Seems like there are tons of these cars being driven around. We need some kind of whistle blowers to tell us how these cars drive.

I Love the Triple Yellow but still can't wrap my head around Who Approved that Solid Painted Rear Bumper Diffuser and Thought it Looked Good. It just Sticks Out Like a Sore Thumb. If there was One Thing that Ford Really Dropped the Ball on for having a Near Perfect Lineup for the 50th Anniversary Year it's That Bumper/Diffuser. It wouldnt be as bad if it didnt have that "Lip" that sticks out behind the wheel and forms that Ridge across the back. But it still just looks like crap with the Black side Sills and Splitter.

This one has the tri-bar pony again

I'm thinking base model V6 with the tri-bar pony and unpainted rear diffuser.

And for the record I do not like the tri-bar pony.

Agreed. Incoherent is the word that comes to mind. I'm thinking I won't have to worry about it with the GT as they seem they will be painted black or be black ABS plastic.

What don't you guys like about the tribar pony? I think it fills it in nicely. I thought a lot of people thought the decklid had too much black space.

For me it is too retro. I feel Mustang needs to look forward more than looking backward.

I can see what you're saying but I'd rather the badge be retro than the design. After all part of the allure of the nameplate is its long heritage. You can't ditch all of it in one fell swoop.

Compared to the tribar ponies of old, it looks like they modernized it also.

I don't mind a tribar behind the pony as long as it's colored. With this monochrome design it blends in with the pony itself and basically ruins the pony outline. If it comes like this on my EB then it will be replaced.

Not Necessarily... We've see several GT's running around with this Tacky Fullly Painted Diffuser including this Ingot Silver GT and the Race Red GT that has been at several appearances. I just don't understand it.

Personally I have a lot bigger issue with the lame pastel yellow shade they chose than with the body colored insert. That is 100 times easier to correct than repainting the whole car.
