rmc523 Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 What's with the lights in the grille? Does it project a pony logo up there or something? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmc523 Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 I didn't like it at all from the official photos, but I like it a lot more once I saw it in a live video. I feel like it probably looks much better in person than it photographs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AM222 Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 (edited) Looks like the headlight shape is not the only thing inspired by the 2015 Mustang, I noticed that even the hood shape with its taller power bulge resembles the one on the '15 Mustang. The 2018 hood has a lower profile inspired by the Shelby GT350. Edited September 15, 2022 by AM222 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvrsvt Posted September 15, 2022 Author Share Posted September 15, 2022 I wasn't a fan of the grill when that one leaked photo came out...it looks far better in "real life" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrisgb Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 Rather anticlimactic IMO. I was hoping for a new design language, but as the spy photos started rolling out, I became more and more disheartened. Real horses haven't changed much over the last nine years either, though.

ESP08 Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 The differences from the last gen S550 are substantial. It’s evolutionary yes, but much like the 10-14 S197 hugely elevated the 05-09’s design (in the vast majority of the Mustang community’s opinion at least) this car has done the same for the 18-23 S550, IMO. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 I’m getting a 911 vibe from this shot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rperez817 Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 Good article from Ezra Dyer at Car and Driver about S650 Mustang, Mach-E, the future of Mustang, and what the "Mustang" name really means. Mustang Is a Vibe (caranddriver.com) The name "Mustang" is an attitude, not a format. We can argue about whether a given car lives up to the idea of a Mustang, but how it gets there is going to change. Maybe the 2024 Mustang will be the last one that shares its basic setup with the 1964 original. Maybe it won't. But eventually, the Mustang as we know it will die. The idea, though, will live on—fast, fun, and a little bit juvenile. In whatever form it takes. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 Does the IP have a HUD option? I can't help looking at the back of it and the centre console thinking that's got to be a pain to keep clean. Overall though, I like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anthony Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 Lower models don't have the two screens connected. Kind of a weird thing to do (and uggo). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect once you actually drive it the displays are very functional and ergonomic. I know that’s the case with our 22 Nautilus. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After further review, the interior is starting to grow on me except for the screen setup. I hate screens that are not integrated into the dash. Would really like this if they would integrate them into the dash. Would love to see gauge binnacles in front of the gauge screen. This trend with screens "stuck on" seems lazy design to me...

Hugh Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 My "Tablet" is lower on the console. A little slow to start after starting the car, I am a convert and enjoy it. I feel I won't notice the difference too much on the Mustang. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really wanted it to be tilted 10-20 degrees Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akirby Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 For comparison. Having it angled slightly towards the driver would be better (for the driver) but harder for passengers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzymoomoo Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 I would have liked it tilted back a little because it physically hurt me to use it but I also have nerve issues so it could just be me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
