Why did I only realize that the S650 copied the heat extractors and a lot of the body's style from the 6th Gen Camaro? I've watched so many Raiti's Ride's mustang reviews, and I just noticed this. LOL. It's so fascinating to me that Ford would do this...

I'm really happy with my S550, but was curious if anyone else (S650 owners would have more of an opinion) cares about this? I'm not really a fan of the S650 body style and the interior with the huge screens, but others seem to dig it. The interior materials are better/nicer than my S550 (especially the door panels) even with the premium trim that I now have, I'll give it that. :)

I still think I see a Camero when I see one in the rear view mirror. And the taillights remind me of a Hyundai. I haven't cared for them much since I first saw one in the wild.

Although the S650 is not a bad looking car, it really can't compete with the S550, which may be the best example of the Mustang yet produced. I know my '21 Mach 1 HP makes me smile every time I look at it, and there isn't a bad angle to view it from!

The front end of the S650 is growing on me, and like most cars these days it seems, it looks better in person than in photos.

I have read and heard that the S650 drives better than the S550, and overall seems to be a better-built car, but the interior, while maybe using higher quality materials, doesn't really work for me.

I like the outside of the S650 but hate, did I say that, yep I really do not like the dash at all.

The S650 rear end looks like the MachE taillights and the front is similar to the newer Honda accord I’m my opinion.

Yeah, I'm not a fan of the deeply in-cut rear, and I do see the similarity to the Honda Accord, but that doesn't mean it can't look good, and I do think the S650 is much more aggressive. But as always, looks are subjective.

If the S550 never existed, the S650 would probably be a lot more popular. But, as we know...
