I still think its ass end is just horrible. Looks like a 2013 GT got rearended by a truck and they touched it up afterwards.

I always wanted a mustang before I saw the 5th gen Camaros. So glad I didn't get a mustang. The current one's are pretty nice but the 2015...

This thing is getting better with every release....and it's only a base V6.

Actually it's the turbo 4 with performance pack. You can tell by the boost gauge between the vents.

I really like it, especially the interior if it finally looks upscale. And I hope the new Camaro gets better too. Both look cheap now.

My problem will be the loss of 200 pounds. Right now with bolt-ons I can run with and beat most stock Boss 302s. If the standard GT is faster, Im going to need a cam.

As more comes out, its starting to look better, but I assumed it would.

When we finally get a video of the car moving that will push some people over the edge...its just the way it always goes. First photos...crap. More realistic photos...not bad. Video in action....cool!!

That said, I'm not changing my opinion thus far. Still a decent looking sporty coupe with less soul than its predecessors.

I'm 30 years old, so I'm neither in the very young crowd who may not like retro, and I'm not in the older crowd that may love retro. I think younger buyers may like it, especially those that may not have considered a Mustang before. Others that care about the soul of the car, and keeping iconic names like Mustang and Camaro unique may not care about it so much.

Oh, and the leaked color selection on the Mustang 6G site seems pretty drab to me....about like the Camaro color selection.

That's exactly who they're going after. However, my father is 62 and a big Mustang guy likes it a lot so who knows. It might end up appealing to everyone.

Hmmm, looks like more of a mid-gen refresh than a clean slate from the exterior, but I guess if the looks are still doing well on the current gen there's no need to reinvent the wheel.

lack of a trunk anyone notice? that's where the two hundred pounds is lost, and a roof line so low its for dwarves, and the rear end is WTF....... yes it screams parts of other cars, morphed 130r and 370z with tiberon. And I know they will make more power as if they need it , and it will not last as CAFE standards are coming up fast!!!!!

I like it, I also like the current Mustang though. The only issues I see with it are the low roof line in the back for passengers and I wonder how this design will hold up in 4-5 years since it is so similar to the current.

More food for thought.

I can't recall any car with better proportions than this other than the 65 GT350.

A new classic?


I will say this pic here makes it look so much better!
