Aging icons are complicated creatures. They have a reputation to uphold, purists to please and new drivers to attract. So, in a sense, they have to be retro-mod, or contemporary classic. How does an automaker tackle such a tedious task? Well, by listening to their customers, of course. And other than that, well ... we'll just leave that to the experts.
A great example of a modern icon gone right is the 2015 Ford Mustang, specifically the GT models. The entire lineup has been fully redesigned, but the GT trims are where the premium power and performance lies. With three body styles and package configurations to choose from, you can enjoy the 5.0-liter V8 whatever way you choose -- but always paired with the 6-speed transmission and new independent rear suspension. This is one muscle car that conducts itself like a smooth-riding sport coupe.
