After marketing companies should be able to capitalize huge with front grills for the new Mustang. I'm guessing it will be the most modded part of the 2015 Mustang

Check out this gallery comparing the 2015 to the current model and the original:

Every day I like the 2015 more and more. I think the current model was perfected in the last year or two (whenever they made the last minor tweaks) and its a good looking car, but it still has features that bug me (sits too high, not wide enough, antenna on trunk, faux gas cap on back, etc). I feel like Ford FINALLY made a complete looking Mustang with no tacked on or goofy looking parts.

And those comparing it to Hyundai and other Asian cars, and those saying the headlights and front don't look "American" and don't look "Mustang", have you forgotten these already?

If you get rid of the pony emblem, the 2015 looks much more menacing. I still don't like the headlights, but oh well. I remember hating the 2013 redesign at first as well. The more you see it, the more you get used to it.

The only thing I don't like about the 2015 front end is the turn signals are sitting right on top of the fog lights. I prefer the location of the turn signals on the side of the bumper on the 2014.

And of course they will in time. In the meantime, their Kinetic design theme has proved effective, flexible and good looking -- I wouldn't be in any rush to ditch it.

After owning a 1984, 2006, 2010 and 2012 Mustang and seeing the new direction Ford has gone my next car will be a Stingray. I'm enjoying my 2012 for now. It's perfect except for the tail lights.

I have no interest in the 2015, my '14 mustang is the mustang I always wanted, and now since it's the last year for solid axle's in mustangs, maybe it will even more of a classic...............

Cool

I view the 2015 Mustang design as a more sophisticated design than many previous Mustang designs. There is something to like in individual design features of the new Mustang. I find that I appreciate both the design of the current Mustang and the 2015 Mustang design. To me, the 2015 Mustang design does not obsolete the current Mustang design. I like both designs and think each will pass the test of time.

I definitely agree Larry and couldn't have said it any better, as both designs will indeed be timeless IMO

13 is much more imposing and more importantly it didn't look like every other ford on the lot

The 2011 - 2012 was the best, the 2015 is terrible.

I like the front end with the exception being the placement of the projectors. They are too far out on the headlight assemblies making it look "goofy".

I think some prior will just never be satisfied, but I imagine 6 months after they start to appear on the road more and more people will accept them as the newest member of the family. I really like them, off course I also really like the Fusions, and everything Ford has been doing lately for that matter. I really like the new Ford I've seen emerging in the past few years.

Talking

The car would be perfect if it wasn't for the front end. Change the location of the turn signals and that would be a good start. I'm hoping in my case that European (German) specs will require that Ford place the front turn signal somewhere else compared to where the turn signals are located now.
