i don't think this mustang is all about charity guys. it's also just a cool package for girls. it's like a pony package for ladies.

you can donate other ways, but if you want a mustang and like pink, it's a win win situation, lol.

Home run? Sorry I don't get it. All I see is a Pony Package V6 Mustang with some pink stripes, badges & stiching. How does that make it a home run?

And if you care that much about cancer, you don't need to buy a Mustang, just donate some money on your own.

The money donated is from each package sold. If the WIP package costs $500, they are donating half of the cost of the package to charity.

It's a smart PR move by Ford. Not really a downside for anyone.

Ok who's man enough to be the first TMS male member with this package? I would but I've already ordered my car. Darn!

Ford seems pretty selfish for only donating $250 out of a $20000 dollar vehicle. It would seem more reasonable if they donated 1500-2000.

Ford has dedicated more than $90 million in cash and in-kind donations to save lives and end breast cancer in its 13 years of support of Komen for the Cure. This year, more than half a million dollars from the sales of the Mustangs with the Warriors in Pink package will be donated directly to the Susan G. Komen for the Cure foundation.
Good to Hear!

Bud, they are donating $250 from the sale of every Warriors In Pink car sold, not every Mustang sold, come on, think about it!!! Wait till we see how much the package costs. I'm thinking its only going to be a $500 option, so in all honesty, they are giving half of the money from each WIP package back to the foundation! That is VERY generous. To give you an idea, while channel surfing today, QVC was selling a special Pink trimmed Oreck 8lb vacuum. The vaccum sells for over $450, and they are only giving $50 back to charity, thats less than 20%. Ford is doing very well.

That's easy enough to do, when you buy the car borrow and extra $2,000 and give it to Susan G. Komen for the Cure foundation.

05fordgt,I know its not every mustang. I knew its just the ones with the package they are donating money from. I apologize for not saying "only $250 for every warrior in pink package" instead of saying "250 for every vehicle". I just thought that they should donate more out of the total price of the car and not just out of the cost of the package alone. Also, the pink trim vacuum you talked about, they donated out of the total price of the vacuum, not just from the pink trim package. I am just wishing ford would do the same.

personally I think this is a wonderful thought by Ford... Giving a Donation shows what? The more mustangs you see with the Warrior package the more we as a soceity will know people care... The Mustang is an advertising thing... getting the interest in breat cancer on the road instead of just on television on a few bill boards.. think you see a mustang and your already aw'd now.. a mustang supporting breast cancer,, you might consider throwing some money to help the cause... my personal opinion..

FMC has been a major supporter of breast cancer research. This is just another way to do it, and give the ladies a car they can proudly drive.

Uh, ladies, this car is for you...

Warriors in Pink package for Mustang

http://www.autoblog.com/2007/05/11/f...-pink-package/

Only 2,500 Mustangs will be built with the Warriors in Pink package, which itself includes everything one would get when ordering the Mustang Pony package. It's available on the V6 Premium Array Coupe and Convertible models, and will include a pink ribbon and Pony fender badge, pink striping on the rocker panel, and pink stitching on its charcoal leather seats, steering wheel and floor mats. The car itself will be available in three colors: black, metallic silver and performance white. Ford expects the sale of these cars to generate around $500,000 in funds for Susan G. Komen for the Cure along with some other fund raising efforts being planned.





for looks
for cause

I told my girlfriend about this and she said, "Aw that sucks" and I asked her why it sucks and she said, "because it's only for V6's". Ahhh I love her.
