No you are not old fashioned and you are not the only one whole likes your muscle cars to looks meaner. I love all the muscle cars like these, Mustangs, Challengers (Cudas are the same thing), Camaros, Chargers, all of them. But you are right, they do lack a soul/character. My 1970 Dodge Challenger has what we call a "heart beat" where the engine sort of makes a different sound like a heart beat does. My other trucks (03 Dodge Ram and 06 Dodge Mega Cab) and cars don't have that same character. I personally like the Mustang that KITT is now. I don't really care for the newer ones much. But I am just crazy like that.sarfraz wrote:I quite liked the GT version of the 2010 car but not so keen on the GT500 spec.

From that particular shot, I think some of the styling has gone too European for my liking. I much prefer the current more aggressive looking GT500/KR. The outlet vents on the top of the hood look particularly out of place coloured in black. I do like the wheels on all the new Mustangs and the interior but maybe I'm just old fashion and like my muscle cars to look meaner. Its abit weird, but the new car seems to lack a certain something.....soul, character? I don't know what it is but for its small flaws the current Stang does it for me.
