I definitely see Camaro in the rear "hips" they look better than the old Mustangs but still not a fan...

I definitely saw some similarities in the quarters.
I actually like the new Mustang. My wife really likes them. We ordered her a Ruby Red GT Premium convertible a couple weeks ago. Ironically, buying this Mustang gets me closer to my 6th-gen Camaro. Plan to get the Mustang paid off in time to order a 50th anniversary edition Camaro.

I'll need a bigger garage though. We'll have the GTO, Mustang and Camaro.

Ugliest Mustang to hit the road in a long time. We've had 2 or 3 of them in getting blowers fitted up and they're as bad in person as they are in photos. I prefer GM vehicles but I can appreciate all American iron and I just can't find an angle on this car that I like.

I also like the looks of the new mustang and haven't allowed myself to EVER do that... your garage problem is one I would like to have!

After seeing them in person, I love them. Fantastic cars. Can't wait for the 6th gen Camaro to kick its ass

just saw it in traffic for about a minute... need a better look but what I see on the internet the front end straight on looks jaguar like... don't like that pig snout look either... have always loved Camaros... except 4th gen and have owned at least one of all others... have never driven a mustang.

I seen the car in person and think it is completely butt ugly. The mustang it replaced looked a lot better IMO.
