Test drives are great and all, but salespeople aren’t terribly enthusiastic about the idea of potential customers taking inventory out on a race course to see how it performs. That’s true here and across the pond in the UK, where the new Mustang is now available.

Ford is good at making Mustangs that are so powerful, they feel as if they’re about to take flight when you put your right foot down. We’re sure whoever ends up owning the Apollo Edition Mustang will get that exact same sensation.

After nearly five decades of building anticipation for it, sweating its exterior design, painstakingly styling its cockpit, and putting great technical minds to work on it, Ford finally unveiled its 50th-anniversary Mustang in late 2013.

Let’s take a look at what Ford’s engineers contributed to the development of the S550 generation of the Mustang.

Modern electronics and software certainly are amazing, but they have their limits. Sometimes they just can’t produce an image or a rendering that takes the place of something you can actually put your hands on. That’s why automotive designers, such as the ones at Ford responsible for the 2015 Mustang, still use 1:1-scale clay models.

The people who designed and created the 2015 Ford Mustang are like character actors. Even though a teenager in Sheboygan, Wisconsin might not be able to look at 2015 Mustang Chief Engineer Dave Pericak and tell you his name, he or she is familiar with his work.

A few days ago, a brand new white S550 Mustang was stolen in DeSoto, Texas. Now here’s what happened. According to police, the suspect stole the F-350 we mentioned earlier this week, and was making a run for it in a different truck. Police stopped the truck and a high-speed chase began.
