Just like the mustangs , we have to see how it looks and perform first!

I'm really glad someone brought this up!

I was cross shopping a WRX STI 1.5 years ago, and many decided to wait for the new model to come out, hoping it would look like the prototype shown at most auto shows, which did receive rave reviews. When the new model came out, everyone was for the most part.

Not sure if value actually went UP on the outgoing model, but one thing is for sure, good luck finding one, well at least that's the case here. For sure, at the very least, used prices have stabilized on the older subbie. If they did go up, I_would_not_be_surprised at all.

I vastly prefer the 2015 Roush Mustang to the 2014/2015 SS's. I think GM destroyed the 5th Gen in 2014, but that's why I bought a 2013. Which I happen to love

I bought my 2013 at the end of 2013. I got a smoking deal. It's still blue booked higher than what I paid. I can't find a 2013 today as well-priced as what I got. IMO, the 2014 refresh increased the value of the original design.

I was just looking at the rear and side profile of that 2015 Roush Mustang online, and it looks pretty good, although I find it a bit too "busy" looking, with far too many little angles and crevices.

I do like that rear, mini looking, Anvil'esque rear spoiler.

I would never though, trade in my existing ride for it. Not even a seconds thought. Not to sound arrogant, I think that Roush looks like a wannabee Sledge!

I bought the last black 1LE in my province back in summer 2013, and it took 3 dealers to track one down 300 miles away from here. Had this not happened, I would not have settled for a 2014...and probably driving something completely different, like a modded out 2014 BMW "M1" or M3, or perhaps even nothing at all!

I'm one happy, giddy camper today, is all I can say, and I see this feeling sticking around for long time , and I'm sure I'm not alone.

Sweet! And yea I was looking at 5th Gen Camaro's yesterday on autotrader because I love seeing the custom ones and stuff ! But I did notice that they showed the value of each year and the 13's are like 5,000 more than the earlier years! I just wanted a 11 2ss because the retro Speedo numbers ! Even though you can put them in the 13 . I'm just a little paranoid about messing with stuff like that! And yea , i feel like they messd up the 14-15's too! Except the 1LE's and Z/28 fits the refresh to me !

Yea, I don't like the Roush stage two hood but I do like mad industries mustang and the henessy mustang too! Well , they make the 15's look nice!

How about this Mustang. The Galpin Fiskar Rocket

I think I saw where Ford referred to it as shark-like. I just don't like fastback so the previous model looks much cooler to me.

IMHO it looks more exotic, cleaner, more purposefully looking over the Roush.
More "Jaguar" in it I think.

I wonder if it's more expensive as well?

I like the fastbacks but this isn't even close to a fastback look , more Honda accord coupe! To me!
