    For the past 10 years at the SEMA show, Sony, together with the people behind Gran Turismo, has picked a winning design that eventually appears as a playable car in its next version of the popular Gran Turismo video game. This year the winner was this 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 40 hot rod, which was created by David Eckert and his team at Eckert’s Rod & Custom. One of the judges of the unique Gran Turismo award is the game’s creator, Kazunori Yamauchi, a self-confessed gearhead who even enters the odd Nürburgring 24 Hours endurance race. He chose Eckert’s hot rod over...

    Ford Explains How The Shelby GT500 Is A 200 MPH Car: Video

    There’s a lot more to building a car capable of 200 mph (under the right conditions) than stuffing in a massively-powerful engine and calling it done. While the 2013 Shelby GT500’s supercharged 5.8-liter V-8, rated at 662 horsepower and 631 pound feet of torque, can deliver the...

  • James' HMS Mustang

    Back in June, we told you about a contest tied to Ford’s latest Mustang customizer website that would award four lucky designers the Mustang of their dreams. The process was simple enough: choose a Mustang, customize it within your allotted points and then turn it loose on the internet for voting. Each 1,000 points accumulated by the end of a contest month earned the designer a single entry into the contest. The more you promoted your car (or cars, since multiple entries were permitted), the better your odds were of winning. The winner of the first phase of the Battle for Your Dream...

    Ford Partners With Formula Drift For 2013

    In light of declining global sales and the increasing cost of motorsports, many manufacturers have cut back on racing involvement. BMW has pulled MINI out of the WRC, and Ford announced it was ending its WRC efforts as well. Dodge cancelled its NASCAR program after losing Penske for the 2013...

    From a profitability perspective, hiring a pro drifter to run factory tours probably isn’t the best idea. Even a driver like Vaughn Gittin Jr. (who just finished second in the 2012 Formula Drift championship) occasionally misjudges distances, meaning that a car or two will need to go back to...

    The story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears applies equally well to the Ford Mustang. To those of us who use our cars for track days, the Mustang GT is a bit too soft (although it’s still very good with the optional Track Package), while the 662-horsepower Shelby GT500 is a bit too hard for...

    Shelby's 'Green Hornet' Mustang To Cross The Block In Scottsdale

    While there is no shortage of rare and desirable Mustangs affiliated with Carroll Shelby, it’s hard to top a car that’s one of one, especially when the saved-from-the-crusher car was never intended to be more than a Ford design study. Inspired by the success of the “California...

  • 2013 Ford Mustang

    Ford’s next-generation Mustang isn’t due to hit dealers until sometime in 2014, likely as a 2015 model. Despite the fact that Ford has been careful not to release too many details about the car in advance, speculation over the next Mustang is again heating up. First, its widely believed that the current retro styling will go away, or at least be heavily tempered. Earlier reports had the car borrowing heavily from the Evos concept, but that formed the basis of the 2013 Ford Fusion, and no one wants to drive a Mustang that looks like a two-door version of Ford’s primary...

  • Carroll Shelby's 2009 Mustang GT500KR - image: Vicari Auctions

    The death of automotive icon Carroll Shelby has created increased demand for anything with the Texan’s name on it, especially cars. While a Shelby American car signed by Carroll Shelby is valuable, a car actually owned by him is quite a bit more valuable. Up for grabs at the upcoming Vicari Biloxi Auction is a 2009 Shelby GT500KR, originally titled to Carroll Shelby himself and delivered to his ranch for personal use. It’s not clear how long Shelby owned the car, or how many miles he racked up, since it was sold to its current owner shortly thereafter. Since then, the car has seen...
