The Ford Mustang is instantly recognizable as an American icon. This latest iteration emulates the classic styling of the Mustangs from the late 1960's. Engine choices include a 4.0L V-6 or 4.6L V-8, combined with a 5-speed manual or automatic. All Mustangs share a solid rear axle just like their classic predecessors. The Mustang GT offers a unique combination of power, style, and value that is unmatched in its segment. The ultimate factory performance Mustang is the Shelby GT500.

The 2010 Mustang wears revised styling outside and in. The 4.0L V6 and 4.6L V8 engines carry over. A cold air induction system on the V8 increases horsepower to 315-bhp. The Mustang wears revised exterior styling with sleeker and more sculpted details than last year's model. Highlights include a larger grille, smaller headlamps, a lower front end, more pronounced wheel arches and a smoother rear end with LED tail lamps. Interior changes include a new instrument panel and center console. The new design uses more soft-touch materials and can accommodate new technology like navigation systems and Ford's SYNC. The Mustang retains its configurable instrument lighting. An optional ambient lighting package extends the customizable lighting to the foot wells, doorsills, door pockets, and cup holders. NVH reductions come from the use of new absorption and deadening materials. Wind noise was reduced with redesigned side mirrors and a new rear mounted antenna. An "induction sound tube" ensures that engine noises can still be enjoyed in the vehicle.
