Well, Ford is trying to move away from the retro look of the last-gen Mustang. When the Mustang made its original debut, it was a very futuristic design. Ford is trying to create a design that reflects the heritage of the car, while giving it a more modern look.
I understand that they want to move into a modern look. But don’t you agree with me that you can achieve so many modern looks, but yet this one they chose, looks a lot like the particular car I named earlier? Yes nowadays it’s hard to create a unique look. But atleast try to pick something that isn’t so known on a particular car or brand. Imagine they put in Angle eyes headlights, like BMW has been doing? Or the big air intake on the hood like an Impreza WRX STi has been doing for the last 20 years? Sure the car looks nice, but in my opinion, they really needed a different approach…

What do you mean by “a different approach”?
Design it differently than they did now
So abandon the original Mustang design and go with something entirely different? It would be interesting to see how Ford would do that.
No, the changes they did now to make it look modern, should be reverted and then look at other ways to make it look modern.
Have you guys seen it in person? I saw it in the Miami Auto show, and it looked very distinctively Mustang. The car is not 100% photogenic, as the pictures don’t pick up all of the little aggressive cues on the car. In person, it does still look semi-retro. I think they did very well; consider the markets for it. They will still have the diehards, now they will have the people who want a slightly more understated car, and it can be less understated too depending on the color, splitter, spoiler, etc.
I have seen it in person when I travelled up to see the NY Auto Show, and I agree it looks better in person. From this angle, and in black, I think it looks much better:

Well, until this century, or even decade, it always has been Ford 'Murica and Ford Europe, completely seperate. I think this is the first 'stang to be sold in Europe (correct me if I’m mistaken), so they’re going for a more “universal” look with styling influences of the other continents. I personally like the looks though, except the tail should’ve been a bit more aggressive in my opinion, but oh well, it really does look like a modern Mustang though, with the triple taillight. I might get one secondhand when I graduate, if I can save up enough…with the 2.3l i4 probably, I’m afraid 
If it’s going to be just as dirt cheap like it has been (Hopefully 25-32k€?), it would make a great deal.
They’ve sold some mustangs in europe, but only recently. I think since like 2008 or something or then 2012?
I don’t think that they ever sold the V8 Mustang in Europe until now.
Nope, never V8s, V8s had to be imported, costing tons of money, atleast, for The Netherlands.
Not sure if this is factory, or modded afterwards.
I dont even know if I like it…
I like how I could just see those who are in the know and aren’t by reading posts.
Ford sold the Mustang officially (With V8 to boot!) in Germany as a Ford T5 for YEARS, like from like at the beginning in 1964.5 till like 1979 when the name was reverted back to Mustang. It was one of the most popular American car in Germany. It wasn’t an obscured, not in the brochure, sold just a few of them for fun and marketing either. They sold them in great number, enough for them to keep bringing them in for several years. And there’s still the matter of UK Ford selling them in the early years… but that’s not as well documented.
A Mustang in European Ford Dealership hardly is a new thing.
Well the recent ones (after I was born) had to be imported, so I didn’t know. 
And woha I’m pretty very sure it’s modded. “UTE”/pickup style (modded) cars were a trend in the Japanese drift scene for some time.
I’m not even sure if that’s a real Skyline, look at the rear fender, it’s missing the typical rectangle arc flare, also, look at the seats and the door(mirrors).
I suspect it’s some Japanese pickup truck with a R34 front end swap.
I was thinking of a modified Holden pick up truck.
A quick Google search turned up this Silvia pickup, I kinda like it. 
It doesnt look bad, nor that pickup with R34 front, but compared to the real deal, so a real Silvia, or a real R34, these things are waaaaayyy down the ladder IMO
Not Photoshopped. Built by BMW M for April Fool’s.
They thought it was funny.
You can call me crazy, but I think there might just be a market for this…
