I've trying to find a replacement for my E90, so I can retire it from my daily 160-mile commute. I considered the new '15 Mustang thinking a coupe would compliment my fleet. So I'd go either with a V6 and manual trans or the Ecoboost w/ MT and performance package. I finally got time to look at the Mustang this past week. I was disappointed too. I looked at the V6, but didn't drive it. I didn't like the layout of it at all. I agree the hood is big; I sit high in a seat - long torso - so I usually don't feel claustrophobic in any car, but this one I did. The wheel telescopes and tilts, but I still felt it was too low to the seat even it the max height position. The mirrors are way too small for me; I can't see how you'd use them in any type of aggressive driving. Also, the front end from the side view looks goofy. All new cars that need to meet the European pedestrian impact regulations look like crap in the front end. The Mustang does too. The rear end looks great IMO.

Being an old dude, maybe it's just not my type of car anymore....
