    Anybody Think The New Mustang Looks Ugly?

    Isn't the 2015 the first Mustang that does NOT have fake scoops, etc? I don't see a lack of power either, the cheapest / least powerful one comes with a 300HP V6 - the 99 - 04 GTs started with 260HP... It looks to me their doing the opposite of what happened back then, making a car that is...

    Anybody Think The New Mustang Looks Ugly?

    f1seb - That's the guard colour right? It's a little green I've noticed. I would like to see a fastback in magnetic, the shots of the vert make the plastic bits (front end mostly) look solid. I think magnetic will be a very sophisticated / mature colour, not as outrageous as the red or yellow...

    My Personal Pics From Pri 2015 Mustang

    Oh yes, this is how I see past it being a little big / heavy for a truly monsterous sports car. In fact this is the same thinking that makes me think the turbo 4 makes SO much more sense than the V8. 90% of the time, I'm not going to notice a difference in the drive, except a little more fuel...

    Anybody Think The New Mustang Looks Ugly?

    Really? I felt the opposite - it sounded to me like he really liked what they'd done.

    Anybody Think The New Mustang Looks Ugly?

    I dunno, to me it looks more like a Mustang (67-70 is my "true Mustang" if there is such a thing...) than the current boxy generation! 67-70 were sleek and sexy, current gen is well, I paused and had to think, all I can think of is "blocky". I don't mean to annoy anyone with my opinion, and I...

    Anybody Think The New Mustang Looks Ugly?

    I think you mean since '69 ;) I too think it looks great, then seeing the blue one at the auction - wow, it is looking classy!

    Could Use Some Help With Our Show Cars Brake System - Thanks.

    Oh and my Harley was having a squishy brake lever - calipers needed rebuilding, pistons were stuck in the seals and retracting back into the caliper after each brake application - maybe a similar thing is happening here? I replaced the master cylinder thinking that was the problem as it only...

    Could Use Some Help With Our Show Cars Brake System - Thanks.

    I've never looked at how ABS systems work but I imagine there is some sort of bypass valving in it, maybe it is plumbed or wired incorrectly (so only noticeable when ignition is on) or just plain faulty?

    My Personal Pics From Pri 2015 Mustang

    They did say the weight would be saved "across the board" which I would have thought meant all models but I agree it doesn't look like weight was saved. It will be interesting to see if weight was saved, and how much lighter the turbo is than the 5.0. I'm a little (note: little) disappointed...

    My Personal Pics From Pri 2015 Mustang

    I do like the rear without a wing. Is the wing optional on the current GT?

    2015: "fusion" Front Fixed With Photo Edit. What Ya Think?

    http://www.autoevolution.com/news-g-image/2015-ford-mustang-rendered-with-various-body-kits-photo-gallery/159351.html#sjmp I'm liking some of these renders better than the factory look though!

    2015: "fusion" Front Fixed With Photo Edit. What Ya Think?

    I agree with this pretty much totally. People are quick to dismiss that which they don't understand, it is natural, but give it a chance to soak in all the little details about this car and you start to really appreciate how it is a winner. Of course style is always subjective and for me this...

    One Thing I Hate With A Passion On The New Mustang...

    I don't know - that seems to be the style of the time - have the "lip" black. I think the sideskirts look like they do something with minimal show. I get the impression from the bottom profile and the skirts , front / rear lips that the aero under the car is pretty well-engineered. I would like...

    2015: "fusion" Front Fixed With Photo Edit. What Ya Think?

    I think the new iteration looks very svelte and mature - it looks like it is in a new class now - up there with the BMWs. To this end I think if you got one with its independant rear suspension and the 300hp turbo 4 you would easily forget it is a mustang, but in a good way, as in thinking it is...

    2015: "fusion" Front Fixed With Photo Edit. What Ya Think?

    Yep I do like the 15 front end! I almost always don't like new car looks when they first come out. After a while they grow on me, this has grown on me fairly well and pretty quickly too. I don't have a great deal of imagination sometimes, and I feel things can almost always be better - I can't...

    The 2015 Mustang Unveiling

    I'm quite interested in the 2015(+) Mustang - can't wait to get a factory-built RHD Mustang and for half the price they are usually imported and converted (to RHD). Too bad it'll be late 2015 before we can start ordering though (Australia).

    My Mustang with Air Ride and big billet wheels

    Man I love white - works really well on that car! Also the girls hair reminds me of a horses tail. That doesn't really sound good lol but it fits with Mustangs.

    My Mustang with Air Ride and big billet wheels

    I for one want to see more, it is hard to imagine how long it has been! My Mustang dreams are on the back-burner now, pretty sure I'm going to buy a house first, but StangNet sure helps ease the pain!

    The Reenmachine DOHC '67 Shelby Clone Convertible Progress

    Wow I can't believe it's been years! I remember when it was being built, like it happened yesterday. It is good to see it still in the hands of someone who appreciates it, especially considering its uniqueness.
