Cool More Spy Pixs

Boy. Once the spy picture flood gates open up, here comes the 2010 Stang pictures! Fun to look at and study. Still don't like that big ugly lower rear valance piece. Is this the new GT-500? CalStang

2 things I dont like

1. The antenna should be gone, I think it looks even WORSE on the decklid fender than on the front fender. We are looking at a whole decade of the best auto technology in the 21st century??? They need to incorporate it between the headliner and the windshield.

2. The rear lower valance, ie. the black part

and I dont know about any of you, but this popped into my mind when I saw that Shelby front end...enyone else think of this too?

I can't decide if I like it. The only thing I am sure on is the wheels. They look great. I don't get the hip. It's in the door Why bother?

Just tried to compare the 2 ... i'm wondering if the C-pillar being present makes that an illusion? or is it actually slightly smaller?

If I remember correctly, halfway up the C-pillar on the coupe is part of the rear quarter panel, so that could be the case, that they have the same door swoop/start of the hip, but it goes higher on the coupe.

I like the hood. It almost seems to have the front similar to the old KR.

What about the 'cowl' hood we saw pics of? It doesn't look like that car has it.

The car you're looking at here is the Shelby. The "cowl" hood shown a few weeks ago is for the lesser GT and, I'd assume, V6 models.

You can see said hood here:

Agree with others, the wheels rock! I like to look of the GT500 better than the GT for sure

DOH! I forgot the 500 has a different hood. Guess I didn't expect the two hoods to be that different either.

Looks like it is squinting at me. They will have to do some serious chassis and power train work to get me interested. Without added weight.

Nice to see pics of the new cars, but what is up with the vents on the hood. Plus what is with the non body colored skits and bottom bumper???? Make those pieces body colored and send those open pit hood vents to the drawing board. At least the GT500KR got the hood vents right!!!!

The antenna doesn't bother me, but I am old school anyway.
What it that dodge truck grill doin' on top of the bumper?
I hate the black valance stuff because it is too big. The old smaller stuff looks okay.

If those 'hips' were any slimmer, she'd be a boy.
