The 2018 Ford Mustang Facelift Has Been Leaked And Not Everyone's Impressed

A b-roll video featuring the facelifted Mustang has surfaced online, but judging by the initial reaction, not everyone likes the changes

Fancy an early look at the incoming Mustang facelift? You’re in luck, as the good folks over at Mustang6g.com have managed to get hold of a b-roll video featuring the refreshed sixth-gen pony in GT Performance Pack-spec.

The most prominent changes are at the front, where the Mustang has gained a new pair of headlights, plus a reshaped lower section with a new light and grille arrangement.

The rear hasn’t received quite as much attention, but the light clusters are new, and that wing certainly wasn’t there before. We’re assuming the latter comes as part of the Performance Pack, which is fitted as standard on European cars.

The 2018 Ford Mustang Facelift Has Been Leaked And Not Everyone's Impressed

Judging by the initial online reaction, not everyone’s keen on the 2018 car. The like-to-dislike ratio on the YouTube video is particularly savage, and it seems like most commenters on Mustang6g.com aren’t fans of the changes. As far as we’re concerned, the facelift does give the Mustang a slightly moodier look which we’re not so sure about.

Still, initial reaction to refreshes (the ones that actually make a noticeable difference, at least) often strays toward the negative side, so the Internet may yet warm to the 2018 Mustang.

What do you think of the facelifted Mustang?

Maybe it’s sad cause there are no crowds to hit in the photos leaked?

Looks wider - more people to hit in one go I guess?

The people hating so hard will be the same people defending it just as savagely in a years time, then finally buying a third owner car when they can finally afford it in 2026.

I am waiting for CT to make a Top 10 reasons why the new Mustang is great, and then a couple of days later a Top 5 reasons why its the worst thing of all time.

No.
The people hating the hardest on it are those who’ll always hate on whatever Ford makes, because of their unawareness that whatever other U.S. brand they praise so much doesn’t make any better nor any worse cars.
Well, possibly worse, since Ford is actually able to sell something in Europe.

Honestly it really doesn’t need a facelift, it’s still a very new generation and it looks the part.

Well, most models that get a facelift get it around the middle of their models ‘life’ and the mustang is right about there

Lights have the 5th gen feel to them, which I am, quite frankly, a fan of
