PS sorry the colors dont completely match up on the side view, i am getting paintshop pro soon though.. I don't like the side, mainly because it's based on the R8. The front looks good though, although I'd add a Mustang emblem. I'm a bit confused on the curved reflections above the lower grille......are those reflections or supposed to be an opening in the bumper?

2b2 Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 overall a nice looking car, Reigner but what I'd like you to change first is its NAME then I'd have all sorts of styling suggestions (although I DO think the Mustang is gonna contract its outside dimensions a bit with time don't see it ever seating less than 2+2) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmc523 Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 (edited) Its a reflection.Better? What do you want me to change about the side? Yeah, that's better. And on the side.....I don't know what exactly you'd do, but I wouldn't have used a mid-engine R8 as the basis for a front engined, (traditionally) long hood car. Plus there should be more rear trunk/decklid area/space, IMO. Edited May 14, 2009 by rmc523 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timmm55 Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 Kinda reminds me of a Mustang II I based of a Lotus.....amidship based on 63 Mustang prototype. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though I know which concept you're talking about, I dunno if I'd call it a Mustang (even a II). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ford4v429 Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 Mustang with a Veyron blackout on the side? not for me IMO mustang needs the fastback roofline, 69/70 quarter windors, and a flat rearend with vertical tribar taillamps...the 010 tapered lights give it that smiley face look, and the chamferred bumpers look out of place the frontend looks like a mustang though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reigner92 Posted May 15, 2009 Author Share Posted May 15, 2009 (edited) More trunk space. No blackout veyron side either! And a more trunk space 4 seater... Edited May 15, 2009 by Reigner92 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timmm55 Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 More trunk space.No blackout veyron side either! And a more trunk space 4 seater... Now that it's a 4 passenger, is the engine up front? Front end looks too short for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timmm55 Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Even though I know which concept you're talking about, I dunno if I'd call it a Mustang (even a II). Actually that was the original Mustang. A lot of the press was upset when they didn't get the 2 passenger sports car that was sent around to college campuses and instead got a reskinned Falcon. Of course we know how that went! But my point was to bring a Mustang to it's (true????) origins and be smaller and more economical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thoughts exactly on the rendering.......I just don't think I can throw my support behind a Mustang chop based on an R8. But in the sense of what Mustang has been since that concept, your rendering isn't a true Mustang. I don't think Mustang should be limited to 2 seats.....perhaps offer both a "traditional" (4-seat) Mustang and your Mustang II? Although that would sorta eliminate the need for a Thunderbird.

I was operating in a parrallel universe......as if the Mustang roadster was always the "norm" and the 4 passenger was never made LOL. Sometimes it's good to think differently. Sometimes they are exercises in futility.......but it's all 4 fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmc523 Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 I hate to do this to you, but as I said above, I just don't think I can throw my support behind a Mustang chop based on an R8. Now it kinda looks like a G6 to me (the rear window shape is what did it for me). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
