We need a facepalm smiley. It would fit the front end of that car well.

Now I'm even more happy that Chevrolet already announced they would not follow suit. For some reason my memory is telling me that Dodge plans to join Ford in this though... Hopefully I'm thinking of something else.

Nope, they've grafted a Challenger nose onto a NASCRAP car with minimally better results.

--->hyperbole<---That thing posted on autoblog is so damn ugly it might kill the brand althogether (and I ain't talk'n NASCRAP!)--->hyperbole<---

Man, I'm really torn though, I cant stand this abomination but GAC is a France family business and I like GAC

I kinda think it's gonna HURT Mustang to be associated with Nascar. I'm certainly not thrilled about it.

Ford just sees the opportunity to take over the mullet crowd now that our car is so much nicer than theirs.

I kid, I kid, the new stang is a helluva nice car as well.

Kinda makes their "White Trash" version Camaro that themustangnews made a little funnier now though doesn't it.

That is pretty ugly. Looks like the car is closing its eyelids, almost going to sleep.

It looks like a Mustang with down syndrome.

I have actually used that comparison on the normal Mustang...but this "Nascar" is just pathetic...I pray we never see the Camaro in Nascar

If they wanted to do a true stock car racing between the 3 muscle cars that would be cool but this "car of tomorrow" crap is ridiculous...
