Ford Car Talk

When Ford officials said that the future of Ford Mustang will be revealed during the Detroit Auto Show, there is nothing to think about but the unveiling of the 2010 Ford Mustang GT500.

The new Ford Mustang GT 500 definitely will make a presence in the event knowing that it is the most powerful Mustang to come into production as of today.

The road bully will have a power plant similar to the 2008 GT500KR limited edition which sports a supercharged V8 5.4L engine that can leave any soul behind with its output of 540 horsepower at 6200 rpm and a torque of 510 lb-ft at 4500 rpm.

Last Tuesday, automobile giant Ford announced that the company had sold 13% of their Mazda shares. Because of the said sale, the company is now richer by $540 million.

The sale of Ford Mazda stocks also meant an important landmark in the history of the automobile industry—Ford is letting Mazda out of its reigns after twelve years of full control. Ford took over the said Japanese brand since 1979 but the company wasn’t able to immediately establish full control.

With the diminished power that Ford has now over Mazda, CEO Hisazaku Imaki immediately passed Mazda’s reigns to purchasing head Takashi Yamanouchi. The new successor was reported to have been with Mazda for over forty years.

Mazda’s spokeswoman, Yukari Hara, said that the sell off entails that Mazda has once again been a Japanese company. A report said that the Ford shares were actually bought by Mazda’s Japanese stockholders.

The most popular ford models ever begin with the legendary Model T. The Model T was the first practical car suitable for the average American. The car went about 45 mph and was only offered in the color black. About 15,500,000 models were sold just in the US. It remained the top car on the market and was sold for the equivalent of $19,000 in today’s market.

After this, the Model A was produced. Being one of the most popular ford models ever, it was greeted with a great enthusiasm after the 18 year reign of the Model T. It had a new style and was available in the station wagon design. It was available in four different colors, but not black.
