It looks like proof that a 2011 mustang GT date raped an ls camaro.

Are you Blind ?

To those that are in denial-come on get real.The Front end, fender contour's, and the roof line,for starters.It has so many similarities you would have to be out of your mind not to recognize them.I say get your own design and make it unique.That what it is all about no matter what brand it is I can appreciate them all and look at all of them objectively the good the bad and the ugly !

You sir need to open your eyes. That's pretty much a Camaro with a Mustang badge.

FYI...that is a slightly reworked (not by Ford) version of a design that pre-dates the G5 Camaro design by over a year. This is not what the next-gen Mustang will look like.
Keep in mind if it were not for the success of the 2005 Mustang, there would have been no G5 Camaro.

^What he said.

As mentioned, that drawing is from around 2006. Not what the 2014 will look like.

Whatever dude. It looks more like a progression from the current model than a Camaro. It looks very mustang to me.

But the Camaro's design started before that because the concept Camaro debuted in 2006 as an actual car, not a drawing.... It took more than a year to design an build the concept Camaro, so it's design probably was set before the success of the 2005 mustang was even known.

Yeah but his point was that that design was not Ford copying the Camaro in this case like you all claim.
