I feel like the body lines on the quarter panel look just like a Camaro. It is different for sure, huge car.

Ive heard a few people say that about the body lines, I have yet to see it live yet. .. it looks huge..
I did not expect at all to see one there. aftermarket rims on it already, only had it 3 days

I looked at one last night at my local dealership. it was a black gt. and it had the rear spoiler delete and looked very plain to me.
and I saw a paint run in the rear bumper and the rest of the paint did not look great, had a lot of orange peal in it . think for 35K you would get a better paint job.
I remain horrified at the look of this car. Importoramafestival edition.
wow this thing looks like a submarine from the front. and a volvo of old from behind or something.
HARVESTER OF EYES
DAMN IT! LET THE RABBITS WEAR GLASSES, SAID THE CRIES OF THE CARROT.
YOU SHOULD NEVER SMOKE IN PAJAMAS, YOU COULD CATCH ON FIRE AND BURN YOUR FACE.
Looks lot nicer than any of the models from 94-2004 in my opinion. I never could quite understand the curved rear where the taillights are. This one looks nicer than the others for sure. As long as there is a "5.0" under the hood, I'm in!
Cool car, congrats to him! Thanks for sharing the pics!

I don't know, I'm hoping it will grow on me, with it's fusion grill and all. I wonder if Ford replied when the 370Z asked for it's quarter windows back.

1986 GT Hatchback.
Overheard at Carlisle 2013: "Wow, this thing still runs?"
You're darn right it does!
I'll keep my 84 and 04 and be happy with them.
1984 Mustang GT owned since 1991 (first car). Mercury Mountaineer GT-40P engine, some suspension mods, currently undergoing a five lug SN95 brake upgrade and more suspension mods. Some minor body and interior mods have been done as well.

Nice color and rims. What fun it must be to be one of the first to own one.
Constant attention grabber. Questions. The hood release handle will get a workout.
Time to go to a Ford dealer and inspect the production version closer.
Especially under the car.
I see a hood prop rod.
Under hood looks busy. What is back there at the cowl area?
Every corner taken. Stuff added everywhere. Hose, cable runs.
What is that extension at the bottom center rear bumper?
Wheel wells look huge. Not much to tub out back there in the future.
Trunk and hood hinge setup is different. How does water drain off the rear glass when trunk is opened?
Noticed certain colors of a Camaro, like silver, reflect sunlight off the body panels as to appear as different shades.
Mostly at the rear 1/4 body side contour flared out area, vs the flat door panel.
Any aero drag numbers on these? Did pro racing influence any of this design?
A hint of Mustang II era? As to having a grill become a more prominent and forward feature from past year models.
Are those cornering lights? Our cars certainly lack enough light there to aid turning into a dark area or around a dark corner.

It's funny how ford seams to go up and down on the mustang size. One generation feels big, looks big the next is small. It seams they are on the big cycle as of now. I Have seen the 15s all over Los Angeles with Michigan plates for the past 6 months. I hope they grow on me, as of now I like the 2013 model better.

Its nice but I would take a low mile foxbody any day over the new ones........dont get me wrong,but if i won or someone gave me a brand new mustang i would take it.lol.I would just really like a low mile sweet foxbody instead. Chad
Lowering springs?! Doesn't he even care how it drives? Look how it sits now, I think any lower wouldn't look right. Nice consistent distance from the tire to the fender arch all the way around. Not like how the SN95s came with 4 wheel drive from the factory.

Front 1/4 view is the most flattering, ripped from the Astin, the rest is also ripped from less desirable cars. All in all one of the least original and fugly new Mustangs since the 94... Coupled with the up market goal and price tag it is a fail in my book.
