This is the second time I've seen the 2015 Mustang, but the first in the wild.
(I've cropped all the pictures so it is easier to see the Mustang)
I was looking ahead in traffic and saw a pair of taillights that reminded me of the new Mustang and sure enough, it was!
It had Michigan plates and was heading towards our Ford dealer, but I decided not to follow. It's not listed on their website, so maybe they are going to let customers who have ordered test drive it? I honestly don't know, so let me know what you think.
There was a lane separating us at this light, and when I looked over to stare, the driver was staring at me! #C30Swag. Unfortunately, a F-150 came between us, so I couldn't see it. :(
Overall, I really like the look of it, but don't get yellow. Back is awesome. Front looks epic with the 3-bar LEDs. However, the styling of the front is iffy for me. I would like it better if they kept it a little more squared off. Also, I don't care for this color at all. Sure, it's an actual color, but the paint finish looks like it is from the late 90s; Minimal reflections so it almost looks matte, but without the matte finish. Enough of a problem I'd rather get it in silver or black.

Sweet find. Lots of dealers are getting them for training. This is probably what that is, or it's being reviewed. The embargo goes up on the 15th. Or Ford is testing this car.
Also, don't get yellow? Are you nuts?! I think the S550 looks amazing in triple yellow. I'm a little biased, but this car pulls off the color well. Do you think the matte look may have been from the rain? Most pictures I've seen show plenty of reflections in the paint.

Interesting, it probably is for training. I figured they would have trucked one out if it was a demo.
It might just be me with the yellow. All the pictures I've seen, which I'm sure are the ones you've seen, yellow just doesn't look good on it. I was expecting it to look better in person, but it didn't really to me. The rain could have been the problem, so I'll have to see one in the sun.

October is about 2 1/2 weeks a way. Three weeks from now you won't be able to swing a dead cat without hitting half a dozen V6 'Stangs.

Ford has reps drive the cars down themselves. And I think it was the rain. The yellow on my 03 can look very different in certain lighting. My favorite is during sunset or sunrise, it's such a nice deep yellow at that time. If you looked at it this morning after it rained you won't see to many reflections, but when it cleared up it was a different story.

I saw a yellow and a silver one together on 96 westbound, I thought they looked lower and wider than the last gen, pretty good looking if you ask me.

That's awesome. Definitely looks better than the last gen, but I'm worried the front doesn't look enough like a Mustang.

really? I don't think it really looks that different than the last gen, but it looks meaner that's for sure
