C'mon man, its not that bad. I think its a good lookin car. I used to not like Mustangs and other Fords, but with this Japanese rice invasion, if it's GM, Ford, or Dodge I like it. Camaro, Mustang,(Charger??) We're all on the same American muscle team

Retro anything sucks, plain and simple...where are they going to go from there make then next one look like the 70's mustang? Be creative, I think it sucks...just my opinion.....

It's not that I don't like the new Mustang because it's "retro" no because it's a Mustang, I just don't like the final production vehicle. Not in V8 or V6 form. I liked the show car's front a lot better. Maybe I'll like a different iteration, but the current two shown make me want to .

Actually, the original 1965 Mustang was "retro" in the sense that many of its design cues were taken from the 1956 Lincoln Mark. BTW, how many here know the original Mustang was designed my Mercury designers?

And that one was ugly, too.

Which one the 1965 Mustang or 1956 Lincoln Mark? The Mark wasn't exactly pretty, heh.

A lot of new cars are retro in some sense too. I was looking at a side by side pic of some vintage Jag next to a new one (don't remember models), and they're very much alike.

z28ever, that's the v6 i saw too. We didn't get the GT. I thought it was a very good and clean looking car, and loved it. I thought it looked great in person in comparison to the pics i've seen online. I thought i would hate the rear, but loved that too.

The Houston autoshow will be here in a week or so. I'll be getting pics. Hopefully the GT and V6 are present. Any GM pic requests?

The first thing that would go is the little spinners on the wheels...then the spoiler. IMO-The V6 version looks much better. The GT looks a little crowded.
