I for one am hoping the mustang finally gets aerodynamics better than a brick wall. With ever increasing CAFE requirements I'm hoping the new mustang will be slipperier. I think the current line of mustangs is along .33-.36 drag coefficient. Not to mention we have a huge frontal area. Sub 0.30's would be a good start. The almost 10 year old vette is 0.29. My 84 SVO has roughly the same drag coefficient as my 2007.

I could dig it. Ain't it funny just to see how many people don't like change. Ford has already said the the new design will look nothing like what we all think a Mustang is. I say bring on more aerodynamics I'm looking for a good standing mile car to build.

I see some neat lines to it. Remember they never look the same in the preproduction models as the actual car. Remember the Giugario (spelling?) Mustang. They took several cues on the 10+ model from that. The same with the S197 model that was shown in 2004, production models much different but sevral styling cues from there. I am sure the 2014 model will be an awesome replacement.

Its got a nice look to it, by itself as a car concept, but with hints of Mustang, which upsets some Mustang lovers. I personally think its too extreme to be the next Mustang as it is travelling too far from its previous generation. Ford came back to this look and stuck with it with minor changes in 2010 because it worked and they sold cars. I dont think they will take such a big risk.

It's a bad ass car but I wouldn't want it to be called a Mustang, Ford should just name it something else and put the mustang drivetrain in it and keep the mustang a Mustang.

Pretty much what I was saying. Looks hot as it stands by itself. But as a new style with a MUSTANG plate on it, looks a bit off.

They whole side of it is a Corvette. Looks more like a Frankenstein of popular sports cars than anything else.

That's just someone's creative mind playing around. It's certainly not the new Mustang.

By the time that POS in the White House and Congress get through destroying this country, THIS will be the 2014 Mustang:

If I got one, somehow I'd feel like I'm in a second-class Aston.

I'd rather have first-class muscle.

Look at the evolution of the Corvette. Every consecutive model makes sense.

This... This does not make sense.

But then again, you could probably argue that the Fox body's design didn't make sense, and the S95 didn't make sense, either.
