Ditto. Although it appears that the later S197's had already started to lay the taillight panel forward a bit as compared to my 2008.

Stricter NHTSA - IIHS crash-test criteria? That's the only "reason" I can see for such a design. Esthetically, it suffers.

This may sound dumb, but I think that rear angle shot is one of my favorites so far.

Granted the snow covering the car might be helping me get past some of my subtle dislikes, something about a car out in 'nature' makes it look more proportional.

I think when a car is shown under such harsh lighting, it makes things stand out more than they should. Seeing them outside helps the design blend more together.

Hmmm, interesting. Looks like open grill style resembling the GT500.

trademaster · 02-05-2014, 09:10 PM

Very interesting. 295 winter tires would indicate tires at least that wide in stock configuration. It looks like they are hiding the brakes, there must be some sort of surprise there. It also looks like they are running quite a bit of negative camber in the rear for a stock setup.

motorhead · 02-05-2014, 09:17 PM

That is hot. This will be the nicest Mustang yet. I already love the standard model. Looks like the ZL1 will be rubbing elbows with a new Pony.

khell86 · 02-06-2014, 02:45 PM

I think it'll look great in Ingot Silver

Truck Norris · 02-06-2014, 03:36 PM

In a perfect world it would be nice to know what it could run at the Ring just for comparisons sake. It would be nice to see GM test it back to back against the 1LE at the ring (same driver)

Hopefully the mags put it up against the 1LE, I don't think the 2015 GT will be able to beat it at certain tracks during these magazines compro's.

JasonK · 02-06-2014, 05:39 PM

It's okay, but I'll stick with my '66 Mustang. To me it looks like a Mustang....

The more I see of it in side views the more I feel the front is too long. It just doesn't look right for some reason.
