I don't think I'll ever get over that ugly rear end.

It sounded nice for a stock mustang. That was the first time I've seen one in person and I have to say I like it a lot better than the current ones. They really look so much more sleek than the 05-09's. I'm not trying to offend anyone that owns an 05-09 but those years truly look like a box now. The 2010 has much more curves and we all no the 99-04 look nothing like a box so there was definitely an improvement.

Looking at the whole car I say its moving in the right direction. Yes the rear end might not be great but to be honest in person I didn't think its as bad as I thought when I saw most pictures

I like the look of the new ones compared to the 05-09. I don't have a problem with the rear and I think the front looks better too.

I don't understand whats so bad about the rear. its irrelevant and most people will mod it out anyway.

I do like the front... looks better coming than going. I'm sure in time it'll grow on me.

+1... and it still looks a hell of a lot better than the cheap looking rear on the 05-09


as for the plastic, it would have been nice if they painted the plastic parts, but why use metal if you can use plastic? the cars are heavy enough as it is.

its more that is doesnt look like a mustang in the rear anymore. 3 semi or full vertical lines for each side... the angular bar looks out of place...

the fact that its plastic...most car bumper covers are plastic.

I saw two of the 2010's this past Saturday, while up in sonoma doing some wine tasting. There was a red GT in the parking lot of the first winery we stopped at and later I saw one in white driving the oposite direction as we were on our way to the next winery. Unfortunatly I didn't have a camera with me. They do look pretty nice from the front too.

That's all I've seen so far. Saw two white ones when I was down in Carmel. And to all the plastic haters, I do believe the 03/04 cobra has plastic on it's rear bumper. It's not that much plastic and it breaks up the color of the car a bit and looks good.

I hated all the trim at first but after seeing a white one I like the trim for the most part. I will say that I hate the trim on the Grabber blue though.
