbys the same. Apologies everyone

Kona blue looks good only in these years in my opinion haha its probably because i own one

Like any color, you have to stance and set the car up.

A stock gt350 has very clean stance, but nothing will look as good if you compare a lowered car vs a stock ride height.

Needs to be an R with some silver stripes. Then it would look great next to my Kona/silver GT500!

Kona has more metallic flake in it than DIB. Other than that, they're basically the same color. The only thing I don't like about my Kona is that it looks purple in some angles and lighting conditions.
