They introduced IDS in the 99 Cobra and it had some issues but by 03/04 they sorted it out.

I could have gotten a new 2012 Boss when they came out for $700 over dealer cost, from a dealer I know well.  Sort of regretting not jumping on it.   These pics are a little better, but I'm still not sold.  Will be interesting to see what the halo model looks like.

this looks Nice...now it's Official......can't wait to see the Jack Roush and Shelby Edition...... :)...here's a quote from an article from Foxnews and I'm mad that camaro outsell my mustangs >:(...:

As for sales, Ford will be happy if Mustang can become the top selling pony car in the U.S. The Chevrolet Camaro, which followed the Mustang to market in 1966 and was last redesigned in 2009, has outsold the Mustang for the last three years and is on track to do it again this year, according to Kelley Blue Book.

I don't care for the new pics.  The front looks straight off of a Fusion and the rear is even worse. 
It doesn't look like a "muscle" car, more like they are trying to go for a European sports car look.
Either way I'm sure it will be damn fast for the price

I'm reading that they benchmarked the 911 and M3...so, they are not going for "muscle". J Mays had said that they intentially designed the car without scoops and intakes, and gave a more rounded, sleek look. This is a global car after all. An American in a Euro suit so to speak.

It will be interesting to see how that strategy plays out. I'm just not sure the non-American market is ever going to be interested in these type cars enough for it to make good business sense, especially when doing so really risks alienating the American market. At least they finally put an independent rear suspension in it which the world market insist on it having.

I really like the current Mustang (and I'm not a Ford fan by any means), I think I'd get a '14 over this new one if I were in the market for a Mustang.

Looks like the Fusion.

Good observation. The line(robots) building the Mustang is the same line that is building the Fusion. The bodysides are "slightly" different on the Mustang so they have their own cells which "marry" into the same line as the Fusion, and even that is more about productivity rather than being radically different. Obviously, there are a few cosmetic differences beyond that, but the same robots that weld/assemble the Fusion also make the Mustang, the weld paths change a bit obviously though. Until the official debut of the Mustang, security watched us closely while we programmed them, even confiscated some guys phones who were suspected of taking pics. After they go through paint its a different story maybe, but the body itself was hard to distinguish from a Fusion.

I was pretty unimpressed with the Mustang reveal.  I was expecting/hoping they would move away from the retro look or at least have enough differences to be considered an actual styling revamp.  The changes look more like a mid-generation refresh than an actual new generation.  So I figured okay, maybe they'll compensate the lack of styling improvement with performance, but (correct me if I'm wrong) I heard the 2015 GT will have the exact same 420 or so horsepower as the current?

Perhaps my Mustang expectations were too high - after seeing the how improved the new Corvette is I may have gotten spoiled into assuming that the new Mustang will have a similar degree of improvement over the old outgoing model.

Collector edition

1977 Datsun 810 was my first car.  I came up with $250 and my dad matched it so I could buy it.   :D

I got Audi or Porsche winning. I know you meant it's class. I think the Viper might disagree with you...and there is always Ferrari, Porsche and Mclaren.

Me too, but it's going to have teething problems,as evident at Daytona.
