I agree that the Mustang should be a fantastic car. No doubt. I just don't care for the look. Its not bad...not great. I'm sure modded ones will look pretty mean, but when I first saw the Camaro it blew me away completely. The Mustang doesn't do that for me at all. MustangG6 site has up shots of the the red Mustang with white stripes used as a pace car. I think it looks almost boring. Sorry. Just my opinion. Maybe its those wheels on that pace car...they are my least favorite ones.

But GM has a lot going for it already. In my opinion the Alpha chassis and engine choices they have are slamdunks already. Just got to get the size, weight, and look right.
