The 2010 Mustang is essentially a muscle car that performs like a sports car. From its stylish good looks, offering much curb appeal, to its greatly improved handling, this car will get your heart beating. It accomplishes all this while continuing to use many of the basic mechanical components of previous year Mustangs.

This new era of Mustang maintains the same roof as the previous ones, but that is where the similarities end. The 2010 Mustang gets a totally new body, and it is a very sexy one. Start with the relocated antenna, hidden washers, recessed indicators and add a hood with a bulge and more creases in the body and it all combines for a distinct new attractive package.

Once you climb inside you’ll be pleased to see that it is no longer rental car material. Shiny new gauges, LED lights, aluminum trim are just some of the improvements you will note in the new interior.

While maintaining the same base engines as other years of mustangs, the increased horsepower and torque will set you firmly back in your seat. A rerouted exhaust system delivers much better engine sounds in the driver’s seat.

The suspensions on the 2010 mustangs can be found on previous model years, however, in previous years you would need to go up one model range to find the same suspension as in the 2010 model. The stiffer suspension greatly improves handling and especially cornering.

The new mustang is improved in every way from the one it replaces. It not only has more visual appeal, but it out performs in every aspect its predecessors. But the really amazing aspects come in the form of the optional parts.

For those performance minded enthusiasts, check out the track pack. With the carbon plate 3. 73 diff and the stiffer suspension of the GT500, enhanced by the attention grabbing nineteen inch wheels sporting performance summer tires. These are just some of the improvements attainable by ordering the track pack.

Repositioned exhaust results in much better engine sound inside. The sport mode for the stability control convert the bumpy corners, which were the Achilles heel of the predecessors, into the strong point of the new redesigned 2010 mustang. The sport mode allows traction to be turned off, and reactivated after allowing between seven and nine degrees of slide.
