Funny, I think it looks way better than the last generation.

It will be way too tall and the trunk lid will be way too high off the ground, but that's just how new cars are (the trunk of my parent's new Taurus is taller then my wife's '93 300ZX!).

Yeah,.....most of the people on the Mustang forum I belong to love it. I do not.
I hate the front end, the side view and that rear is just ugly. Doesn't have that aggressive look to it. It lost it's lines, so to speak.
But, hey, different strokes for different folks.

Agreed... that's why they make different flavors of ice cream!

By the by, I cannot stand the current Camaro. Looks like a cartoon version of a Camaro if you ask me. Some of the newer Mustangs have that look too.


Have you seen the new Mustang in person?

You don't think this is aggressive looking?



Maybe I'm just boring!

I don't like the new Camaro since it came back into production since 2009/2010. Although, they are making some nice changes to it here and there.
I have not seen a 2015 Mustang in person.
