What happens when you are out after dark in a 2013 Ford Mustang and you can’t quite make out where the curb is…or you want to make sure people know (beyond the exhaust note) what you just rolled up in?  Ford’s got the answer with a slick, albeit borderline tacky, new option on the new 2013 Mustang.  It is a pony projection light which is portrayed via the lenses beneath the side view mirrors.  Activated immediately after the driver unlocks the door, this projection is sure to let you, and everyone else within the area, know for sure it’s a legend you have ridden into town.

It’s almost October, fellow Ford Mustang fans.  Know what that means?  Track season is almost done, and for those of us that don’t have a trailer queen, it means the cooler weather and dirty roads are sure to arrive soon enough.  What’s more, the heavy-tread shoes we are soon to wear will bring lovely dirty particles inside the Mustang cabin to cruise around with us.  If the OEM mats in your late model (S197) Ford Mustang have taken a nose dive due to weathering, then NewTakeOff might be just the place to do some early Christmas shopping.  Just recently, they announced new OEM, quality Mustang floor mats, so owners can get that “new car” feel once again.  Keep reading to get the scoop in the Press Release.

These Shaker hood systems are tried and true, keeping the Mustang coupe and Mustang GT up to par in quality, as CDC has spent numerous hours in R&D on these kits over the past several years on the first generation of S197 Ford Mustang.

After letting their latest Mustang Pace Car hit the track just days ago, Hurst Performance has decided to let loose a few goodies to flow into the aftermarket.  A nationwide distributor program will help Hurst Performance spread their latest “Hurst-Equipped” Kits which will apply to the Ford Mustang, Chevrolet Camaro, and Dodge Challenger.  Since the actual Hurst Pace Car is not slated for mass production, this is about as close to a Hurst special edition pony car as we can get.

These Hurst-Equipped packages are poised to enhance the personal & curb appeal of the Mustang (et al) by offering the Hurst touch via several means: a Hurst Shifter, Hurst Wheels (20×9 fronts & 20×10 rears), a Matte Black “AIR SPEED” rear wing, Hurst-Equipped badging, Hurst floor mats, and a Hurst windbreaker & cap via certificate redemption.  For the serious Hurst fans there is even more.  The Hurst Series 1 Kits allow a full-scale customization opportunity with Hurst/Magnaflow Stainless Steel Exhaust, Hurst/ Eibach Pro Kit, Hurst Numbered Dash Plaque, Hurst Fender Decals, and BFG-KDW Tires.

So what do you think, Mustang fans?  Is there room in the aftermarket for yet another player?
