2006 - Ford Mustang on 2040-cars
Red Lion, Pennsylvania, United States
One of 500 built, this one is number 20 (CSM: 06H0020). This car has been upgraded with heated seats and Ford navigation from the 2007 model year. With under 15,100 miles this car is just breaking in. The car also carries VIN # 1D48750COLO as it is the only one known to be stolen from Hertz. It was then recovered in Colorado and returned to Hertz again titled in Colorado (Colorado has a policy that makes them give the car a new Vin # once a vehicle has been recovered. The car now has a clear blue Pennsylvania Title with the newly issued VIN #, both VIN's are stamped on the vehicle). It is in the Shelby registry and Ford motor under the original VIN # 1ZVFT82H565226448. The GT-H Mustangs were Mustangs that were bought by HERTZ rental car and were sent to Carroll Shelby Motors to be modified. Shelby modified these cars specifically for Hertz with performance modifications, interior modifications including Hertz and Shelby tags, exterior modifications including special front end , hood, and gold stripes, etc . This was an $8,000 package added on to the price of the GT Premium. What really makes these cars stand out to collectors and all Mustang enthusiast is the tribute these cars where to the 1966 Hertz addition Mustangs. These cars became very popular to collectors and are going for record amounts at car auctions all over the world. These cars were only sold to Hertz and were rented at special high end Hertz rental centers. They were not sold to the public until the Hertz corporation began sending them to auctions years later. It was sold to Hertz on March 4th, 2006 and was modified by Carroll Shelby Motors on March 21, 2006. All Shelby and Hertz documentation is included with the car. All invoices, PO's, sales slips, etc are laminated and in great condition. I have a letter from Shelby authenticating the car as a true Shelby GT-H. The car also comes with the extra Dash Plaque with the CSM # 06H0020 that was released to the first public buyer of the car. The interior is spotless. The engine bay is spotless. Everything that Shelby put on this car is intact and how it should be. Shelby put a safety wire on the engine blocks to insure that no one removed the engines. That is still there! There are paint markings on bolts that still line up and show that this car was not tampered with. The car runs great and the automatic transmission shifts flawlessly. These cars have a great exhaust rumble thanks to the x-pipe that was added by Shelby and also have 25 more hp than the normal Mustang GT due to the Ford Racing cold air intake and tune that was installed by Shelby motors. There are a few paint issues on the hood. The car still has everything that Shelby and Hertz put on the car including Hertz tags, Carroll Shelby ID plaques under the hood and on dash, floor mats, engine safety wire, Ford Racing Performance parts, etc. Everything has been installed by Ford, Shelby, and Hertz

2013 Shelby 1000 unleashes its 1,200 horsepower ahead of NY show reveal
Fri, 22 Mar 2013True story: Last fall, I had the opportunity to spend a week with Ford's new 2013 Shelby GT500 - the Blue Oval's factory Mustang with 662 horsepower and 631 pound-feet of torque. It's an amazing beast, to be sure. I'm not sure if it was Michigan's damp streets strewn with potholes and wet leaves, but at no point did I ever say to myself, "You know, Ford is on to a really good thing here, but what it really needs is about twice the power." And yet, for people in warmer climes with infrastructure in better nick - or for those whose muscle cars live their lives out on the track, there's apparently sufficient demand to warrant just such a beast.
Quick studies will recall that Shelby American launched its 1000 last year to commemorate its 50th anniversary, but it is returning to the New York Auto Show with a fresh version based on the 2013 GT500 I drove. The 2013 Shelby 1000 whips up 1,200 horsepower on pump gas thanks to beefed-up forced induction, engine internals and cooling. Wisely, it also incorporates an adjustable suspension and big brake package to make sure those ponies have the best chance being safely deployed to the ground.
What price the world's most powerful "production" muscle car? $154,995 for starters - donor GT500 not included. What, no convertible variant?
Ford Focus was best-selling nameplate in 2012
Tue, 09 Apr 2013Last August, Ford made a few waves by claiming that the Ford Focus was, at that point, the top-selling car in the world. The automaker failed to account for variations of the Toyota Corolla wearing a different name (such as the Auris and Matrix), however. With official data from Polk coming in now, Ford is able to say that the Focus was, in fact, the best-selling nameplate in the world last year.
Using new-car registrations (which doesn't factor in fleet sales), the Polk data shows that a total of more than one million Focus models around the world. Strong sales in the US and China have led to a 16 percent increase in year-over-year Focus sales from 2011 that helped to create even more of a gap between it and the second-best global seller, the Corolla.
Ford also had the Fiesta and F-Series listed in the top 10 for worldwide nameplates, but what's even more impressive is the fact that the F-Series is only sold in North America. Scroll down to see the list (compiled by Ford using Polk data) of the top global sellers last year and a press release from Ford.
Ford reflects on radical Mustang concept that never reached showrooms
Tue, 25 Jun 2013The Ford Mustang that we all know and love made major waves in the auto industry way back in 1964 by offering style and reasonable pricing with optional V8 power. Its long hood and short rear deck, combined with a low-slung and sporty cockpit, made a lasting impression in the minds of consumers and car designers alike, and its basic shape has so endured the test of time that it's still in use today.
This being the case, you may be interested to know that the first Mustang of 1964.5 wasn't actually the first Mustang at all, being preceded by a concept car that made its public debut in 1962. This concept was nothing like the car that would eventually make it into production, with a radical wedge shape and a small V4 engine sitting behind the car's two occupants, driving the rear wheels. In other words, the conceptual Mustang was pretty much the complete opposite of the production Mustang besides the name.
Ford has kindly decided go through its massive archive to bring the original Mustang concept back into the public eye. The company goes so far as to pose this question to fans of the pony car: "Should we borrow a few of these style elements for the next iteration of the Mustang?"
