My buddy Cameron points to a recent Autoblog review of the 2008 Bullit Mustang which they were able to test.

It’s nice to see the video Autoblog made of this but I must say there’s something that I find more interesting. A recent post I did about the Bullitt Mustang sparked a little commentary from 2 [...]

Eleanor The Second?

“Eleanor has competition with the Obsidian SG-1” titled Jalopnik recently. Although the Obsidian is pretty sure a piece of art when talking about custom cars, Eleanor was – through the movie of course – a lot more of a symbol than just a custom car. Or something :) Anyway what do you think of the [...]

Mustangs seem to be a popular prize. AllFordMustangs made a wrap-up recently of competitions that featured a Ford Mustang as a prize. And although all competitions are US only, there’s one that caught my eye, the GRID competition. GRID is the name of the newest addition of Codemasters‘ TOCA/DTM series.

Why did it caught [...]

Remember this ad for Citroen? Then you will pretty sure enjoy this one for Chevrolet! But then of course, this one rules them all. Well it’s not exactly an ad, but just because, you know :)

I wrote about the AdClassix website before, and although it has never been the idea to show you every single Mustang ad that is one there, I wanted to share these 1968 Cobra GT print ads with you.

Ford Performance

Coinciding with the 44th birthday of the Mustang, Ford launched a new web initiative called FordPerformance.com to reach out to and connect with Ford enthusiasts, albeit mainly focused on the performance cars. I think it’s fair to say I’m somewhat of a Ford enthusiast so that appealed to me.

Say what?! Jalopnik said it best with their title to go with this story: “Mustang church puts the fun back in to fundamentalism“. Brilliant.
