This is a very nice view (if you like Retro  ) of the upcoming Mustang... (hopefully the final, final, final version doesn't get too softened...

"SS as Im sure many will agree looks like an RX8"
Huh?
It looks like my fathers 46 chevy pickup to me. I don't see any resemblance to the rx8. Please explain so maybe I can see it?

Even though I dislike Fords (I have had 3 Lincolns - and regretted each one - I am a slow learner  ) The Retro-Mustang does it for me - I think I may be dumb enough to buy one
The pictures of the Retro-Z28 that are floating around the Net are awesome...

It was some kid who penned it 1st, and they made his dream come true by actually building it based off of a 02 Camaro.

oh, ss not ssr.
Still not really. If you've seen the ssr in real life, the hood is much longer then an rx8 hood(the car itself is much much larger then an rx8). The rear facade very much resembles that of the vette rear. For the front look to the ssr pickup truck for a similar design. Side, you have extra glass panels, different doors ect. The only real simularities I see are the raised fender wells and the location of the exhaust ports.

I agree, as I said I've ridden in the vehicle in preproduction. It is supposed to be a replica of a 40s or 50s chevy pickup but with a convertible top. It does resemble the chevys of them, having lived in a family that owned a 46 chevy. It's not a muscle car, or a car at all. It's a truck with a convertible top or a el camino with a convertible top depending on your perspective.

Ah yes the FR100, I remember seeing that in the paper about a year ago. That truck is amazing and would deffinitely sell a lot more than the crappy SSR.
