The ‘Battle of the bulge’ was big on this car...could be part of the reason.

Ugh that's not for me. I know it'll be fast, turn flat, be loud, make mochas etc. etc. but there's just too much JC Whitney on it for my tastes. I'm sure the Shelby fan boys will go through a few gallons of Prell when it hits dealerships.

“The 2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Could Get a Manual If Customers Want It
Right now, the new GT500 will only come with a dual-clutch transmission. But, the head engineer of Ford Performance won't rule out the possibility of a manual in the future.”

I am a fan! Its visually very aggressive and has a nice stance. time will tell on performance numbers but I imagine Ford worked pretty hard to make it a strong competitor.
No offense and I mean this in the friendliest way possible but you pretty much have to be a ford hater through and through to not like this car so far. Its right in line with all of the rest of fords designs and its no more plastic that any challenger or camaro. In my opinion, its still better looking proportionally than the competition.
