Was Mitchi there?
I suppose I could understand indicator regulations, but why don't the Euro GT's have the little hood vents?
Also, those vents are used on a package here in the States that put repeaters out in those vents, if I can recall correctly.

Apparently, it was axed on the 2017 model.
Never noticed.. potentially pedestrian safety regulations. Which is what changed hoods in the past years.. and hood angles, heights, slopes, space between the engine and the hood.. all those..
Pedpro regulations.
Really? Those flimsy little pieces of plastic make that much of a difference?
I don't actually know, but I'm guessing it has more to do with the underlying structure and various differences that don't support the vents.
Isn't that just stupid? Rather than ruining automobiles how about just either; a) not hitting people by accident by paying attention
Ahh, I was also assuming it had something to do with pedestrian safety, but those vents didn't seem substantial enough to me. I'm pretty sure there have been numerous European sports cars with similar hood details after all, like some Jaaaaaags.
Why?
Pretty sure you have the wrong guy, there....You were one of the few that was discussing back and forth about how the mustang is crap compared to Europeans and nothing is better than a euro car. This was in the 2015 mustang thread... So, I guessed that, on the forums you didn't like it but, once you saw it in person you were either envious or surprised at his choice.
Just realized theres no strut tower brace. I thought all Performance pack Mustangs were supposed to get one
EDIT: Turns out its a Euro thing. Crash safety regulations or something stupid.
