Wow! I really like the aluminum retro interior. I think out of all the Detroit Big 3, Ford is doing the best job.

The new Corvette is nice, but it doesn't seem to have as much of an impact as the new Mustang.

This thing is ugly. I can't wait to see it in person at the Detroit auto show next weekend and laugh out loud at it's ugliness. I'll start now.

Thumbs up

I'll reserve final judgement for when I see one in person. I know my WRX looked much different in person than it did in pictures.
Anyway, I really like the pictures of this new stang. They did an excellent job making a car that looks modern, yet has styling cues of both the 60's and early 70's model Mustangs. The back looks like a late 60's fast back and the front reminds me of the early 70's Mach 1's (in High School my buddy Mark had one and we used to *gasp* street race each other in my Nova).
I'm sure part of the reason I like this car is that when I was 16 I lusted after the old mustangs. I actually test drove half a dozen of them and every single one would pull hard to the left or right when you hit the brakes.

I would have done away with the center two lights, but other then that, I actually like the design. Better then the current model mustangs.
