AS much I as ihave stated I didnt like them, slowly but surely they are growing on me now. Seen a black one with gunmetal wheels 11 "/lowered and it was bad as F looking. They look totally awesome modded. Better than the S197

Different tastes....

I looked at them up close, and test drove a 15 Mustang GT. I like the interior and think its the best of the 3 (Ford, Chevy, Dodge) but I do not like the exterior looks. IMO it's the worse looking exterior styling of the 3.

Many will probably disagree and looking at the recent sales figures, Ford seems to have provided the car that customers are looking for.

BTW, I'm not a brand loyalist, have owned 3 Mustang GT's, SRT's and Camaros. I just don't like the look of the new Mustang. I would like to see the GT350 in person though.

I think the challenger is still outdated and boring now....Its long in the tooth. The camaro still looks as good as the 15 mustang (has to be modded tho with wheels and drop) imo, but it will get long in tooth once the 16 hits.

When i first seen them i hated the design. Its grown on me now starting to warm up to it. In some angles it looks fantastic then others its just bleh. As for the interior its awesome. Problem is the new challenger with the updated interior and exterior is a better looking car imo. I can see dodge putting a serious dent into mustangs sales.

I like the front but I really don't like the rear end of the new Stangs.

I've owned 3 black s197 Mustangs and I will have to admit the 2015 is growing on me a little.

I was seriously considering a 2015 GT Premium w/Performance package in Guard metallic, until I ran afoul of sub-par customer service from Ford on a dealer and corporate level. And having their service department ignore me while their sales department is calling me, spamming my email and snail mail to buy a new car when they wouldn't fix my old one eventually led to my trading my 2011 5.0 (which was otherwise great for the four and a half years I owned it) for my 2015 R/T Scat Pack.

That said, I'd still like to try out a new '15 GT.

Congrats on your 2015 challenger R/T. Its an amazing vehicle for what you get in the Scat Pack trim. Its the sweet spot for the challenger like the 1LE is for the Camaro. Personally i would rather have it over the new mustang any day.

I walked by a new 5.0 that was parked and idling - while it did turn my head two or three times the overall effect remains " no wow factor " and " meh ". When I say *turned my head* it wasn't a neck snapper - more like I was trying to figure out the overall design. It doesn't really flow front to back. You can't tell if you are looking at the old car or the new car. On the plus side it sounded decent at idle. I'd take it if you gave it to me. But I wouldn't buy one.
