They look like they're tinted like the surrounding plastic when not lit.

Ok, well it may have just revealed that it will be in the Shelby.

That rear shot of the tailight almost looks like a Sonic Blue...

nvm. Found it. I think it's going to be a bit lighter than that. Looks like Vista Blue to me.
Yeah I never understood True Blue on 01 Bullitt.

Look at the font used on the gauges. They are standard GT units, not Boss, not Shelby. They may even be the base 300A gauges, considering they are black face, not white, and appear to not have MyColor.

On the taillights, I'm not sure if I'm sold. I liked them at first, but now they kinda remind me of the Chevy Sonic lights, in that they don't have a whole lens covering all of the elements of the lights...

But I'm missing it on those headlights. I don't like those gray bars and I see as much chrome as in the 2012s.

I agree. I love the look of the 2012 HID's. I don't see altezza/rice looks on the HID's on the 12 or 13. I do not like, however, those horizontal strips on the 13's. I much prefer the 12

I think he's right though. Will be clear when not lit.

Wow... NOBODY likes the new headlights. I dont see how ford could made them any better than that. Im just gonna leave it be. Really though im hoping no one likes this new stang in general. Wouldnt mind being the only one upstate cruising in one of these beasts.

I like the new headlights. A lot better than the current HIDs. I always thought the HIDs worked a lot better with the GT500 nose anyways, and like I've said before, it is Ford's way of waning you retro lovers off of the retro styling. The next gen will have a more modern look, and will probably lose the round headlight look....

I like it, what stands out to me are the GT 500 inspired front end and the pointless little kink in the tail lights is gone. No complaints here, but I think I'm still waiting for the next gen.

I like them. But I don't love them..............yet. They are nicer than the current HIDs (I prefer the darker background), they're just not quite as different as I may have expected.

I'm LOVING what I see of the tail lights so far, though.

And the GT500-inspired nose is OK by me.

it should be interesting to see when the aftermarket versions of these taillights come out for the 2010-2012s (Raxiom)

True, because if they already look like Pep Boys from the factory, maybe Pep Boys will make a better looking one by accident.
