i know i was pointing out that they say its a "rendering" as questioned earlier, thanks for the positive attitude

Pictured here is an artist's rendering of what Ford's next Pony may look like.

You know I feel like I have seen that article before. I am trying to remember. Let me think...it's coming to me...it's coming. Oh I know, it's the same EXACT picture from the SAME EXACT article that is referred to in the original post.
No problem.

"You think GM screwed up on the C6? The C5 looks larger and heavier than the C6. The C6 is more compact and looks muscular with the wheel bulges. Looks more like the classic vettes than the C5. " -jodl73

Like I said, it's just my opinion. Let it lie man...

If you want more about how the C6 disenfranchised so many owners, let me know, personally. Everybody has their favorite'Vettes, the C6 isn't mine....

My point was that this "rendering," of the new mustang doesn't have any of the cues that made it a success. It takes the current model and turns it into a pontiac; "some model that we can throw a ton of plastic on to make it look good." The "rendering," doesn't consider the Mustang's complete history. It relies on too much of the last generation(big shoulders)with no thought of the previous, relevant ones.

Not that the rendering looks bad...but seeing this still makes me feel good about buying an 07.

im sorry, the camaro and challanger both look like a BIG ugly two door sedan,

if the mustang has 350hp, I hope it has at least 420+ lbs torque all in the mid & top end,.

Ford is starting to drift away from the sports car look, into more of a professional refined look, Id like that in a Family Sedan, not a muscle car. Im sure body kits will be available
SPORT/MUSCLE CAR LOOK

That's true the front end does look smaller and less muscular in these "spy" shots but I think that's what Ford is going for to appeal to people like my wife who want more understated styling... I hope a hood scoop is available for the GT to add some bulk to the front fascia.

Oh, and +1 on the Camaro and Challenger point, LOL.

I agree the face doesn't have the mean look previous mustangs have, this one looks more like its blankly stareing.
