I was wondering about when should we expect to see a concept of what the 2010 Mustang will be a an autoshow. Will there even be an "unveiling" of a refresh at all...or so we have to wait untill Jan 2009 to see the 2010 model lines?

Boomer

Someone mentioned something will be shown at the 2008 NAIAS in Jan.

Concept or production...
Would think concept this year, production in 09 ... or would Jan production shots be too close to a release in April-Sept as a 2010

Twin Turbo

I reckon you're right. I can only see them producing a concept car if it looks significantly different to the current car. If it is, then something in Detroit in Jan '08 would fit.

If it's "just" a facelift, I reckon they'll just show the production car a few months prior to going on sale.

Its possible that the G-Stang WAS the concept...

codeman94

Thats what I was thinking....but the production version would look about 15% like it....

Boomer

Yeah, but look at the Mach3 concept and compare it to the 94
Probably in teh same vein....

codeman94

yep...pretty close to the s197s with the 05 concept.....you can see the resemblence....but not really close at all.

GTJOHN

Yep, I was told that the 09/10 will be shown in January. I am skeptical myself, but my source said this is coming from his relative that is a "new design/product" engineer at Ford.

I put very little faith in something said by someone's uncle's, cousin's, best friend's, college roomate's, girlfriend's, hair stylist.

GTJOHN

Agree! I have to see it, to believe it.

Boomer

Well, we'll see it by 2010 i"m sure

Indystang

I would hope Ford would release the concept before the Camaro gets out for sale so some new buyers might just give the New 09-10 Mustang a second look before plunking down some money for the 09 Camaro or Challenger.

Boomer

That's probably why we'll see something this Autoshow season

Here's hoping

Twin Turbo

Absolutely. I'm sure Chevrolet will be showing the production version of the Camaro at Detroit in January, so it'd be great if Ford could take away a little of the limelight by showing the 09/10.

codeman94

...or....they would not do it then... afraid that no one would notice it with all the press the Camero will get.

Boomer

Chance they'll have to take

boduke0220

please please dont ever say that again.

boduke0220

well i've never tohught about it. but what if the GT500 facia becomes standard and thats the face lift?

Boomer

Try not to think again

GTJOHN

Ford needs a Mustang at the Detroit Auto Show that is a bit more exciting then the 2008.5 Bullitt.
