It’s official: the Ford Falcon is completely dead. It’s perhaps best known here as a V8 Supercar, but the last roadgoing Falcon rolled off the line in 2016. Now the Ford Falcon FG X Supercar is joining the road car in burnout heaven, and Ford announced today that its replacement is yet another Mustang.
If you’re going to drive 150 mph, don’t do it on a public road with a bad record of fatal crashes, in the middle of the night, with police lights in your mirrors. And maybe, just maybe, don’t do it in a Ford Mustang. Those things don’t have the best record when it comes to reckless driving, even at slow speeds.
Ford Mustangs getting up to no good at car meets have transcended most punchlines and shot straight to international meme-dom, but it doesn’t stop the whole thing from still being funny when you see it fresh. Here’s the latest one.
Mustangs were first produced in 1964, and they were almost immediately modified, with the Shelby version being the most famous. But countless other variants also were built, including the California Special, which Ford dealers actually had to petition the company to build. And now, the 2019 Mustang, the California…
We got to spend a few hours with the 2018 Ford Mustang in November. Now we’ve got one all to ourselves for a whole week in an awesome spec: 5.0 V8, six-speed manual, and every performance option you can tick from the factory.
It’s hard to believe, but a Mustang has been booked. Twenty-nine year old Shelby Mustang Gt 500 Miller was arrested in Baxter County, Arkansas on Friday, Feb. 5 and released on a $450 bond.
I was blasé about driving the Classic Recreations Ford Mustang GT500 because of its name. “Recreation” sounds like “copy”, and why bother with a knockoff when you’re spending six figures on a car? But between the look, sound, and good lord that shifter, this is easily one of the most exciting cars I’ve ever driven.
Forget the fad diets and the workout plan. There’s only one way to make 2018 better than 2017, and that is five liters of American V8 power under your right foot at all times. It won’t even cost a lot—have you seen how cheap the last-generation Ford Mustang GT is these days?
Ford trotted out the 2019 Ford Mustang Bullitt at this year’s Detroit Auto Show, along with a highly special guest: the original Mustang used in the 1968 Steve McQueen film, Bullitt. Jalopnik’s on-hand photographer Kurt Bradley got a close look at the iconic car that was, until just a few years ago, thought to be lost.
Hollywood is still a place where magic can happen, but only thanks to the hard work of people like John Ficarra. Ficarra says he used to own a company that, in 2006, helped give Tom Cruise a vehicular smorgasbord to drive through New York City to promote Mission: Impossible III. Included in that smorgasbord was a…
The new 2018 Ford Mustang is the first big update for the model that launched three years ago, and it brings with it a big jump in power, a new automatic transmission, and some minor changes to the exterior like the headlights, which people that post in car forums have said remind them of a turtle. (Or did I say that…
Revology, an Orlando-based manufacturer of classic Mustangs, just debuted its new reproduction 600 horsepower Shelby GT500 at the Specialty Equipment Manufacturers Association in Las Vegas. And though the car is far from cheap, it takes good looks from the ’67 pony, and melds them with modern components. And that’s…
Ford said in July that the 2018 Ford Mustang GT would come with an optional Performance Pack that would include things like a bigger radiator, summer tires, and upgraded brakes. Today, the company unveiled the Performance Pack Level 2, an upgrade on the upgrade which they said would “bridge the gap” between the first…
Good morning! Welcome to The Morning Shift, your roundup of the auto news you crave, all in one place every weekday morning. Here are the important stories you need to know.
On Friday, video emerged of an orange Mustang slamming into cars and trying to run over pedestrians outside of a school in Las Vegas. The driver, Clay Green, later told police that he’d rammed the vehicle because someone had thrown rocks at his “show car.” Green, who was charged with two counts of attempted murder,…
The 2018 Ford Mustang promises a bunch of improvements over its predecessor, and now—with Ford’s online configurator up—we can see if those improvements came with a price. In the case of the V8, it seems the answer is “yes.”
I’m not going to make a dumb Cars and Coffee joke; instead, I’m going to just marvel at the fact that starting this fall, every new base V8 2018 Ford Mustang GT will make 460 horsepower (!!!), and accelerate to 60 in a time that—not too long ago—was exclusively reserved for supercars. Yes, let’s all just enjoy this…
