There will be some mad a$$ people if it is. It looks like a lancer.

gbranton · 12-07-2011, 11:32 PM

I doubt it, the reaction would be similar to when Ford tried to replace the fox-chassis car with the car that became the Ford Probe.

Thunderbolt · 12-08-2011, 12:06 AM

Top speed: 88mph.

03BumbleBee · 12-08-2011, 12:19 AM

I love the 2012 body style and like the 2013 even more, Ford needs to be carefull not to get too euro.

If that were the new Mustang, my first thought is that I'm glad there's 49 years worth of previous Mustangs to fall back on. But I'd say that the Evos is probably more a look into the future of the Fusion.

73mach03 · 12-08-2011, 07:34 AM

Ford may be trying to get a lot of attention with a radically different look. There will always be some who want to break away from the retro look and others who want to hold onto it. I'd expect them to meet somewhere in the middle.

The front....I think I could get used to that. Rear quarter...not so sure.

Bill Hamilton · 12-08-2011, 07:41 AM

I believe it. New World Order/World Car and all that crap. Ford can't continue to sell "retro" forever. If so we'd still all be driving 1930 Model A's. Much like Disco, Retro is dead. 2014 Mustang will be the last of the American Mustangs as we know them, the true 49'er.

I think the biggest thing for most of us will be the question about if it will still have a V-8? In the 1974 the Mustang II originially did not. The demand forced Ford to put a V-8 back it, now at that time is was like 139 hp but it was a start (LOL).

wannamach1 · 12-08-2011, 11:48 AM

I bet it will be close,after all it is a two door concept. Flat back glass reminiscent of the 71-73. I kinda like it.

MachWonGuy · 12-08-2011, 12:49 PM

Looks like 2014 will be my last chance to buy a Mustang

Really hope it doesnt come to this

mach1child · 12-08-2011, 01:23 PM

Now i found another article on that website with a white mustang concept, im all for a new design but still keep it cool and not change it so it looks like every other car. IMO most new cars now days look alike, the plastics, lines, color etc.

I might start saving my money to pick up a 2014 Shelby GT-500. While the new generation Mustangs, 2015 and beyond, may be cool and all that, the 2014 Shelby GT-500's with 650 hp will be the pinnacle of the performance Mustang’s much like the 1970 Boss 429’s are thought of today.

Mr. Bill, I am with you with this thought.

I may be doing a 2 for one trade deal on the 2014 GT500.

gokstate74 · 12-08-2011, 01:37 PM

Nothing about that concept says mustang to me.

65fastback2+2 · 12-08-2011, 01:40 PM

you could make some changes here and there and it would come out alright. the back says 71-73 mustang to me all over it

Four doors by my count. Although the rear doors when open make the car look like a dog next to a fire hydrant. Speaking of dogs, I don't think this says "Mustang" in any way, to me it looks like the new Mitsubishi Eclipse. I wouldn't ever spend my money on it. If this is the future it is time to buy a car and start hoarding parts.

the crazy gull wing suicide doors would never make production though. try opening your doors in a parking garage? fail lol

I wish they would do a 67-68 fastback version of the 2013.

I agree. A few changes and we could be looking at the new BOSS 351. 5.8 liter is here !!

Firebreed05 · 12-08-2011, 10:35 PM

Looks like an Aston Martin concept car to me. There's no way that has anything to do with the 2015 Mustang...there's not one single hint of Mustang DNA anywhere on the car. Ford ain't that stupid.
