Ford Mustang's new European look: A big mistake?
#14
Mother's first new car was a 1976 SS Camaro with T tops.
I'll be taking a good long look at an RT Challenger if I don't like the next Mustang.
In about 7 years, I'll be in the market for a new muscle car, and this time I'll be buying off the dealer lot. If nothing moves me, I guess I'll be putting up money to BUILD something that does, like the GTM Supercar kit, or the drawings I have on my desk.

All my relatives either had an SS Camaro or a Nova with the 454 back in the 70's.

The next few years will be interesting. The Camaro will be redesigned (guessing) in what 5 - 7 years? The Challenger is supposedly being dropped and the Mustang is going more "euro". Like Young Gun I will be in the market for a car in 6 or 7 years. Depending on the looks of what is out at the time I will probably just keep the Mustang as a nice weather/weekend fun car and either get a v6 of the Camaro or Mustang depending on how they look or find a slightly used Lincoln or something and have an entry level luxury car for a DD (though I'd rather it be a sports/muscle car).

If the average car buyer is 51 years old, then yes, they have to do something dramatic. I'm saying this as a 51 year old guy. This is not the demographic you want as it also contains the Crown Vic (what I had before the GT). To survive, it has to appeal to a younger group.

The only people who should be considered are the ones who can afford a Mustang, and the generation of the sh*trice should not be taken into account.

This discussion is fairly pointless. People that like it will buy it, and people that don't will still with everything made prior to it (or jump ship altogether). It's that simple. And for the record, my previous car was a Crown Vic LX Sport.
