S-197 Retro question/opinions

Yeah ! I wish they'd adopt me too lol. Anyhow if your so torn about trading in your 05 ? That's pretty much your conscience telling you not to do it, as your S197 fits both your classic and modern desires just fine

The Front fascia of the 13-14 they way the grill pushes out. Anyone think it kinda reminds them of a 68 Shelby nose ?

My thoughts exactly as well



Yes, I do and it looks great on the 13-14.. However according to Ford, they also claim they took inspiration from the 68 Shelby nose for the current S550 as well, but I don't like the design on the current 15-18 S550 models at all..

No offense to the S550 owners, but IMHO the front fascia looks more like a wide mouth bass with bug eyed headlights..
