some fresh updates for the new F6 (including pcm updates for cold start), and the F6-E gets the alpine rims.

Maybe because the others were already Euro compliant.

It's pretty disappointing as all they did was make the I6T Euro4 Compliant and put a couple of new badges and recycle some rims. Was hoping for a vewer look....

So I wonder if there is going to be a minor facelift in the form of a new front bar to coincide with the Coyote release, or whether they will soldier on with the raccoon eyes.

From what has happened with the F6, looks like it will soldier on with the same raccoon scenario....

The eyes stay but the V8 bar is slightly different. It’s the bar hiding under one of the mules with camouflage.

The F6E looks sensational with the 5th anniversary wheels. Bank of GT-E sharing this look.

i've seen the updated V8 bar, it's underwhelming if that's all they've done to the car.

Here's hoping it was just a an early prototype piece.

Underwhelming as in:
Could regular Ford fans easily miss the new bar if they didn't know what to look for?
