    2014 Mustang Will Depart From Current Retro Design..

    Looks like the Mustang GT might be getting an IRS too.

    2014 Mustang Will Depart From Current Retro Design Says Ford Global Design Boss
    http://www.autoguide.com/auto-news/2010/10/2014-mustang-will-depart-from-current-retro-design-says-ford-global-design-boss.html
    The next-generation Mustang, that’s set to debut in 2013 as a 2014 model and celebrate the 50th anniversary of the iconic American sports car will leave behind its current styling in favor of a bold new direction says Ford‘s global design boss.In a recent interview with Mustangs Daily at the launch of the new Focus ST at the Paris Auto Show, global design head Jay Mays hinted at the progressive new styling planned for the “pretty cool” new Mustang.“It can’t lose the Mustang DNA, but it will have to signal that Mustang has another 50 years of life left in it,” he said.“In order to do that we’re going to have to take a bit more of a stretch with the car.”Mays wouldn’t comment further, but did say the Mustang, like the F-150, would retain its own styling direction apart from the rest of the global vehicle lineup.Hinting at a more future-proof design, it’s also believed the 2014 Mustang will feature an independent rear suspension that would take the already best-in-class package to a whole new level.[Source: Mustangs Daily]Check out the video after the jump:

      I hope the IRS isn't the weak piece of crap that was in the Cobras. It'll also be interesting to see what the wheelbase will be on this all new design departure.

        I fear the new design could be balls ugly. I think this "retro" one is the best looking mustang since the fox. They could keep it going for a while and still sell cars.

          Looks like 2014 will be the time to pick up a nice used 2011!

                  I think the '10-'12 body style is the best looking yet, regardless of the rear. I'm fearing what it will look like next.

                          That article was written a year and a half ago. A lot can change in that period of time. For instance, I'm kinda doubtful that they will have an all new Stang for 2014 when the 2013 is getting some significant styling upgrades. I think there is a decent chance that the next gen will be a 2015 model.

                          I'm speculating that the next Mustang will take styling cues from Ford's Evos concept that was shown off last year.

                            Ford's been over it a few times now. New model debuts as a MY 2015 and it's getting IRS and not-so-retro styling to fulfill Ford's desire to sell it worldwide.
