Which is great for a track car taking a lot of driver error out of the equation.

I don't foresee those insets being that big and deep.

If they are...



That is by far the best rendering yet of what it will hopefully look like. I would buy it.

I was hoping it'd look more like this... when I saw these I was all set to save up for one. I don't like the ugly new bumpers on the basic same shape as the current car... whats the point in making it uglier?

I would be jumping a combination of the two rendering posted.

the C and D car has hips and is rounded like an Aston/XK Jag... The flat side brick styles that are out now dont do much for me.

its probably not going to be a major change.

I hope they do a retro version of the Mustang II!!!

also, that article was horrible. i skimmed through it and it was not helpful at all.

cliff notes from that article:
"It was awesome! It looks nothing like the renderings everyone has been making! It had lights on it and louvers...the taillights were the traditional style...it was a mustang, and it'll have a V8 powertrain option"
-Thanks for all the information, would have never guessed.

Its like trying to describe a person and saying "He was between 5'0" and 7'0" tall, lightish/darkish hair, he had eyes, and a nose, huge guy but really skinny"

Until I see a real picture ( with door handles, fuel door, and US Legal marker lights), it's all speculation and photoshop tom foolery. I do think the Evo and C&D models are neat looking, jalopnik, not so much.

I am in if it looks similar to the rendering! Just hope they don't shrink it much for the euro market!
