This icon of the automotive industry is now well into its mid-forties – but it’s still running strong! Just a few small changes to note for 2012 (colour, equipment). The V6 coupe is an intriguing base model, but the real Mustang die-hards will flock to the GT or the Boss, which delivers 444 hp! The V6 and GT convertibles are also still available, much to the delight of all!
