i'm still against the grain on this one.. it hasn't grown on me.

i like cars with aggressive lower fronts and the sides of this car are lower than the front so it ruins it for me. my pickup is like that and i'm hating it.

i think if the front fender flares connected with the front lower spoiler and then it ran parallel with the front bumper.. i'd be more up ons.

that's what I like the most, stockish 60's lip spoiler, no side skirts keeps the nostalgic tran-am racing look, with the uber aggressive wheels and flares

in the render they have a more aggressive front spoiler and smaller flares. the car looks better balanced.

in this photo the front looks too short. the front flares look too big. it makes the whole car feel kinda off. Image

i also don't like the headlight covers. there should only be one side mirror and it should be closer to the a pillar. with the grill and the foglights highlighted like they are it makes the front look like a camaro.

the hype made me care enough to nit pick. if this was just JRs mustang i probably wouldn't care.

I thought it looked a lot like a Camaro too, especially in the quarter window area.

you see why i'm let down?

the concept was very awesome.. super balanced.. and the finished product looks like a chinese knock-off of the concept.

the headlight covers are garbage as well.. the fasteners ruined it.. they could have at least painted those black.

sorry to be so critical of this car.. i just expected more than what i see.

I think the fenders/overs were out of proportion because of the wacky size 615's. They have huge sidewalls, even compared to other brands same-sized tire.
I am very safety driver!!!!!!!!!

I actually like the build a lot more than the concept, it has way more muscle car attitude. The concept looks like it wants to be a new GT500 or something, nothing spectacular looking.

the front spoiler is super BOSS, much like the 1969 Boss spoiler.
