For now, until we see full pictures and different models (I believe this is just the base model), I will say I like certain things on it.
Overall they progressed it nicely but like all new models there is some love/hate in that design.

Threw up in my mouth.

Hated this body style when it first came out, thought it was kind of getting better, but clearly it's not.

Just like the Camaro, Charger, Challenger, and Corvette - they may have the performance, but they're all as ugly as sin and I hope they all burn with their creators.

I like it so far. Apparently that's the base trim. Interested in actually seeing one in the flesh.

Pretty excited about the 200lb weight reduction, too. 3,400 lbs is a lot better than 3,600. I think the effective weight reduction over the current model will actually work out to more than 200lbs since they're cutting out a bunch of unsprung weight.

Love/Hate is the best way to describe it. I think that's a good thing and that's what most designers aim for. It's like the Z... you either love the styling or you hate it. That's usually what makes for a good design.

Here is a screencap that was pulled from the Autoweek youtube channel showing the base model:

Looks really nice for a base, IMO.

Wonder if they are going away from the center fog lights finally.

I've been waiting to see how this would turn out. My first impression is that it's not as good as I hoped, but not that bad. I like it a lot better than the current model though.

I like the back end, would look mean with some nice wide tires on it. Side looks decent but the front end looks too Taurusey.

Cmike2780 12-03-2013 04:16 PM

I don't hate it, but nothing about it makes me want go out and get one. The weight reduction is great to hear, but it's still no lightweight. The design looks confusing. It wants to be a sports car but ends up looking like a "sporty" coupe. Ford didn't go far enough in either direction and we end up with a muscle car wearing yoga pants. It needs to be more Ford GT and less Ford Fusion.

m4a1mustang 12-03-2013 04:24 PM

Well the Mustang is a "pony" car which mixes sports car with muscly coupe. If it went too far one way or the other it wouldn't be a Mustang IMO.

Since this is the base I'm really interested in seeing the GT. Should be more aggressive.

The special editions are supposed to be really interesting... Flat plane crank, 5.5ish liter twin turbo for the gt350 variant. Carbon ceramic brakes etc.

NS370Z 12-03-2013 04:40 PM

Come on Nissan, build us a kick *** 425 HP, 3000 lb monster Z. And no, not a gtr.:tiphat: so I don't have to buy a 2015 vette.

I wonder if the Ford stick shift will be made in China still.

b15 12-03-2013 04:47 PM

So the Mustang went from retro to a Ford Taurus/Fusion coupe?

Winner of the contest "Who can look more like a BMW."
