The new Mustang picks up many of the design features that characterized the first generation, down to the side scoops and the two sets of vertical taillights.

The 1969 models received only a minor facelift such as a new split grille and vertical taillights with the same model and engine offerings.

It featured a smoother profile than the previous models and new vertical taillights similar to the 1973-1977 models.

The rear end, at least, seems original, the high tail flanked by vertical taillights that pay homage to fins.

Cadillac's new look retains the brand's signature egg-crate grille, stacked headlamps and vertical taillights reminiscent of fins.

This time with taller tailfins with vertical taillights, thinner C-pillars, and a wraparound front bumper.

The front now had a full-width horizontal grille while the rear was also much squarer with vertical taillights.

The Landau model was dropped for 1991, but even Salon models now came with hidden headlights, vertical taillights, and a traditional Chrysler grille.

Station wagons saw vertical wraparound taillights replacing the previous "hooded" units, which were not visible from the side.

Over the course of development, the C9 also lost its vertical taillights in favour of more "fashionable" horizontal ones.
