i think it looks awful, and they say its supposed to look closer to a 1964 mustang? someone clearly needs to go to spec savers, no doubt the price will be around 20-30k aswel and sorry but id rather have an old 60's one for that price

Exactly, theres been nothing since the Puma really

a nice medium sized 2 door Coupe based on the new Fiesta/Focus would be nice with a powerful engine

Not for me, a muscle car needs to be sharp lines and ooze power. That looks too curvy and femine.

That link is over a year old and autoexpress is a bullshit comic, hence the 2013 Mustang looks nothing like that.

Not sure what spec the 5.4 will be as the Newer Stangs here use the 5.0 4valve mmm.

Probably come with the Eaton TVS Blower.

The latest GT500 has over 650hp.
