I don't care what anyone says. Sure, some stuff isn't as perfect as it could be but this shot:
SELLS this redesign for me. I still can't afford one (yet), but dayum!

I see that the put the prop rod on the opposite side this time. I think the CAI looks a little goofy, but who cares right? Everyones eventually gonna get a CAI/Tune

Yuck, looks like thy are using the same shifter hole and bezel for the stick and automatic or something, it looks really funny in this shot...
And I do not like those buttons on the console.
What the heck is up with copying that goofy droopy eyed Challenger look?
Two thumbs up for the automatic temperature control and the audio controls on the steering wheel, it only took them five years to catch up with the creature comforts in my 2005 F-450....

I am skippin' all y'all's comments. Sorry. 
Oh, and the opinions expressed below are simply mine, you can take it or leave it, I just desired to comment.
First, the intro video? *sweet*!!!
Now the car:
It's not bad. Not great... but not bad. Better than I thought it'd be. Overall, similar to the 05-09, of course,
The good:
1) The dash is pretty.
2) The console is gorgeous.
3) The seat belt B pillar arms are a welcome addition, you ask me... but only on the driver side? 0.o
4) The glass roof looks better from inside.
5) I like the seats... I may have to get a set.
5) Nav unit is sweet.
6) Likin' the pedals. See 4 above.
7) The door panels are very nice... *really* like the chrome door handles, and the inner panel design is great.
8) The front clip looks fairly nice. I kinda like it. Good cues on it. But see below, it's not a wholehearted endorsement...
9) Lovin' the back end overall... didn't think I would, honestly... but...
10) I MUST HAVE THE FAUX CAP. I will deal with no trunk lock.
11) **NO FAIR**. I want a rear mounted, angled backward shorty antenna too. **** them.
12) As I can probably safely assume this is a Sirius (or maybe XM now?) enabled system... the absence of a hockey puck on the trunk is quite welcome.
13) I love the headlamp/turn signal assembly. That is really sweet.
14) The entire lower 'lip' being bumper black is exactly right. Period.
15) Lastly... Airbag on the steering wheel I want, because the emblem is cool. I bet it bolts right on up to mine.
The bad and/or indifferent:
1) The taillamps are ugly. I think the upturn could possibly grow on me, but seriously, the backup lights in the middle parts are frickin' awful.
2) The grille sides need to be... something other than thick *** plastic. I dunno what. But it looks unfinished. I also don't like the upper part being as prominent as it is.
3) The lower lip of the lower grille doesn't need to be body color, it looks weird.
4) Wasn't a fan of the original 05-09 fogs, but these cut off at the top ones? Uber stupid. At least the others were round.
5) Wheels are ok... but not great.
6) Surprised the GT emblem didnt' get tweaked. Or at least italicized: GT
7) Coulda done without the burnout leftovers in the 360 view... Heh.
8) I dunno what's in the middle of the spoiler, a trunk lock or a camera, but... it's a little distracting... and could be complicated should one wish to swap it out.
9) Never a fan of the body color mirror caps, so I obviously am still not. Paint the whole thing or leave it black(ish).
10) Back to the interior, the "all in one" Chevy type turn signal/wipers/washers/motorized toothbrush stick on the left is not cool looking. Definitely not symmetrical being all on one side too.
11) While I'm all for nav systems... the buttons on the center dash area are *really busy* looking. You people need to take 2 hours to familiarize yourselves, ok? Thanks.
12) Coulda done without the weird flairs at the end of the silver steering wheel spokes.
13) What's with the extra dip on the center top of the dash? Is that... naw... surely it's not a hideaway compartment for sunglasses... perish the thought. Bad idea.
14) Ok, that hood needed a bit more attention to being viewed. It's pitiful that artwork didn't get shown well. Boo.
Ok, that's the nitpick session. About equal parts of "SWEET" and "EWWW", so overall, they should sell a pretty decent amount.
However, for *myself*, there's too much to change to make me happy with it, so Awesome is in no danger... well, she never was, really. Only car I ever got a name tag for, so I'm not parting with her anytime soon, dig?

Well, now wait a minute. There's some funny stuff going on. The stuff in Autoblog looks CGI, and they show a hockey puck and a nub where the shorty antenna goes. That, and the hood looks *awful* in those shots... Man, I'm confused now... I think I'm just gonna go stare at Awesome and get my head straight about this whole Mustang thing.

I always cringe when I see someone with an S197 that put the door guards on- and now Ford as built them right in.
