Five Future Mustangs We’d Like to See
Planned additions include a compact, one for the greater good, and one with some big-time horse power.

Forty-four years have passed since the Mustang first galloped into enthusiasts’ barnyards, and in the intervening time Ford has dished out, like a Baskin Robbins manager on speed, more flavors of Mustang than we can possibly count. Most have been iconic: GT350, GT500, Cobra, Cobra R, Mach I. Some have not: High Country Special, Cobra II, 1979 Indy Pace Car Edition, Twister.
While the regular versions of the pony car have kept money pouring into Ford’s coffers—even when the company has struggled to sell much else beyond pickups—it’s these special models that have kept interest high and the flame burning bright among enthusiasts and collectors. There’s no sign the parade is going to stop, either: read on for the scoop on five new special edition Mustangs for 2009.*
*Every one of these models was made up and isn’t real. In case you couldn’t figure it out.
For entire article see (pretty cute)
