Build Your Ultimate ‘Stang With Ford’s New Mustang Customizer Website
If you’ve ever hoped to build a Mustang to your tastes and desires, your time will come on Tuesday, September 20. That’s when Ford will launch the Ford Mustang Customizer — a new website that allows users nearly limitless customizations to create the Mustang of their dreams.
The Customizer will present the Mustang V6, GT, Boss 302, and GT500, each offering a variety of colors, decals, and accessories such as body kits, wheels, decals, grilles, decklids, as well as parts from Ford Racing Performance Parts and Ford Vehicle Personalization. The site will be available here and will incorporate a social media component that allows users to connect using Facebook as well as share and store all of the Mustangs they have created.
What’s most exciting is Battle Mode, which allows Facebook users to post their customized Mustang to their Facebook walls and accumulate votes in a head-to-head vote-off for the best-looking ‘Stang. Those looking to bring their customization to life will be able to download a PDF with a list of all real-world parts used in the customized machine. The PDF will be split into three categories: Ford, aftermarket, and concept accessories — and will include links to relevant websites. (more…)
Sources: 2013 Shelby GT500 To Bring Extolling Updates
The Mustang Shelby GT500 is a fine vehicle, but it’s no longer the pinnacle of automotive performance engineering it was upon its launch. All that is to say, the current model is getting somewhat long in the tooth. That is why, according to several sources, Ford is working on a big update to the King of all ‘Stangs before the redesigned and reengineered model debuts in 2015.
More power is on tap: the current Eaton 112 blower will be replaced by the newer Eaton TVS — the same unit used by the upcoming Camaro ZL1 (as well as the Corvete ZR1 and CTS-V). Ford may also end up boring out the 5.4 liter V8 to 5.8 liters to keep up with the primary target (the Camaro ZL1), which Chevy just officially confirmed will be rated at 580 horsepower.
But as many GT500 owners know, a lack of power isn’t the problem: instead, the question is how the ‘Stang will put all that power down. According to sources, Ford is well aware of this — and has been looking for ways to optimize road contact by running laps on the Nurburgring with bigger and stickier tires and some modified aerodynamics.

Ford Mustang Faces Troubles With Flat Rock Assembly Plant, V6 Supply
So far in 2011, the Chevrolet Camaro has been outselling Ford’s Mustang by nearly 9,000 units. This isn’t good news for The Blue Oval, as it spells trouble for the Mustang’s Flat Rock, MI assembly plant, which currently employs 1,700 people.
