I like the rear spoiler but otherwise underwhelmed.

First thing I notice is that the horse to tribar ratio is off in the grille..horse is too damn big! And the spoiler doesn't do it for me...other than that...meh to the GTCS package...the 11-14 GT/CS looked way better

I care about infotainment
I love those wheels. Wish I could get those on the Performance Pack.

Don't really care for the wheels, spoiler, or grill. The wheels are horendous. The spoiler doesn't flow and the GT honeycomb grill with the centered pony looks much classier than the horizontal slats with the offset ginormous pony/bars.

And I thought the faux gas cap was ugly on the 15's. Glad I bought when I did!

I usually never like the C/S package on Mustangs, but on the S550, it looks REALLY good.

Looks terrible, but Im sure there ll be plenty of takers. I think Ford hit the right note with the current GT grille. The off-center pony worked on the s197 but theres something really off about it on the s550.

Not a fan. The offset tri-bar pony doesn't look right on the S550.

It will look better on lighter colored cars so the black accents stand out more.

Not digging it too much, I do really want that grill through without the pony logo.

Well I used to want that type of grille, not anymore...

It also seems like it's impossible to get a decent looking spoiler on this car.
