2010 Mustang Pics at Road America

I was there as well. Some insights.
The mirrors look to be the same ones that are on the edge. They are even bigger than our current "truck" mirrors. At least they added painted caps to them. Sorry MWAG.

The camo covers are well padded, so you can't feel anything.

The grill had a running horse emblem, so this was probably a GT. Didn't sound too much different than my 05 GT.

Wheels seemed huge, and so did the brakes. Might just be the black paint and it seems like the wheel wells are smaller.

One of the Ford guys squawked at the driver to let off the brakes so as not to draw attention to the brake lights.

Just noticed the honeycomb is in the entire lower grille...
I'm liking it a lot...just want to see the rest.

What about the brake lights?
What was so different for them to now want to have them on?

Wheels look like 18s or 19s?

Really don't know. I don't think they are LED or anything.

Great pics, man! I'm really, really loving the more-aggressive-looking front end! And, to second Boomer, I like the honeycomb in the lower grille, too. I'm assuming that this is the V6 model because of the single exhaust pipe.

Awesome!

Honestly, you'd think a small mob would be able to overtake those guys, rip the camo off, snap the pics, and get away. This is probably why they don't run these things in the ny metro area. We don't put up with "waiting".

It looks like the front is going to be pretty sweet. The taillights aren't looking any better with time! Come on Ford lets give them the axe already.

I'm sorry, but that is retarded. What is the point, and why did they use a base model?

I guess it's like they said, to steal some of the Camaro's thunder, but couldn't they have thought of a better way to do it like maybe releasing a couple of subtle exposed pics or a few specs or something???

Ridiculous.

The tailights look great! Especially lit up. I just think the hole in the camo isn't big enough for us to see all of it. Imagine this pic with the third bar lit up toward the outer edge of the car. That's going to look like three separate lights, man. Kick ***!

Topnotch, maybe you can do a quick Photoshop based on this picture?

I assume you mean the dash is out of focus, not that the dash is "out of a Focus".

hopefully sooner...by sept I'd hope.

As for the tails.. I think they'll look REALLY cool at night with the space between them.
Would be neat to see how the reverse looks at night as well.
2 vertical white sticks on either side.

Look forward to getting sequentials again as well

I'm with Boomer. I think once we get to see the whole picture (can't happen soon enough!) the tail lights will look good...

I am still not sold on the front blinkers, but I really dig the aggressive looking front end.
