the entire roof line, the beautiful wheels it had, the front end was much more agressive, the tail lights were beautiful on the concept, freakin hideous on the production imo. the exhasut is bleh.
they promised us a mind boggling new mustang sure to blow everyones mind... well the just gave us another of the same ole same ole imho. i thought the idea was to come out and spank the corvette in speed and style and have disgusting sales #'s to boot. even if they make it fast i'd still take a vette. if it was more like the concept i'da taken it any day over a vette
edit: on balance i do think the interiors are still very nice.

Others seem to be in disagreement. I dont see what on the roofline changed , maybe you just dont like the new window? I admit I dont like the bumper around the exaust , but you have to remember its a stock automobile. Aftermarket bumpers will fix that problem quickly.
Id say you have to wait for the Cobra to spank the 50k Vette.

the roofline was much shorter on the concept.. a bit edgier as well. and that 3rd window is ugly as sin. as are the massive window mouldings. on the bumpers i suppose i can let that slide, you're right on the aftermarket. but the front end headlights/grille/etc doesnt seem as edgy as the concept was either.
i also like the headlight areas much better on the concept, front bumper seems cleaner, the side scoops are subtle and beautiful.
this tail was much better
and the sail windows again are god awful fugly compared to those rad small scoops on the concept.
i suppose with a bit of body work and a kit though you could probably get close.

I agree the concept looked much better but I don't think the production version is bad. Those rear windows are pretty ugly though and pointless more or less. I always thought the rear on the concept looked a lot like the old 300z rear and I wonder if maybe they changed it up a bit because of that. The front on the production looks like they incorporated some of that "elanor" concept front end, looks ok to me though. If they had left those windows out and kept the concept rear end it would look tons better though. It seems to be lacking that "tough" look that should be synonymous with the 'Stang though.

The front was better in the concept, but still looks good. The rear looks real good, the concept looked good too, but I like the production better. The wheels on the V6 (probably 16's) looks like crap, hope they give an upgrade for the V6 options to change wheels. The V8 wheels =  AND when will the be avalible??!!

Not bad in my opinion. But just remeber what Ford said, " The production V6 and GT will be similar to the concept, but the Cobra will excede it". I can't wait to see the cobra
