Product Details
Product Description:
The 2005 Mustang, to be released by Ford forty years after the original Mustang, will be both a departure and a return to tradition, as Ford steps away from the aging Fox chassis for its flagship car, yet brings back styling cues from the most popular Mustangs of the past. Ford found inspiration for the new Mustang from its 1967 Fastback model. The 2005 retro-look pony car will include a 4.6-liter, V-8 engine with 300 horsepower — the highest horsepower of any previously built Mustang. This book traces the new Mustang’s evolution from the drawing board to the production line to the street. A photographic celebration of the new car, this book delivers the inside story behind the rejuvenation of one of the most storied cars in automotive history.

- Being the owner of a brand new 07 Mustang this book hit the sweet spot, it was great to learn how this new generation of Pony car was born; the information and photographs where first class, so good in fact I am reading it a second time.
If you are passionate about these American Legends and like me want to see them live forever I can thoroughly recommend this book. - Cool book for a cool car

- How many 2005 model cars get their own hardcover book? That's how cool the 2005 Mustang was. I own one and it was a big investment for me. At least I could buy a hardcover book on its development and history. I've enjoyed both the car and the book.
- The Old Breed, Revived
- Avg. Customer Rating: 5 Stars
- This is the definitive book on the new generation Mustang circa 2005. I own the car as well as the book, so I know whereof I speak. It's a retro ride back to the muscle cars of the late 60's and early 70's, and the book gives all the details of which ones influenced the new design. Ford has literally gone back to the future with this design, and if you want to know the story of the next generation pony car, this book is definately it.
- Good overview of new Mustang
- Avg. Customer Rating: 4 Stars
- Matt gives a good overview not only of the car itself but also of its development and manufacture. A must for anyone interested in the latest Mustang.
