Thread: OMG! C&D puts vigorouszx render in 2015 mustang feature by mistake!!!

  1. 10-04-2012 01:00 PM #1
    just opened my new car and driver to page 18; wowzers, she's a beaut. couple of weird flyaway edges, sure, but a real looker. instead of a 300z with 458 italia cues, this one appears to be genesis coupe based with a few brz/fr-s (and viper and aston) influences mached upon it.

    [photo credit: Mazda 3s. thanks!]

    is this the new mustang? not bad!

    car and driver says it will be a 50th birthday present to the day, and calls it Ford's "oldest continuously produced nameplate;" that it "could be the most radical mustang since the first one," and that "its sheetmetal wrapper may concern loyalists."

    what say you, oh wise ones?

    That looks like the Ford Evos concept. Almost identically. If that's the new Mustang, DO WANT. Loyalists be damned.

    It looks good, but I'm not OK with the Mustang sharing this many styling queues with a 4 door family sedan.

    correct; for their article, c&d used some evos pics and produced some additional images based on it, which was first shown at last September's Frankfurt auto show. they are basically presenting it as informed speculation. probably just a publicity stunt!

    1) I don't have a phone
    2) I've never posted an image
    3) There are no "actual pictures;" it is an article about a future car with renders.

    1) Oh.
    2) It's easy. You type [img] and then [/img] with the URL of the image in between.
    3) I mean the render, the render you're talking about.

    Not that I dislike the current Mustang, I like it a lot. However, I cannot wait until they go away from retro. I want to see where the future takes the design...

    Personally, the current Mustang is my favorite since the Fox body and then the 64.5-71ish before that.

    That rendering if it became reality would seriously make me consider a Mustang.

    I can see a little Aston Martin (ish) in there, but too many curves. Still, kinda want.

    CONCUR! Man that looks great. An American car this good looking, would keep my next car from being a BMW or Audi. Do it Ford!
