I really like DIB on the gt500's but for some reason not quite as much on gt (cali specs excluded, those look sweet) and even less on the v6's. Kona however was an awesome color when clean but showed dort super easy.

I also like ruby red and ingot silver. I just wanna see a picture of each color way with each rim option to really make my choice

I'm not a fan of the new design... but that black looks pretty **** good. If I was shopping, I might have to go back on my 'no more black vehicles' for the fourth time.

They definitely look similar to the Camaro's hips...

Here are a few more shots from different angles:

Looks like a non-track pack car.

Could be shipping blocks were not taken out. Looks higher than previous pics of that car.

Looks 'ok' to me but still not impressed. It does look like a mustang to me but some of it's details just don't work for me. The headlights. The way the sides swoop in so dramatically. the weird tail lights. 100 pictures and many colors but it still doesn't appeal to me. I'm sure it will sell really well though.

Ditto. I'm trying to like it. Some of the details just look silly and like it's trying too hard while others are plain base looking. It's hard to explain what I'm trying to say.

Yes Ford appears to have thrown in all the ingredients from the past models but that doesn't mean it makes a good stew.

Too much and not enough going on with this cars design.

Looks great. Personally I love the wheels. And the rear wheel gap at least isn't worse than on the previous yrs.

Those wheels look like a modern interpretation of the Halibrand Cobra wheels..

I like em...not what I would choose but I get it.

This is part of it.

I'd say even in this shot that the wheel gap looks wider though.

Edit: On second thought, maybe it's just the "for Buffalo winters" version




@@AMEREPLACE@@, on Flickr

I will add all of my shots to the first post to make things easier to compare.
That might not be the 5.0 V-8 under the hood...could be the lighter V-6 engine causing it to sit higher on the front wheels...especially if they wouldn't open the hood...or so I was told at one location by a presenter. Remember, these are pre-production display samples, not the real thing yet.
