To make room for the European license plate they  made the rear end of the 2013 reflect this . I know you can't import the 2013 but some of the next generation Mustang is showing up now. I just got back from Italy and the car guys over there can't wait for the Mustang to arrive. I was wearing a Shelby T shirt and the car guys asked alot of questions about Mustangs.There really is a Mustang fan club over in Europe.

. Why not try to gain new customers while still taking care of the current ones?.

havent you noticed?  this is not the "american way" in business... just look to any subscriber based model.  for instance..( my pet pev) is if your a dish or direct TV customer for 10 years. the schmuck next door gets a better deal to sign up ...when you call and ask for their price your told NO new customers only.
the only way to win is to cancel, deny their "account saver reps" when they offer you a "token" to stay.. and then let your wife or kid sign up in their name as ?"first time customers."   to get a good deal
no one in businees anymore cares about " existing customers" its not about stability..its all about growth..and existing customers are not counted as growth therefore they do not matter.
in fact im sure they dont mind cacels/signups as they see the new sign up as new business...and can brag about their huge increase in customer base.
the last "customer loyalty" exp i had with ANY company was well over 25 yrs ago. sad. dont ever renew anything
always cancel and start over. its a better deal.

Just like the mid=70's going early 80's (oil embargo). I got my collector car already.

Two friends seen the new design, went to the ford dealer and ordered two new 13's. Both should be here mid Oct.

I can see this from older more established customers vs the the newer generation.  I will have to look hard at the 2014 models myself vs the new Gen 2015 models.  Nothing wrong with that, just not sure if I'm ready to move up to the new generation Mustang.  I never owned a Mustang II (74-78) and the Fox-bodied took a few years to grow on me.  However it was more of the updated 5.0 with fuel injection than styling of that generation and I ended up owning a couple.   I loved the SN95 and S197's from the get go and owned both.  Time will tell and I still own a 1970 Mach I to remind me of my younger days.

I was not a fan of the M II or he fox body, but when the 2005 came out, I was in Love.  not a real fan of the 10 and up....but compared to the 2015.....

My friends are our generation and not young generation.

I just hope Ford knows what they are doing.

My Shelby is not going anywhere...my weekend car and I will keep it that way.

[HAIDARAVEN]

hopefully we can still factory order a 14 when they debut the 15,,,,,,,and that they keep the14.5 the current body style {if they have a 14.5}.....not liking what I have seen so far.....hope they shock us by this being a diversion

[RUFDRAFT]

My 2c.

I don't see Ford making any drastic changes for '15.

The current models are selling well - Camaros and Challengers, too.

Probably some technology changes - suspension - engines and such.

Styling cues from the Brand -- Focus/Fusion.

[falcongtho3]

Maybe not for '14, but it'll be a whole new game in '15...book it!

[HAIDARAVEN]

like I said hope if the change is drastic I can still order a 14 or 14.5
