The fast, fun and affordable
legacy that has defined America’s favorite muscle car for nearly a half century
lives on in the new 2010 Ford Mustang, which incorporates an expert blend of
design leadership, performance and technology at an exceptional value.
“More than 9 million customers have made Mustang one of the world’s most
beloved automotive and cultural icons,” said Ken Czubay, vice president,
Available this spring, the new Mustang features a new exterior and
interior design, upgraded materials and a long list of must-have technologies
and standard safety equipment – such as Ford’s AdvanceTrac® Electronic
Stability Control system, all-speed traction control, anti-lock brakes and
front and side air bags – for an affordable starting price of $20,995 (excluding
destination and delivery) for the V-6 coupe and $25,995 for the convertible.
The V-8 powered GT coupe base price is $27,995; the GT convertible starts
at $32,995. The Shelby GT500 Coupe has a MSRP of $46,325, while the GT500
Convertible starts at $51,225.
Contenders Chevy Camaro and Dodge Challenger sport base sticker prices
ranging from $1,000 to $2,600 more than Mustang.
The new exterior of the Mustang delivers more muscular, athletic
styling, with new sheet metal except for the roof, including a refined
powerdome hood, new front fenders, a sweeping beltline and a new decklid
design. Other exterior notables include new grille and fascia
differentiation between the V-6 and GT models, new front and rear fascias,
higher wheel arches and new LED sequential taillights.
Mustang’s interior is in a class all by itself, from the new one-piece
soft touch instrument panel, chrome encircled gauges and a center console
design that pampers the shifter for that perfect feel and level of control.
Subtle or high-profile, all interior elements are defined by precise
ergonomic accuracy and a faithful devotion to craftsmanship that even the most
discerning performance car enthusiast will appreciate.
“Attention to detail is the bedrock of the new interior and what sets
Mustang miles apart from the competition,” said Mustang Design Manager Gary
Morales.
Mustang further distinguishes itself from the pack with an all-inclusive
list of standard and optional industry-leading technologies and safety
features.
