Looks like a BMW Z4 with the new Fusion front end.

TTS197

I think the roof line should be something like this and rear needs to come out.
Sorry guys, I suck at this I wish I knew how to use Photoshop.

Like those changes alot. So far this design has to be my favorite. TN could put the original EVOS headlights on there. Those look like it but seam a bit smaller.

2011 Kona Blue

That photo is bad a$$, awesome. Love it!!!! **** that's sick looking. Omg! Finally someone caught the essence of the next generation stang.

Twin Turbo

All of those are in the Photoshop thread, above

And the first one on the second link is an Aston DBS with a new (Taurus/Evos) nose. Seems they didn't bother to change the sides/back/wheels from the original car!

As for sales in Europe? I attended a customer feedback session in London about 18 months ago. In the studio was a 2010 V6 (there were no 2011s imported at that point), a Nissan 370z and an Audi A5 coupe.

The group I attended with were all current Mustang owners (they were holding similar events for Audi/BMW/Nissan owners) and our feedback was a resounding "keep it "American looking", keep it LHD, we want V8s, keep it RWD, SRA not a problem" etc etc.....basically, don't mess with a winning formular just for us.

I hate to think what the non-Mustang owners would have wanted, but I suspect diesels and cooled-cup holders would have been higher up their list of priorities

If Ford manage to sell 5-10,000 Mustang across the whole of Europe I'd be surprised.

Other than a warranty (personal imports mean the Ford warranty is void) I can't see a benefit in buying an "official" Mustang over a personal import.

Still.......the current Camaro is very soon to be available from (a few) UK dealers soon, but again I can't see them selling many to make it a long term prospect.

Time will tell.

Twin Turbo

Holy moly! If we have to go away from the "retro" look, then THIS is something I could seriously love!

Any chance of a full rendering? (don't want much, do I???!!?)





TN - I have to agree, the revised roofline on yours does give it a "bubble-top", reminicent of the Z4 (a good looking car in its own right, IMO), but doesn't work as well as TTS197s revisions........and his subtle changes to the rear to give it a fuller fastback look....with a bit of butt

Oh, and I see you didn't go for the pillar-less look, TN.....I spy a B-pillar on the passenger side

Top work, fellas. This is the first sketch that's actually giving me hope for the '15MY

I'd love to see a mustang like the one above. Sweet design. A photoshop of that in have would be just right.

..ugly.

NinjaSteffers

Omg! That's worst then the 13's :gross:

The red ones look like they were beat with the ugly tree.

Topnotch

quickness

Twin Turbo

Looking good, TN. I like the headlamps, too, kinda ties it back to the current car a little

I found a few things digging around the Web.

I think this hits it on the head as far as how we all feel.

Got this picture from the Autoguide article.

I'm sure Ford has done market research on what people want in the next Mustang....but remember there have been many mistakes with market research behind them too....how about the Pontiac Aztec? How many Mustang owners do you know who were questioned? I've bought 5 in the past 20 years and owned Fords all my life....I've never been part of any market research....no one has ever contacted me about my opinion. If Ford reads the comments on this web site (and I've read they do).....they will know if they go too futuristic with the 2015 Mustang, it will be a sales disaster.
--------------------------------------
Twin Turbo....thank you. Europeans who wanted a Mustang did so because there was no other vehicle available in Europe like it.
I believe you are correct.....Ford will not sell more than 5,000-10,000 Mustangs in Europe (even fewer in Australia and Asia). Mustang sales outside of North America will be less than 10% of global sales.

Moosetang

I like the progress you're making

Kinyodas

No kiddin' on the market research. I gave me opinion once via Ford.com on the "new" 500. I was told my opinion was "appreciated" but that was about it.

AWmustang

Anybody see the (new?) gallery on Mustang's facebook page?

Edit: Ok, its clearly not new, but I just saw it today so maybe its new to some others.

rodriguez256

Thats pretty nice TN but I prefer the design in post in #1748. But I do like where this is going.

RaceRedGT

I love my 13

Who said they need to sell more than 5-10k outside the US? Maybe that's the plan?

I just don't know how you can completely write off a car when nobody really knows what it looks like yet. These are all just some magazine photoshop editors way of getting his name out there.

I've owned 2 Mustangs and been involved in the Mustang community online for over 10 years, every restyling or upgrade (especially the SN95 => SN197) has brought out the "doom and gloom" crowd, and it's never been true.
