Marketable--here's hoping it fails miserably.

An original Mustang is so much cooler. Equus took an old one and totally ruined it. The front is horrendous. I know it's a fast car, but that don't hide the fact that it's ugly and a bad attempt at a Mustang recreation.
Seriously Uncool.

Seriously uncool!
1. It was named "Bass".
2. I keep thinking of a muscle car in GTAIV or V whenever I look at one of these in a picture.
3. It looks like someone took a Mustang and then decided to mesh a mopar front end to it.
4. The price. It's a muscle car that was as unnecessary to make as the Dodge Challenger Hellcat and it costs way more than a Hellcat. Also, that price tag goes against what the muscle car was about; cheap performance for the common man.
5. To add on, not just that, but if I had 500k rolling around; I rather just buy a classic Muscle or Pony car. I would get a Shelby GT350, a Boss 302 Mustang, a 1969 Camaro SS, Dodge Challenger TA, or well...you get the idea.

You could likely get most of those cars for $560k.
Still can't decide on my vote... I actually like the way it looks but that insane price...

European bloke has vision of his perfect vehicle and decides to make it in America on a custom-order basis at a very large expense? How very familiar.
Unlike that car though this has more than a whiff of NFS' Autosculpt ricey bodykits about it, and that's why it's Uncool.

Whilst I like the look of it you wouldn't escape people asking why you modified a Mustang like that.
Uncool, just.

Voted 'meh' because I seriously can't make heads or tails of this thing. Non car people will find it cool, a true, true car enthusiast based on the votes here might not, not sure if I like it as it's expensive and a little too retro for me but it's still cool... I don't know. Meh so I don't sway the votes much.

I think the big difference between this and a Singer 911 is that the Singer is an idealised vision of an air cooled 911; while this represents a generalised vision of what a late 1960s muscle car sort of was with some 21st century stuff thrown in...
So, as has been said many times before, a generic muscle car from GTA or Burnout.

Sounds like a Motherboard, looks like a severe case of identity crisis. SU.

I really like the way it looks, but I love 60's Fastback Mustangs (the roofline and rear 3/4's are just perfect). And I'm sure it goes pretty well with that engine.
I'm struggling to get my head around the price though.... does it have hand made carbon body panels, a hand built engine and top of the line suspension components (a la Singer)? Even if it does, it still seems on the pricey side.
Personally, I'd prefer a '65 Fastback with pretty much stock body, tuned period engine and modern suspension and brakes, which I'm pretty sure would be a lot cheaper, but this is still cool for me.

I'll take this one please, pocket the £250k change and no doubt be quicker and have more fun around a circuit.

It doesn't look bad, but damn, what the hell is this thing trying to be? It looks and promises to be like a greatest hits mash-up and ended up sounding like some generic album that nobody cares about. And $500k for it? Nope. There is probably 100 cars I'd rather buy with that money. And for most of them I'd still have a decent amout of change. Not to mention that looks like the muscle from Burnout and GTA and so forth, that so many people pointed out.
Seriously Uncool, and very much so.

Cool.
Don't like the Equus badge though - I'm sure that'll be a "no cost" delete option (on a $500,000 car
)
If the true, true car enthusiasts here didn't spend so much time playing computer games, the car might be polling a little higher.

Cool
Just driving down the street, I think this looks pretty cool. I wish Ford came up with this for the retro Mustang. It does get diminished a bit by the price and details. ^That badge delete sounds like a good idea.
