Ford has taken the covers off the sixth generation Mustang after various leaks and God it looks lovely. The exterior looks simply gorgeous and those triple-LED lights and radiator grill makes it look mean and aggressive. Not much is known about the car yet, except that it will be available in three options:<\/p>\n
In addition, the leg room has been increased and rear suspension is finally independent. You can watch the intro videos below.<\/p>\n
General Information about Ford Mustang: <\/b><\/p>\n
The Ford Mustang<\/b> is an automobile<\/a> manufactured by the Ford Motor Company<\/a>. It was initially based on the platform<\/a> of the second generation North American Ford Falcon<\/a>, a compact car<\/a>. Introduced early on April 17, 1964, and thus dubbed as a “1964\u00bd” model by Mustang fans, the 1965 Mustang was the automaker’s most successful launch since the Model A<\/a>. The Mustang has undergone several transformations to its current fifth generation<\/a>.<\/p>\n The Mustang created the “pony car<\/a>” class of American automobiles\u2014sports car-like coupes<\/a> with long hoods and short rear decks\u2014and gave rise to competitors such as the Chevrolet Camaro<\/a>, and Pontiac Firebird<\/a>, AMC Javelin<\/a>, as well as Chrysler<\/a>‘s revamped Plymouth Barracuda<\/a> and the first generation Dodge Challenger<\/a>. The Mustang is also credited for inspiring the designs of coup\u00e9s such as the Toyota Celica<\/a> and Ford Capri<\/a>, which were imported to the United States.<\/p>\n The Fifth Generation (2005 \u2013 2014) <\/b><\/p>\n Ford introduced a redesigned 2005 model year<\/a> Mustang at the 2004 North American International Auto Show<\/a>, codenamed “S-197,” that was based on the new D2C platform.<\/a> Developed under the direction of Chief Engineer Hau Thai-Tang<\/a> and exterior styling designer Sid Ramnarace<\/a>,[51]<\/sup><\/a> the fifth-generation Mustang’s styling echoes the fastback<\/a> Mustang models of the late-1960s. Ford’s senior vice president of design, J Mays<\/a>, called it “retro-futurism<\/a>.” The fifth-generation Mustang is manufactured at the Flat Rock Assembly Plant<\/a> in Flat Rock, Michigan<\/a>.<\/p>\n For the 2005 to 2010 production years, the base model was powered by a 210 hp (157 kW; 213 PS) cast-iron block 4.0 L SOHC V6<\/a>, while the GT used an aluminum block 4.6 L SOHC 3-valve<\/a> Modular<\/a> V8 with variable camshaft timing<\/a> (VCT) that produced 300 hp (224 kW; 304 PS). Base models had a Tremec 3650 5-speed manual transmission with Ford’s 5R55S<\/a> 5-speed automatic being optional. Automatic GTs also featured this, but manual GTs had the Tremec TR-3650<\/a> 5-speed.<\/p>\n The 2010 model year Mustang was released in the spring of 2009 with a redesigned exterior and a reduced drag coefficient<\/a> of 4% on base models and 7% on GT models.[53]<\/sup><\/a> The engine for base Mustangs remained unchanged, while GTs 4.6 L V8<\/a> was revised resulting in 315 hp (235 kW; 319 PS) at 6000 rpm and 325 lb\u00b7ft (441 N\u00b7m) of torque at 4255 rpm.[54]<\/sup><\/a> Other mechanical features included new spring rates and dampers, traction and stability control system standard on all models, and new wheel sizes.<\/p>\n The Shelby GT500’s 5.4 L supercharged V8 block was made of aluminum making it 102 lb (46 kg) lighter than the iron units in previous years. It was rated at 550 hp (410 kW; 558 PS) and 510 lb\u00b7ft (690 N\u00b7m) of torque.[56]<\/sup><\/a><\/p>\n For 2012, a new Mustang Boss 302 version was introduced. The engine had 444 hp (331 kW; 450 PS) and 380 lb\u00b7ft (520 N\u00b7m) of torque. A “Laguna Seca” edition was also available.<\/p>\n In spring 2012, Ford launched an update to the Mustang line as an early 2013 model. The Shelby GT500 has a new 5.8 L supercharged V8 producing 662 hp (494 kW; 671 PS). Shelby and Boss engines came with a six-speed manual transmission. The GT and V6 models revised styling incorporated the grille and air intakes from the 2010\u20132011 GT500. The GT’s 5.0 liter V8 gained eight horsepower from 412 hp (307 kW; 418 PS) to 420 hp (313 kW; 426 PS).<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n To watch the clips, check the following links out:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=4YzdTldKvoE&feature=player_embedded<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=S1HX8Iq-56s&feature=player_embedded<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=tefZ8d9_9Hk<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
