The Ford Mustang was born from an ambitious vision of Lee Iacocca, then a member of the Ford board, who realized the need to create a car aimed at the younger generation.
The result was the “Special Falcon”, based on the 1960 Ford Falcon.
The car debuted in New York World's Fair, on April 17, 1964, with great fanfare.
The affordable starting price (adjusted to today's values, around R$ 105 thousand) and the wide range of customization options made the Mustang an immediate success.
On the first day, 22 thousand requests were made, and the first year of sales exceeded 419 thousand units.
Its universal acceptance was unique: whether for young people or executives, the Mustang was the ideal car.
Although the Mustang has a galloping horse on its emblem and is known as “Pony Car”, his inspiration came from an airplane: the P-51 Mustang, used in World War II.
In 2024, it remains one of the most recognized sports cars in the world, proving that some legends never go out of style.
If you're looking for a car that combines history, power and style, the Mustang is the right choice.
