I was hoping for something like this. This rendering is way more aggressive.

You sir lose your man card. Anyone that would call the Ford GT a fail has a screw loose. How many corvettes in those years have gone up in value. Let me see, 0.

I have to agree. I was looking forward to the next Mustang but this definitely isn't impressive. I'm not a fan of the EVOS concept look and was hoping the Mustang would maintain its own look.

I'm still reserving full judgement until the rest of the car is revealed. And the other trims as well. Judging a car by just one part or view is rather shallow.

The "whale mouth" grille has been an AM design feature even before the Mustang was launched I'm afraid...

I didnt realize it was THAT obvious until the comparison pictures.

now having viewed them like that, I would be very surprised if thats remotely close to the production version. Maybe the test guys/design are just f-ing with people. (Unlikely though I know)

What do I know, im just a ford troll on a camaro site...back to my hurt feelings

I think the Fusion is a good looking car.

Imagine a Fusion with 350+ HP, now that would be something.

Its a new mustang render but to me it says Ford GT to me
If the new Mustang GT Shelby looked like that, my Camaro would be traded in for a Ford! Damn that one one freaking awesome looking beast!
