Default I didn't think I would ever say this........

But I love the new Mustangs (2010 up)!

Iv'e never really warmed up to the 05-09's. I think its the blah front end on the base and GT models. The GT500 is better, but still needs something else.

Now the 2010's:




























The front clip is bad ass! The side looks good. I'm still a little iffy on the rear though. The tail lights have grown on me. I can tolerate the concave tail light panel (the trank panel where the fake gas filler cap is). I'd get the saleen flat filler panel anyway. I just really dislike the lower valance on the rear bumper cover. I thik is should sit under the car more and not stick out so much.
I'm really thinking about getting a 2011 5.0

I agree. They are great looking cars, besides that rear end.

I like them 100% more than the new Camaro.

If you are a clissic Mustang fan (67,68,69), you can really see where the reto fits in. I like the 2010 also. They hit the mark.with these better than the previous attempts

Being and old fart, they fit into what I think a Mustang should look like.

But you have Saleen and Roush in the same picture. I'm not sure that is legal.

Can't wait for the new 5.0 4V. Looks to be a great engine on paper.

But then, so did the 4.6 in 1996....... We know how that turned out.

It sneaks up on you when you're not looking. Go about your business for a couple of years then look in the mirror and see how old you are. You won't recognize the guy looking back.
