Boy they really cheapened it up compared to the first year. I wonder if the price went down any. I wish they would sell that bumper fascia and the Deep Draw Hood.

Nope, price is the same.

All the colors the 2013 Mustang GT comes in you can have made into a GT 350. GHIG is awesome in person.

I'm thinking his reasoning is that the rear bumper is just a stock GT bumper with a GT500 lowere rear diffuser. Not a custom limited production rear bumper. The front looks so insane then to back it looks plain.

I am not a fan of the grill screen. It looks like something a screen door company made. It's pretty tacky.

I agree, it's a bit ugly to be honest.

at least so far it looks better than the previous GT350, which I found to be quite ugly

Gotta agree that it's looking kind of cheapened up a little bit. The rear looks just like any other mustang out there now. That's what i liked about the 11-12 GT350's was that it was distinctive from any other Mustang. Interesting that they are using the same front end from the 12's instead of using the new 13 front end. Im sure when it's finished it will be great but so far kind of disappointed.

That whole front is different than the 2010/12 cars. Look closer they aren't the same. The GT350 mimics the first 65/66 GT350s with the small upper intake and the lower valance appearing cut out to let air onto the radiator.

No joke. You can see the waves in the hood in the pics. The grilles are terrible. I am sad to see this, as well as all the cheesy 60's badging just doesnt look right on the new car. Are those RTR wheels?

Granted yes there are differences between the two front bumpers but honestly not much.

2013


2011


To me it just appears that not much creativity went into designing an all new GT350, sort of piggybacked off the previous model design. I do like the classic grille and emblems. To me, if I were in charge of designing the car I would have put a little more creativity to capture the 2013 design que's and also making the rear end different from every other Mustang out there.

I must have miss understood your post. I don't see why Shelby changed anything on the GT350 from 2011. It was fine the way it was and everything I can see just made it cheaper looking. I would NOT under any circumstanses use the GT or GT500 front end on the GT350 as that totally misses the point of having a GT350.
