Default 2015 Mustang

I ran across an article on Yahoo news today stating the Mustang was doing away with the retro look for the 2015 model. Wow! Did they ever! Hideous! Now THAT looks like a Ricer/Transformer/whatever for sure. Not sure this one will grow on us. The rear end is really ugly.

If the Camaro outsells the Mustang month after month NOW, a used Yugo will outsell that newly designed one.

And I thought GM had problems. Just think of all the people in Ford management who had to have APPROVED that design.

Ford will probably need to enlist the aid of the car salesmen who sell those "Smart Cars". I figure if a salesman can sell one of those ugly things, then selling these new Mustangs will be a piece of cake.

The picture of that car and a V-8 rumble do not go together. Wonder what the Shelby will look like?(or will there be a Shelby) The article says Ford is trying to appeal to younger buyers. My 14 year old son said, "it looks weird". He thinks the current Mustang appeals to more people his age....

OMG is that ugly! It looks like a rehash of an old honda accord.

I doubt Shelby would put their name on that thing.

Well, apparently this isn't a REAL car, just a concept, so it's all just speculation anyway.

This is probably more in line with what to expect for a 2015 Mustang, I would guess. http://mustangsdaily.com/blog/2013/0...s550-platform/

Well it's a lot easier on the eyes, that's for sure. I just noticed the little "Hot Wheels" concept is dated nearly a year ago. Guess Ford thought about it and came to their senses....

Regarding the first post / concept car rendering - It would suck as a Mustank, but it does look pretty cool as a 2 door version of the Taurus or similiar car.
