^ I like the new interior more than the current gen, but that bulbous nose/hood doesn't look very good in pictures... Maybe in person it will look better.
i think the rear straight on doesnt look half bad lol, its just that from the side/ any 3/4 view shows the side mirrors and they look wayyy too damn small, reminds me of the shit that the camaro has with the big and tall ass doors with puny ass windows

I still think it looks stupid as a Mustang, at this point they should just bury the Mustang brand and start something new, you can only go so far before the car you are building doesn't really have anything to do with the original apart from the name. I'd name this the Fusion Sport and call it a day.

Does the current 911 really have anything to do with the original, apart from the name? Should they get rid of that as well?
Get rid of the current Camaro, call it a Malibu sport? Perhaps call the current Challenger an Avenger sport...?

The Camaro and Challenger also have nothing to do with the originals, none of the new vehicles out there right now can shine a light on their elders. Toyota kept the spirit of the AE86 going with the FR-S, but they weren't hypocrites about "moving on" while they milked the same name.
If companies are going to go with the "we have to move on" mentality on design, then they should really move on with branding too. You can only milk a model for so long before it becomes a beaten horse (heh).
"Does the current 911 really have anything to do with the original, apart from the name? Should they get rid of that as well?"
Nobody said anything about getting rid of the cars, the point is to not label them as something they are not and will never live up to. Again, if companies are going to rant about "moving on", they should really just drop the whole botched throwback shit and create something that stands alone as it's own brand. This new "Mustang" is a prime example of creating an Aston Martin and labelling it as a 60's pony car.
I don't really care if I see a 2045 Camry, there is no history there, no name to squander when it was always a beige sedan. Don't get me started on the Charger.

I totally disagree with the name removal though, the charger i agree with 100%. That has nothing to do with the original. HOWEVER, the Mustang, and Camaro both are still available with RWD, a manual transmission, and a big V8 shoved in the front, along with aggressive styling. Just like the original... IDK.
The 2015 Ford Mustang is one of the most anticipated cars of the year, despite the fact that production hasn't yet begun. What's a pony car fan to do? It turns out that Ford already has pricing and options information about the vehicle in its dealer ordering system. A few enterprising folks have snapped some pictures from it and have posted them online. You might not be able to drive your car yet, but you can at least see what it might cost.
At the moment, Ford appears to be splitting the Mustang into five models – 3.7-liter V6, 2.3-liter EcoBoost, GT with the 5.0-liter V8, 50th Anniversary and SVT. There are 10 available paint colors, 2 of which require an extra outlay. Triple Yellow is $495, and Ruby Red Tint is $395. Regardless of model, navigation goes for $795, and reverse parking assist is $295.
For both the EcoBoost and GT, the six-speed automatic tacks an extra $1,195 to the sticker, and adaptive cruise control is the same price. The GT also has a limited-slip 3.55 rear end for $395 and a GT Performance package for $2,495. Recaro leather seats add an extra $1,595. For the EcoBoost, there's something called EcoBoost Performance package for $1,995. The system doesn't say what the packages include.
The info here also fits exactly with what we know about the Mustang 50th Anniversary Edition from the New York Auto Show. The package comes in Kona Blue or Wimbledon White with a special leather interior. According to this data, it adds $1,595 to the cost of a Mustang GT.
A user at the Mustang 6G forums also has images from the ordering system, and they include some info on the SVT model. While there are no prices, options include a track package, tech package and available Alcantara or leather seats.
Note, the pricing and options listed here could still change. That said, it's still fun to check them out. Information on colors and body styles can be downloaded as a PDF from The Mustang Source forum, and the rest can be viewed at Mustang 6G. Happy building.
2015 Mustang order banks are visible to us dealers now (have been for several days).
The 2 biggest reveals I've seen in the order banks are 1) that the limited edition 50th Anniversary GT gets its own unique body code (P8R instead of just P8C like a regular GT coupe), and 2) there is a Shelby offering showing in there (body code P8J).
The base model GT has the following available options...
The Premium Array GT's (400A & 401A) get those same items as options, plus the following...
Adaptive Cruise Control
19" Painted Aluminum Wheels
20" Machined Aluminum Wheels
Premium Trim CAG
Navigation System
50th Anniversary Package (19's & 50th Annv Mats, seat/door trim)
More info to follow as time allows. Thanks for your patience.
