2010 Mustang GT
this spring, ford put out the new 2010 mustang. right now i have mixed feelings about the new rendition of the american favorite. one thing that i’m very happy about is the hop up in the rear haunch. i thought this was what was missing from the previous model. it really brings it back to the classic muscle car that it once was. i also like that the headlights are a bit more crowded by the surrounding exterior. however, i don’t like that the center fog lights have a molding around them. they would look fine standing alone. and the tail lights, they don’t bother me at all. if anything, i think they’ll grow on people including myself. the new power dome hood definitely makes the ‘stang look more aggressive.
what’s bothering me is that the GT front bumper is weak. why not put the V6 bumper on there? its much more aggressive and almost gives it a GT500 look. maybe its me but i think the bumpers should be switched. but the interior, gorgeous. ford finally hit with the red leather and white stripe, it gives it a simple, classic, muscle look. and the rest of the interior goes along with it. i could be leaning more towards the 05-09 interior but the differences are subtle. but of course you’ll pay more for this interior.
overall, im not sure i’d shell out the 25-30 grand for one of these beauties, personally. but ford really hit a longer ball with they’re revisions on the newest mustang. i’ll give it a thumbs up. but if you want perfection…shelby gt500.
