2011 Ford Mustang V-6

2011 Ford Mustang V-6

The 2011 Ford Mustang is generating a lot of buzz, and not just for the return of the 5.0. The V-6 is the first to be rated over 30 mpg and 300 horsepower, and Ford is making sure the world knows it--in part, with this spot, due to air tonight during the American Idol results show.

A longer, 60-second version of the spot was posted briefly to the FordMustang YouTube account, then pulled down by Ford and replaced with this 30-second version. We'd expect the full thing to be on TV tonight, but the preview gives you a taste of what to expect. On the off chance that you weren't planning to be one of the mega-millions of viewers tuning in to see the Top 6 elimination, this will save you the grief of watching just for the commercial.
