The Ford folks quite rightly spared no expense on the launch of their latest and greatest Mustang tonight at Barker Hangar at Santa Monica CA on the eve of the 2008 Los Angeles International Auto Show. Well they actually spared a little—on the food—popcorn and Doritos aren’t the best way to a portly auto journo’s [...]
While the 2010 Ford Mustang will be stealing the FoMoCo spotlight at this year’s LA Auto Show, the company should have a few other interesting rides on tap. Among those are two hybrids also slated to go on sale in 2009, the Ford Fusion and The Mercury Milan. Both cars are an effort to topple [...]
Yes, right, the 2010 Ford Mustang is live on the web! And Mr. Justin and I talk about it. Cause like, you know, new Mustang! Anyhow, we both have high hopes. We also babble on about the new Cube and if they ‘Mericanized it. And then we (kinda) get into Porsches. For just a momemt. But [...]
The wait is over. Ford’s never ending teaser campaign essentially resulted in the entirety of the online auto media screaming, “Stop! Please stop!” Today it stops. And you know what? That’s a good looking Mustang. We don’t know too much at this moment, but we’re posting the propaganda laden press release after the jump. However, [...]
Behold! The Carbon E7—supposedly the next chapter in pulling your ass over—is a purpose-built cop car. Evidently, police everywhere have felt inadequate in the face of EMT’s, firefighters and even mail carriers because those public servants all get special vehicles. Police, on the other hand, are relegated to redecorated Crown Vics. Carbon Motors is here [...]
Someone took the phrase “white trash Ferrari” a little too far. You’re looking at way, way too much work to turn a 1978 Ford Mustang into a Ferrari 308 Replica. The owner claims the donor was a ’79, but that rear sail glass doesn’t look anything like the bits out of the fox body. Our [...]
Few races out there are more Fiendish than the Baja 1000. Absolutely brutal conditions, insane entrants and bad ass metal make for a competition we can get behind. Honda is out to tackle the Baja 1000 once more with their Ridgeline pick ‘em up, complete with a serious light bar, a brush guard and meaty [...]
Ford’s enlisted the help of some big names to promote their newest crossover. The Flex hasn’t seen the hottest sales since it hit the market, thanks largely to the overall down turn in the market. Whether or not the tuning crowd will have what it takes to rip the crossovers off the lot remains to [...]
Everybody’s talking about SVT this week, whether it’s Baja race trucks or our own Loverman’s erotic encounter with the production F-150 Raptor. Two months ago, however, we had a chance to leave the ground in a decidedly non-trucky SVT product — their “Red Dragon” GT500KR pre-production test car. Strap in and ride with me as [...]
Behold, the power of eBay. While Ford has pelted the internet with shadowy glimpses of the next Mustang and rolled test mules from one corner of this country to the next, it looks like eBay took the honor of unveiling the next pony. The car showed up on the internet auction mecca as our favorite [...]
