Catch a Glimpse of the 2010 Mustang: Week 4
A sportier, more-aggressive front grille and fascia lead the 2010 Mustang down the road. Slimmer headlamps that integrate the turn indicators are incorporated in a larger grille that expresses power and performance. Large twin fog lamps on the GT model further emphasize Mustang’s muscle-car DNA, which takes on a stealthy persona for the GT with dark headlamp bezels and grille surrounds. Also on the GT, the pony badge is finished in dark chrome for the first time. The pony itself received a makeover and is a more chiseled and defined interpretation of the American icon, galloping proudly on the front grille.
"We want people to unequivocally know this is a Mustang when they see it," said Douglas Gaffka, Chief Designer, 2010 Mustang. "The stronger, more-muscular front end of the 2010 Mustang does just that.”
Brute strength can be beautiful as well, however. The sculpted, flowing lines convey style and grace as well as raw power, underscoring Mustang's continuing mantra of Fast, Fun and Affordable.
"The 2010 Mustang has a sculpted, crafted look," said George Saridakis, Design Manager, 2010 Mustang. "The flowing lines are in keeping with Mustang's heritage and DNA. It conveys the sense and attitude of power and performance."
