More images of the Zetec S and ST released today. The ST is still looking very smart, but suprise of the bunch is a picture of the ST with a huge stripe down the bonnet. Presumably an option...

Copying the paint job on the GT supercar isn't it?

Bit OTT for me.

I don't know if you guys noticed, but if you have a closer look at the images there are some interesting differences. You'll notice that on the left-hand drive ST, the door handle is black plastic (like in my Zetec). If you look at the image of the right-hand model, the door handle is, what looks like, aluminium alloy.

Something else, the seatbelt knips are orange on the one image (right-hand drive), and grey on another image of the ST and on one of the Zetec S.

Do we have any idea which would be standard and which would be optional, or do Ford themselves not even know yet?

Personally I think the alloy door handle and grey seatbelt knips look really hot, but then the fabric insets need to be the same colour as the knips.

Not really sure, almost looks like a mistake to me. I thought they had to be red for safety reasons?

One of the pictures you've seen is the Zetec-S and its in Grey scale for some reason.

Very interesing to see the ST with the stripes... funny how that was supposed to be on the RS... a 'sign' maybe...???

There is white stripes down the doors exactly the same as the RS Concept ones...

Hope this isn't the end for the RS *sigh*

I saw these photos this morning and I have yet to stop laughing at that stripe.
It looks absolutely shite, and is out dated by like 5 years (not that I ever thought it was in).

If it's done as a spin off the GT then it's too late as everyone see's it as a Viper thing, and look pants anyway.

I think they should stop fannying around with vinyl strips and just release the car!

I personally don't think it works.

If it was me and I bought the car, I'd ask for it to be removed.....

I think that the strips down the side of the car look really nice! However the main strips are a little mad! I think they have tried to give the car a Ford GT spinoff look, but at the end of the day, it just isn't a ford GT! Maybe a bitmuch for us brits over here! Would like to see in the flesh though still!
