Being as it is a test mule I would not get my shorts in a twist just yet believing this is the definitive and guaranteed design.

was looking at some of the ext. pics, specifically the rear. Noticed the 3rd brake light is on the trunk lid, but not sure if this is the convertible though. Also was looking at the tail lamp housing area, might be the camo playing tricks, but looks like a raised “pod” of lights, for lack of a better word.And, while everyone is freaking out over the interior, betting most here glazed over the additional details we can now see in the headlights. See below. The headlights definitely have the "u-shaped" LED elements Jem mentioned - which are also extremely similar to the style several BMWs (including the M4 above) employ.

Long-hold to toggle between Android Auto and the built-in infotainment, if GM and Kia are of any suggestion.That will be probably like the Custom button in Audi. So you can set anything: For example Your driving mode or activate parking camera or Take me home (navigation), etc
I noticed that also, I prefer PRNDS. Looks like the paddles are brushed aluminumThe shifter says PRNDM
Chevy has done a great job with Corvette C8... I was expecting a similar attack with S650 but now I have no hope... It looks like that Mustang will be like another Ford car. I wish I had enough money to purchase the Mustang brand and design something that Mustang folks want...I hope it's just my bad imagination but there is nothing mustangy about this interior
So far I'm finding it hideous
I hope taking all the covers off it will change my mind
That's true. The base interior is of much higher quality. BMW took two steps up when they introduced the G20. The materials used and the quality in which they are assembled is almost perfect. Even a 330i with the ‘SensaTec Dashboard’ upgrade for 45k$ MSRP looks much nicer than anything Ford has to offer in its entire lineup. It would’ve been nice if Ford would’ve updated the Mustang at least to a decent interior level. They might do it, we’ve only seen prototypes thus far but I somewhat doubt it…There is an obvious material quality difference between a G80/G82 and everything Ford puts out.
The real competitive analog to the S550 Mustang GT and Mach 1, is a M440i.
I spent $100k for my GT500 CFTP and $100k for my G82 M4. The GT500 still feels like a $35,000 car on the inside.
That interior is a radical change (and for the worse imho). There is nothing small about it. It looks like a cross between a Camaro and a BMW. It's not attractive at all. Slapping a horse emblem on something does not make it a Mustang. I'll definitely hold judgment of the interior until it's in its production state, but it looks horrid right now. Again, imho.I'll be real, I don't understand half the people on this site. Many of them were saying things just like this. That the s550 was almost perfect, and Ford just needed to change a few small things with it. Now that they've made a design that's similar, with what will presumably be a few small improvements, everyone is upset because it's not a radical change.
The convertible has the full black camo on the roof, the FB has just the black n white tape.....

Nice catch! you are right, no Sport setting on the shifter...Hopefully this is a base EcoBoost version and the GT gets something better. There is no Sport setting on the shifter.
Besides, I know it’s a pre-production car and materials aren’t final but I think the overall interior impression is that it looks cheap. The materials used look cheap...
Or They have replaced it with "M" which will be like Sport mode?Nice catch! you are right, no Sport setting on the shifter...
