Default '10-'11's Rear End

Since all the people on here are probably owners of a 2010 Mustang, what is your opinion on the rear end (tailights) of the new Mustang.

I initially bought the car for the interior and exterior upgrades...with the exception of the rear. It was my least favorite part of the car but to be honest, so was the rear of the '05 to '09 which I owned as well. The rear has grown on me alot and now I definitely like it more than the previous style.

Love it. I love the front more but think the rear looks fine.

I dont have an issue with it at all. Heck I didn't even know there was a problem with it until looking on forums like these.

Everyone I have met in person thinks it looks great.

I really liked the car all around... I always thought the rear end of the mustangs before this were just a little boring... I think these are a little to rounded... but hey I love my mustang inside and out

Question Love It! Axle question?

You have two diffrent axle packages, Which is better?

1) 3.55 rear limited slip axler ratio

or

2) 3.73 Rear axle package. Includes dual piston calper, performance front brake pads, and electronic stability control.

Keep in mind this is a manual transmission!
