S650 Mustang design / styling first-hand description 🕵🏻‍♂️

Fyi

Stangmode posted this to his Instagram without any additional information, flatly claiming that this is the 2023 Mustang. His followers rightly bitched and bemoaned the redesign, even though it's obvious to anyone that is even remotely paying attention that S650 won't look anything like this (at least the front won't).

God, I hate people.

A lot of those drawing are great, many millions of times better than I can draw no doubt. I gotta say though, the chopped tops and big flares make them all look more like Camaros to me lol.

The camaro really dose resemble the sketch designs that came out for them ,they captured the blind spots perfectly .

LMFAO. That looks like the current one, only really shitty.

I've said it before. FORD needs to go big this time. It's their big chance with the Camaro dying and the Dodge Bros. going all electric. The last Hurrah of the GAS V8 Mustang.

Ford "Herm, let's put some Hyundai Headlights on it and call it good."

Corvette went big, look where that got them.

I'm sick of this incremental design crap.

Definitely big and extreme with these concepts

Specially with a plastic oil pan...

This is still upsetting lol. I think Ford Racing and/or Moroso offer a metal replacement with same dimensions/capacity as stock, for those interested in going that route.

Watching a teardown of a Coyote on a YouTube channel called "I do cars", the person doing the teardown mentioned that he's interested in seeing how these plastic pans hold up over the years, specifically with regard to how strong (or weak) they will remain as oil dries out the plastic over time - something I hadn't thought about prior.

I agree, I feel the same way with the heater Hoses,the plastic connections will get brittle over years.

I agree, however, the issue is companies don't feel to really change something if it works and is well received. The 911 has looked pretty much the same for 50 years, same with the Wrangler. It's because it works, and if they changed those designs, fans would lose their shit. That being said, the mustang has always had a ton of visual variety, so hopefully designers aren't afraid to be bold. The cars that lead not only tend to retain similar designs, but also inspired other cars to try and emulate the design of more successful cars. Kinda like how most massive 3 row SUVs have started to look more like the Suburban, or how the updated pathfinder, carnival, and traverse all tried to copy the 5th gen explorer's design. If it success it leads, if it fails, it trails.

This would be a nice update, with sleeker modern headlights!

They can keep the Mopar front end

 

[Elvis67]

I like this front end ,it's different

A weird intercourse between a Mustang Charger and Camaro. Not sure I can handle this one.

It does kinda look like the Big three had a Threesome. Call that the love child front end conversion.

I both like it and dislike it at the same time but I think it's mainly because I'm used to what's already on the S550's.

I like it, because I like the Dodge look, but I don't want it on a Mustang. Make it look different.
