What can I say, same as every time we have had a change, it's starting to grow on me.

I saw both the 10 and the 09 at the same time when I picked up my 09. I like the front of the new 10, I think it looks meaner than the 09. I also like the cowl in the 10's hood. I don't think they really improved on the dash or anything else on the interior that much with the 10 but the seats with the color matched stitching and the stripe really look nice. the back of the car to me is just different, not better, not worse.

to me it came down to what I could get the better deal on and it wasn't worth the extra money for the little differences plus I knew I was going to mod it right away and there's tons of 05-09 parts out already. if they were both the same exact price then I would have gotten the 10 just to have the newest one and the more aggressive looking front end.

the 10' definitely solidified my choice to keep my 08.....(imo) the exterior is Barbee like at best, but the interior is alright....put everything together, add the same motor, and you have a giant tragedy,IMO......the 10' gt500 is pretty sweet.....albeit, magazines can't break 12's with the stock tires and 540 hp.....where is my light weight stang, without star trek looks, and a real motor(302,347,351)?

Who ever come up with a redesigned rear (including the tail lamps), will have the winning ticket.

It seems so much smaller length-wise which takes away from the fact that it is a muscle car in my opinion...

At first, I didn't like the looks of the 2010 either, but I've actually grown to like the exterior. I have not gotten a good look at the interior yet.

It seemed like it took a long time for the dealership in my area to get their hands on the 2010's. I've only seen one or 2 that are prominently displayed in the front of the place as I drive buy. Not a lot of them in the lot yet.

I think that the 2010's are just a couple of cosmetic touches away from being very pleasing. Just look at this Steeda mule. Such simple changes make a big difference. i think it looks badass.

that red is really nice in person, nice and dark. the dealer I got my 09 from had about 20 2010 GT's in stock. I played around with those for a while before playing with the 09's. it's preference and I think when a few of them are seen hooked up then they'll grow on everyone. to me I like the front better but the new car is definitely no reason to run out and trade in your 05-09, but if you've got a 04 or older it would be a good upgrade.
