It appears that Ford has listened to everyone and cleaned up the back end, possibly painted the lower rockers .... etc. FMC is not going to completely redesign the car every 4 model years, so sorry that you are disappointed. They went 5 MY's without any exterior changes to the 05-09 cars. This is the only the 4th year and it will be receiving a signicant exterior change and will receive a complete change for 15'.

The car will be revealed on the 15th, so by the time there is enough "sharing" to reveal the car the car will have already been revealed.
Don't waste your time on this Ford marketing ploy.

They should have started this earlier. I can not see more than one picture being revealed by the 15th.

I hated the tail lights on the 10's and 11's at first. They grew on me and look like a combo retro and new. I think many people like the flat look to the tail lights because most mustangs in past years have had the flat look. The new look won't be a bad thing.

To me, the front end of the 2005-09 V6 and GT's are too vertical and upright and looks awkward when viewed from several angles, especially head-on. You guys talk about the big, bulky rear end of the current Mustang; that's funny because that was exactly how I described the front end of my 2007 GT. In my opinion, that's why GT500 front end conversions were so popular for those models. Do I think my 2011's rear end is perfect? Heck no. I do think, though, that its front end is far more aggressive- and better-looking than the 2005-09 model's. The hips look better, too, in my opinion. The 2010-12's interior is FAR superior as well, in terms of design, materials, build quality, etc. In the end, I can look past my 2011's bulky rear end because of all its plusses when compared to my 2007 GT.
That said, I'm glad the rear end issues are being addressed on the 2013 Mustang if, for anything, to mark the end of the non-stop complaining (okay, guys, we get it already). While I think I prefer the front end of the current model, the 2010-12 GT500's front end doesn't look all that bad in person. It's all moot for me, though, as I plan on holding out to see what 2015 brings.

It has gone from 1500 yesterday late afternoon to almost 4300 already. IMO, we will see 3-4 pics by reveal day.

Looks like things are picking up pace...
EDIT: 4894. Just a few more minutes...
Hit the 5k mark. Waiting on the pic now...
Ha! Figures. It's just the Boss pic we all already guessed...
