What do you do when you want to bring a whole bunch of Mustang Lovers together at one place? What do you do when you want to set up a gathering of motorheads, people that love the sound of raw horsepower, … you get them on a boat!
Now you all know I’m a [...]

Pioneer has launched a competition recently in which you can win a 2008 Mustang V.6 for a [...]

After my Mustang for Men (2) post something interesting happened, and quite frankly something I didn’t expect at all. In this post I wrote about the new Estee Lauder frangrance carrying the Mustang brand, and how I think it’s nice and all but also how I didn’t buy the sales pitch. So to be clear, [...]

Remember Mustang for Men? Well they’re at it again. This time Mustang Blue was announced and should be available from this month (in the US).
“The first Mustang fragrance appealed to his bold, daring and legendary side as he drove through the west. Mustang Blue further defines the Mustang man by exploring his adventuresome [...]

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.

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.

And no, I still haven’t got my classic Mustang yet. I should have been around in ‘66 because even if I wouldn’t have been able to buy one then, at least I could have rented a very cool one.
