From what I have read, executives at Ford have already stated that they want to make a car that shows that the Mustang can be around for another 50 years. With everything they said, it seems like there is no chance to get a highly retro car in 2014. It will surely have a lot of design elements that scream mustang, but in an overall package that looks newer.
On a different note, some of the concept drawings on this thread have really small windows. For me, however neat the design is, if I can not see out of the car because of a lack of windows, I will not buy one. Mustang owners already rightly make fun of the Camaro owners about the windows. I want function first. Give me smaller, lighter, but with just as much space for people, and big windows that show me the entire road, and I will be happy.

Aesthetically, I think these high-waisted, slab-sided designs tend to make the cars look pudgy, heavy and ugainly, hardly the traits I'd want a performance car to convey.
I hope the days of hiked up beltlines and the glass area of a pair of bi-focals fades into history.

I do like that one. The kicked up window belt line is an interesting variation that I like which does remind me of early 70's Ford Fastbacks. The swoopy front fenders that rise above the hoodline is nice too.

I'm liking it. New designs always take awhile to grow on me, but so far so good bud

HOLT CR*P!!!! I think you might have something. Now that is a "EVOLUTIONARY" design. Not sure about the quarter window but could grow on me. Can you do a front elevation or front three quarter.
But it has a door scallop, two doors, triple bar tail lights and a long nose.. Might be to retro. LOL
