Not a big fan of the Mustang but the 2005 Mustang's Retro 1960's styling looks good.


Mustang is expected to be offered with a variety of engine choices, including a 215-hp 3.0-liter V-6, and a modified 4.6-liter V-8 with 280-hp. The Cobra version will likely be fitted with a 400-plus horsepower V-8.

The concept debut at the NAIAS in January, but the all-new (production) Mustang will wait until its 40th anniversary in 2004 to make its official debut.

What do you guys think?

Hmmmm...I read in the car spy section of Motor Trend that it will take on the look of a 67 Fastback and the headlights will be round.

This car, I like the front end, but the rest of it loses me....Looks like an amalgam of styles.....

Could this be just a modified car?

I'm with Kraut, I want the Cobra version (to go with my new Harley truck)

Also, expect some styling to change with the real thing so those photos may not be 100% accurate. (remember the original plymouth prowler mule)?
