The Ford Mustang is an enduring automotive legend, one that passes from generation to generation with no sign of its popularity waning. Four decades after the original model was launched in 1964, Ford unveiled a new model based on a revised version of the Fox platform with smooth styling taking many of its cues from earlier Mustangs. The latest Ponycar sat on a longer wheelbase and had wider track to give more surefooted handling and a better ride while safety equipment was also enhanced through the use of twin airbags and the use of disc brakes on all four wheels, along with ABS. The base level engine was a 3.8-litre V6 with the 5-litre V8 available for those seeking more performance and transmission options included the Borg-Warner T5 manual or optional four-speed automatic and the GT model added stiffer suspension, bigger wheels and tyres plus more interior equipment. The 1994 Mustang was available in both coupe and convertible models. Modern Mustangs have retained the popularity of their forebears, both in America and here in Australia, affording all the style and driving pleasure of the original with modern reliability, safety and luxury. The Mustang on offer here is a car that can be enjoyed on a daily basis but one that is doubles as the perfect weekend cruiser.
