Description

Already, the buzz is feverishly building about the next-generation Ford Mustang, which will be introduced next year as a 2015 model.
The fact that the new Mustang is a hot automotive topic is hardly surprising. When Ford introduced the original Mustang at the New York World’s Fair on April 17, 1964, it was an immediate sensation, blowing past even the most optimistic sales estimates. Dealers ordered 22,000 Mustangs the day it was introduced, and in its first 18 months of production, Ford sold more than a million of them.
