I just figured it out - the 2010 GT looks CROSS-EYED with the HID cluster.

I gotta say, too, that the blue Mach I in those photos looks awesome. I'm beginning to think those '71 to '73 Stangs look better now than they did back in the day.

I also wonder if we are supposed to take that as a hint?

I know I did. I started scouring the Internet for cherry '71 to '73 Mach I's after looking at those pics.

The nice ones are fetching serious coin, though. Well, asking...dunno about fetching. <--- The foregoing is not intended to constitute a complete statement of the facts in this matter nor to constitute a waiver of any of my legal or equitable rights or remedies, all of which are hereby expressly reserved and definitely constitute a true statement.

I Never Want To Hear Anyone Comment About the Size of a 71-73 Mustang Again. That Blue Mach 1 Looks Absolutely Small and Sleek, sitting next to both that 2010 V6 and that Shelby






Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm Smmmmmoookeyy





Sunset Gold just looks So Good at Sunset....

That Grabber Mach I is just gorgeous, and holds up well against its newer brethren. <--- True statement.

It's a shame Ford didn't bring the Grabber Blue GT there. It would've been awesome to see it beside that Mach 1. Here's another pic of it from one of his other folders, and another Beautiful Platinum Silver Mach 1.

BTW.....Did you notice both of those Mach 1's have Blacked Out Rocker Panels and Black Plastic Front Spoilers?

Black Rockers and Black Plastic Spoilers are Nothing New for the 2010 Mustang. <---True Statement! Certified with Documentation Even.

One thing I noticed: none of the 2010s had antennas. Either that or they are retractable. If you watch the video closely it looks like there is a hole where the antenna should be like maybe they are retractable. Thoughts?

I seriously doubt that, as power antenna motors are a royal PITA! Too much to factor in, with weather conditions and such, and after time, the motor just dies out. I'm thinking this antenna is like the ones on the Fusion/Focus, where they are rubber coated and flexible, and removable without tools.

Not to mention no-one uses power antennas anymore - they're so '80s.

And you're right, I had two fail on my Celica GTS, though the first one went quite a long time before giving out. Second one didn't last as long, naturally.

I've never had a problem with a power antenna, other than the mast being bent once, which was easily fixed without having to remove the assembly from the fender. My 97 T-Bird's still works fine. I personally like the rear fender mounting on the 2010, and would more than likely install a power antenna on mine when I got it.

I have had two power antennas fail on my Corvettes, and once it was a pain to replace, and the other it was a fairly simple mast replacement. I do much prefer the rear fender mounting location of the new antenna mast on the 2010, but still wonder why they just didn't incorporate the antenna into the glass. My very first car, a 1978 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Coupe had the antenna in the glass and it worked great. Come on Ford, that was last century, surely you can put one in the glass on a Mustang in the 21st Century!

These look kinda interesting. I haven't seen these before on any of the other 2010's. I know the 05's had that little strap thing with the magnet on the bottom of the seat to make it easier to reach the seatbelt, but I think I like this Idea a little better. And Much better than those Loops Ford used to attach to the top of the seats.
