What's Wrong With This Mustang?

by Edward Niedermeyer

Published: April 26th, 2010

Sure Mitsuoka is a weird company, with a penchant for changing somewhat-boring modern cars into profoundly quirky tributes to classic designs. For example, if you really want a Nissan Versa that looks like a Jaguar Mk. II (and really, who doesn’t?), they’re the folks you go see. But is anyone imbalanced enough to desire a Mustang-based quasi-Rolls-Royce Drophead? Or is this just an attempt by Mitsuoka to out-ugly its own Orochi? There had better be a good reason for this monstrosity, because this Roller rip-off is deeply, almost intentionally hideous… as if the designer felt that the Mustang’s flank lines actually compliment the tacked-on Rolls hood. And we thought it was impossible to make the Geely GE look good…

Given the poor state of the U.S. trade deficit, we really should avoid discouraging Mustang exports by saying anything bad about this car.

Rrp138519787 If Jeep wanted to re-introduce the Wagoneer name, they just should have named the Grand Cherokee L the Wagoneer instead, and done a little bit more styling differentiation. They could have done a super deluxe version as the Grand Wagoneer. But all Wagoneers would have been the three row version as the primary product differentiation. And would cause less confusion for consumers overall.
