i dont like the current one, other than the roush type models that have the lip kits on them. bartow ford always has a few of those out front and some of them look really good. there is a wingless white one that is lowered on chrome 20" bullet style wheels and it looks soooooooo sexy. it has 2 grey racing stripes that i could do without but it has a very nice profile.

i like the taillight upgrade they did for '10, not sure i like the front. the top half slanted look is better, but i think it needs a better front bumper. maybe a style that has 2 areas on each side of the big opening for little openings (i would say foglight areas, but those are up next to the headlights).

It's still the same design! They could have drastically changed something about the car to make it at least more interesting.

it's funny that the 4 banger guys are alway putting down cars because of what they weigh. it takes torque to get a heavy car moving. the lighter the car the less torque you need. so as long as the car can make good torque, weight is not a big problem.

its a minor model change, same as they did from 98-99... you can see the whole body is actually different, as well as the front and rear lights, yet it is still based on the current one. The next major model change will be in about 4 years

Maybe remove the backseat too. Backseats are so worthless.
I'd buy one of them fuckers!!!!

did you miss the part about it being a one-off by and Italian design house?

I like the the revised front on the 2010, they shoulda stuck with '05 rear tails though - it looks too much like the pre-2005 mustang tail lights

The 2010 looks nearly the same as the current one, but the minor changes look better. The only current mustangs I like are the new Roush and Cobras but imo are very disappointing in terms of power. In other words, they're really slow. Now the '03-'04 Cobras I really like as well as the old school ones (60s & 70s).
