Thumbs down Who else here thinks the '05 Stang GT is ugly as sh**?

Too big, too heavy, too small of motor, and ugly as the pile of dog sh** in my front yard. I hope the up and coming Camaro tromps it's a** in both speed and sales. What do you guys think of it?

At first I thought it was really ugly but after seeing some in person I kinda like it.

i'd have to say they're pretty awesome for a mustang, which is big for me to say not being a mustang fan AT ALL! maybe not as fast as possible (don't really know honestly) but as far as design, kudos to ford

The front looks good.
The rear looks like crap. IMO.

And Ford already pulled the ace out of their sleeve with the 03 cobra. Nothing left to wow the public with as far as performance is concerned on the new GT model.

Jealousy is a many splendid thing. Must of gotten "killed" by one in the recent past (hence the reason it is in this Forum I'm sure - he just left out the details).

I am not usually a mustang guy but I think the new GT is really sharp looking.

I am depressed that automakers have officially let us know they are out of ideas. If all they can come up with is a tweaked design they used 30+ years ago (retro), what do I have to look forward to style wise 20 years from now?

That's a pretty easy question to answer - a new 2024 Camaro styled like a 3rd Gen.

Of course, that assumes GM brings back the Camaro by then.

We will see after I run one. I haven't even seen one driving around yet. Maybe i'll get my chance at the track this spring. That's not my point anyway. I should hope Ford made the newer Stang faster than the older ones. The point is, I think the car is butt a** ugly. There are plenty of ugly cars that are faster than most on this board. Like an old primered rusted Chevelle with a big block and nitrous.

I like the new look. I'm ready for SVT to come out with a Cobra in that bodystyle

Re: Who else here thinks the '05 Stang GT is ugly as sh**?

I really liked the 03-04 looks. If I wanted one that looked like a 60s Mustang, I'd go buy a 60s Mustang.

I like the instrument cluster a lot, both in appearance and its umpteen hundred illumination colors. However, the dash itself looks like "Audi meets the 1960s".

At least it's got some amount of power. Even the v6 is right on the heels of a 5.0 from 10 years ago (man, has it been that long already?!?!)
