The quarter-window is taped over, and there is also a bar-code decal on there! Thats why the window looks different. The code is probably so they know what cars are checked out when they drive them.

Oh, and that isn't Azure blue. Thats Grabber Blue!!!

EDIT:: Late to the party and what I posted has already been said. Sorry everyone.

Well since they said the couldn't change the antenna without new glass, maybe the glassback allows them to do so??

That Grabber blue looks awesome. All they need is a good stripe package to accompany it...

It's just an old spy shot.
It seems Ford likes to mess with our heads once in a while.

Still not sure if I like it better than my 06. There is some good, some bad. I am not into all that black cladding so far. The grabber blue is kind of cool. But so far I like the vista better. Some of the things in the interior look good. But the square vents, while retro, are not for me.

If they put in a bigger powerplant or really work the suspension it might peak my attention. But it is good to know that if I need to buy another mustang in the next few years that ford is still going to be making a good one.

It doesn't like all the press the Chally and Camro have been getting. IT WANTS BLOOD.

hahaha, right you are my friend.

And after months of nothing but camaro and challenger hype, the mustang is dominating. Almost everyday new shots emerge

Anyone else notice the tacky looking black piece attached to the lower corners of the front bumper? What is that supposed to be? Looks to me like something you would 2 way tape on a Civic

Has anyone noticed that with all the hatred toward the tail lights that these pics have them covered again and from what I can see they look different. No white stripes. Maybe I am way off but this is just me observation.

It looks good, but where will reverse light be?

It look like it is supposed to be an extension of the rocker panel cover and tie in with the gray bezel around the lower air dam. But you are right, it is very poorly executed.

Really liken those wheels though.

Looks to me like an aerodynamic spoiler that visually connects the front fascia opening with the side rocker. I see more Aston Martin DBR9 from the ALMS racing series than a Civic.....I think its cool they're making these little details functional as well.

Overall, pretty cool. It's really not that different. The wheels on both are really nice. Although there are still plenty of classic design cues, it looks to me like they are moving away slightly from a decidedly retro look with the tweaks and going for a more modern approach as much as is possible within a simple face lift.

As for grabber blue, I have always hated it, even on classic Mustangs. I know I am in the minority, but I have just never cared for it.

Now all we need is some engine info! There better be at least a bit of a bump!

Based on what I'm seeing this isn't really thrilling me. The front end looks a little like a '69- which I think is a good thing.
