Yeah thats true! But just imagine how many people from all different branches were working on this car, finding the best possible option for both the producer and the costumer, and now some come here saying "im dissappointed", "less HP than camaro", "rice looking front"...i mean come on! This is a beautiful Stang IMO! And when it comes to power don't we all love boosting our engines, not matter how big they are?

only way i'll get rid of my mustang is if i can get into the challenger or camaro in a couple of years. Not really feelling the taillights or other cosmetic changes to the 2010 mustang.

Im sorry but this car looks like ****. I embrace the idea of a more aggressive looking Mustang but this is a step backwards from the S197's we already know. The rear looks like complete crap to top it off. Though I'll probably get used to the redesigned front end and its great they finally refined the over sized fender flares. 315hp....are you kidding me? 300hp out of the current GT was refreshing, but for a redesigned Mustang especially after starting the retro muscle car bs that everyone is copying 315hp is just insulting and embarrassing.

"=FAIL" is the lamest internet trend yet.

Anyway, as I said before, the 3.5 DI 6 in the Fusion (263 hp I believe) with the Mustang weighing 500 lbs less than the V6 Camaro would have been an AWESOME match up.

BIG deal is that they have improved handling. www.autoblog.com has a video of some guys from Ford talking about it. All cars have stiffer rates etc.

They could have saved the money they spent on the pathetic revealing and upgraded the powertrain to compete.
