That's a nice looking take on the Mustang, with exception to the tail... It doesn't look so good with the black moldings and what appears to be a 2-bar brake light as opposed to the 3-bar.

Rear end sux, spoiler sux, front end - eh, need more angles. I DO like how they put the gauges on the dash though. I was wondering how the lack of real gauges would be addressed by the aftermarket. Seems to fit in nice. Thanks for the pics.

thanks topnotch, been sittin here like everyone else waiting for this baby.
I gotta say I like the rear, funny how it has allot of S7 design in it, how the rear ties together and such,
But I still don't think its as good as I expected it to be, but its sure drasticly more modified than any of the others, ie roush steeda and soforth
I'm thinking I need to make a WTD version, my own take on this car.
Things I think allot of the manufactures are not spending time is the head lights and the shape between the headlights. Something different there would be nice, not just a new grill and logos. I don't like the turn signal, its to choped out of the existing design.
The ground effects are better than most, but I was hoping not so much S7 in some areas.
I would also love some 1600x1200 pic's I'm sure they will pop up sooner or later, and more more more.. hahaha

I like it except for the rear spoiler and the grill. The rectangular holes don't flow like the factory ones do. A ducktail into that rear end would have looked better...just my opinion.

I actually see alot I like. I love what they did with the interior, and I kinda like the Panel between the Tail Lights, however i think they should have left the Tribars. I kinda like the Extended Rear Edge on the Trunk and the way the Rear Bumper line carries up around the top edge without any real protrusion, Kinda reminds me of the execution of the Vette's rear end though.
I don't like the Mini Hockey Stick they used on the side of the rear bumper though. The Hockey Stick/C Scoop on the 05, Visually carries all the way up and across the front of the quarter window and then follows across the top edge of the rear window, and is resolved so to carry it through to the rear bumper doesn't make any sense from a design standpoint, to me at least.
I also don't like the Spoiler sitting on the top of the trunk and rear fenders like that. It would have looked much nicer if they would have made the extended lip on the trunk into a ducktail, to me.
I don't see why everyone feels the need to add so many randomly placed and executed Scoops, Ducts, and Extractors. I must say though that I like the Saleen better than he rest of the "Tuner" cars so far.
