I don't think it looks all that bad, but I don't think it is the looks that gives me the positive spin on the car.

The positiveness I have from it is at least Ford is TRYING to do something with their racing heritage and get back to building interesting cars. I know a lot don't like the new Mustang, but I for one do like its looks and might have to grab one when the SVT version rolls out. Undoubtedly the newer one will have a similar motor to the 2003 car and that thing is a fine piece of engine - even if it is too complicated, too heavy, and doesn't take advantage of its' own bits. At least it can make a bunch of power when modified.

Whatever they are doing at least they are on the right track. Now, if GM can do something more than just come out with a re-hashed Corvette it'd be nice.
