The 2013 Ford Mustang

The 2013 Ford Mustang delivers more refinement and impressive specs. With newly enhanced muscular styling and chassis development, this new muscular Mustang is clearly out there to kick some asphalt.

And horsepower? Yes, there's more of that too in the beautiful 2013 GT!

Starting with an already great looking design and dramatic improvement in performance, Ford's engineers have been busy creating even more fun for the pony car enthusiast.

With improvements to the Mustang GT and the continuing development of the Boss 302, Ford's 2013 Mustangs are ready to take on all comers.

Exterior Styling Changes

The most significant changes to the 2013 Mustang design, are the more muscular front end modifications. All models, from the base V6 pony to the Boss 302 receive a more angular, substantial styling change, which immediately add to the already impressive performance forward styling.

The V6 and GT models their small chin spoilers. Both receive a slightly more aggressive and powerful hood re-design.

Along with these styling changes to the hood for all models, the impressive Ford coyote V8 powered 2013 Mustang GT models and the new Boss 302 cars, received and added and cool, new (and apparently functional) pair of intake louvers, which Ford refers to as heat extractors .

These add-ons were designed to pull heat out of the engine compartment and aid in engine cooling.

Interior Styling

Changes to the interior of the 2013 Ford Mustang are relatively minor overall, but include a few particularly memorable new additions to the Boss 302 and 2013 Boss Laguna Seca models, including a really cool display function between the round speedometer cluster on the left and tach/gas/ oil display on the right.

Yep. That's right, it's a little drag racing Christmas tree, complete with settings that allow you to record and review not only your quarter mile times, but braking and handling performance! More on this in the 2013 Boss 302 section.

To my mind, that's the kind of thing that should be on every Mustang model, if for no other reason than bragging rights.

The other significant addition, for the 2013 Mustang V6 cars, is the ability to check the option box and get a pair of the same Recaro® bucket seats, that were previously, only available on the Boss 302 and Shelby GT500 cars.

Engine and Drivetrain

Ford's Mustang V6 powered pony cars, received a power boost last year of almost 100 horsepower, bumping them to an impressive 305 horsepower while posting equally impressive gas mileage numbers (up to 31 mpg highway).

No new performance was added to the V6 powerplant, but the already hugely impressive and powerful Ford Coyote V8's, have received a further power bump, and now are up to 420 horsepower.

That's stock block, drive it everyday and scare the pants off your dear old grandmother power.

Who said the days of the factory muscle cars were over? If you drive a stick and live in an area with a lot of up hill stop signs and traffic lights, you'll be pleased to see this new option on your 2013 Ford Mustang.

Coined "hill start assist", the new feature is activated when the brake pedal is pressed and the car detects that you are on a slope.

Rather than the usual handbrake/clutch gas start, that can sometimes cause you to roll backward on a hill start, the system holds brake pressure for up to 2 seconds, allowing the driver to apply the gas and ease out the clutch.

Wouldn't be a bad thing for the automatic optioned cars either.

Increasing horsepower wasn't the priority for the second incarnation of the famous Mark Donohue Boss 202 Mustang. Using what they'd learned at the track and on the road, great effort was made to further refine and improve an already formidable package.

Chassis tuning and suspension refinements, coupled with some cool and useable new electronics make the new factory road racer even more potent.

Well, not any more! The new 2013 Mustang V6 combines the best of both worlds and finally presents a great option for those folks who do a lot of driving and still want to feel that push into the seat when you have your foot in it.
