As reported by Ford

Dearborn, Mich. - A new breed of Mustang takes center stage in a Ford ad campaign designed to attract even more sports car fans to the iconic brand. As part of the campaign, the TV ad also includes an appearance by the new DUB Edition Ford Mustang V-6, which is available this fall.

Ford will use extensive digital advertising and social media to share the Mustang V-6's strong technology story with mainstream consumers, and there is quite a story to tell - from the advanced powertrains that deliver unsurpassed horsepower and fuel economy to the 11 class-exclusive features, including SYNC®, Glass Roof, HD Radio® and MyKey(tm).

Digital advertising will target younger enthusiasts and women. All ads will ultimately direct people to the Mustang website at www.fordvehicles.com/Mustang where they will find more detailed information about the vehicle, engineering commentaries and animations that show the technology behind the engine's power and fuel economy.



The Ford Mustang Facebook page, which already has more than 450,000 fans, provides an ideal forum for sharing information about the improved capability and refinement of the 2011 Mustang - from a 12 percent stiffer chassis, upgraded brakes, suspension and steering enhancements, to sound deadening and aerodynamic improvements that all add up to a better riding, better handling and better sounding sports car.

"We have Facebook fans from all over the world, and we will keep them informed and engaged on the site in a variety of ways, including videos, Web chats with our engineers and unique promotions," said Ling. "Facebook also allows us to keep our Mustang fans informed about upcoming racing and enthusiast events."

"The television ads are designed to reach new Mustang buyers, from those who want to achieve better fuel economy and lower running costs to enthusiasts who are interested in everything the V-6 has to offer," said Patricia Piedrahita, Ford car communications manager, noting that the ads emphasize miles per gallon in a way that only Mustang can.
