not radically different than the 05+ from a styling aspect if you ask me.

I like it, not digging the weird styled taillights, but the body has a nice shape to it!

Anybody know what the engine/power gonna be :dontknow:
Same old 4.0L V6 for 2010, expected to drop the eco-boost one in 2011 and also make a turbo-charged V6 of the eco-boost engine. V8 is the same old 4.6L with a cold air kit, bring horsepower up from 300HP-315HP. Still glad Im upgrading my car, after looking at more pics I dispise that new rear end, it looks tacky. The front is to die for though :)

EDIT: Just checked that sheet, 3.55s are standard again with an optional 3.73!!!

Ok so now they're STARTING to fix the ugly bits of the S197. I think there was wayyy too much hype over this. Like way way way way too much.

But I still sorta like it. but def too much hype.

that thing is ugly as sin. they didnt do ANYTHING right with this redesign. the tail lights got worse, the turn signals next to the PROJECTORS looks like ass, the driving lights are too big for the grille, the grille is too short (vertically), and after 44 years they decide they want to move the antenna to the back?


it almost makes me wonder if this is a sign that theyre running out of ideas, and that this could be the end of the line for this car.

as for the performance, im not surprised, nor upset with what they did. the only thing im upset about in the performance aspect, is the lack of choice. you either get a choice (1) V6 or a (1) V8 and thats it. they should have made the base model v6, a base model GT with the 4.6, a premium GT with the 5.4, and the shelby/cobra/boss/etc should have gotten the 6.2 they hyped us all up about. and if they wanted to push it a little farther, make a boosted 6 if they think it could sell.

a 315hp mustang will probably outsell the 400+hp camaro any day, because 315hp is going to appeal to a bigger range of people other than the purist big displacement muscle car guys. plus it gives us a car that is 315hp virtually untuned, as opposed to buying say a Mercedes with 315hp, that you can do virtually nothing to, to get any more power out of it.

Laughing out loud?

I didn't think it was possible to make the S197 uglier but I think they've done it. The bailout that the Big 3 are wanting should be denied based solely on the ugliness of this car.
