I'm going to be thoroughly upset if this new one runs circles around our cars.

You have to kinda expect it though. Every year tech improves, power increases etc.

Unless you remember cars of the mid '70s through '80s.

On the track most likely it will. Drag strip it's hard to beat live rear axle.

This is gonna be interesting. I could see them losing 15" in length(smaller trunk and 911 style back seats) but not sure where they're gonna lose 6" in width. The car is already super narrow

This is my first Mustang and my impression from my 2012 is that everything is pretty spot on. I honestly wouldn't change too much from a technical standpoint. Sure I have mods on the way but weight, length height space, seating, are all exactly what I expect. Especially compared to the the Camaro and Challenger it's direct competition.

You won't see the GT come faster than the new Corvette. Lol
Those tail lights definitely reveal larger (wider) and more rectangular brake lights, so I'm really hoping they went back to the look of the true vertical, separated bars from the 60s!

This latest rendition is not all that imaginative but is not that bad looking to me
