  • Ford Mustang is sure to please at the SEMA (Specialty Equipment Market Association) show in Las Vegasthis week, where nine Mustangs will show off their performance and style
  • A Mustang GT by Ford Vehicle Personalisation uses a white and coral theme along with several Ford Custom Accessories items painted in liquid silver to give this car a look all its own. Other Mustangs show off other themes.
  • Along with customised versions of Mustang, the 2012 Mustang Boss 302 will give visitors to the Ford stand a look at the reinvented legendary road race machine from the late 1960s


Ford Motor Company is tapping the 2010 SEMA (Specialty Equipment Market Association) show in Las Vegas, Nevada, to showcase nine customised versions of Mustang, displaying the vehicles alongside the new Mustang Boss 302.

“The 2011 model year sets a new standard for Mustang, with everything from bringing back the revered 5.0-litre V8 Mustang GT to the all-aluminium 3.7-litre engine in the Mustang V6 with 305 horsepower. And it doesn’t stop for 2012, with the Mustang Boss 302 reveal and the track-ready Laguna Seca version,” said Jim Owens, Mustang brand manager. “SEMA is a great way for Ford to not only show customers what’s new for Mustang, but what they can do to make it their own Mustang.”

While the 2012 Mustang Boss 302 is sure to impress visitors at the Ford stand, a variety of Mustangs on display also will give consumers an idea of the endless possibilities for making it a one-of-a-kind pony car.

“People understand Mustang and they fall in love with the emotion of the car, but at the same time they want to bring a little of their individuality to the table,” said Melvin Betancourt, Ford design manager. “So if you’re a Mustang enthusiast looking to set your Mustang apart from others, SEMA is like going into a toy store full of inspirational imagery. At the end of the day you have a Mustang that reflects the personality of the customer’s vision.”

This Mustang GT has a look all its own

A Mustang GT by Ford Vehicle Personalisation shows what can be fashioned using Ford Custom Accessories items and some serious creativity. The exterior of the car is coated in a custom white tri-coat colour developed by Sherwin-Williams. The paint has coral undertones, a colour used throughout the car.

“This theme is a perfect fit for Mustang – it really shows off the design features inside and out that set it apart from the rest,” said Mark Conforzi, Ford Vehicle Personalisation chief designer. “This Mustang works so well because it will let the customer’s imagination run wild with just how much they can do to their car.”

Ford Custom Accessories items are used to give consumers a sense of what can be done with Mustang, and include a rear pedestal spoiler, rear quarter window louvers, side scoops and a billet grille – all covered in a concept liquid silver finish. The look is rounded out with 18-inch machined liquid silver wheels, similar to the ones standard on the California Special Mustang.

The interior of the Ford Mustang features a concept design that uses white and black Ultrafabrics material on a variety of surfaces, with inserts that resemble carbon fibre. The white material is highlighted on the seats, door inserts, steering wheel and dash appliqué. Coral accents also set the mood inside, where they are used on the steering wheel, gauge cluster, shifter knob and air vents. Interior styling also includes coral accent lighting for a unique touch.
