Ford has taken the covers off its 2013 model year Mustang update, the final update for the current model which originally debuted as a 2005 model. This model will fill in until an all-new Mustang is unveiled in 2014. Continue on for all the information…
It’s showtime here in Australia this weekend – the 2011 Australian International Motorshow is in Melbourne. As a means of celebration, FPV has unveiled their first ever concept car, a track ready GT ‘Black Edition’.
We’ve been waiting for this, and Shelby American has rewarded us for our patience by unveiling the true numbers behind their new GT350. And boy, what a beast she will be! Based on any old 2011 Mustang GT, Shelby’s first level of tune to the naturally aspirated engine is a ‘modest’ 320kW (430hp). Next up the model line, Shelby add a Whipple supercharger, helping the engine push out 390kW (525hp) – enough for a blistering 3.7 seconds 0-100km/h time! Oh? Is that not enough? Then the R tune is for you – 465kW (624hp) – enough to help you jettison planet earth!
The NAIAS is well and truly underway now and Ford is in unwrapping mode – showing off the 2012 Focus and letting the world know of it’s achievements in the North American Car & Truck of the Year. Now it’s the Mustang’s turn – and boy, is it a beauty?!
