I don't think it looks bad on the outside, but I sure hope they changed the interior. I rented a 2012 for a week in Vegas and man that thing was cramped in the front seat, yea they have a little more room in the back seat, but I don't care about that, I want to be comfortable driving it.

ewwwww, inside and out, I don't like. Every time they change the current generation mustang, they get more fugly. I actually liked the original S197 design.

Agreed, wish it was more of a throw back look.

It doesnt hurt me to look at, just see more of other cars in it than a Mustang.

The non-SRT8 Charger looks sooooo much better than the SRT8...

To me that front grille is inching slightly closer to an Aston Martin. Just the overall shape of it- with the curves on the top left and right of the "mouth".

Ford Mustang designers cater to the secretary crowd and guy secretaries, if you get my drift.

Lol. Of course, makes you wonder who GM was targeting with Synergy Green. What an awful color on a car. There are very few greens I like on a car.

Actually, the 2012 Mustang was a great looking car...I could easily have bought one...still thinking about it. My car is an automatic and I really want a manual. Pray for me that I don't get real serious about a Mustang!

It's not bad to own a Ford. On this forum, it's bad to change from a Camaro to a Mustang. I traded a very nice 2008 Mustang Bullitt for my Camaro and I may trade the Camaro for a Mustang....I just get the itch for something different and I want a manual.

I feel the same about silver. Nice primer coat! Add colour please! <3 Synergy green! Although I would like to see a dark metallic green too.
