This is what I was refering to. I should have been more specific as to wich design I was refering to.

I would agree with you....if that were even remotely true. :( But it's not: This car is one of a very rare few that have stayed 95% true to its pre-development program concept.

Have you seen it in person? I ask not to attack, but to understand...The only major difference is a subtle lip on the rear facia, and it's skinnier because the concept was stupid-wide...

See the image below:

EDIT: I didn't see your post...sorry. Disregard the above. The image you posted was never a concept. It was a rendering done by someone other than GM, I believe. But that was never the plan.

the only thing in the concept pic that resembles the 68 imo is the side profile

They were the only one of the three not going for a full-retro look. I understand now where you're coming from on that front. I for one was, and still am floored how well the design mixed a little bit of old with a lot-a-bit of new.

Yes, I have not only test drove one but three just to be sure I was not feeling sick. Hey im not here to change anyone's mind I just wanted to bs about my decision. I knew I would get harassed for it I'm just glad I found something I was happy with. And I would rather chill here than on a Stang forum.

Eh, actually I've seen some stang forums just as 'bad' as this one.. so I take that remark with a grain of salt (no offense, Tran n' mods). But if I might ask.. what pushed you to the Mustang?

And I mean design, handling, feel, price, the whole kitten caboodle. Not 'Baww GM dealers suk' (no offense intended).

TROLL



any forum gets bad every once in a while, you get 2 sides that disagree with each other then they one side posts up something that enrages the other side and all hell breaks loose

Well I have alway's liked the way the first Stang's looked and nothing in between until 2005. but being there was a chance for the Camaro coming I waited with all intent on buying one. I did'nt give the Mustang a second thought until I seen final production of the Camaro and that is when I started having doubt's and looked else where. I have alway's purchased GM in the past but I really like the newer Mustang's alot not so much in stock form but with all the option's it is in my opinion one sweet ass ride. Cant stand the 2010's either.

Ok, I can understand that part, but you first said that you had intent to purchase a 2010 Camaro and now..can't stand them? What made you make an about face like that?

I'm on the fence like you were but leaning Camaro still (it's ok guise.. I got this.). I just wanted to know what make you think "Eff it, I'm getting a 2010 GT."?
