This was originally posted in the Color Thread but I think it was more appropriate here...
When I see an Accord Coupe the cars I think of are BMW 3/4 Coupes, and Mercedes C-350 Coupes, because they share a lot of similar design traits. But looking at Chaz's rendering I dont get that at all. The Accord, BMW3/4 and C-350 all have taller Greenhouses with Much Larger, More Elongated Quarter Windows.
When I see Chaz's render or think about the Greenhouse of the 2015/S550 Mustang I think more Aston Martin DB-9 than any of those 3 above.
As for the Hatch, I seriously wish the 2015 was a Hatch. I've said it before, it would make it more Versatile and Useful and would improve it's credibility around the world, where Hatches are More Desirable. Sadly I think it will not be a Hatch.
.
Every time i look at this i keep seeing the accord windows, just a shade sexier. And that not necessarily an in sult to the render cuz i really like how the accord coupe looks. Very sharp. The roofline could extend a touch further to really pull off the fastback look though.
Another though is what if they were to make a hatch in order to raise its popularity and practicality especially to the euro crowd. It would appeal to the younger generation as well since havin room to toss our junk into is actually a big plus. (Im with the young crowd) although havin a normal trunk is perfectly fine with me and fits more with Mustang design

I think if the render had a sunken belt line it would look better, that way the hips would look like they are higher up and more pronounced.

"Hips" Don't have to be Verticle to be More Pronounced. The 2015's Hips are going to be Much More Pronounced than the 10-14's, it's just that They're going to be More Sculpted In and Horizontally Pronounced. More Sophisticated and Muscular, than Boy Racer. I think Ford is trying to Avoid the Cartoonis Look of the Camaro.

I don't think I'd call the early Mustang's beltline with vertical hips "Boy Racer." IMO what all of the cars you posted share in common is a boring beltline. Looks too sedanish and bland. You shouldn't need a certain, limited viewing angle to see it has hips. I've warmed up to the front end, but the lame, straight, beltline is just too plain. The side profile reminds me of how I felt about the last GTO. Great performance, but man, that's a bland, boring looking profile.

As for all of the Cars I posted looking Boring and Sedanish, Maybe that's because the Top 3 are all Coupe Variants of Sedans, but I'm Sorry, there is Nothing Boring or Sedanish about This Car...
And There Won't be Anything Boring or Sedanish about This Either...

I wasn't saying the original Mustang's Hips were Boy Racer, I was talking more about the Hips on the Current Camaro, but those Verticle Hips of the original 65-68 Mustang's would look out of place and dated on a modern car. Not to mention that those vertical hips would only add to the limited visibility out of the quarter windows if they were incorporated on the 2015, just like the Hips of the Camaro add to it's horrible Blind Spots.

The grill opening on the Mustang, especially when compared with the WRX, looks way too big. I picked up the latest issue of Car & Driver and have fallen in love with their render and sincerely hope the real thing matches that look.
