With the GTR, that is not a production model, it was stripped down and components are in different places rather than the GT, such as the fuel tank, which is before the axle, which I would think is the main reason why they cannot develop a side exhaust. From the pictures (I have not seen the GTR in person), it looks like the side exhaust was much higher also, not through the side skirts like the SN95 platform.

I hate to say it but the big mouth opening reminds me of what they do with imports. I don't feel it belongs on a Mustang.

In the rear view picture it looks like it does have side exhaust, though it is totally missing from the forward view. WTF is Roush thinking? At the very least they need to fire their graphics guy, if not the head designer. I work as a web developer and I wouldn't have job for long if I put something that look as bad as that on our website.

Here's the rear view:

Then I think you are a @ $ & % EN DUMBASS!! Or at least, living up to your screen name. The back view isn't all that bad, it kinda reminds me of the current Saleen but that front end is terrible.

The designs do look like crap, but you can't polish a turd. There isn't much there to start with.

Oh yeah, it's a turd alright. It's so unfortunate for Ford that they've only received 200,000 requests for information about the '05 on their website!

Why, or why didn't someone from Roush visit this board earlier. There are soooo many better chops on this site (and others), at least we could have done a better job to get an idea of what it would look like. And, we could tell them what a horrible design it is to begin with.

With some tweaking, it might not be all that bad, but they really need to tone it down with all the scoops and holes and stuff.

Oh well, lets hope they are just testing reactions before they go into production.
At least one can hope.

Now, lets see what Saleen and maybe even Steeda have in store.

I will withhold comment untill it is FOR REAL. Photo's, or drawings never look real close to real life. Remember all the photochops of the '05 before it really came out. Big differances.
