Well, not much to see with the cloaking -- rear fascia seems not settled (no exhaust tips or aero rear insert), though that area is not cloaked either...

This is the ’18 Ford Mustang convertible (heavily cloaked -lol):

The Mustang will get some minor changes for 2018 to keep it fresh after its comprehensive redo in 2015. The styling should be tweaked, and new special editions and trim packages will be offered, such as the Mach 1.

More significant changes are expected under the skin, with a new 10-speed automatic finding its way into the Mustang, along with likely changes to improve power and economy. It's unclear if the naturally aspirated V6 will continue. (I'd bet it the NA version will be gone).

Expect to see the ’18 Mustang early next year. (will be interesting to see if production gets back on the 'normal' schedule ...I suspect so)

I was at the dealer and saw the 17 Mustang and the grill is ugly except for the GT. You can tell the 2.2 from the V6 and the 5.0. They are all different from the front. I love the body lines of the 17 but the face needs a paper bag. :rofl:

You can get that 10 speed auto in a 2017 Raptor, ( which is a 6 cyl. ), but you can't get it in a 2017 5.0 F150 !!

Might be an initial volume ramp-up consideration (don't know)? I'd expect it to be available more widely in 2018 ...possibly even in the '18 5.0 MGT.
