Hello,

When I was a child my Father had the same model of car, I have a lot of great memories from that time.

When the 2005 Ford Mustang debuted, it thoroughly reinvigorated the pony car segment that it created four decades earlier. After 25 years of being assembled on the archaic rear-wheel-drive Fox platform, the Mustang finally had an all-new platform and styling that hearkened back to the late 1960s. Known as the S197, this Mustang appeared at a time when it was in fact the only surviving member of the muscle car class. The Camaro and Firebird had been cancelled two years earlier and Chrysler had been out of the rear-wheel-drive sport coupe market since the 1970s. The Mustang's enormous success inspired Chevrolet and Dodge to create their own retro-styled muscle cars in the form of the new Camaro and Challenger. Fortunately for Mustang fans, Ford has not been sitting idle, and even while it was creating all those special edition Mustangs over the past few years, it was also working on thoroughly revamping its core pony. For the 2010 Mustang, Ford has taken the best parts of the S197 and fixed most of what was broken. Read on to learn what's new.

Hard to fathom people actually get drawn in by drivel.

This is true and I am so glad they did. I would have never admitted to a V6 muscle car but now with 300+ hp and 31 mpg's makes it a winner in my book.
Don't get me started on the GT, Boss, Shelby or the 45 other variations. Mmmmmmmm.

What about 2015 Mustang that is suppose to lose the nostalgic look for a more aerodynamic design. If it looks like the Evos concept I'm fine but otherwise I fear change.

2010 Mustang was nice, here's the 2015 Mustang
