Wow, nice pics. You are seriously the man for making that kind of effort in the name of Mustang enthusiasts everywhere.

If you get video/sound, that will be amazing!

When the lack of traction problem is taken care of the weight and power issues could be addressed. I think better traction would make both the power and weight levels seem like much smaller issues...

If you can't get any traction, when your tires are spinning it really doesn't matter how much power you have, or how heavy you are.

Ford should have invited Bridgestone, Goodyear, and Michelin in for a tire shoot-out. Chevy did this with the ZR1. Instead, it looks like Ford has choosen to carryover the GY F1's, which are a outdated tire. Look at the reviews on TireRack. It would have been nice to have seen 275's up front and 305's in the rear. That would resolve the traction problems with the right tire(hint Pilot PS2's). It would have also improved braking and handling. Then again, decreasing weight would have been nice too

Here are a couple more... Not that great IMO, but I had them and figured I'd post them. If you look close enough the guy has a dummy riding next to him, LOL

At least I thought it was kinda funny

looking good and nice shots, what is in the car that makes it appear there is a passenger or some obstruction? maybe my eyes are fooling me but something is there.

Well, they're either testing sight lines or he wants access to the carpool-only lanes

I can't believe how much more pronounced the hip looks in these pics. It looks very 69/70 to me now.

I like the profile of the front end too. More aggressive.

Thanks God they also god rid of the tacked on cheesy spoiler and have replaced it with a duck tail. Ever since 94 those things have been an eyesore. If a rear end is designed properly it shouldn't need one. Makes the car look cheap.

Those last pictures show the "hockey stick" returning... I thought that design aspect was changing?

whats up with the quarter windows?! I know we have seen the old 1/4s in the 2010's but this doesnt look like a panel. Have we confirmed the original design or might this be the new shape?

it is just masking over the original styled window

if you look close enough you can make out most of the shape under the masking

They use a form of contact paper for the peanut camo. It comes in big shapes, which they cut into a rough body shape as well as around the wheels and windows. The reason the 1/4s are partially covered is because they made a big enough hole for the drivers to see but couldn't be bothered to all out.
