I gave it a 3
- the back reminds me of candy land. Those tail lights are really odd looking.
- The front still looks like a ninja turtle because of the goofy bloated hood
- it would do fine with that 315hp if it weighed as much as my optionless 96
- the quarter windows are lame, still
- The car is just way too tall below the waistline and reeks of the mopar "dub-styled" look
- interior is nice, but the machined (faux or not) metal pieces are the hokey fad that everyone's going to remember about the 2005+cars (probably across all brands for that matter)
- i never really thought the whole fisher price retro revival was all that cool in the first place, but I think it might actually be uncool by now. finally.
I was hoping that ford in all of this would remember what really made the mustang memorable after the misplaced intentions of the 74-78 line up and bring back all of the great characteristics of the fox bodies, especially the cargo space.
At one point in time the mustang was a simple performance car that was used by people on a day to day basis because it was quick, took well to modifications, and you could afford to beat on it. I'm actually a little disgusted that it's turned into this "it might be worth something someday so lets strap billet junk to it and hide it in the garage for as long as possible" abomination.
Anyways, I've probably irritated enough of the fan base to shut up at this point.
Cheers
