Dear God no. Let's just hope it stays a concept.

Ford is being very tight lipped on what the next Mustang will look like. We were lucky enough to have our May MOCSEM meeting with lots of Ford execs/engineer types/marketing types and Ford Racing there. They were very careful not to give any clues on what the car will look like - not even a "wink wink nod nod say no more" out of them. The only thing they did say is "we listen to the Mustang community, and you will like what you see next"

I'm sorry but that concept from the first post is HIDEOUS in my opinion.
It looks like an import and really does NOT look like a Mustang to me at all.

Gag a maggot!

The back of the car looks good to me, but the front reminds me of a Hyundai. As posted by many others, I'm sure it going to change.

My wife who knows nothing about cars said it looked like a Jaguar. Based on that alone it needs to change.

Thank god it isn't the next Mustang. These magazines just keep guessing. Ford is not going to completely disregard the heritage like those renderings seem to. It may look futuristic. It may be a more euro styled design, but I guarantee you it's still going to scream Mustang.

I think it will grow on me. It does have a Jag/Aston Martin look to it. The sides retain the '05-'12 lines IMO. After getting used to the flat large **** on the '10+ models I can get used to any rear and i consider the rear of the concept an improvement over them. Engine wise they should retain a V8 as the upper/premium level. If hey denut its heart and drop the V8 from the lineup then I will definitely consider the Mustang 'Brand' truely dead.

Yeah, just like the Mustang II. Given the CAFE standards Ford has to meet, I'm really concerned that we are going to get a rice burner look alike. I don't see how Ford can keep a v8 in the car. Even the 6 cyl. may have to go away.

Well guys here's the Shelby GR-1 concept. More than likely this is much closer to what we'll be expecting in 2015.

RIP Carroll Shelby, passed away yesterday at age 89.
