This is the coolest modern Mustang, a definite achievement in styling ... a landmark in automotive design.
Heuu ..... nope. Get a hold of yourself 05s owners. The 05 is more of a Mustang thingy is lame. Let Ford move on, we can't all live in the past. My 11 year old neigbor gang saw the 2010 and said "sweet ... total awsomeness" and that's all matters.
Ford gives us hints of retro styling, because us "20s to 50" still drool on the cool look of the 60s. But to the new generation, the ones that will keep Mustang alive in 20 years, their root is now. Don't want to make it a generality, kids/teens dig the new 2010 ... our legacy is safe
Enjoy the pros & cons of your tangtangs. As most people out there don't care what u drive anyway.
Yea, you people can argue over which styling is more retro if you want.....nevermind that that's the dumbest argument I can think of having at the moment. But anyone who wants to say the 2010 is LESS of a Mustang than the 05-09 needs to be bitchslapped until their keys fall out their pocket. THAT is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. You pull half the people off the street and point to a 2010 GT and tell me that most of them won't know that it's a Mustang. Better than you would do with the new Camaro. If it weren't for the Transformer movies (along with the handy badges on the side) most people couldn't tell that it's supposed to be a Camaro.
This one needs to be locked up. I'm tired of all the bickering over -09 vs '10. It's the same damn car with some refinements, styling changes, and a better interior. If you prefer the styling of the 05-09's, that's great. But I see no reason to berate the 2010 or the ppl who want one just because you got "issues" with how it looks. No one outside of the internet really cares anyways.

I don't think they correct times at the 1320 for that......
My .02 worth is this: I just bought my new '09 GT for 2 reasons. 1 - I don't like the 2010's as much. 2 - the $4500 in rebates! It's an opinion thing. Like many others here have said, I like the new front end, & I love the new interior, but I can't stand the back end. I would own a 2010 & proud of it, but I'm happier with my '09.
I like them both overall. My '05 has been a pleasure for all 62k miles..for the most part. now, I have an issue with the noise in the interior, but I also have one of those very noisy transmissions that Ford refused to correct. Not a dealer issue..was a Ford issue. But the car is a head turner and I have enjoyed it.
I have very little time behind the wheel of the 2010 other than test drives in GTs and business trips in the V6 models. It's a great car as well. All my ills with the interior issues have been corrected...at least those I considered issues...and the refinement of the over-all car is great. I am sure I will enjoy all my miles behind the wheel of this one as well.

I certainly agree that the rear end on the 2010's leaves something to be desired. That being said, if I had the cash to drop on one, I probably still would...
Had to go to the dealer the other day for my first oil change on my '09. Plenty of time to see the 10's up close. I think I will now send my better half to the dealer for oil changes or do them myself! Nothing wrong with the new one, saw a white one a few weeks ago crusin' and thought it looked great. Then the oil change visit, they had a gold one, v6 (normally I hate gold cars), a red v6 vert, and a red GT. I want them all!! Ha, I've only had my '09 for 5 mo's and yes, if I had the cash I would get one!!
Still can't believe I liked the gold one, man it looked great. Glad it didn't have that new v6 in it or my payments would have been going up!!! I love the wheel choices they have and those must have been at least 17's on the gold v6 one.. Okay, must forget gold now and carry on...
Good Job Ford, keep it up and give us a new V6 for when I need a new one!!!!

My thoughts exactly. After seeing these in person, I am trading in my 08 V6 for a new 2010 GT. But depending on what happens with the 2011's V8 engine, I may just wait. Heck, I won't have enough money to put down on new GT for at least 6-8 months, so I'll know which direction I'll be going come early next year. Here's to hoping for a stock 400hp 2011 GT
Heck the wife told me the other day when she was driving it home from work (yeah we split who gets to drive it around) some lady was honking the horn on the freeway and gave her the thumbs up.
