I like what Hennessy did to the mustang .... But this thing has scoops ,scoops and more scoops that went out of style with the last mustang. I would not be caught dead in that thing.

The only thing i like thats appealing are the side exit exhausts and that rear vent...looks functional...doubt it though.

I agree with many above...Ford can only do it right and the GT350 does not dissapoint with the styling. Hands down.

Doesn't work for me. It looks like they tried to retro the new car. I agree with those who say its tough to change the looks of the new car because its the clean modern look that makes it so appealing.

If personally like the GT350 and the Shelby GT...as packages. If i had a GT and wanted to mod it...I would go with the Vossen wheels a quad tip exhaust and a paint accent or two...

Non functional scoops acts against the aerodynamics of the car and it also adds extra weight. What Ford did with the gt350 is the real deal and this car can't get better looks than that. It is simple, but functional and looks good.

I usually like Cervini's stuff but they missed the mark with this one. The S550 has evolved nicely into a more modern car and it seems they tried to force stuff that worked on previous models on this car.

1st post. This will seem off topic but I will come back to it.

I love the GT350 and here is why.

They fixed the damn hood of the 2015 GT.

I have both a 95 Cobra with factory spec 95 Cobra R hood and a 2005 GT. Both my cars have excellent forward visibility. I dont see tons of hood for miles in front of me. Even the cowl induction hood of my 95 is just not that bad.

When I test drove the 2015 GT Perf Pack I was less than enthusiastic about a lot of stuff. Number one gripe was the stupid hood. I hate how much of it I can see, meaning the top of the hood and the forward visibility. The style lines at the mid point of the hood annoyed me to death.

That is one thing about the GT350 that I love, they fixed the damn hood and the lines coming off the nose. Hate the nostril vents of the GT as well, much prefer the GT350 or outgoing GT500 style vents or even 2014 GT hood vents.


now to get on topic,

If cervinis did something between a 2015 GT350 hood and say that of a 2014 GT500 hood while doing away with the over dramatic ridges in the hood, the design would be more appealing.

Their car with something GT350 inspired and a more subtle wing would likely be insanely popular. Too much mixing of styles to have squarely hit the mark.


I like the side pipes. Do not like the spoiler, too big however the Steeda spoiler I dont mind. Would prefer a duckbill type of setup like the GT350 track pack design. Hate the slats for side windows, visibility in the s550 is way more restricted than my sn95 and sn197. The whole car feels massive to me by comparison and I wouldnt make choices that further reduce visbility.

I am in the "waiting to see what comes" group. If I can wait a year and maybe afford a GT350 so be it. Otherwise the built 331 I have sitting in my garage for my 95 Cobra may go into a type 65 FFR kit car.

I want a 2015 GT but it doesnt cause me to be as emotionally connected as with my unsophisticated bastard child 95 Cobra. Too much tech, too soft, and basically too nice. Beautiful car with the best interior of all Mustangs to date but doesnt touch my soul.

I very closely watch Cervinis, Steeda, and Rousch to see what comes but I dont think anyone has done better than Ford yet with the GT350 being the perfect design in my book.

The stock car looks better.

Fake Side scoops?

Hood nostrils?

Louvres?

Really?

I guess the poor Mustang design really CANT advance with so many of its supporters stuck in the past.

Note to designers: Modernize!

Sheesh. It's getting truly bothersome now seeing even the camaro move forward while the true pony car is continually held back by crap like this.

There is nothing on the Cervini website about 2015 Mustang. And 2016 is already open for order. Hurry Up with the update. I need a Ram Air hood and CAI.

Looks good except for maybe the side pipes, I like the more traditional look like on a Shelby GT500 dual setup. I'm also digging the rear side louvers which I might add to mine possibly.

it comes lookin so good directly from factory..and it seems for now aftermarket just detracts from that
IMO, It comes from the factory looking much like a EURO car that
YOUNGER PEOPLE like it best. I also don't like Plastic Stick On Scoops.
All those BLACK Openings look like the Entrance to the Lincoln Tunnel
to me. IMO. Thank You. I passed up this car too many dislikes for me.
I bet Half of the Camaro guys wish they would have Changed it more.
Change is OK, but not for everyone. So Ford wants to sell more Stangs
and it will but not to old farts like me. TOO much I PHONE Gadgets.

Said it before and will say it again: when it comes to vents and scoops of any sort on a Mustang, make it functional or make it gone. The only thing the fake stuff accomplishes is to diminish the credibility of the brand.
