Had to say i kinda like it. Modern-retro, but Evos-y.

Me no like - it looks too smooth, too refined, more like a bubble with blurred lines - and it has no end. Mustang needs that 'edge' - the grit, something craftily out of line, something outwardly away from the rest. This one looks to me like it wants to blend in.
I can't see Mustang on that thing. Maybe Probe, but not Mustang.

Topspeed has this render too.

Its more subtle, I like the other one, but I also love my '11.

I like the aggressive styling. If you haven't looked at the topspeed version its more toned down but still had similar features. I think what ever they do its gotta be bold for a change this big.
I think the '15 will look a lot better than the rather crude MT Photochop hack. The TopSpeed version looks a bit more like what I presume the '15 will look like, though still off a bit.
The Evos is a car that looks much better in person than pictures, and I think it looks great in pictures. On all of these Evos-derived renders/speculations, I would guess the nose is too short (to fit a longitudinal V8) and that a longer nose alone will do much to retain the trademark Mustang long nose/short deck DNA and give the basic Mustang design an inherently more powerful look without relying on a bunch of cheap and cliched "power/aggressive" stylistic tack-on elements to busy-up a mediocre underlying design ("Moar scoops! Moar spoilers! Moar, bigger, moar...!").

I must agree. TERRIBLE. Looks like they keep axing off the *** end. What gives? Starting to think seriously, good bye stang - hello camaro. Wife's 2010 Camaro SS looks way killer than this toy I have seen in pics. I guess I will have to resort to a used GT 500 :-(
