Only an unlucky squirrel ever will see it from that angle.

Tires are a little fat

I've had numerous Mustangs, including a two recent GT500s. I will probably have them in the future too. Looks more like a rendition, but I like it anyway.

I appreciate all performance cars. The Mustang pictured looks good but it appears to be an illustration or artist rendering and not an actual picture. I'd have to see the real deal.

Looks pretty mean and nasty would love to see other views of it. Almost looks like a Stang ate a C7.

That image looks like something from the movie "Cars 3".

Shes a lil swollen. Obviously concept art.

I like the C3 Corvette fenders on the Mustang rendering, reminds me of the '69 Corvette coupe I had with Ansen's(center painted black with machined rim) and wide Dunlap low profile tires and Hooker Header side pipes.

My '69 had that same menacing look when viewing it from the front, down low, just as the Mustang rendering has.

Actually...it is a concept car....there was an article attached to this picture but I couldn't get it to load. What MY thinking is...given the success of the C7 (styling) Mustang is trying to imitate it.

Doesn't look very appealing to me. This isn't a new mustang. This is an imaginary mustang.

It's very rare to a production car to like like the concept so I seriously doubt the next gen Mustang will look like that.

Take the Aztec for example or the Volt.

The Aztec and Volt concept cars looked pretty good, but the actual production ones made you puke.

If it didn't say FORD on it, might be cool. Friends don't let friends drive Fords.

Wheels and tires look way out of proportion to the rest of the car. Also, the roofline would appear to only accommodate midgets in the cabin. May be an option for the next Fast and Furious movie.

Yeah, it reads as a C7 Mustang. They are going to drop down the front end on next year's 'Stang: it already has been shown.

This might not be a rendering but instead a photo taken from near street level with a wide angle lens, which is where my "unlucky squirrel" comment above came from. In any case it is not going to be a good basis for judging the actual styling.
