If they needed to lower air intakes put them out to the side and put the lower fog/parking lights in the middle like the 69 camaro's are, the 69's dont have the lower air intakes I know. If they would have done this they would not be able to make em fast enough, LIKE the MUSTANG.

I think GM did the right thing not going too retro as by the time it hits Showrooms, the Mustang will have a at least a front end update to get the design a little more current.

Personally I was unhappy with the plastic GEO Storm styling the CF4 cars took in 1993, good to see the original pony car design making a return
