They are tryin' to make it look like the 67 fastbacks from my understanding... The convertible is kinda ugly i've seen the actual hard top fastback and it looks pretty neat.

Well, if it's anything like the new T-Birds, they'll start off around $38k.. I have a 1957 T-Bird that my dad takes care of for me because I don't have a garage and the humdity down here is hard on cars that is cherried out and I'd LOVE to get one of the new ones, but that's just too much money! lol.. eGo

I see what they are trying to accomplish but the back does look odd, IMO. Now the front, it looks a ton better. Any mustang past 1970 I think is ugly (except for the rare few newer ones that you see, but still there are just so damn many that its a turn-off). I'd have to see a hardtop before I could really judge it though, cause I really like the 300z's but I've seen those convertable and I think they look ugly.

I've always like the 'tang but the back in on this one doesn't resemble the later models to me.

Of course over the years they have changed so much. Once the bodys are changed so many times it's hard to get back close to what any car once was.

I'm sure it will be out of my price range if it's over $30,000. :(

I really like the front end but the rear of those is something else don't like the rear at all... But yeah my dream car will be a 65 GT :D with the original 289 in it!

Kinda looks like them transformers. Next generation vehicles have that futuristic robotic look to them.

I think it looks like crap. Just another box on wheels. The front looks like a early 80 733csi and the rear looks nothing like a BOSS.

Of course I will buy a car based on performence before I would ever buy one based on looks.

I saw it at the Detroit Auto Show and I thought it looked great. It was actually voted car of the show I think...

Loooks like a lot of fibre glass/plastic to me. Whatever happened to metal fenders? I mean it's pathetic when you get in an accident and instead of a dent, your shit just cracks! No pullin' that. Gotta buy anothe rone and replace it. The new Chevy trucks bed's are like this. I have a buddy that was out 4x4in' and knocked a branch up with his rear tire and it just cracked a humungous (sp) piece of the plastic out of the bottom of the bed.. Crap I say!!!! eGo

I think the rear looks more like the old Cougar than an old Mustang.

Now if they were to implement the turn signals that start from the middle and work to the side of the car that would be really retro.
