Looks more like a Camaro/Firebird than a Mustang.

THIS is a Mustang:

Aint wild about the white wheels.need to be chrome.other than that the color is cool.

[Professional Engineer]

Well, the color and model name are the same.

[Responsibility2nd]

I’m not seeing a connection. Not a single one.

Except they are the same color.

Meh. I had an `83 GT with a pushrod 5.0/4-spd that would require retorquing the whole chassis twice a year. It just wanted to come apart. Have a 2017 GT350 now and wouldn’t give it up. Much better product and a pisser to drive.

Curious what the “FX” package has that ties to the Fox-body. You can keep the teal paint, it’ll be out of fashion in two years.

This will be awesome

I can look forward to pausing conversations, orders, life every time one of these overpowered-for-American-roads extensions of some schmendrick’s ego roars by

What’s better than that?

I live near an AFBase. Fighter jets don’t take up this much attention

[Red Badger]

This is what my 2014 looks like..............

[Spacetrucker]

YES! Looks like a 66-67 fastback with the 289 hypo and a 3-speed. Badass ride!

[Responsibility2nd]

Some may disagree, but the Mustang II was the single most important Mustang ever.

Flame away.

[Jane Long]

LOVE it!!

[Jane Long]

Nice!

[paulcissa]

Oh Farah…..

HS friend had that (66) model convertible. It had been her uncle’s!

Fun ride .... fun memories.

I’ve owned a ‘91 LX 5.0 Hatchback, ‘94 GT 5.0, ‘97 SVT Cobra and an ‘03 Mach 1. I sold em all at some point.

[Spacetrucker]

Absolutely! Ex of mine had a 64 1/2 with the 289, she got it in a divorce settlement. Had lots of fun with that car 😁

[DoubleNickle]

It’s a 65 based on the grill (vertical bar is missing in the corral).

[JBW1949]

The Mustang II was a misspelled Maverick...

[Spacetrucker]

I’ve always believed that the Cobra version was VERY underpowered for the name of it. Would have loved to have seen a blown-out 427 in that car.

[Spacetrucker]

Fair enough - wasn’t looking that closely, first glances and all 😆
