A Mustang can't sit on a Focus chassis or frame. It has to just absolutely scream Mustang from the bare metal up.

You should be able to show a woman the frame and have her say, "Oh. Thats a Mustang."

Yeah if its even close to that, I would defintily not be buying it. The 2005-2013 are so much better its not even right. I am biased for 05-09 but still love the current gens over the early 90's all the way back till the early 70's. I know things ebb and flow in designs and there is gonna be duds, ever so often, but if I wanted a European car particularly a Aston I would try my best to get one. I dont want the American Icon looking like that.

Car design is so inflexible at times. I can't stand the fact that cars will be going back to looking like soap dishes or products like electric razors. The high big *** tapered back end of an ugly Buick doesn't belong on a Mustang. The whole point of the Mustang is to take modern cues only, and then still retain the Mustang essence.

That car looks like the ugly cars they put on display at Emagine movie theatres in the lobby, where Mr and Mrs. "everyone" are supposed to like it. Boooooo! Eriki

+1 I thought that Europeans actually like the American look of the Mustang (ie being different). What are they going to think when it starts to look like other European cars? LOL

Let's make a bet. If it looks ANYTHING like it, you pay me a thousand dollars. If I lose and it looks totally different, I'll send you a case of beer lol!
