It's the best I've seen yet on these retro Mustangs. It's interesting that they based it on the old model, but I think the look they were going for works better with that design anyway.

WOW!!! Looks nice and very expensive! I don't care for the wheels though, but hey, there had to be something I could complain about! The color is killer!

Shiny Side Up!

Classy.  Is it a hatch back?

Looks like a better version of the old concept for the 05-09 Mustang. Even uses some parts off it. I think it looks a bit oddly proportioned.

It looks like a really tiny trunk, so fastback?

Dig the front.  It's perfection.

Mixed feelings on the back.

No to the rims.

The rims are the only turnoff on this vehicle to me i love the FB look on it.

The rear end needs to be a little "busier" so it's not so flat looking, I think the design of Saleen rear would go perfectly on that car.
I also agree that the wheels need to be different, not sure what they should be, but I don't care for what's on there.

I thought this was an interesting comparison:

I'm thinking an elanor body kit to make it look like the GT500 fastback! 

Doesnt need it though, this thing is freaking awesome, too bad theyre only making 45 of them though:(

If I ever see another Eleanor clone, it'll be too soon.
