    The rear ends on the new mustangs really are a turn off for me.

    A new mustang for me within a year or so is a reallity but I am really not that excited anymore.

    i agree with the above statements, the stripes are ugly but i do like those throwback valve covers. One of my biggest issues is that tail fin has a cut in it that looks EXTREMELY similar to Roush's. Even shelby cant ignore a great design feature like that

    Is it just me or does that blower look tiny on top of that motor?

    Looks like mechanically and functionally ford really has it together, so we'll wait for the 2012 makeover so they can fix the rear panel then I'll be ready to buy!

    The stripes are way too small for that car. Other than that, the car = sex on wheels.

    Definitely sounds better than the 09 and earlier GT500s. They were just too quite. Still, don't think I'll pony up the money for one of these. But a 2011 GT will be in the driveway this summer. Maybe a Stage 1 or 2 Roush, but not a Shelby.
    The gene pool could use a little chlorine.
