It's the same car, looks wise, as what they are selling now.

Eh, they tweaked a few things. Namely apparently mimicking the Camaro and making dual exhaust outlets standard. I have to say though, the driveby soundbites of the exhaust do sound better than the LLT.

...

Down, Fen.

Seriously, if they fixed the transmission interface and throttle response issues to the 35/37 duratecs then this could truly give GM a run for their money. But that's only if the shifting has improved; otherwise I smell early graves for many 35/37 duratecs (Slowly killing the one in the edge. bounce the rev limiter every time I hammer the throttle to pass.)

I'll have to test one.. but I'm feeling that pull to the darkside again. And not the good darkside either. <_<

For some reason that V6 just sounds right. Could be post production tweaks.. but you never know until you try. I'll give the Duratec motors one thing; they do sound nice when you get on them.

With all the extras on this one I would say this is comparable to a 2LT with all the options...Not bad..
Reason it looks different in the front and back is because it is. In the front the fog lights are now down in the traditional spot like most fogs lights and not in the grill like the current mustang. In the rear they finally put dual exhaust on the V6 model oppose to the single the V6 has always had. Other then those two changes everything else remains the same.

I think mainly because all that I have seen so far have had the area between the grill and headlights Black, and this one is body colored.. I thougt the V6 Mustangs before didn't have the large fog lights in the grill, if you got them they were smaller than the GT fog lights...

Yes thats true about the fog lights, but they still were in the same spot as the GTs. As you can see in the video the fog lights have been put into a different spot all together. The only car that has those fog lights like the 2011 now is the GT500. Thats the only car to not have the fog lights in the grill.

I never liked those BIG fog lights in the grill...

Camaro LS base trim still looks better than the 'stangs base trim. Wonder how they're going to price it?

It looks like they used Matt "Don't film me from the back" Lauer's camera crew.
