HAHA looks great.

Lots of dudes even in this forum saying the car has been ruined and likely the worst Mustang ever...

Acting like Ford propose to release a VW Beetle, with a Mustang badge...

I cant really tell the difference.

I think it looks great and better than the current model. Love the vents and the silver one.

I just hope they do a right hand drive centre console cover as the off centre drink holder will be a PITA otherwise imo.

Dislike the oversized 5.0 badge on this one too

Ugh still the same ugly rear lights. I don't know what they need to do to fix them, I'm no designer, but they just ruin the car. Doesn't suit the rest of the lines of the car and looks like they finished the car and thought 'shoot, we haven't done the rear lights! A well. Just slap something on and no-one will know'.

Oh and that they would come to Aus.

I agree, I'd love to see the hand brake on the correct side.

So every mustang should come with some sort of coffee club card or an invitation to a barista course instead of an all Ford day or whatever they offered with FPV's

It's getting direct injection, so yes they will all get the power bump.

It has regular port injection too, so at least the carbon build up on valves won't be an issue with this.

Looks better than the current one. Tough and has more cohesion with the old mustang look.
Also looks more futuristic while obviously still a mustang.

Anyone who thinks this is incorrect must have bought the first model with the turned up headlights.

Looks better in proper colours.
In the other thread that links to that filthy yellow one I thought Toyota had released a Camry coupe.

At this stage I still like the current one more, but it will be interesting to see a new one on the road in a good colour. I'll make up my mind after seeing it

I wonder with the emphasis on aero whether they do intend to push the mustang into more motorsport. ie/ Supercars with Penske and PDA.

I quite like the evolution. Looking forward to seeing it on the road and track
