[QUOTE="REX-RACER, post: 15513147, member: 14222"] I like the styling update though I'm not a huge fan of that orange/yellow color ( I recall someone referring to it as "nuclear banana" on the Focus ST ). I think the new styling ques will look best on dark colors like deep blue or gray w/ black splitter offsetting the color. That being said for me the HUGE story is all the mechanical upgrades! It pretty much sounds like Ford damn near re-engineered this car mid-cycle under the skin: - TWO new transmissions - Magnaride suspension w/ track pack - direct injection Coyote heads ( AT LAST! ) Given the 10 spd auto will have paddle shifters and word is it's capable of shifting as fast as a true dual-clutch trans I'm thinking it's a good bet it'll be an available option w/ the track pack given Ford seems to be serious about making track capable cars these days. Also the direct injection Coyote heads + port injection seems a huge deal! With everyone expecting 450 - 475 hp stock it seems like 500 n/a hp to the wheels, the magic 100hp/liter barrier, is achievable w/ just a modest bit of aftermarket assistance! I'll be curious to see how soon for makes this di/pi engine available as a crate package and/or how difficult it would be to swap the heads to a current Coyote engine? To me this new set up represents Coyote 2.0! [/QUOTE]
