I have a mixed feeling about this.
How is different than Hyundai and Kia trying to make a luxury sedan that sorta looks like Mercedes and BMW with a hint of Audi?

At glance, kind of like a Camaro but it could look like a Challenger?
The rear..its like a almost-Mustang logo with almost-BOSS combined with Challenger rear.
also, Mustang interior, ZR1 wheels, etc...
ok this thing is nothing but an identity crisis : :

The profile looks great. It really looks classic. I like the modern muscle cars more than any other modern car, but often times they try to look "modern". This one doesn't seem to give a shit about that at all. Apply a 70's instagram filter to these, and it will look like it belonged in those times

If its going to be a tribute, I wish they would have done it more like the singer 911s. Pick a car, use new car technology, in original/updated classic body shape. It does look good though.

Besides having a different front fascia, I don't see how it looks any different from a mustang fastback..

And the reason modern muscle cars look like toys is because we've seen thirty years of models, Hot Wheels, and Micro Machines idolizing a 15 year period of domestic vehicle engineering. The toys were meant to look lie idealized versions of the originals.

not digging the front fogs. rest is epic.
i wish it had a better name and logo though. a backwards looking horse? the car should be confident that it's leaving ppl in the dust so it doesn't have to look back!

i remember seeing this awhile back on autoblog, not a huge fan of the fogs, sorta wished they made the grille completely rectangular without the bump at the bottom like the old camaros
i wonder how many people are gonna be willing to pay 250k for essentially a muscle car |

Cool concept but for 250K you could restore and Pro Touring mod a real classic. Hell for that kind of money you could probably do two. 250K is way too much to be asking for this car. It's just a modern Eleanor without the soul.
I'd rather have an original anyway:
etc.
