The wing is a nope from me. But the front end isn't terrible. The wing seems to be one of those things Saleen picked up in the 90s when gaudy modifications were in, and they just never moved past it. They probably think that wing is part of their brand identity or some shit.

Ford authority is 50/50 when it comes to rumors and speculation, so take it with a grain of salt. But that could be something to keep an eye on.
I'm hopeful, maybe it's a mustang raptor, or sedan. Fingers crossed it's something even cooler than that, like the mid engine mustang we've discussed. It's no secret that Ford and Red Bull are developing an upcoming EV together. All Faley said is teams with F1 experience are working on the areo...
I read that as a 50 million dollar investment to keep s650 production running smoothly, with more money coming if this product is approved. Keep in mind, it's the only car on this list that says pending approval, it's not a sure thing like all the other product allocations. So I wouldn't make...
Wow, that's gorgeous. There are times where I see how a car is modified, and I immediately want to own it. This is one of those times. The s650 looks good stock, but my God, lowered, and on wheels like this, it's truly next level. I'm probably a few years away from picking one up myself, but...
This guy is a talented 3D modeler, but his designs are usually about two or three rungs over the top to me. If he dialed it back about 20% I think he'd have something. But the bigger issue, and something I immediately picked up on, is he made major proportional changes to the car, the beltline...
It was an alto blue gt on silver alloys. Sexy as hell, pics don't do this car justice. Don't have pics because all of the dealership employees were hanging around it. But I loved it.
I feel ya, I'm probably still a few years off from getting a mustang, but our two existing cars, a 2017 explorer and a 2022 maverick hybrid both use NA motors, and are extremely reliable. The 2.5 hybrid system is widely believed to be one of the most reliable powertrains on sale.
On the topic...
Very nice my friend, I especially love that first pic. The way the sharp front end, the fastback roofline, and the haunches all work together is sexy as hell.
It's kinda funny how we in the car community are like "Oh dip, that's the new mustang, how cool". Whereas casual members of the public are like "IT HAVE FANCY STRIPES AND SHINE REAL GOOD!"
Really? Because the way you worded it in your original comment, it sounded less like you were trying to figure out what this car was, and were instead saying it's design cues could inspire other mustang models. Gotta work on being clearer in your wording man.
I wouldn't expect the mach-e to forecast much of the mustangs future design language. The s550 and mach-e don't look super similar, nether do the mach-e and s650. The s650 has that heavily indented rear decklid, a sharper version of what's on the mach-e, but that's about it.
There's a chance...
