I agree, I think the concept is amazing, on this one the back is too long, but it still looks good though...thanks to the front of the car

...if this is what ford was going for - they kinda missed the mark a little..
... this is what they showed us...
... and this is what they delivered...
The sad reality is that the car has to first pass the "political correctness and budgetary commitees..."

^^^ I think they did it justice. Sometimes the production comes out looking nothing like the concept but this is not bad.

Finally an american car that looks reasonable. It still looks a little disproportioned with the overhang at the back. But I'm still impressed. It kind of reminds me of an older Aston Martin.

I love the new mustang. Its great. I cant wait for the 06 Mustang Cobra, the Saleen, and Roush. I also want to see what Shelby will bring to the Mustang again.

I really like the look of the new Mustang, looks like Ford is going back to their roots, with the new GT Supercar and this.
I think its a good idea, the new mustang looks SWEET

I think the concept looks better...it has sharper lines than this one...and that spoiler is just so fucking ugly...I don't like the little window on the C pillar...I also think that the hood scoops and the side vent looked good...I guess we'll see those touches in later models like the Cobra or the SVT

damn it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I liked the concept so much.
The production version is so average its like they took the concept and decided how they could make it more like the current mustang.
And i really wanted to like the new stang.
Well back to Ford mustang hating for me.
(true i have not seen the proformance figs yet which should be a huge improvement over the current stang)

Don't count on it... it's a real porker. It really is a shame, since it rides originally on a phenomenal chassis-- DEW98, which is what the Lincoln LS/Jaguar S-type share. Unfortunately they fell to the bean counters and cut costs EVERYWHERE.

i don't think they are using the LS platform, o and this car won't have independent rear suspension (i guess they are going back to their roots.... kinda) and this car brings back alot of memories, when i was growing up my dad had a 67 fastback v8, wow but we left it out one winter (my mom wanted HER can in the garage) and this thing rusted up like nothing i have never seen.
