Looks better than I feared, though not as different as I thought it would.

Totally agree

I think the 2015 Mustang is going to be sick! These CAD images are probably pretty accurate but remember it's still just a rendering. Nothing's set in stone and nobody has actually seen the actual car yet without a ton of CAMO!

If the 5.0 looks similar to this, has 460HP from the factory, weights 400 lbs less than the 11-14's, IRS and a shorter wheel base.. You can count me in!

I don't know if it's just me, but it's not very aggressive looking

I'm ok of that, not what I expected, and again 05-09's will keep my ice cold heart.

I think the drawings look out of proportion, at least I hope that's the case. not digging what I see so far.

yes, I agree it's not very aggressive looking, but considering it will be a world car, I'm not surprised.

If it's indeed similar to that rendering, then ford has gotten really lazy on the exterior design and refuses to be edgy. Get away from the old style and give us something new.

The underlying engineering might be a different story, though.

Black plastic rockers? Really? What is with Ford's addiction to keeping some version of the diaper concept alive. Blows my mid-western mind.

I'd say this is 80-90% right. It gives us a decent idea of what to expect, but isn't entirely accurate. Let's see someone tackle a full interior render now.

Needs hips and more edge. I really hope they don't come out with a more subdued version from the start on purpose, just so they can spice it up with refreshes later.

They need to come 100% from the start and improve on that with refreshes. Don't make me wait 5 more years for hips, like the 05 redesign.

I love the taut athletic look of this rendering and the proportions are outstanding, as are the wheels. If the grill was more inset and the headlights tweaked a bit, it would add a lot of aggression

I hope the final design is this clean/uncluttered. People who are so inclined can always add scoops and spoilers if they wish to embellish the design.

Not impressed but not disappointed ... I'd love to see a floating pony grille like the sn95 mach 1's with that large opening - not a huge fan of the honeycomb but I'm sure this is only 1 of 3 or 4 trim levels.

This is a base render. Plenty of details to see before we can really judge it.

Looks good to me. the ride height is going to be off since its a render. Also it's obviously the base model, so there's room for more aggressive features. I'm liking the black lower rocker panels, makes for a nice lean stance. Finally nice to see some design hints of the rear fascia. The side quarter area looks like it makes for nicer and better proportioned side scoop designs. Also like the fastback look, with less horizontal trunk area. So far so good. I'm sure scoops, graphics, wheel options, GT and higher fascia treatments will make it look more aggressive.

If that's it, then we will see the end of the Mustang within 5 years. That's the most god-awful abomination of a Mustang I think I've ever seen.

Doesn't look too much different than the current stang. I would take the 13-14 looks wise over this.

Visually shrinks the car, you see it from top to bottom but only the colored parts register.
