Scroll down and click on "Download the full press release here" . It is a long but interesting and impressive read.

I'm curious as to how GM will differentiate the special models zl1, z06, etc from the base stingray. Usually they add scoops, gills, etc but this thing already has a ton of those. Maybe the other models will be more understated?

Definitely cleaned up with the various elements and forms being much better integrated than the somewhat haphazard pastiche of the actual car.

Hadn't noticed that rear side reflector on the red car.

**** that thing is ugly. On the blue/black one.

Still love the look overall.

I wonder if this is the type of update we will see in the next mustang. I don't know about you guys but I think the C7 is probably the most dramatic update since the C3 but to me it still looks like a Corvette!

Yes and no.. It will be dramatic, but I think since there are more mustang designs there is more heritage to draw from. From what we've heard it sounds like it will look different but familiar IMO.
