Ugh, I think they both look bad. The wheels on the s197 make it look cheap.

I got a big pony on my s197 back window, I think it looks great and since it done with double layered tint it don't bother vision. but I do know what you mean about excuss amounts of mustang stickers

Isn't the orange one a Parnelli Jones edition or something, as in, came stock with those decals. Either it is, or it's made to look like one: http://www.mustangheaven.com/stangsp...nellijones.htm. At any rate.... Ford does make some versions with stock decals.
Yea that's what it looks like.
The Parnelli car has been in a couple of the Mustang magazines the past couple of months.

Personally, I think it looks very nice.
The first car is definitely Photoshopped.

I don't understand why people put MUSTANG or GT MUSTANG, GT religiously all over their car! I mean I suppose if some shmuck drivin a v6 thinks he's badass then he fits that profile, but why to nicer ones? Some people get the rocker kits along with the top of the winshield that say Mustang along with the ginormous Pony outlined logo in the back window??? Do they know that we know they have a Mustang!..lol I think they forget what kinda car they own and they do this to remind themselves! Now on the other hand, some cars just look plain sick!! But obviously without all the reminders of Mustang Logos. Compare the two pics and you tell me?
The best is i saw a camaro that had the "camaro" across the top of the windshield but it was backwards . . . so if you're inside it looked right. I guess he just often drove along and thought "wait a minute what kind of car do i have again? Oh right! Camaro! I got ya!" lol Typical Camaro owner

The second car is a Parnelli knock off. It is a GT with the decals.
Here is what the real thing looks like. Ithas a 302 with a shaker.

Some of us drive 99GT's that you can hardly tell is a GT unless it's from the back.

I would'nt mind a decent looking windshield banner across teh top that just said MUSTANG GT or something like that...

I use to see a lot of guys driving in the pro Sports Car series that would have their car type on a big graphic all over the car. That was probably some sort of sponsor endorsement or something.

Since it is a Cobra R...maybe thats why it orginally had that **** on it.
