It’s safe, predictable, and an example of what happens when a Detroit Three company thinks it can take an iconic American car global, adding some additional Ford Mustang sales – it’s hoped – in Europe and Asia.
The 2015 Ford Mustang continues the current look with what’s said to be an all-new platform for the original pony car, but to the casual observer the Mustang will appear as a nice freshening with a new grille and taillights grafted onto the current car. Note that those excessively covered exhaust pipes are four in number, duals to each side, which is a big change for Mustangs?
The front covers on the fender sides hide brake vents, and rear covers just about where a gas tank filler is located could indicate differential cooler vents, a common technique among hot running racing vehicles.
Can the Mustang become the pony car sales leader gain?
The hood bulge covers unknown additions to obvious engine performance enhancements. In addition, those disc wheel covers are a new disguise for an auto company. Effective in hiding the spoke wheels and huge brake discs, I think.
The first retail 2015 Ford Mustang GT Fastback when it goes on sale this fall was sold for $300,000 at the Barrett-Jackson auction in Scottsdale, AZ. A car collector and North Texas Ford dealer, Sam Pack, helped Ford Motor Company increase its charity vehicle sales to more than $3.5 million for JDRF, a leading diabetes research organization.
