thats what i was thinking...just have the rounded headlights as some sort of premium package...i think it would be best if they just made them available at dealerships for a little extra money...then if you dont want them you dont have to worry about taking them off.

I was comparing these latest spy shots to the Mustang concept, and it kind of looks like Ford has dropped the ball. The really cool lines and shapes that hearken back to the late '60s 'Stang in the concept, have been smoothed and modified a bit to look more like a blend of the concept and the current model in the production version.   I don't know why Ford couldn't produce a Mustang that looks ALMOST EXACTLY like the concept. I understand needing to change a few minor things, like not having the exhaust pipes integrated into the middle of the rear bumper, but come on! The 2 concepts had me excited about the Mustang for the first time in years! The prototypes in the spy pics are a bit less inspiring.   Oh well, all we can do is wait to see what it actually looks like...

#8 of 2847 Headlights by fdthird Oct 10, 2003 (10:03 am)
john_324,   What you are thinking about is the Shelby that started the year with the grill headlights side by side dead center but had to move the lights to the ends of the grill after producing only a few because of (I believe) several states' motor vehicle regulations.

fdthird, you the man! Good call...I knew it was something Mustang, just couldn't quite recall. Wasn't there also an issue with the Shelbys regarding turn signals or some kind of light on the c-pillars at some point?   Re the concept-to-reality problem, yeah, I totally understand. I go to auto shows and think "I would so drive that". But I guess most people actually wouldn't...so things get toned down. I guess most of the market is pretty conservative in its tastes. Too bad.   Though I think the Viper actually went from concept to reality relatively unchanged though...

#12 of 2847 Saw a 2005 Prototype yesterday by riceman3 Oct 21, 2003 (9:58 am)
Driving in Dearborn on Southfield FWY, saw a proto convertible with the dots all over it. The spy picture looks pretty accurate as to the front, the back had a tarp on it so couldn't get a great look. Interior looked like it had silver gauges w/ leather. Overall impression was pretty good, but not as agressive as the concept car. I'll be curious to see what the final version will look like. This was the GT or Cobra version as it had the twin pipes.

did the front have the rounded headlights along with the regular ones?   please say no...
#14 of 2847 Pricing by crystal3rose Oct 23, 2003 (10:57 am)
Has anybody heard any talk about the price range of the 2005? Do you think it's going to be around the same as the other mustangs or more expensive? Replies to this message: alexnds (Jul 27, 2005 9:41 pm) cigarmanblue (Aug 03, 2005 12:04 pm)
#15 of 2847 05 Stang by snakerbill Oct 25, 2003 (4:49 pm)
Does anyone know if the DOHC engine will be available in the GT? Will this car have IRS? Will it have unequal length A arms for the front suspension? I hope so. We have waited too long to get just a re-do of the 25 year old platform. If Ford does not do this right I predict the GTO will kill the Stang. Too sad to imagine.
