I will probably get in touch with my contact at American Muscle to confirm this. Earlier on this year I was contracted to do some concept design work for the 2015 Mustang as well as the 2011-2014 Stang. I did many many concept sketches for many things. Can't get into any details except about...
One thing I don't like about the Roush styling to come for this car is the upper grill. It lost too much of the character and shape of the OEM upper grill to the point it's starting to look too much like a 2013-2014 grill. I like the shape of the new upper grill.
I'm just patiently waiting for a straight up comparison of the Hellcat and the 2014 GT500. It will clearly show that the GT500 can equal or maybe better the Hellcat for less $$$. You guys saw the part about these these Hellcats weighing in at about 4300 lbs right???!!!! Really?! Also, how many...
I think Rampant did a nice job cleaning up the camo shots. I wanted to try something really quick while on my lunch break here.
I tweaked the hood extractor a little bit. From the front camo shots you can see it narrows in as it comes forward so I changed the rendering to reflect that a little...
I think the 435 hp is under rated. Here's all I can say. I've heard the GT is puttin out more at the crank than 435...I'm hearing more than 450. I will leave it at that. I think a lot of people will be happily surprised when we see the first factory new cars off the lot being strapped down to...
Hey, anybody notice how the headlights look more sunk into the sides of the front fenders? Looks like those front fenders may come out at least another inch for wider meats. Look at the front shot. They are almost flush with the fenders on the GT.
Thanks guys, I tried to be on the clean side of styling. Some of that segmented bolt on body work stuff doesn't seem to work on everything and can look too tacked on in my opinion.
The front fender flare was a real B! if you know what I mean. To get a clean flow at the lower front where the...
Yeah I like the hood a lot too. We had Kinsler Fuel Injection for one of our sponsors...the idea was to have low profile stack injection - Individual Throttle Bodies under the hood too. We came up with a ton of cool ideas for this car - maybe I can convince my builder to tool up some stuff anyways.
Thanks for the compliments guys. No rear shots, didn't have much time. I designed everything and rendered it all up in about a week and a half. I also did the concept breif write up as well as features and design outline write-up for the proposal. Mind you I work a pretty hectic full time job...
OK, so the shop I was working with, Group 5 Ltd. in AZ, in trying to get a 2015 Mustang for SEMA called me today. We didn't get picked either for one of the 2015 Mustang $1 cars for SEMA 2014. I know there's tons of competition for this car and only a few to hand out but damn there better be...
Thanks! I'm a huge fan of the RWB Porsches and a lot of inspiration came from those builds. Everything I designed flows with the body of the new Mustang and further enhances and compliments it very agressively. I took a lot of inspiration from the hood on my GT500 concept rendering. You don't...
I saw the wide body stuff and it looks OK but maybe a more "functional" wide body would be more "widely" accepted?? LOL! I can't get into too much detail as of yet but I designed a wide body 2015 Mustang working with Group 5 Ltd. that was submitted to Ford a couple months ago for the Ford/SEMA...
It's said to be the furthest departure from a Gt an SVT has ever been.
As far as exterior goes - We know it's going to have something going on with the hood...I'll place my bets on some sort of heat extractor hood. It looks as if we're getting a high winding V8 with a flat plane crank N/A so I'd...
Hey cool, thanks for re-posting!
I probably won't take a crack at it only because I think the car is going to be unveiled soon...think at the New York Auto Show possibly? Is that still happening or just a rumor?
After talking with my "source", although I have no details at all, what was said was...

Uuuuuuhhhh - this is probably pretty close to reality. I can't confirm sources (multiple) or who I spoke with about this but I also heard 520hp-540hp flat crank and 8000 RPMS ALL MOTOR as well.

I also asked the question - why a GT350? Why not a GT500? The reply was who said Ford WASN'T...
