Mustang is already making major changes 5 years after it's first 'retro' look. Give it some time, it will change (if it sticks around... don't hate me, just being realistic). In fact the way things seem to be going, change is imminent!

Grandeos,

I think it was the "dumber" response that he was responded to, it was a question meant with a re-design with the influence from the 2nd Gen Camaro's. I happen to like the 2nd Gen Camaro's personally and wanted to see what others thought of that concept.

Everyone has an opinion, which like you said not everyone will like them all, and it appears some do like that idea as well.

But if the 1DERZ SS meant a new re-design with influence from the 2nd Gen Camaro..... .

Absolutely! Even better, replicate the 67 - 69 models, with all the modern safety features.

Wow! Beautiful car! Tell us more about it!

The cars are stamped by easily moveable, replaceable diecasts. There's an investment in the machinery that would have to be recouped by stamping out a certain number of cars before making changes. But, it could be easily done. They'll probably go 5 years with this body style before changing anything.

I'm pretty sure the 2010 is about as beautiful as it gets. There will have to be some changes in the future to keep people interested.

Im not sure what its worth because this color is so rare ive never seen one sell but probaly like high 20's low 30's for fully restored. We bought this one for 4500 back in 2001 and then completly restored it which was atleast 25k
