"This is a great opportunity to partner with Ford and offer SPEED viewers a cool and unique first look at the latest offering from a truly iconic American brand," said SPEED President Hunter Nickell, whose daily driver is a 2006 Mustang GT. "We're going to have a lot of fun with this event."
Mustang Club of America groups across the country - including Atlanta, Dallas, Houston, Tulsa, Detroit, Phoenix, Denver, Columbus, Ohio, and Tampa - will hold reveal events in local movie theaters. Guests will receive a limited-edition 1:18th scale die-cast 2010 Mustang as well as other prizes. Many locations are organizing Mustang car shows before the reveal broadcast.
"Mustang is more than just a car: It's an icon," said Fritz Wilkie, brand manager for Mustang. "Mustang Nation is a culture built on the stories and passion of more than 9 million Mustang owners. It seemed only fitting to share this exciting moment with the people who made Mustang what it is today."
Starting Wednesday, Mustang enthusiasts can go to www.the2010mustang.com for more new Mustang images, a unique 360-degree exterior view, information on features and a replay of the reveal.
The 2010 Mustang proudly builds on the car's 45-year heritage with a more aggressive, modern exterior design as well as a world-class interior. Mustang receives the latest in technology including available SYNC, voice-activated navigation and a rearview camera system.
Chassis and powertrain improvements pioneered on Ford's extensive racing and special programs have been rolled into the 2010 Mustang as well. The new pony car will deliver more power and better handling, thanks to the development work on the 2008-2009 Mustang Bullitt and lessons learned through the Ford Racing Mustang Challenge series.
