I think that of all the retro designs thrown out in the last 15 years (Jesus, has it really been that long?), the current Beetle and the new 500 wear it best. I'm not sure where on the chart the Ford GT would go, but that aside the pony cars have done it fairly well. I don't like the '05 Mustang, but I also don't care for the original either. I like the outgoing one, and like the incoming one more, and while it does look bloated next to an old Challenger, the current one can be a nice looking thing....can be. The Camaro came in too late to truly shock with it's retro design, and while I'm warming to the back of the refresh, I keep thinking that they really need to do something different to break open the market. What? I don't know, but not what Chrysler was thinking with that rehash of the '99 Charger Concept.
Come to think of it, what Chrysler did with the Charger might be a good way to think about it, because the only thing retro there are FR, Name, and the bar taillight the refresh got.
