What DON'T you want to see in the next gen Mustang?
Like the title says, what don't you want to see?
I mean, technology is great so is the internet. What however will happen to cars in 10-15-20 years...when every car will have built in net connectivity and an in cabin camera? How'd you like your car to send speeding reports to the cops? How about the idea of tracking your comings and goings?
It would be cool to be able to tell your car where you want to go and let it drive you there. Or send it to pick up the kids after school. Who knows what innovations will be cooked up in the next 2 decades.
Right now lets talk about the possibly unwanted "upgrades" to our personal vehicles which future technologies will give us.

Expensive standard features that nobody cares about. Make the base model base. Ford typically does fairly well with this.
Making you buy expensive features that are unavoidably attached to options you do want.
Fusion style front end. I don't mind a variation of Evos inspired headlights and front end that is lower and wider, like JohnnyGmachine's render, that still reads unmistakably Mustang with a futuristic/modern flair.
Skinny rear tires. Do not want.
Ridiculous stock ride height and wheel gap. Do not want.
Crappy "leather" seats. I'd spend an extra K for legit quality leather seating.

I don't want the Blind Spot Information System that comes on some Ford vehicles. Just keep the little blind spot mirrors that the current model has and save the money. Having BLIS and the Lane Keeping System and stuff like that is fine for vehicles like the Taurus which may often be driven by people who are oblivious to what's happening around them. But the Mustang is a driver's car and should mostly be driven by people who like driving enough that they are paying attention behind the wheel.

Great ideas. No one however has commented on the idea of internet connectivity. How would you like an integrated ride? How does the prospect of your car reporting you for speeding hit ya? Anyone else see the end of the stoplight wars?

I don want to see my friend in the drivers seat of one. Means I might have to make some upgrades to ensure I beat him 
As long as there are options suited for all drivers (track oriented ones for road racing, tech for the savvy ones, luxury for those who need that, etc) I think it will be good. I love the track package and recaros and the bare bones electronics I was able to get with mine. It's perfect

Internet connectivity can be very bad.... hacking someones car, forcing wot, steering the car left and right.... I think ill be happy with no internet connected cars. Sure they could be smart and make it for only browsing and music and whatnot... but it always leads to full internet connectivity. ..

For me as long as they don't bring back any fox body influences , nothing against fox body cars, but please... Don't.
