A nice set of hips! That's one thing I think would be a great addition to the looks of the stang. If you notice, the line on the side profile goes straight from the from to the back:


I think it'd be nice to see it with some hips like these:


yeah, the Dodge Charger get the hips but not the Maustang!, go figure!

Yeah the Charger gets hips and a sloping fast back and a forward leaning gril..... pretty much anything to make it look LESS like a four door sedan and more like the coupe they want it to be..... that's what you gotta do when you basically try and change around the pre-existing platform of the 300..... :scratch:

Everything is pure speculation at this point but I think alot will depend on how the sales figures remain.

If there is a sudden drop in sales (obviously there we be some) and they believe MOPAR will be coming out with a Challenger/Cuda' we'll probably see more than just paint and wheel upgrades/changes.

"Hips" may not be asking too much, doubt that it'll effect the ridigity of the chassis. All of the "hard points" will remain (core support, firewall, probably roofline, etc) simply because of costs and all required with Government crash testing.

I don't think Ford will let it get "stale", especially if there is a real competitor.
