2013 Ford Mustang: Up Close
More 2011 L.A. Auto Show Coverage
Specifically, as I highlighted in my 2011 review, changes to the front end left a gap between the grille frame and the hood that from certain angles made it look like the hood wasn’t fully closed. Around back, the trunk lid protruded strangely alongside the taillight assemblies. Frankly, the car looked like it had been rushed to market.
Both problems have been solved in the 2013 but the barebones interior remains the same as before.
Make no mistake; the Mustang looks good, especially with its body-colored rocker panels and the GT’s optional painted 19-inch wheels, which complement the gloss-black rear accents. Better to evolve than to stagnate.
