I went and checked out the new 2015 5.0 Mustangs yesterday

Muscle Car Memories · 04-04-2015, 11:29 AM

Yep I went, couldnt help myself and had time to waste. The dealer had about 5 of them and after sitting in 1 with recaros and seeing the new Mustang 5.0 up close I gotta admit Im a fan.

They sit a little lower than the previous model Mustang's and the rear end of the Mustang looks fantastic as does the front end, I dont see the fish analogy and most guys who do just wanna criticize Ford IMO.

I think Ford did a great job and Im very interested to see the new 2016 Camaro as well!...

These are the good ole days believe it or not....

Nothing wrong with that. I saw an orange GT with black rims and it looked pretty good. I agree that these are the good ole days!

Lighten up dude. Chevy isnt exclusive in making muscle cars. Ford & Dodge also make some great muscle cars.

Before I saw one from behind on the road I thought they looked pretty good, but actually seeing one changed my mind totally.
Good thing not everyone likes the same look though, then the road would be full of look alike cars.

I honestly think photos dont do them justice. I was pretty impressed. The sales guy asked me, so you wanna trade in that Camaro?, I said no....lol and we kept talking and he said he owns a 1999 SS Camaro but he said these new Mustang's run really well and he is a GM guy.

I agree with they look nothing in person like they do in pictures. I'm starting to see a lot of them around here and they do look very nice. Black especially looks good, the lighter colors seem to hide the lines a bit. Still prefer my 5th gen but the new Mustangs certainly made an improvement in the looks department.

These new Mustangs are the first ones that look different from all the other years of Mustangs on the road....I never paid much attention to the Mustang models in previous years, as to me, they all looked pretty much the same...

...I gotta say though, that the '15s I've seen on the road really stand out and look very nice...at least they are an attention getter compared to previous years...I think Ford has hit a home run and the last several months of sales seem to reflect that as well...

Some of them had a small rear spoiler on them and some didnt but I like the rear spoiler just needs to be a little larger cause you can barely see it. The ass end of the new Mustang 5.0's looks very muscular.

Looks like a Camaro from some angles, hate they had to make it similiar like that.

But they do look alright

Rear spoiler and a grille delete make this model.

I'm in the air, love my 13 Shelby, excited to see a '16 Shelby

I grew up with Ford, my grandfather always drove Ford, My dad still only drives Ford so I also love Ford but I also love Chevrolet's and IMO you cannot go wrong with either brand
