In about three months time, or 93 days and counting, Ford will reveal the 2010 version of its Mustang legend to the public. A new mini site to whet our taste buds is now live. This is the new generation muscle tussle which has already seen Dodge and Chevrolet play out their hands in Challenger and Camaro respectively. So Ford will be joining the fight a little late and could perhaps have waited just a year too long. Or is it a matter of saving the best for last?
Anyway, we don’t have much in the way of info at this point in time, safe to say the mini site has a few fast-cut videos and smoky burnouts to keep interest on the rise. This is particularly important because the new generation of car buyer is not necessarily a mine of knowledge wealth as far as the whole pony car thing is concerned. And this is the buyer who is internet and mobile savvy and will want to know why he/ she should even take a second look at the 2010 Ford Mustang.
We’d like to point these youngsters not to tradition but to the future. The future as represented by Giugiaro back in 2006 in the form of its Mustang Concept. We thought this concept was exceptionally hot in its design and delivery, and therefore only hope at least a few elements of it have made their way into the final car. So if you are as interested this pony as we are, you'll register on the mini site as we have.

Yes, it is specifically designed so that fat people can get back out again and enjoy all the other varieties of food, not just the drive-ins.

Im happy to see they finally got rid of those big gay black plastic mirrors, they didnt suit the car at all.

Unless Ford has found some way to engineer a proper IRS, the mustang doesn't stand a chance against the Camaro, let alone Mercedes' multi-link under the "posterior" of the Challenger.

It really doesn't. From the overall shape of the car, it looks exactly the same (yes, under the camo). It doesn't look any bit rounded or spiffy as the Camaro does. I think Chevy has trumped Ford with their Camaro. My prediction is that this new Mustang is going to be no different than the other ones out right now, except for some very minute details that would need a second look over to catch.
I'll hold back on further comments until they release this same design when the camo comes off.

Another piece of crap from Ford! As for independent rear suspensions (IRS)....................forget it. Ford is too broke to contemplate that.

For thos wondering, that is what the new 2010 Mustang is supposed to look like. It looks damn nice, but judging from what I see in these spy shots and the curves that are being hugged by the Camo gear on it, it is not going to look like this concept. Which is sad. Ford may have actually turned heads. But they choose the route of failure. I seriously don't know what is wrong with the American Car industry anymore. It is as if they want to fail.
