Frankly, the thing that bothers me about the Mustang Mach E isn’t the shape, but rather the fact that they desecrated the name of what’s supposed to be a low-slung coupe.

The shape bothers me a lot, but this bothers me more. They could have just called it the Bronco. Or the Fairlane.

But if cars are all going to look like that in the future I guess I'm never buying a car again.

Ford should launch a sub-brand called Denver and then launch it as the Bronco. And then sell it exclusively in the UK.

No, they should relaunch the Ford Prefect and it should come with a towel

I would hate this car much less than I do if they had called it anything BUT a Mustang.

It's much more like a mustang than a bronco. Regardless, If Ford wants to call it a mustang, it's a mustang.
