I took one look at this car and my first words were: I would sooo drive this car!

 

Now that's the rear (tailights) I want to see!!!

 

I would buy this. PLus tr6060 with direct linkage, 5.0L direct injected, 460hp, forged rod motor.

 

No thanks!

 

I have seen the 2014 production-ready Mustang.


It was in one of my dreams a few nights ago. Actually, they were in my dream. Oddly enough it looked like a mixture between the Guigiaro concept and a foxbody hatchback. Not a mentally exciting combination, I admit, but in my dream it was wickedly appropriate and worked well. I guess the dream was fed by the mentions of futuristic design with smaller proportions...

 

A lot of these renderings look awesome, but keep in mind that the body will be used for the ~$22,000 V6's, too. Those renderings look like supercars, which I am 100% sure we will never see on a low $20k vehicle.

Concept renderings always look cool, until the company realizes the production costs. I remember when the Camaro looked good in drawing..

 

Heres the start of a Cobra version of the car.
The nose is changed (the lower fascia is kinda wonky right now)
Headlights and hood are a bit different and the wheels are different.

 

I absolutely love the front and rear but the body lines are too "swoopy" and not tight or muscular enough for me. It would make a great Hyundai Genesis, and that's not an insult.

 

Doug, did you start with an Aston Martin for that chop?
Looks great.

 

Doug it's basically got the same wheel base and proportions as a DB9. It's just a bit longer and wider in the rear.

No worries Mike it's all good.

 

I'm liking the round headlamp

 

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned before, but with everything pointing to a smaller Mustang, it might not be a bad idea to look at the basic dimensions of the 370Z. It's about 20" shorter in length and 350-400lbs lighter than the latest Mustang. That'd be close to a 10% reduction in size of they could figure a way to shoehorn the 5.0 under the hood.

Edit: Although, the 370Z doesn't really come with backseats... I guess there's that... lol

Topnotch, that's exactly what I have been waiting for someone to do! That car has so much potential if its just toned down a bit.

 

Great 'chop, but as for a Mustang like that? No thank you

 

I think if the grille were wider and the headlights rounder, it might work. I really like the fender line.

 

Retro or not, Euro or not, that is sexy. But I just don't think any low $20k car will ever look like that. Wow, nice rendering. I'd take that over any Lambo any day.

 

I'll take one of those any day!! That thing is sweet looking just as it is now!!

 

I posted that image some time back guess it's been speeding.
