Ford Performance and drifter Vaughn Gittin Jr. have worked together for several years to create the Mustang RTR series cars. These vehicles started as standard Mustang GT or EcoBoost pony cars and are then fitted with upgrades for visual appeal and, in some models, upgrades for more performance. The latest version of the RTR Mustang is the RTR Series 1.
In years past, Ford built the Shelby GT500 in a convertible bodystyle. Anyone who has been waiting to buy a GT500 in hope that the new S550 generation GT500 would eventually be offered in a convertible, should just stop waiting. It has been confirmed by a Ford executive named Hua Thai-Thang that a convertible version of the current GT500 will not happen.
When it comes to movie Mustangs, one of the most copied of all time is the 1967 Mustang from the Nicolas Cage version of "Gone in 60 Seconds." There are numerous clones of that car running around in the wild, but the vast majority of them we built by people who were unauthorized to build them. However, the 1967 Ford Mustang Eleanor Tribute Edition seen in these images is an officially licensed replica of the movie car.
When it comes to muscle cars in the 1970s, few were more highly desired than the Ford Mustang Boss 429. It was the most potent Mustang in its day, and they are incredibly valuable, particularly when perfectly restored and all original. When it comes original and perfectly restored examples, this 1970 Boss 429 is about as good as it gets.
Ford announced the new Ice White Edition Appearance Package is available on vehicles in the Mustang family for 2022. The Mustang family includes the Mustang Mach-E electric vehicle, Mustang EcoBoost Premium, and Mustang GT Premium. The white appearance package is meant to remind Ford fans of the iconic triple white 1993 Fox body Mustang.
Sales of Ford's Mustang Mach-E electric crossover have eclipsed sales of the Mustang coupe and convertible for the first time, a symbolic tipping point in June 2021 as the automaker focuses on EVs. Electrified vehicle sales grew 117-percent in June, Ford said today, though the bulk of purchases remains for hybrids and plug-in hybrids rather than purely electric models.
Ford has been participating in the NASCAR Cup Series for many years. The Mustang became the car Ford used in the racing series in 2019, where it won at least ten races each of its first two seasons, including 18 victories in 2020, leading to the manufacturers' championship for Ford. The automaker has now revealed its all-new 2022 NASCAR Next Gen Mustang that will take to the track next year.
Ford has thrown open the order books for the most potent versions of its electric crossover, with the 2021 Mustang Mach-E GT and GT Performance Edition up for sale and with confirmed power numbers. The two most horsepower-heavy iterations of the all-electric vehicle, they put the traditional, internal-combustion Mustang on notice as EVs threaten to soon eclipse them on performance.
One of the most desirable cars that Ford has ever produced is the 2020 and up Mustang Shelby GT500. One of the most desirable option packages for that car was the carbon fiber track pack, which was limited and very hard to find. Fans of the new GT500 who could get the car but couldn't get the carbon fiber track pack can add some officially sanctioned Ford Performance carbon fiber accessories to their ride.
Ford is celebrating a big milestone this coming weekend as the Ford Mustang celebrates its 57th birthday. As part of its celebration, Ford has announced that the Mustang is the world's best-selling sports car for the second year in a row. The car also retained the title of best-selling sports coupe for the sixth straight year.
Mustang fans may still be divided over whether Ford's new Mustang Mach-E electric crossover is worthy of the iconic badge, but that doesn't seem to be putting a dampener of demand for the EV. The automaker confirmed Q1 2021 sales today, and it's an impressive showing for the electric pony car, regardless of whether or not you think it deserves the nameplate.
Ford has sold almost 4,000 Mustang Mach-E so far this year, the automaker said today, as some buyers of the electric crossover found they'd been given an unexpected extra free charging treat. Sales for the newest Mustang - and the most controversial - hit 3,739 cars in February 2021, the first full month of availability.
