Ford group’s marketing manager for cars and crossover vehicles, Amy Marentic, talked of the new model and summed it up as, “It's fast, it's fun and it's affordable.”

Ford’s Mustang
The 2011 Mustang V-6 is a cruiser-convertible, very satisfying to drive. It has a 305 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque.

“Our customers want naturally aspirated engines,” said Dave Pericak, Mustang chief engineer.

Its other fuel-saving features include dual exhausts, low-rolling-resistance tires, aerodynamic front-end modifications and computers.

“The mind-set that you need a V-8 to get good performance is a little bit of a fallacy,” said Michael Robinet, vice president of consultants CSM Worldwide.

Known as one of the most successful models of Ford, the Mustang 2011 is lighter than its predecessors. The vehicle has highly advanced technologies.

The V-6 engine is supposed to be brilliant and beautiful, not only in looks but also sound.

The Mustang, having a top speed of 186.70 mph, also impresses in the handling and braking arena. Its electronic power steering assist (EPAS) impresses the user and improves performance and efficiency.

“I was impressed. We jumped out into traffic, and it was just very confident,” said Charlie Vogelheim of IntelliChoice, who drove one last week.

The car also includes new spring rates and dampers to improve quality and control, with a standard traction control system and stability control system.
