What you think of the new Mustang?

[Sins550]

Lots of Camaro in it but I do like the Dark Horse. Also, finally has real brembo rear brakes, a tremec and looks like it has a front bumper camera for you super low guys.

I was honestly unimpressed by the power of the Dark Horse. It will be expected to compete with the Hell Cat and with only ~500 hp it will not compete.

It looks like someone describing a new Camaro to someone who’s never seen a Camaro before. I won't even get to the interior.. or the 'fox body dash' mode.

I like it more than I thought I would from the renders. I'm biased so I'll say gf prefers the 2018 s550 lol. I actually like the interior but I have a feeling it'll be easy to bug out.

I'm just glad it's finally over so I can stop eye rolling at the few adamant comments, floating around, claiming this would have a 6.8l v8.

Right now it's a tentative "no" from me. I still strongly prefer physical gauges over an all digital dashboard. I know I'm in the minority on that.

Waiting to find out more though. Curb weight, suspension revisions, official HP numbers, and how it drives. I'm excited about the dual air boxes and throttle bodies on the Gen 4. Too bad the Ford reveal didn't cover any of that...

I’m pretty sure seeing it in person would be better than looking at pictures and videos.

You’re correct.

- Head lights and its eye brow LEDs -- too much like Camaro.
- Single, front facing faux hood vents -- Dodge Challenger copycat
- Dark Horse be okay except the black roof top - European copycat
- Modernized dash, taking a break from the traditional layout, but I could like it only if digital dash is bright in day light
+ Bring back GT-350 Stripes as option to the Dark Horse
+ Keep Analog gauges option
+ GPS map pop-in view into the dash-front view area when turn is near (love how Porsche does it)
+ Keep the Premium option
+ New dash appears to be less rattle free (sure hope so)
+ Improve AC cooling for seat and seat-back
+ Install woofer under the driver bottom seat to feel the bass pump
+ Provide car cam & cellular video upload options like Arlo camera
+ Provide handgun pocket (cubby hole) for self defense

It makes me like everything else even more. I think a new edge mustang even looks better. Seems like a downgrade from an s550 honestly. I want to like it but it makes me sad inside.

Not a fan. Keeping my 01 BULLITT for now…hopefully get a 2022 M1 if possible

 

[Desmodeous]

Wow what a letdown. Guess I'm officially out of the mustang family when I have to put ol grey down. No. Way. In. Hell. would I enjoy sitting in that Matel inspired techno-holocaust of an interior. Wtf is the point of all that bs?

 

[308 Cal. Bullitt]

Its alright. Newcomers will probably like it. Zoomers will probably gush over the interior.

Since we will never ever get a destroked 7.3L in a Stang..
I say. When sales on Dark horse grind to halt..
... Put some cubic inches in that ole 5.2L....

& wake me up when the
• Boss 329 •
is built. Otherwise.
GT500 stays...

It's okay, I'd rather see it in person.

I did not feel the enthusiasm from the crowd. And the MC was struggling. Come on how about some applause.

Too many Camaro looking things (lower frontside grills, and those rear fenders and the smooth Camaro like sides) First look at the rear strikes me as a Covette with mustang taillights. Overall, it did not make much of an impression on me appearance wise. Definitely do not like the glass dash. And the presentation was totally lacking in the performance description area.

I will keep Billy and keep modifying to suit my needs. Like all things if you like it, Great! Just not something that would make me start to think about getting rid of my '17.

I voted yes.

But that doesn`t mean I like it more than my mustang. Compared to most lame cars on the market this is much better looking. Guys don`t forget most people are driving ugly crossovers or SUVs. Plus in 2025 when we have no more camaros and challengers sold this will be the ticket for many people.

I do hate how Ford put a huge screen inside though. But it won`t be a deal breaker for me. I like it, but of course not totally happy either.

My 18 and 21yr old sons friggin adore it, I’m kinda meh, s’alright
