2010 Mustang Pictures LOL

I dont know if you guys have seen these pictured of the 2010 Mustang, but it just looks...sick, and not in a good way. It just makes me happy to know the Camaro will kill this horse in the looks department but we still dont know what is under the hood so it might be a problem

I havent posted pictures here and i cant seem to get it right so the best i can do is post the link to the pics:

It actually looks very promising imo...even with that nasty camo paint and in preproduction form. Finished car should look good. I like the renderings.

To me, it looks like a gateway box mated with a 2005 Mustang.

I only notice very minor differences from the 2005+ mustangs.

There's a lot actually.
Just that it stays with the current design structure as the 05-09s.

- hips
- powerdome hood
- new C scoop
- new front end
- new rear is WAY more sculpted than the current car
- interior is completely new but stays with the same style layout

Looks like a C5 to C6 evolution to me. Very similar design themes in a tighter package. Looks ok. This one wasn't going to blow people away like the '05 Mustang or new Camaro did because this isn't really a clean-sheet redesign.

Looks good to me! It *appears* as if they've pulled the nose and tail in a couple inches each?

Hard to really see the shape of the front end though with the colour of the car being black.

This cars design was locked even before the Camaro concept was shown to the public

Maybe I am too distracted by the spots. Guess it worked on me.

Looks nice, I like it. They didn't completely screw over the current models looks, which is a very good thing. I'm glad it doesn't look anything like that Giugiani (SP?) concept from a year or so ago.

That's the problem with a retro theme'd design is where to go next? I'm not a big fan of making changes for the sake of change but the 2005 design will need to be freshened up and Ford isn't in the position for a full redesign yet.

To the people that like it: Looks can be decieving, this thing won't be as powerful as what most people think. I'm not so sure about its "400hp 5.0L v8." odd for a car like the mustang to jump 100 hp when being normally aspirated when ford is known for S/C'ing mustangs. Personally I don't really like the body style, especially the back. As for the whole body, it looks like a modern day e-type with the inside being stretched out a whole bunch.

Maybe not the 4.6 in 2010,
but the 2011 will have the 5.0, and yes... 400+hp
Even if they rate it slightly lower

Just because you don't believe it, doesn't mean it won't happen.

And don't worry, the S/C isn't going anywhere in the short term.
Long term...well... yeah.. it may go away.

If the renderings are accurate that is a pretty decent improvement IMO. Not like I'll ever buy a Mustang most likely but that looks pretty good. Hopefully it does well for Ford.
