Its neat but no wow factor like our 5th gens. Its too rounded off and dull. There is no "cool" part of the design that gives it strong character. You can tell this is a boring global car.

No " Wow " factor like the camaro! This thing will definitely blend in with other cars on the road. This car will get outdated fast! Wait it is already outdated in looks. How many cars do this thing look like?

The Camaro certainly had a "wow" factor back in 2009, but not so much anymore. The current design, even with the refresh, is getting a little long in the tooth.

I think it looks nice. I have always liked Mustangs, and I think they did a good job keeping some of the retro touches while adding a modern element. I just think that the Ford style language is a bit strong. As with most every Mustang, I am sure that it will just keep getting better looking with each upgrade and refresh. Here's to more and more Chevy vs. Ford debates! Don't get me wrong, I love my V6 Camaro, and I personally feel that it is a much better car than the V6 Mustang, but I don't care about brands, its the looks and performance that interest me.

I do like the fastback look of it, but it doesn't really wow me.

The interior is awesome though.

Yeh...I was looking at pics online and was thinking of getting one, but I think the 2014s look better. I never was crazy about the 2014 tail lights and was thinking I am sure Ford will fix that for 2015 especially since they will be competing with the Camaro styling. I was expecting them to go all out on cool styling. In my opinion they effed it up from what I saw in pics. So I kept telling myself maybe stripes will set it off. I did some searches and stripes could not mask the styling failure. A fusion grill, the roof line with the exposed rear side windows and the slanted back tail lamps pointing to the sky is quite shiddy and I am both a Mustang and Camaro fan. I am sure its a better car though..Independent rear suspension, worked over 5.0 and lighter weight. It will be a runner and handler. Sure styling is not as bad as 1994 Taurus front end Mustang or the old Mustang II. But this was a Must for Mustang to shine. They took a Must and turned it into a Didn't. Its a Don'tstang for 2015. I guess its safe to say that Fords Mustand styling department sucks.

I'm liking the 2014 Camaro refresh, not much the rear but the front looks cool...

a lot of people I have talked to that are not really muscle car people love the new design. Maybe they are trying to go more mainstream with it? Personally I think its underwhelming, not ugly by any means though. Gen5 Camaro's IMO are still the sexiest car on the road.
