Just a little teaser, but there are some pictures...

I'm not a fan of the rear, but I do like the look from the side..

That rear end looks a lot like an old Mercury Cougar! I think it sucks!

STANGBUM · 12-03-2002, 11:14 AM

Yes I hope they change the rear of it, but from the side it looks great!

but the next Cobra could punch out 400 horses. SVTs are also rumored to be in line for F1-style paddle shifters linked to a six-speed tranny.

Now how cool would that be? If they could get it right the first time..

Just my .02 worth. Move forward not back into time. I love my SN 95 body style and now they are going to make another T-Bird looking Pony Car....sheesh. Honestly, I don't like it but hey everyone is entitled to their opinion. I better get the 03 before they change to the new style...

I like the new style. But I'm a little sketchy on the front and back end. I want to see it in person. I hope Ford is working those focus groups. As with the others, I am a little turned off, but they grew on me.
It looks like the autoshow opens for media in early January, so maybe we see more pictures in a month.

If the front end looks similar to the 67, like rumors state, I am in. Have to get rid of my big Snake and get back into a Cobra. Fastback version with over 400hp, less weight than current, and 20K less than a Z0-6............hmmmmmm !

Like the front and that's about it...The rest of the car looked a little generic if you ask me...But, like it was already said,everyone has their own opinion.I also love the SN95 body style and the fox...

i agree, the front end is about the any part of the car that i actually like, other than that, the car is a turn off.

I'm not too keen on the looks of it either. in one hand, I think Ford is going more European with the design and that is NOT what these cars are all about. on the other hand, it may handle and all out perform better than our generation does. myself, I would be leary on any first generation Ford until I see the results. and I have been a Ford guy all my life. just my 0.02.
