From those who have seen it.....the production car is supposed to be much nicer than the concept. I sure hope so.

I'm anticipating the production version looking a lot better. Thick front bumper (with Grand Prix foglamps) and tail lights need to be reworked. Profile doesn't seem very different from current car.

It's already growing on me. I like the front end but hate that back end. It looks aggressive and muscular and the 400hp and 390lb-ft of tq is nothing to complain about and does a good job at backing it's aggressive looks.

Man I HOPE the real car looks better than that. The interior is so overly cliche in its retro-ism I can't believe it, along with the equally cheesy back end...as I said with GTO I will wait until I see the final car before deciding...

I really like the interior.

I like the front.

I hate the back.

Those taillights are the worst ever.

Like was said over at BON, keep in mind that this was the concept we saw before the 1994 Mustang came out:
Mustang Mach III

Wow...that looks quite terrible. Man, looking at the new GTO, and now looking at those concept pics of the new Mustang, makes me a little depressed.

I hate that interior. If i wanted a car that looked like a 64 Mustang...I would buy a 64 Mustang. IMO this shows Ford isn't creative enough to redefine the Mustang. Instead they have to reach into a bag of retro tricks to get the GEE SHUCKS factor outta people. I think it may work a year or two, but after that the design will age quicker than most cars. It is like Scott once told me...why would we design an all out retro Camaro? We need a car that can sell 7+ years without a total redesign...that doesnt happen with Retro.

Wow... that is NOT good looking at all.

Man, I hate retro.... look at this thing!

The interior is bad.
The front is bad.
And the back, which I thought was at least OK, is bad too...


I wouldn't be caught dead driving that frankenstein.
