Default 2004 1/2 Mustang?

Took a gander at my new Road & Track, and saw this picture of the 2004 Mustang. Sort of looks like the blue one, but this is supposedly from Ford. What do you think?



You can see how it was "influenced" by the '67-8 cars. The article said they may out vents on the 'C' pillar, but I don't see one, I only see a 'B' pillar.

Yeah, those seem to be the "Stock sketch wheels" I see them on everything, and would expect to see the Bullitts return.

OH MAN THAT IS AWFUL!!!! I thought the blue one looked bad, but this one is a crime against nature. That thing looks worse than a 74-78 Mustang II. PLEASE tell me thats not what the next Mustang is gonna look like.

I like the Blue one SO MUCH MORE ITS NOT FUNNY. That thing is as close to hideous as Ive seen in a while. I truly hope that the Ford guys could see the the Blue car ( if its not a FORD sketch ) and see how much better it looks than this one.

I liked the "blue" concept car, and I think Ford is going in the right direction, but this looks to much like a sedan, IMO.

I don't care for that one too much. Looks like an old stang got snuck up on and humped by an Audi TT and gave birth to some mutant.

I like this one, it's awsome, reminds me of the 90 Thunder Bird, but with better body features that is suitable for next Mustang. Long hood, slim, nice feders, grill, and seems to have an nice rear end. Imagine this one on a Saleen line (awsome). I hope they don't mess up the tail lights and make them look like that of a Saturn. Actually this one looks a lot better than the blue 2004 concept car. That blue car that came out of Automobile looks to retroish (unrealistic). Don't take me wrong the other one looked asome (agressive) but we have seen how the Mustang has digressed over they years, so let get real. I preffer this one better that the other yellow one that came out of Motor Trend Magazine.
I hope the next Mustang will look like the one pictured above. This car would look sweet on a convertible model. If you guys don't like this one, you guys are very disatified and have no confidence on FORD (American cars), and you guys really have a problem. At least it doesn't look anything like the current 2002 Model. It is interesting to see how Mustang models digresses and progresses back and forth. I was planning to purchase an Ifiniti G35 coupe, after I thought the next Mustang would look like the sketch shown on Motor Trend Magazine. However, if it looks something like the one above, I will definately reconsider. Be nice to have a 65 and a 2004 1/4 2005 model at the same time, intead of a ricer burner.

Nope, sorry... don't like it at all....

If I wanted a Ford sedan, I'd buy a Taurus.

And what is up with the HUGE wheels these days? ugh....

To be honest, I'm glad I have my 98. Which in my opinion is second in looks only to a 69 Mach 1.

Can anybody come up with the concept for the SN cars? I'm curious to see how different from the idea they turned out to be. Wait, wasnt that what the MACH car was?

From this:




To this:


That's Hammer's car BTW.

Uh.... What are you talking about? Everyone has their own taste in cars and what they think looks good, so where do you get off saying that? I think you have the problem.

I like the blue one better. The front end looks ugly and the rims have got to go. We need more then rubber bands for tires!
