Ok, this may seem like a question with an obvious answer but there are quite conflicting images floating around. OK, not for you GT folks. That front is consistent (I think) across the pictures. For the rest of us, I'm not sure we really know what a Select, Premium, California Route 1, or First Edition will look like.
The confusion starts with the Ford Mustang Mach E page and selector (https://www.ford.com/suvs/mach-e/2021/)
The Select has the little ribs on the oval around the nose and the Premium a smoother oval:
I'm a little bummed because I like the ribs on the Select but definitely like the Premium lights.
And the First Edition and Route 1 are just Premium variants.
Sure enough, the First Edition has that smoother oval:
And so does the Route 1, right?
Wait, where did those ribs come from? Is the Route 1 a Premium? Yes, per everything else. But why the Select ribbed oval?
And the air dam below the battery vents is colored to match the body like this:
This should be how my Grabber Blue FE should come out (although a little lighter than this blue).
But wait, what's with this Rapid Red?
Does the Select now come with a black air dam? That has a bit more aggressive look to it. Is that an option?
Wait, check the door: it says E4X. That's no Select. Is this the Route 1, now with the Select ribbed oval but a black air dam? No, can't be. Route 1 is a Mach EX, not an all wheel drive. The lights are definitely Premium. What is this beast? New styling for the First Edition (If so, I'm psyched)? Or is this mis-built or mis-rendered?
Anyone have better answers on this or will we have to wait until they arrive in person to find out how the nose really looks?
