At the Paris Motor Show is the new Ford Mustang officially for the first time to see in Europe .
It combines the performance and the processing of a high-performance sports car with classic design elements of this series . This includes not only the powerful extended profile includes the three -part tail lights and the legendary , but reinterpreted Shark front with the brand typically performed in trapezoidal shape grille .

And confirmed, 418 PS (410 hp) instead of 441 PS (435 hp)...
bummer!

plus the missing hoodvents and those awful taillights...I think I´ll cancel :(

There are a katrillion aftermarket & EOM options. I am sure they ship across the pond. Kind of like BMWs here in the States... we always get the neutered ones.

Same kind of thing. Vice-versa

So you dont have to switch the lights on, the taillights always shine as 3 red bars? Thats awesome news, so you can just see the clear taillights when the engine is off :clap2:

Then why didn't they just make them with red lenses in the first place :frusty:

And that will be the first car (as far as I'm aware) that will effectively come with rear DRLs.

Rear DRL is mandatory as of 1-1-2015. At least in NL it is.

Yeah exactly :headbonk:

I assume the taillights increase intensity when you brake.....I'd like to see how it works.

I didn't know that. To me, it actually makes perfect sense. Here in the UK, far too many people rely purely on their front DRLs and never seem to turn their lights on. I can only think they assume their rear lights come on with the DRLs on the front. It's scary how many cars I see at dusk or dawn with only front DRLs :(

I hope they make rear DRLs mandatory here too (Volvo had it right all those years ago)
