i guess I might be in the minority but I really dont like the tailights. I like that the bottom is smoothed out but the overall look is just too much for me..

I think it is a huge improvement. The rear look so much better and I actually like the tail lights. One thing I do not like that I have said before is how all mustang look like GT500s now.

Don't get me wrong I think they all look awesome but I promised myself that this was it.......no more keeping up with the Jones's.....lol. I want a car that's paid off, I still can't believe I bought this one after being so close to having the other one paid for.....need to start doing other things with my money other than cars but they all do look very awesome.

I love my 12 gt but do wish that the new track pack was available when I bought my car.

I like it. I wouldn't say its any better or worse, just different.

I imagine most of those that didn't like the '10-'12s still wont like it, and those that did like them will probably like the 2013 too. Not radically different, IMO.


EDITED: The rear I mean.

Not necessarily, I'm one of those who never warmed up to the '10-'12 changes, especially the rear angle. I actually like the '13 restyle far better, to the point I would actually consider buying one, where the '10-'12 models never even made my "maybe" list.

Its the same angle.


I think you're probably in the minority of the 10-12 haters. I just don't see enough of a difference to satisfy all the rabid whiners and trash talkers, but maybe I'm wrong. Triple bezels around the tail lights and lack of the black plastic on the lower bumper is about it. Most of the angles are the same. (which seemed to be the main complaint)

*shrugs*

I agree with you. I think there will be a large amount of crossover. I do think more 05-09 lovers will also appreciate this design though, mostly in that the play with molding and the lights has sort of reduced the apparent angles of the rear in particular, which although it isn't actually different, will be perceived differently by that group I think.
