Im hoping we dont get a "catfish" grill like Ford seems to be putting on everything else these days. That would ruin it for me.

 

Who are all these people that have seen it? I'm jealous

 

If it is true the 2015 Mustang will have round headlights, I would be all for that. Slit headlights have been overdone. Round headlights would be Bold !

 

I like the 99-04 model mustang I have a 99 and a 05. If they're changing it o hope its an updated version of the 99-04

 

An updated version of any previous model is in fact retro. I like to think of the current cars as a return to Mustang DNA. The new car needs to evolve that DNA via a contemporary look. Look at a current 911 or Aston Martin compared to their 60's counterparts. The family lineage is there but the cars are thoroughly modern. That's what I hope J Mays' past "reset" of Mustang design allows for.

 

Very interesting thread. I think Ford should, and will, tread very carefully in redesigning the stang. It's the styling aspect that will torpedo the car, not the mechanicals, and that's so subjective. No way they'll bungle this important job. It's not like the T-bird, say, or GM's GTO fiasco where they couldn't master this important element of styling. The stang will be properly vetted with focus groups (sigh) and hard-won experience by a dedicated group of pros. I think Ford has supplanted GM, not to mention Chysler, as the premier American manufacturer. They'll be cautious but deliberate and build on their recent successes. All they need is good decisions at the top and they are getting that these days. I don't believe in designing by committee, but rather following the vision of one guy who knows what's what. I think Ford has that.

 

I could see this fly styling wise, but think the low roof/high belt could make for a interior as bad as the camaro if theyre not careful...but it definitely looks like a mustang do wish they would rethink the flatfaced hubcap looking wheels of today...the deeper lip adds a lot IMO.

 

I'm still in love with that Sean Smith side profile. If that's what it means to be non-retro, I say bring it on. Stunning

 

Ewwwwwww!!!!!! :Bleh:

 

I second the vote!

 

Top..

 

Cool, but it doesn't look like a mustang should. Maybe the new focus..?

I think it would look pretty cool if they use the shape of the front, but slant it out to meet the hood. Could make for a really menacing front end if integrated properly.

 

its got some aston to it

 

get to work photoshop gurus

 

Definatly doesn't look mustang...

 

This might be VERY disturbing.

 

Or it could be the best thing that's happened to the Mustang in years... Come on, guys, it's not like Ford's going to slap a Mustang running horse onto a 2013 Fusion and call it a day. How about we wait until we've seen something -- camo'd mules, spy shots, anything -- before we begin *****ing and complaining?

 

Well, maybe they won't turn it into a Fusion, who knows. But in the mid-1970s, they were designing the next-gen Mustang to be a variation on the Futura (luckily that never happened), and of course the Mustang II was a variation on the Pinto.

Hopefully the design team is smarter these days.
