I think you want to pick an argument with someone else in this thread LOL.
Ugh, whatever.

You're the one that stumbled into this with your cool guy sarcasm.

Done with you.

I love the P51, F5, and Stampede suggestions. How about 'Fury', from the old TV show about a black horse? (Too violent?)(Beats Mr. Ed, anyway) Or how about a 'Thunder' edition?
As far as the production car being named after the airplane, it wasn't. The two-seater prototype with the rocket nose was named Mustang, and actually had the running horse/tribar logo on it. It's designer did name it after the P-51. When the production Mustang was first designed, its designer wanted it called 'Cougar'. It originally had a chrome cougar in the little corral in the grille! They actually had many names for it, including Puma and T-5. Then Iacocca decided to go with horse names, and actually considered 'Bronco'. When they decided to steal 'Mustang' from the concept vehicle, they weren't sure how to transition the public from the two-seater space-age car to the production model, so they made the Mustang II. This was a production Mustang with a fiberglass nose and tail made to bridge the gap between the two cars. So as the unrelated prototype WAS named after the plane, the idea on the production car was based ONLY on horses. Incidentally, the designer of the production model fought for 'Cougar' till the very end.

Hahaha.

You end up arguing with a wall, and then say ~I~ stumbled into it?

Next time I'll use "plain talk" instead of sarcasm, so it doesn't fly over your head. Or maybe I'll use pictures instead, so your lips don't have to mumble while you read.

BOSS 281? nah.....

Mach 2? nah....

California Special? BZZZZT, nope

Actually, I really have to agree that the P-51 is the coolest name.

The car should be Titanium Silver, with a black hood, and a "ducktail" style rear spoiler.

I like it, and it could have an Air Force emblem ( circle, star in the middle, and tri bar on threw the side) That would be COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!! Sorry, but I think it deserves the bananas!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey M1,
Don't forget to mention that real nice car (GeO MetrO).

Oh No!

For you lovers of Green Mustangs maybe they'll make
a special edition called Boss Moss. Remember the
Freakies cereal?

I'm new member, but I have been coming and checkin out all the great mustang stories, photochops and news for about 2 years now. I personally like the Mustang P-51 edition. Titanium Silver with metal flake, lowered about 2 inches, special edition rims, more power, duckbill spoiler, smoked lights, more areodynamic front apron (bumper for those who don't know), Special interior P-51 on the seats and floor mats maybe even some chrome around the instrument bezel and all must be a manual transmission, or maybe the return of the slapstick shifter. Sorry that took so long, any more ideas?

So I take it that you would not be in favor of the name MUSTANGO for the next SE.

how about the mesteño? the spanish origin for the word mustang. It could be painted in a metallic gold/copper color with a beige interior to echo colors of the southwest deserts. DEFINITELY needs a ducktail, and perhaps instead of chrome horse, etc... a gold one.

Things that are/could be mustang.

Anything to do with speed, respect, heritage, power, destruction is what I used.
