F%@ked? I don't think so. F%@ked is when you have to stop producing a model because it doesn't sell, like GM did to the Camaro eight years ago.

The "all new redesign" happened in the 2010 model year. The 2011 got the new engines.

This is the USA for goodness sake! Do we have to dwell on the ownership of a word that is in the dictionary? When did GM acquire the exclusive right to a public word? We all need to appreciate the Camaro and Mustang for their merits. Both are fine examples of today's technology.

I definitely don't think the Stang's front end looks like the Camaro, really not sure where that is coming from. Let's see:





hmmm, nope, not seeing a similarity there

Found the name of the song and band: Light of Morning by Band of Skulls. I drink the Camaro Kool-Aid but I got to give big props to the Ad agency that came up with this commercial for ford. I downloaded the song and will rock it in my SS...

Mustang Commercial over and over again.....

I want deny it's not a bad looking car but...

I am so sick of seeing this V6 Mustang commercial! I just hear the start of that dumb song and wanna turn the channel.

So what if you "transformed" it. You can thank us we did it first and don't need a stupid commercial to play a hundred times a day. We still out sold and have the hottest car on the road!

Just wonder if anyone else has noticed it playing a lot.

You must be watching Leno, lol

It's funny because I left my TV on after the news and I heard the commercial 3 times in a short period of time, 3rd time I finally actually watched the commercial. It looks ok but it is so rounded and boring. I am not biased but just never really been a fan.

Must be a regional ad thing. I haven't seen the commercial in months (though I know which one you're talking about).

Yoiu gotta give Ford credit for one thing: They were smart enough to make the Mustang in a ragtop. GM ain't so smart. Something in the distant future does not count.
