The obvious downside is that it's still a Mustang.
is it possible for Ford to shake that stigma? Kinda like Kia and Hyuandi has?

The only similarities I see in those two cars is the gray paint

That Mustang is probably one of the better looking ones over the last 20-25 years I guess.....but to put that Ford pic in the same post as an Aston Martin pic as if to compare them in some way is ludicrous.

yeah you're right. That Mustang I'm sure would smoke that AM in pretty much every performance category. My bad.

Several prominent auto enthusiasts, car magazine articles and tv shows have made reference to the 2015 Mustang showing slight similarities to the Aston Martin.

I'm guessing you know more than all of them as well?

Not a fan of Mustangs, but that's a good looking car.

I don't like Mustangs, but I think the front end is really attractive.

Strongly considered getting a new mustang gt, my 05 is getting played out. I think I'm just gonna get a new fx4 F150 and buy a used 11' mustang gt.

You'd have to be a complete moron to not see Aston styling cues in the new Mustang. The new Mustang grille and rear quarter panels look pretty damn similar.

that's all i was saying. That color in the OP with the redish color seats add to the luxury component of the car that has well, never had a hint of luxury before.

Won't even consider a convertible until they stop using rag tops.



Mechanism needed to lower a hard top adds a significant amount of weight. That why they aren't used more often I imagine.
