I just can't say I like the "Italian" job.
But It'll make my 05 more of a "classic"

That's not a 2009 concept, it's just an 07' with a really big bra

I don't see the difference either, the driving lights are still there.

Yeah I think it looks too much like the current S197. But who knows maybe it's just a test car for the Boss engine.

Actually, creases and seams aside, the front end does seem to have a more rounded shape to it. The hood does seem to curve more. Something special under the hood maybe? I wouldn't doubt they took some of the styling cues from the Giugiaro Mustang.

OK, so I've added a few things to it. Check my Profile - too many to list here.

I have a 2006 GT Premium Convertible and have been thinking of getting a 2008 duplicate of what I have. I wonder what that will look like. I am happy with what I have.
If too "way out" I will get something else.

What's with all the padding? Mustang with a wonder bra or that Hollywood, post-reconstructive surgery look?
Mustang with a feed-bag?
I prefer my hood pins to that hood bag.
It's maybe a hood scoop that only inflates when you go fast enough? 88 miles an hour and "floonk", your car has a big, black nostril.

It looks very similar to the present
Stang . The front end appears to have more of a slope, but it truly is not a total redesgin like the '05 was compared to the '04 and older.

Ford would be retarded to completely redesign their best-selling auto... a little freshening up and evolutionary changes are all they need to maintain buyer's interest

More HP would be nice but then that would mean, I bought the "slow one".

This all reminds me that childs story, The Emperors New Clothes. I dont see any different feature on this car. At best it has an aftermarket hood. MrVandermey's might look the same under that bulky rubber mask.
