I would expect it after undertakings like the Boss 302 2012/2013 projects and the massive GT500 evolution draining resources before the very important global car release.

The 2004 model was supposed to be the all new eventual 2005 model. They fell behind schedule with that model. 1994 and 1999 were both anniversary cars and first year models. The 2004 model screwed Everything up, 2009 was the last anniversary car.

Latest rumours mention a racing heritage SE.

Well, I guess we should know within the month as mid-November is when the order guides are available.

I'm not holding my breath though.

Unless that is somehow connected to the V6 and V8 appearance packages, I would be suspicious of that claim.

T5owner 10/10/12 11:43 AM

O.k. Maybe not a SE, but a cool new Performance Mustang with Heritage.

1964 / 2012 50 years Mustang Racing Tribute.

Makes sense. Could be as well that the one I know of is one of several as a Package, but rather a post-Title

1965-2015 is 50 years :P

T5owner 10/11/12 01:23 PM

My typo. 1964 The Mustang was entered in a number of races worldwide. A 2014 Model could remind us of that. 50 years of Mustang in Racing. First one in color red. Maybe indeed a series. Stay tuned, digging for more..

Are you Wolfgang? :-) And are you thinking "Holman Moody" or something of that nature?

Yes, a HM modified car. Either a sole commemorative 'stang like the 2013 Shelby wide body or one of several for launching a rally inspired series or around the sports appearance group kits. You know rally efforts and victories play a big role in Ford Racing efforts, so why not use the experience, developped parts etc. on a Mustang as well. With the launch of the Mustang in Europe it also makes sense to "touch up" the world car for the future with some rally "odeur". Just my thoughts, so in the "Rumour mill" section, but the HM/Alan Mann tribute is more than a rumour:)

I would like to see Ford crossbreed the 2013 Boss 302 with the 2014 GT and produce a Mustang Mule that would have the Boss 302 exhaust system. A Mustang Mule would be so raw and mean. The name just sounds so tuff.

MUSTANG MULE , THE CAR FOR THE TIMES ! ! !

What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

Most likely that will exist - it would be known as a 2014 GT w/optional track pack and Recaro seats along with a Ford Racing quad exhaust.

That name "Mule"...hmmmm. Probably not :)

T5owner 10/26/12 09:19 AM

Here you go - somewhat different, but cool enough, I think.
