Don't worry. I really like the way the new '13 5.0 looks in white. The contrast to me looks great. But from the Factory the Camaro hands down looks way better than the plain jain mustang.

Yea they USED to look better. Until the '14 redesign ruined that.

I was never attracted to the Mustang's styling, but I liked the '05 redesign. Wasn't a fan of the current Mustang, but feel like they improved it quite a bit with the headlight/taillight redesign. So much so, that I'd reconsider test driving the Mustang if I were to upgrade to a new car.

Sadly, I thought the new taillights were the only thing I disliked about the redesign. But after seeing the front end if an RS, I don't like the headlights very much either. The way they sit reminds me of wide-set eyes from certain birth deformities.

Yes I have, I saw one roaming the streets a week ago so I realized they must be here already so I drove up to one of the dealerships and they had them there. To be honest, and this is my personal opinion, they look worse in person. The taillights look abysmal and the front end looks like it was squished. I'd describe it exactly like lonestar described it

Well I wasn't a big fan of it but as I started to see all the different models at the fest from the base LS to the Z/28 and everything in between it grew on me. Not gonna say I perfer it over the 10-13 because I don't but I won't go as far as saying its abysmal. The one thing I do not like at all and this will remain constant for as long as this refresh stays around is the chrome strip they placed on the front bumper with the RS package. I can't stand chrome at all and I am not a huge fan of how the tail lights have chrome inside the plastic housing.

Yes, and I was a fan of the Camaro until the redesign

And now thanks to the redesign, I'm more afraid of what the 6th gen will look like

Does anyone in here have LED bulbs for things like the dome lights, license plate lights, or trunk lights?
