2010 Ford Mustang - A Closer Look (bland annat kvinnlig kvalitetskontroll av inredningen :-) ) Team Mustang customizes a 2010 Ford Mustang GT at the L.A. Auto Show.

Största och Dyraste "bilreleasen" någonsin!? :-)

Från "Ford Mustangs | Mustang GT, Cobra, Saleen & More - Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords Magazine" (Det som jag fetstilat låter ju ganska trevligt :-), trots att det kanske blir lite "dyrt") "After much anticipation, Ford Motor Company revealed the 2010 Mustang to the public at the popular Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, California, which plays host to some of the most exclusive events in and around Tinsel town. But the hangar wasn't the focus at this gala event, it was the incredible 2010 Mustang, which proved to be the star of the show. For 2010, Ford gave the S197 platform a Hollywood makover, fashioned with all new skin, more horsepower, a refined interior and improved safety and suspension. The lines are simply amazing--you can see the retro, but it's modern, both stylistically and mechanically. Under the hood you'll find 315 horsepower and 325 lb-ft of torque, along with a redline that has been bumped to 6,500 rpm. (The base V6 produces 210 hp and 240 lb-ft of torque.) If you're looking for more power, we speculate the Shelby, (which is slated to be introduced in January), will fill your need. However, Ford stated that it will offer a Ford Racing Performance Parts dealer-installed blower for the GT model that will retain the original powertrain warranty. Moving on, the GT suspension has an increased spring rate that is coupled with shock and anti-roll bar tuning to produce flatter handling, better control and reduced understeer. And there are many new options and features, including a factory-installed glass roof, 17 wheels and tires on the V6 and 18- and 19-inchers on the GT. Additionally, ABS, TCS and AdvanceTrac (Ford's Electronic Stability Control) is standard. Other features (some optional) include "capless" fuel fill, covered cup holders, dual-zone temperature control and SYNC (with 911 assist and vehicle health report), rear sequential tail lights, next generation navigation with 8-inch screen, rear video and much more. The interior space is refined from the previous model with a newly designed one-piece soft-touch instrument panel, new steering wheel, full 360-degree gauge bezels, soft armrests and a new console design. There is also new seating with unique sew styles and coordinating door inserts. There is a variety of color options. You'll also find a locking console lid, improved ambient lighting and some new shifter handles. Overall, we love the latest Pony car. Ford emblazoned the iconic Mustang with a modern touch, yet it maintained the classic styling that Mustang owners have come to love. From new-look grill, to the power-bulge hood, sharp lines and the sequential taillights, the 2010 Mustang is a home run. Once again, Ford got it right. Its engineers and designer listen to the Mustang community and the solution is spot on. This is a winner in our book but there's more to come. Be sure to check out the March 2009 issue of MM&FF for a closer look at the 2010 Stang, and in short term we'll have a full drive report and performance testing."

"For as long as there have been Mustangs, there has been Ford's Dearborn, Michigan, assembly plant. The Dearborn Assembly Plant-or D.A.P., as it is affectionately known at Ford-has been building Mustangs ever since production began in early 1964. Few nameplates survive 40 years, much less continue production in the same plant for just as long." "our attention immediately turned to Dearborn, which was scheduled to close in May. A call to Ford SVT boss John Coletti, and a call back from Dearborn Assembly Plant Manager Rob Webber, confirmed our wildest fantasy: We were invited to the closing of one of the greatest chapters in Ford history and the opening of two new ones. The Dearborn Truck assembly plant, a brand-new, state-of-the-art facility right next to Dearborn Assembly, represents a new chapter in the rich Dearborn Rouge history. The second plant is AutoAlliance, the Ford/Mazda joint venture in Flat Rock, Michigan, where the all-new '05 Mustang will be built. AutoAlliance has been building new cars since 1988, including the Ford Probe, Mazda 626 and 6, and the more recent Mercury Cougar. Mustang quality will be the best it has ever been at AutoAlliance. Webber graciously invited us into the Dearborn Assembly Plant for an up-close look at the last five days of '04 Mustang production before wrapping it all up at precisely 1:07 p.m. on Monday, May 10, in a crowd of more than 1,000 people. It would prove to be one of the most incredible journeys of our careers as historians and journalists."

Mustang has been the best-selling sports car for 22 straight years. DEARBORN, Mich., July 2, 2008 - The Fourth of July weekend is a time to reflect on American ideals and American icons. One of the most-iconic cars in American history is the Ford Mustang. With a heritage stretching back nearly a half-century, the Mustang has become a part of the American fabric. Mustang has been the best-selling sports car for 22 straight years, and there are plenty of reasons why: Unrivalled heritage: More than 9 million Mustangs have been sold since the introduction at the 1964 New York World's Fair. It's the all-American car. Mustangs have always been built in America and the 2009 Mustang continues the tradition, rolling off the lines in Flat Rock, Michigan. The performance continues: The current model's 4.6-liter V8 produces 300 horsepower and 320 foot-pounds of torque at 4,500 rpm. The 4.0-liter, single-overhead cam V6 produces 210 horsepower and 240 foot-pounds of torque at 3,500 rpm. For the truly wild, a 5.4-liter Supercharged V8 is available with 500 hp and 480 foot-pounds of torque. Fuel Efficient: The V6 has best-in-class fuel economy, sporting 26 miles per gallon on the highway. Best-in-Class Safety: The 2008 Mustang GT earned a five-star safety rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the only convertible to garner that mark after tests for frontal crash, side impact and rollover. The Mustang convertible also was tops in highest side-impact performance as tested by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). Best in class safety continues on the 2009 model. A Steed for Every Need: From Bullitt to Cal Special to GT500 to Warriors in Pink to the Pony Package, Mustang offers a wide range of choices. Whether it's show, go, making a statement about a good cause or a little of each, there's a Mustang for every taste. Glass Roof: New for 2009 is a factory-installed Glass Roof, for that open air feel in any weather. With summer in full swing, a convertible is a popular choice. The legendary performance and hot appearance make it easy to understand why Mustang has long been America's best-selling convertible. Get it before it's gone: Due to the short model year, it the 2009 45th Anniversary Mustang will be one of the rarest model years of Mustang ever. Most Customized Vehicle on the Planet: Make it your Mustang. With hundreds of factory and aftermarket components available, you can make your Mustang look, feel and perform just the way you want it. A legacy of quality and value: Mustang received top honors as the Best Midsize Sporty Car by J.D. Power and Associates in its Initial Quality Study in 2007. In addition, VEHIX TV™ just named Mustang among the vehicles with the best resale value, beating out models from Honda, BMW, Porsche, Audi and nearly all domestic automakers. Powerful, efficient, safe and American. That's the Mustang. "Our Mustang has the most fuel efficient V6 in its segment," said Fritz Wilke, Mustang brand manager. "For serious enthusiasts, we have Mustangs that provide serious horsepower. Either way, when you own a Mustang, you are part of something special - a real piece of American heritage that goes back 45 years."

"Competition is good. Winning is better. Whether on the race track or on the street, the best way to observe the sleek lines of a Porsche is as it disappears in the rear view mirror of a Griggs Racing GR40 Mustang. Available in three serialized versions: Street, Track, or Race, the GR40 Mustang was engineered around a single-minded goal: creating a turn-key vehicle that delivers world-beating performance at a fraction of the cost of European performance cars.
