Cool, especially here in Europe. I was in one a couple of times (actually driven it for a while) and it's definitely an head turner. Beeing in a Ferrari or Lambo doesn't turn more heads! And that V8 rumble is really special

uncool, the concept was great but this one is awful, looks plastic and performance isn't really Mustang worth...

Uncool; i'm not sure of everyone else in Europe, but you see this car everywhere in the US. Not only that, but the ride is not even that great. My close friend owns one, and the interior is a POS, it handles like a pig(take a little turn and the tires start squeeling), and the whole car just doesn't even look that great.

SERIOUSLY uncool. It cant be. There are so many on the road. ZERO exlclusivity. Its becomes clear how uncool it is when you see 5 on a parking lot (2 side by side and 3 scattered) like I did.

Now I think this car seperates its coolness rating depending where you live. Ive only ever seen one in person. A bright yellow one. And I cant say anything else other than it was damn cool. Its totally unique looking here in UK.

Im voting cool.

Im kinda a ford fan aswell :roll:

It could be seriously cool, but that live rear axle just doesn't say, "sportscar" or even "muscle car" to me...it says, "old". Therefore, despite the styling inside and out, and the V8 muscle and burble...it only gets a "cool" from me.

Cool!!

It looks very good, and with some changes it looks even better. It's not a great sports car but it's a nice ride 8)

The Shelby Mustangs are cool, the standard one isnt. Dumbed down from the concept (a boo boo), not exclusive as others have said and still waiting for the top of the range model to give the rest of the range some aggression. It is however 20x cooler than previous models as it is a step in a better direction from the design point.

It seems the right car to buy when you are in your early 20s. Then you grow up, grow wiser and buy something much better. A transitional car - that's what I mena.

Uncool to me.
