Default Re: Giugaro Mustang...wow!!!

Alright I'm an old guy and my opinion is...like the current Mustang a real lot but there's way too many of them on the road already and who could afford the special models they're making just to be a little different (GT, GTH, Shelby GT500, Shelby GT, Saleen, Rousch, etc, etc). Don't like the Camaro-side view not too bad, front view, get me a barf bag, Challenger I like what I've seen so far. Problem with the concepts is the general shape translates to the production car but the fit, finish and quality of materials goes down the tubes when going from producing a multi million dollar "one off" to a $30,000 production vehicle. Don't know how Chrysler plans on taking the 300C platform and turning it into a pony car sized vehicle. Haven't seen it yet off its high show car turntable and down on the ground so I can get a true sense of its proportions. I like what I see so far. But just look at the job Chrysler has done turning its show cars into production vehicles, Viper, Prowler, Crossfire and even PT Cruiser are all very close to production car in appearance and design. I think the Crossfire interior especially is unbelievably close its show car roots. We'll see what happens with the Challenger.
