Those are indeed interesting looking seats. I wonder how they feel compared to the standard seats in a Mach E, and compared to Recaro's in say a current gen Mustang or Camaro?
I’m also wondering about the seats. I found the MME premium seats fairly comfortable, but they look entirely different.

A lot of head rests are positioned too forward for me. Add a helmet, and it becomes a pain, not to mention rubbing my paint job off or the helmet. I might be in the market for different seats once I get my GT-PE, but I might not. I won’t know until I sit in mine. Whenever that will be.
Non-issue. Dave Pericak had no trouble with his Sparco helmet hitting the headrest when wheeling the PE around Ford’s proving grounds in this video. He looks a bit short but I think you’re gonna be good.

We’ll see. Most head rests are too far forward without the helmet. In most cars I turn them around backward. I hope that the head rest is fine. I’ll find out when I get my car in 2029. ?

@0t60-3.5 if it isn't asking too much, would you make a video at night time of the pony lighting up in the front and post it? :p

ANY ONE OF US would've been happy take delivery for you and wash and wax it and test drive for that bonus week. It's too bad you wouldn't trust us to do that for you.

Weekend's coming.... charge up the battery - we want a full report.

Good luck with it.

Oh, when did you order?

Looks like a 6 car garage. You got 5 more on the way? Absolutely beautiful pictures. You made a great choice!
We are blessed and have 6 car garage spots already filled with four cars for kids / teenagers / college then Mom & Dad's cars. Alas, three cars heading off to college / apartment soon.

Thanks! Best pics i’ve seen oh GTPE interior. Glad I could see GT only button to turn off stability and traction control. To be honest seats don’t look as cool as I’d hoped but maybe they look better in person. But more importantly how do they feel and are the controls the same as for other trims?

I would say the dark grey color is lighter in the pictures than seeing in person, so I think it does look cooler in person.

I've let a couple other EV techies drive it today and they are impressed:
Feel it in the gut.
Like a roller coaster or space shot
Tight control - great stability
Heavy sense of regeneration, ie. let go of pedal and can definitely feel it actively slowing down, not coasting.
15 minutes later: still feel it in my gut

Great pics hope welcome to the family and the official first gt post congrads. But now the honeymoon is over fast. I'll ask the real question. Is she fast?

Just so you know you're already internet famous and all of the internet is currently relying on you for a full review and report as soon as possible, since Ford has everyone else on lock down.

Actually I'll give you a tip, you could make some YouTube money putting out a review video just because you aren't bound by ford's embargo. You could literally beat every car reviewer out there and have the first video online racking up views.
