Ford Mustang Exotica Hides an Aston Martin Vanquish V12 Under its Hood [with Video]

We’re pretty sure that, during the time Aston Martin was under the ownership of Ford, the thought of stuffing an exotic V12 powerplant under the bonnet of a Mustang must have crossed the mind of a few company engineers.
And while we never saw something of the sort officially from Ford, an independent custom shop actually realized the idea with the 2005 Ford Mustang 'Vanquishd' show car that was presented at the 2006 SEMA aftermarket gathering.
Built by Western Motorsports, this one-of-a-kind Mustang gets a 6.0-liter V12 engine with 600 ponies from a 2001 Aston Martin Vanquish. Power is sent to the chunky rear wheels through a 6 speed manual Tremec T-56 transmission.

Ford Asks: What Should the Focus EV Sound Like?

So the all-electric Ford Focus EV is landing stateside in late 2011 to snub its nose at the likes of the Nissan LEAF and Mitsubishi i MiEV with its utterly conventional name that’s not even an acronym.
Now Ford is asking its most important shareholders (the general public) what the Focus EV should sound like, as there are members of the world community that think silent cars are a danger to the blind and the deaf.

Sensual Saleen Mustang Video Ad

This TV spot from Texan Ford dealer “Middlekauff” is ineptly entitled “Sex Sells Saleen.” To be honest, we don’t know for sure whether or not the advert actually aired on any TV stations -our readers can help us on this one. Although we liked the girls that participated in the ad, we could have done without the cuts that run throughout the whole duration of the video. See the advert right after the jump

Ad: Ford Focus Turned Into Musical Instruments!

In Ford’s latest European advertising campaign, Hollywood film composer Craig Richey and New York sound designer Bill Milbrodt took apart a brand-new Focus and assembled with the parts 31 different musical instruments. Each instrument has a name that instantly identified its origins, such as the Transmission Case Cello-Dulcimer, Clutch Guitar, Rear Suspension Spike Fiddle, Fender Bass, Hatchback Kick Drum, Handheld Gear Tambourine and Door Harp. –Check out the video right after the jump












“When we got it to the mechanics shop, it had less than a mile on the clock. We took the doors and fenders off, but we had the body shell intact and we later cut out of that the parts we wanted,” said Bill Milbrodt.

Videos: Ford Trucks Are Built Tough So Only True Men Allowed

In Ford’s new F-Series viral campaign, “Built Ford Tough” (BFT) is a mantra for truck and owner alike, meaning only true men can drive a Ford truck. But what’s the definition of a man? While in our books that might be someone who honors his words or never betrays his beliefs, according to Ford, an (F-series) man is someone who doesn’t carry roller luggage, eat meat substitutes or drink Starbucks coffee…

Dying way of thinking for a dying category of vehicles if you ask us, but nevertheless, we must say that we enjoyed all three videos of the BFT campaign even if we’ll never meet the standards of an F-Series man. All three clips show BFT cops searching for Ford truck owners that have broken one of the F-Series' "man laws".

Ford F-Series 10 Amendments

1. NO ROLLER LUGGAGE
2. NO SCOOTERS
3. NO PUNY DOGS
4. NO MEAT SUBSTITUTES
5. NO PINK SHIRTS
6. NO FANCY COFFEE
7. NO FANNY PACKS
8. NO CUTESY CELL PHONE RINGS
9. NO MANICURES
10. NO HAIR PRODUCTS

We finally managed to find a video of the 1929 Ford Model A with the 250 HP rally-bred 2.0-liter Cosworth engine that we first told you about a couple of days ago (click here). And boy does this fully restored classic sound angry! Created by the Mäkelä Auto-Tuning company (MAT) that’s based in Finland, this one-of-a-kind retro sleeper can go from naught to 62 mph (100 km/h) in a mere 5,0 sec while it can reach -if you dare that is, a top speed of 124 mph or 200 km/h. -Follow the jump for the video

Video: 2008 Ford Mustang Dream Commercial

According to Ford, every man dreams of owning a Mustang at some point in his life. Too bad for the chap in ad that’s performing power-slides and burnouts in the ’08 Mustang, that he’s literally dreaming about it. At least he ends up with both the car and a gal in the end. –Video after the jump

Video: 2008 Knight Rider Official Teaser Trailer

NBC aired the first official teaser trailer of the new Knight Rider TV movie during the Sunday Night Football show. Even though we missed out on it, the guys at Knight Rider Online managed to capture the 15 seconds long trailer and upload the short video on Youtube. Nothing special since we’ve already seen the new Shelby Mustang GT500 KR based KITT (SEE HERE) but we do get the chance to hear for the first time the synthesized voice of Will Arnett saying, "Hello Mike."

Video: Ford Verve Concept

Deemed as one the most interesting concepts of this year’s Frankfurt Show, the Verve is what we all wish that next year’s production version of the Fiesta will look like. Of course, we’ll probably be like “duh” in 2008 when Ford takes the wraps of the new Fiesta covered in semi-colored bumpers and 14-inch wheels, but what else is new. In this official video, Ford Europe’s head of design, Martin Smith and his team, explain the philosophy behind the creation of the Verve Concept.

Shelby’s 2008 GT500 Super Snake not only looks bad but it also sounds bad –better make that triple bad. While we might of missed the Woodward Dream Cruise, thanks to an onlooker a with a cell-phone (?) video cam at hand, we too can get the chance to see and most importantly, hear Shelby’s slithering 725Hp Super Snake rumble like a 1,000lb lion getting ready to attack.
