Am I the only one who thinks the "new" mustang is ugly and boring looking?

Compared to the classic Charger or the '99 Charger concept, the new Mustang looks ugly.  Compared to other classic muscle cars, the new Mustang looks "okay."  Compared to all other new cars currently on the market, the Mustang looks "friggin' sweet!"

How can you say that you "hate" it? You might dislike certain styling cues or performance numbers,but we are all car guys and gals! I applaud the blue oval and hope the rest of the big three take notice and not only follow suit, but take this retro thing further. I like it. I don't "love" it. Many believe there is a fine line between love and hate.
Keep 'em coming, Detroit.

I like it, but please dont tell us that you like 06, do you?

I assume you are asking about the '06 charger?  If I were in the market for a sport sedan, it would be one of a handful of cars I would look at before I made a purchase.  Without having driven it, I would think I would chose  an Infinity g35 or Chrysler 300C before the charger.  Hell, I'd buy a magnum over a charger for sure.

i like it , ALOT,  looks alot better than the 80's 90's ones.  they did a better job at staying true to the mustang than chrysler did with the charger. Rene
I won't be wronged, I wont be Insulted and I wont be laid a hand on. I don't do these things to others, and I require the same from them.

How do you stay true to a car that kept changing?  The Mustang has always been pony.  The Charger went from a luxury performance car, to a performance car, back to luxury performance, then, just luxury, then, FWD performance.
Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.  Especially if they have access to the internet.

The new Mustang is already boring to me. They gave it their all and sold a ton a Mustangs, like every other year. Now what do they do?

I can't understand why most of you want a "new" Charger to resemble an old Charger ??? Every week there are at least 6 or 7 new Mustang owners who park their new cars at the cruise and talk about how beautiful they are. Do you really think in 3yrs they will still own the car? IMO the new Charger just makes the classic Charger that much sweeter.  :Twocents:

Magnum is a nice looking car. My wife and I test drove 3 new cars last Sat. First was the C class Mercedes sedan. We both disliked it for a variety of reasons not the least of which was the cabin size. Next was a 3 series BMW sedan. Nice car, better space and comfort than the C class. Last was BMW 525 ix all wheel drive sedan.
OH MY GOD! It was my first time behind the wheel of this magnificent automobile. I couldn't any fault with it, except for the sticker (and maybe the stigma). We intend to look at the Magnum all wheel drive, but I probably made the mistake of driving the 5 series first.
As far as the Mustang, I will wait to see the new Challenger in '07 or '08 before I buy myself a 2 door rear wheel drive fun car. If it is retro, who knows? I just might ditch my current Mopars to help finance it.

I like the new Mustang a lot and admittedly it's because of the retro styling.  But what are they gonna do next year?

 Sorry, I skipped most of the thread so I may be miss speaking. But my self, I think Ford hit it right on the head. If I was a sleep for the last 20 year's (OK Passed OUT) and woke today I would know it was a Mustang. I will also enjoy kicking there ass like the good old day's as well. Better than pairing up a Rice Burnner.

Saw a new Charger today, hell they even got the skrip wrong on the word CHARGER. They did spell it right tho.

I rather have the BBQ Horse Meat than the funny looking 300 M.
