You misspelled 'Probe-E' up there.
I've seen it up close. For a car it's nice. For a sports coupe 2+2, it's wrong. For the use of 'Mustang' at all, it's an abomination. And those turn signals are horrid. Just... why.
The only, ONLY car I've ever considered for a 4 door Muscle Car is the '99 Charger R/T Concept. That was awesome. I woulda had one of those, four doors or not. Because it looked the part and all the things.
This thing? No. Just no. Stop promoting it, it's awful for Mustangdom.
They changed the Ford Five Hundred back to Taurus, they need to do that kind of name thing for this, pronto.
/Off my lawn and all that.
//Or... maybe they're gonna change the Mustang to something else, and this is a long con.
///The Probe is comin' back, y'all.

Could not agree with @houtex more. Such a disappointment after all the hype.
Ford's electrify "the signature vehicles from the last century" commercial talks about how proud Ford is to take where we are and make it into where we are going. They may have taken the name from the 60's head turner and given it to their new Cross-Over, but it is a huge slap in the face to the car that still carries the Mustang name. If the EV version of the Mustang looked anywhere near as good as the EV F-150 Lightning it would be a huge success for the Namesake. But no... Ford has to convert the longest running American Sports car (Fords words) to a 4 door cross-over that looks top heavy. It is not built in the heritage of the Mustang I know and love. Why would you name a family sedan after a sports car? Just a way to degrade the original and make sales. It really more resembles the Ford Probe than a true Mustang. Way to ruin tarnish the 50+ years of the most successful American sports car. The Mach-E would have been the same somewhat success it is now with any other name besides Mustang and preserved the heritage of the beloved Mustang. Probe-E is very fitting.
