There is a profound difference between ditching the retro look and ditching the car's traditional design cues. I love the retro fad myself, but if it's time to move on from it, I can support that. However, in the Mustang's case, that doesn't necessarily mean I want to see the fastback, tri-bar tail lamps and split side window cues that I believe define the car, be deducted from subsequent designs.
Someone brought up Porsche which made perfect sense. A Porsche has always looked like a Porsche while still staying fresh. The Corvette is another example of this at work. Why should the Mustang be any different?
The bad part about this is that whatever the Mustang does, the Camaro is going to follow suit. :(
